Thrifty Tuesday

**justjenn** · 09-10-2002, 07:27 AM

Good Morning Ladies! I feel soooo good this morning! I actually got a great night of sleep. I feel like tackling the day.

$2 spent today. Not a very frugal $2, because dh is going to buy a sandwich for his lunch on his way to work, but I'm not going to stress about it. lol

I am going in to work early today. A friend asked me to change shifts with her today, and I gladly decided to. I didn't tell dh. I want it to be a surprise when I pull in the drive this evening. Because we both work so much, we take any chance we can get to see each other.

My list for the day:
make bed
laundry
pick up
clean cabinets out
dust
sweep
mop

Have a great day ladies!

Good morning everyone. I had a great nights sleep also.

Today I plan on:

- not spending any money
- finishing the garden. Got all the corn in yesterday and a few of the tomato plants pulled out. Hopefully I can get most of the carrots in today.
- will fold clothes I washed yesterday and do the last load today.
- need to bake bread again

- working on quilt still. Its a slow process hand quilting, but I'd working to get it done by the weekend. Extra money always comes in handy.

Hope you all have a great day.
