$$: Allowance, Fuel, Dining, & Hot Date!
A busy, busy day with but with nothing more than the regular, expected expenditures of a normal day.
Had an appointment with a roofer, logged a couple of volunteer hours at The Son’s homeschool co-op program, took The Son to a corn-maze outing with some friends, and attended the ballet with The Son. Lots of driving [...]

Total Spent Today: $220.86
Audition — $15.00
The Son’s teacher and I convinced him to audition in hopes of being moved to the next level in his community orchestra. I fear he won’t be advanced but I’m glad he had this experience — the work of preparing a piece and the agony of auditioning. In other news, [...]

Day 203: Duct Tape, Parking, Food, Easter, Clothes
Today was just another day in the life of a Suburban Wife. My sister decided at 9:30 in the morning that her son (The Nephew) simply had to fly home today because she simply couldn’t bear to not have him home for Easter. And she’s not even a Christian. [Grow up!] The kids and I [...]
Day 124: Gifts and Office/School Supplies
Today involved a ton of running around — many, many miles on the car and mucho time spent sitting on my ever-expanding rear-end. Days like these leave me feeling exhausted and frustrated.
After practice at noon, we (my mom, The Daughter, and I) stopped by Office Depot where I spent $24.29. I needed an expandable check [...]
