Close Week

Okay - so I am closing my first week in January. It didn't end up being a bad week at all. (with the exception of dd being sick)

Grocery to date - $66.27
Misc - $14 (on friday I purchased a few little things ~ $3 at Hallmark for valentine's for dd school, $4 at Michaels for red lights on clearance that DD & I will use for decorating for Valentine's Day and $7 at Five Below for toothbrushes & a little surprise for DD for feeling better)
Gym - I have gone 3 times - trying to plan to go today after our family ski morning (but if I don't, I will count my skiing as my exercise for the day)

So far this week there was no OT - DH said that they worked a bit of it, but he was the very last person on the list. He did tell me that will put him number 1 starting on Wednesday - so he thinks that he may get one in next week & then maybe one the following week --- that will go straight to our Citi Card... still pushing to pay it off by the end of this month... it is going to be tough, but I have to try!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend! How did your first week turn out???

1st week went well. I stayed away from all cafeteria/coffee shop purchases. Had a birthday lunch to attend which cost me some $$ and yesterday went out with the family and spent $$ at the food court mall. Definitely a huge improvement from last year's weekly spending.

Not a bad week at all and you are early for valentines. I need to take a page out of your book in being prepared.

I hope DD is feeling much better by now and that she fully recovers soon.

I didn't have a bad week myself.

I keep forgetting to mention this but I love the new look of your blog! My first week went well if you don't count the flood and I don't as it was an EMERGENCY - other than that I kept spending at a minimum.
Congrats of sticking with the exercise!
