Dh won the NCAA pool at work!
Yeah! Not a lot of people participated, but he won! He's bringing home $70 tonight! (That's already minus the $10 he put in.) What to do with the money? What to do???

I have no idea, right now, what we'll do with it. Knowing us, we'll probably just divide it in half, and put it in our wallets where it will sit for weeks. (We were down to $5 each for the past few weeks.) Of course, we haven't eaten out in a long time...maybe we'll treat ourselves!

Well, we're going to dinner at the diner tonight. It was really nice outside after school, so instead of making the kids play inside while I made dinner, I went on a long walk with them to the park in the next town over. (about an hour walk total) The diner is pretty cheap, so the rest of the money we'll keep in our wallets in case of an emergency need for cash. Nothing big, but nice to have!
