    Default Frugal Friday, January 20, 2012

    Exercised to 40 minutes inside. Baked a bunch of chicken legs. Turned out ok. Did some straightening up, will take the trash out later today. Still need to pick up glasses and stop by CVS. Want to get everything done today since tomorrow it will be snow and rain. Hard to believe since the sun is shinning so brightly today. Just glad I can get everything done today and stay in tomorrow.

    Hope everyone has a fun and frugal day today.

    Let's see:

    chicken in crock pot since 11 this morning. House smells so good.
    folded 3 loads of laundry.
    dropped off and picked up daughter from school.
    Taught the other kids their lessons for the day (home schooling mom here)

    still need to make a grocery list, take recyclables out, and I think something else but for the life of me cannot remember...

    Today was a lot better in terms of the weather, so I got out and hit the gym!

    Another hour workout in the books and I felt awesome. Picked up a few items from Zellers today: some cough medicine, chap stick, a can of tuna fish for lunch and a package of stash cookies for me. Other than that, I priced out some items and did some window shopping.

    Came home, read a little and took a nap. Baking some potatoes in the oven right now and planning on making soup out of them. It's Friday, so no yoga tonight (DH and I are both thinking that every night is a bit much for us) and it's looking like a relaxation night for the entire family.
    Wife to DH since 10/31/2002!

    Great day today - snow day - office closed early, so I got home and got to catch up on some of my taped shows, then cleaned main bathroom and wiped down the desk, wiped around a couple of light switches. It's sort of late, but I'm wide awake and energized, think I might make a couple of loaves of apple bread - one for me and one for friend I'm going to visit tomorrow.
    Goals:
    Lose 25 lbs (exercise at least 3 times/wk/eat healthy)

    One new recipe a week
    Prep for zombie apocalypse
