$$: Dec 9 — Recycling on the Cheap
Total Spent Today: $84.48
The Home Depot — $47.94
Our “waste management” company recently announced that they were greatly expanding the list of recyclable materials they’d collect. This, combined with the fact that they went “single stream” a while ago and the fact that they pick up recyclables only every other week means that our old recycling tub just [...]
$$: 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 [...]
$$: Sleep Study edition
Total Spent Today: $228.48
I spent last night in the local hospital’s sleep lab. The hope, now that my thyroid has been completely removed and my throat (for the most part) healed from the surgery, was that I’d no longer suffer from obstructive sleep apnea.
Let me assure you, there is very little sleep done during a “sleep” study. If [...]
$$: 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 [...]
$$: Charity plus Gas Receipts
Total Spent Today: $120.67
Church — $50.00
It’s been a while since I made an offering at church so I wrote a larger-than-usual check this morning.
Plus, The Daughter finally turned in three old gas receipts:
Safeway — $28.56 (she pumped 10.313 gallons @ $2.769/gallon) on 10/21/08
Farm Crest — $21.57 (she pumped 10.278 gallons @ $2.099/gallon) on 11/11/08
Western Convenience — $20.54 (she [...]
$$: Cases of Lemonade & Fuel
Total Spent Today: $237.61
Not only am I SWI (shopping while impaired) but I’m also sick. I’ve completely lost my voice, my throat is killing me, and I ache! Boy do I ache.
So the last thing I felt like doing was leaving the house to go shopping. Too bad for me we were completely out of milk. Running out [...]
$$: Chocolate Milk, Chocolate Candy & Snow Pants, etc.
The Husband and The Daughter did a “driving-day” switch (DD usually drives herself to school on M, W, & F; DH gets the other car on those day; I get nothing) so I had a car at my disposal. Thus, I got some errands done.
Kwal Paints — $25.16
I lied. There’s no way I’m going to [...]
