A (qualified) No-Spend Day

By Suburban Wife | Published: September 1, 2009
Ah!  The plea­sures of not spend­ing money. Of course, I’m talk­ing specif­i­cally about money com­ing out of my wal­let — not the money I saw The Hus­band shell out right in front of me. Well, come to think of it, I guess I did spend some money.  I trans­ferred $42.00 this morn­ing from my check­ing account into The Daughter’s. Being [...]

One Purchase, One Expense — Both Huge

By Suburban Wife | Published: January 21, 2009
I hope every­one took some time yes­ter­day to watch his­tory being made.  I kept the TV on prac­ti­cally all day watch­ing, and then just lis­ten­ing, to the day’s events unfold. The Son decided to miss part of his Span­ish class in order to be able to watch Barack Obama take the oath of office, live, as [...]

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

By Suburban Wife | Published: November 25, 2008
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.
