$$: Meat and Potatoes
Ugh. Friday’s are tough because The Daughter gets one car and The Husband and I have to share the second one but we both have busy schedules because The Son’s in class on Friday and I volunteer.
Whole Foods — $11.06
2.83# organic russet potatoes — $2.80
@ 3# ground turkey thigh — $8.10
The plan is to make [...]
$$: Dec 8 - Medical Expenses and Christmas Gifts
Total Spent Today: $324.01
Ugh. Still trying to catch up on my Daily Dollar postings.
Physical Therapy — $25.00
Another physical therapy session for The Son. His range of mobility continues to improve; he’s so very close to full range. Actually, the therapist says he has an extended range of mobility — one that a baseball pitcher would envy. For years [...]
$$: Dec 5 - Baby, It’s Cold Inside
Total Spent Today: $82.27
Murphy showed up today and as we all know, visits from Murphy can be expensive.
Our portable electric heater broke. While I was using it. In the basement. It was cold outside. It was warm in the basement until the heater broke.
Honestly, I felt betrayed. The malfunction was completely unexpected. The heater wasn’t all that old. [...]
$$: Gas in the Tank
Total Spent Today: $27.44
Safeway — $27.44
On the way home from church today, the kids and I stopped to tank up The Tank. I pumped 16.639 gallons at an amazing $1.649 per gallon. The odometer read 135,584.
I didn’t write a weekly offering check at church this morning because I forgot my checkbook.

$$: Sleep Study edition
Total Spent Today: $228.48
I spent last night in the local hospital’s sleep lab. The hope, now that my thyroid has been completely removed and my throat (for the most part) healed from the surgery, was that I’d no longer suffer from obstructive sleep apnea.
Let me assure you, there is very little sleep done during a “sleep” study. If [...]
$$: Coyote Sighting Edition
Total Spent Today: $1,954.94
A coyote crossed the road in front of me this morning as it traveled from one section of greenbelt to another. I can’t remember ever being that close to a coyote before and seeing it there, in the middle of an upscale suburban development, was a glorious testament to the will and drive to survive [...]
$$: Charity plus Gas Receipts
Total Spent Today: $120.67
Church — $50.00
It’s been a while since I made an offering at church so I wrote a larger-than-usual check this morning.
Plus, The Daughter finally turned in three old gas receipts:
Safeway — $28.56 (she pumped 10.313 gallons @ $2.769/gallon) on 10/21/08
Farm Crest — $21.57 (she pumped 10.278 gallons @ $2.099/gallon) on 11/11/08
