    Default Thrifty Thursday July 22, 2010

    What does your thrifty Thursday look like?

    Mine started with an investment in mental and physical health when I had a massage first thing this morning. Then I went to the pool to exercise and relax. Now I am back to reality!!

    Need to do 2 loads of laundry
    Clean up the office side of the sunroom
    Work on monthly finances
    Write real letters to friends
    Finish packing box for DD
    Sew microwave mini potholders

    Have a great Thursday everyone!!

    So the first thing I finished was not even on this list!!

    I transplanted all but two of my seedlings and moved all of my plants to the backyard!! For some reason that has left me a little tired - it may have been from carrying everything up and down stairs - but a few minutes of rest - perhpas some lunch and I shall be good to go again!!

    I paid bills and created a small budget for back to school shopping. Made some appointments for next week on my day off. We went and helped out a friend with some yard work and they bought us pizza as a thank you. So, no money spent (besides bills) and we had dinner "out" lol

    DS: 7am football weightlifting/workout

    DD: 8:30 am went to pick up transcript from the Chemistry class she took over the summer but it wasn't ready. (She got an A and can now take AP Chemistry this school year - yay!!!)

    DD: 9am stopped by the high school to meet the new principal. Also, met with the activities director because she has to write a welcome letter to the student body to go in the handbook.

    DD: 3pm picked up her BFF and went to DD's last volleyball game for the summer league.

    DD and BFF: 6:30 pm dropped them off @ minor league baseball game so they could have a little fun.

    In between picking up and dropping off everyone I took a nap, DH and I went to the grocery store and finally we cooked some dinner.
