In the process of cleaning up broken links and consolidating categories, I discovered that I got off track in numbering my daily $$ posts.  Turns out I have two different Day 67’s.  I’m not going to go in and renumber everything — that might end up breaking more links or causing unforseen confusion down the road.  I’ll simply make the correction and move on — so tomorrow’s post will be Day 77 and Day 76 will forever be missing

Hi everyone!  Sorry for the hassles I might have caused today.  Moving a blog is rather complicated and stressful!

So Suburban Wife’s Daily Dollar Diary has a new home!  What do you think?

Oh, and before I forget — don’t forget to bookmark my new address

I’m still reorganizing and editing my new theme — expect to see small changes here and there over the course of the next week or so.  And please be patient with me if (or I should say, when) things go wonky — I’ll get things back to working again as soon as possible.

I debated the move for about two weeks and it wasn’t an easy decision — and one I hope I don’t come to regret.  But as I’ve read more about blogging and Blogger in general, I decided that a move was inevitable and that maybe the best time to take the plunge was when the blog was relatively new.

The worst part of the heavy lifting work is done but I still have to:

• locate and fix broken links within my posts
• publish my about me page
• fine-tune the theme
• contact my blogging friends with my new address
• get my blogroll back up
• finish thinning down my categories

I sure would welcome any feedback you’d be willing to offer about the move in general, the theme, my blog, my writing style, my spending habits, my children’s names, etc.

FedEx — $17.80
Shipping for a big box of clothes I sold on eBay to a single bidder.  This bill was a bit stale — I let it sit because FedEx lost the box!  My buyer was very upset because it was stuffed full of Hanna Andersson shirts, Levi’s jeans, and Timberland Gore-Tex hiking boots.  Anyway, FedEx finally claimed the package lost.  I issued a Paypal refund to the buyer and now await my refund from FedEx.  They’d better not lost that.

 Daughter’s School — $300.00
I’ve been meaning to stock up on grocery cards again for almost two weeks but kept forgetting to call during school hours.  I’d always think of it about 1/2-hour after dismissal.  Today being the last day before school let out for a week, I finally remembered.  I bought two $100 Kroger cards and one $100 Vitamin Cottage card.  Now I can do some stocking up and get my much-needed holiday baking supplies while also feeling good about having vicariously donated $15 to the school’s operating fund.
