$$: Food, Tuition, and Cell Phones
Total Spent Today: $3,146.52
I enjoyed a nice quiet morning. The Son and I both slept in and then watched disc 6 of X-Files, Season 4 (ah, the joys of homeschooling). I did laundry, did some work, and some paperwork. The Son cleaned the kitchen.
This afternoon The Husband came home and together he and I drove into town for [...]
$$: Groceries, an Odwalla, & “Harvey”
The painter showed up with her crew at 7:30 this morning. Must have been 7 or 8 guys. We confirmed the colors and where they would all go. Then she took off, they got to work, and I was stuck home all day answering little questions here and there and basically just holding down the [...]
$$: Groceries, Meds, Tests, & Pizza
I’m still not driving though I feel myself improving by leaps and bounds and the Vicodin-induced fog is definitely lifting (my last pill-popping session was the 1/2 a Vicodin I took on Saturday night). And when I’m not driving, I’m generally not spending. Interesting correlation, that.
The Husband came back from the office to convey The [...]
Day 258: Activities
Baseball Coach — $67.00
This check covers two baseball-related activities. First is The Son’s share of a tournament fee. I can’t remember exactly what the date of the tournament is but it should be a little more fun than the last one because they don’t allow any “ringer” tournament-only teams to come in a make themselves [...]

Day 221: Eye Exams, Eye Glasses, School Fees, Dining, and Groceries
Ugh. I had a busy, expensive day today.
School Fees — $75.00
The Son and I finally got around to driving up to the main campus of the county-supported homeschool co-op program that he’ll be attending next year. We had to turn in his registration materials, his class requests for next year, and some fees. The breakdown of [...]
Day 220: Gas, CPAP Supplies, Theater Ticket, and Dining
Apria Healthcare — $98.49
I had to pay the full price of my recent order of CPAP equipment(new mask, hose, and filters) because we haven’t satisfied our deductible yet. Within the space of a few days we received two invoices from Apria — the first for $24.24. The second invoice was for $97.32. Both invoices itemized exactly the same items. When I [...]
