Day 117: Another No-Spend Day

It snowed and snowed and snowed.  All day long.  We’ve run out of milk, choco­late milk, and tor­tillas — but none of those were worth going out into the snow and cold for.

Well, I really wanted milk and might have been will­ing to brave the snow and cold to go get some.  But I def­i­nitely didn’t want milk bad enough to dig out the dri­ve­way and then brave the snowy, unplowed streets filled with Cal­i­for­nia trans­plants idiot dri­vers.

In the end, I had to dig out the dri­ve­way tonight any­way because The Hus­band has to get his #1 son and fam­ily to the air­port for a morn­ing flight.

I sus­pect that I’ll end my string of no-spend days tomor­row.  We need gro­ceries.  The Son needs to get to the bank so he can deposit all of that glo­ri­ous cash he got for Christ­mas (three peo­ple heeded his request for cash for his sav­ings account instead of gift cards).  Plus the kids and I want to go see the new National Trea­sure movie.

Part of me wishes we’d get hit with another big storm so I could rack up another no-spend day  ;-)

    I read your blog reg­u­larly … I really admire your com­mit­ment. I’m hop­ing to at least track what I spend in 2008, even if it’s not a con­certed effort to “not spend.” Thanks for inspir­ing me!
