Been a busy month
August 26th, 2008 at 08:11 pmI've had a fairly busy month, so I haven't been blogging like I like to. Finances were OK, but I went on a shopping binge at Wal-Mart the other day and spent a bit. $16 on new sneakers (as opposed to the $80s I spent the last time I bought sneakers three years ago), $15 on 2 new cute t-shirts (first time I have bought clothes for me in months, and I couldn't pass these up) $7 for a new Brita filter, $2 for black spray paint to repaint the bookcase in our bedroom, and a few toiletries. Not too amd, since a few years ago my splurges tended to be a couple hundred bucks, but still more than I could afford.
Today I hit the library. I got a pass for discount tix to the aquarium next week, plus a new book on MS. I ended up paying $1.70 in late fees from last time I was there, but I also found a quarter on the ground.
I'm hoping the rest of the month is low spending (no spending would be better!). I want to pick up a few binders from Staples for a project I am working on, and I need some refills on my meds, but other than that, it should be low finances.
