Day 256: Dining & a Book

Wild Oats — $8.42 I spent nearly 2 hours sit­ting and wait­ing for the kids I was sup­posed to trans­port from the off-site the­ater where they’re per­form­ing their school play back to school.  On the way back to school, we stopped at Wild Oats for snacks (and next-class avoid­ance).  I bought myself an avo­cado sushi tray [...]

Day 229: Groceries, another Lampshade, a Genie, and more

Total spent today:  $405.14 Okay, ladies.  Are your hus­bands impos­si­ble to shop for?  I really want to know.

Day 179: Gas, Gifts, & More

Not to sound like a bro­ken record, but it’s been a long day.  And did I men­tion, I’ve been sick?  No, not just sick.  I mean sick. Really sick.  Ill. We all got up at 6am to cel­e­brate The Daughter’s 16th birth­day.  It was so fun to give her gifts she hadn’t expected.  It was really [...]
