    Default Thrifty Thursday, 8/5/2010

    Today I'll be headed in to work, eating lunch at home, and getting a quick trim on my hair at 5 pm (first in over 6 months). Dinner will be something here at the house, and since today's payday, I'll also make time to pay a few bills online. Depending on what time DH is home, I will also go for a walk and maybe do some toning exercises for my arms.

    ~Today I'm baking and sewing.
    I have hamburger and sub rolls to make as well as something sweet to put in the freezer for DH's lunches.
    I have a tote and a half of started/waiting sewing projects to work on but I don't know which ones I'll be interested in today.
    The kids have Bible School tonight. DH and I will be working in their room again while they're out of the house. We're either painting trim or laying the floor.
    Other than that we'll just try to stay cool. It's going to be very hot today and I just want to veg out in the AC!~

    Not so thrifty today.

    Had the Jeep inspection and car tags. Went grocery shopping for a few things and took the kids school supply shopping. 150.00 poorer.

    Made dinner and that was about it.
