    Default Tightwad Tuesday 3/9

    Good Tuesday morning to all of you. I just finished my breakfast and talking to DH on the phone. He's working nights and he wants to meet me when I get to work to discuss something, which means his son wants a handout of some sort since he called here last night and DH said he called him twice. I don't know what he wants but I'm already shaking my head NO. Ok, I'm done ranting here. I need to put a load of clothes in the washer, take my vitamin and start the car to get rid of the frost before I take off. I need to pick up my meds after work, fix dinner, do dishes, finish the load of clothes, straighten frontroom and do some reading. Have a great day everyone.

    I'm working right now. Later I am doing a load of dishes/laundry. Going grocery shopping later.

    I still don't have any clue what to make for dinner. =D

    Mmmmm, girl scout cookies for breakfast! Tee hee..

    Well, it's back to work I go! I need to after my shopping spree at Costco and Walmart yesterday. Needless to say, I should be good on groceries for a LONG time!

    After work I need to put away laundry, clean out my pantry and fridge, and hang my new curtains in my bedroom.

    Have a great Tuesday!

    I always forget about these daily threads and its such a good motivator to write down all the little things you do every day that save you money.

    Today is a NO SPEND day for me. I have lunches and dinners already cooked for the week, just need to reheat. saves money and time!

    have a great day!

    As usual, I got up, had my coffee, packed my orders, put them out for the mailman, and have been cleaning house. We are going to a Meet and Greet at a nearby restaurant with a motorcycle group - free food and 1/2 priced drinks.

    Not having to cook - priceless!

    Just checking in before I head off to school. DH is still sick in bed - poor guy - another lost day for him - hope he stays in bed all day and just rests.

    Today I must call and reschedule my hair cut since I had to reschedule a Dr's appt. in that slot. Have a meeting after school for a potential new student. Tonight I need to step up the house cleaning for our guests this weekend - that really took a hit as DH and I take turns getting sick - ugh!!

    Right now (now that I've finished my coffee!!) need to get breakfast, grab lunch, do my hair, take vitamins and meds, bring the oranges in from the car and take off for school.

    Have a great day everyone!! I personally think that GS cookies make a great breakfast - have you tried the cranberry ones yet - yummy!!

    Got the MBR cleaned, the garage swept out, soaps and spices refilled, updated the shopping list, put away the baby clothes and cleaned the dining room. DS1 is at orientation - so proud of him. Still need to clean the first floor bathroom and check my FlyLady deep clean checklist.
    Dinner will be potato soup.

    I'm home with a sick little boy today, so I'm just going to hang out and relax with him! Not often that I get to have a tuesday off! Probably do some stuff around the house, like dishes and dinner and stuff, but other than that, I plan to enjoy the day off! The sun is shining and it's beautiful out, although I'll just enjoy it by looking out the window!

    So far I've done 2 loads of laundry, picked up the taxes from the accountant, made breakfast and lunch and washed up the dishes. Also I'm trying to catch up on my reading this afternoon.

    Default Tuesday, 3/9

    The day went by so fast.
    I did online weekly credit card payments this morning.
    8 hrs of office work - got tons of paperwork filed away.
    I need to relax this evening.
