Miserable Monday for me! LOL

Yesterday I noticed I made a boo-boo in the checkbook and we were going to become overdrawn! DH and I scrounged all cash we had and even took coins to Coinstar and were able to deposit enough cash into our account to keep it from kicking into overdraft protection.

I hate that feeling! I have never done anything like this since I was about 19. I need to start balancing the checkbook everyday now.

Other than that I am just tired. I need to get out an exercise so I am not so tired all the time.

Well, I better get back to work. Have a great day!

B - Donut, Fruit
L - Ravioli, Pudding
D - Meatballs, Mashed Potatoes, Green Beans
