$$: Christmas Shipping & Shopping
Total Spent Today: $166.08
I had the car today and had to take The Son into the city for a school activity so I took the opportunity to get some Christmas errands done. It was a very productive day.
Apple — $48.42
During my last One-to-One session, I mentioned my database woes (currently using Access but want to move everything to [...]
$$: 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 [...]
$$: Dec 9 — Recycling on the Cheap
Total Spent Today: $84.48
The Home Depot — $47.94
Our “waste management” company recently announced that they were greatly expanding the list of recyclable materials they’d collect. This, combined with the fact that they went “single stream” a while ago and the fact that they pick up recyclables only every other week means that our old recycling tub just [...]
$$: 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 [...]
Home Economics Ingenuity 101 - Re-purposing
In case you haven’t figured it out yet, my moniker of choice, Suburban Wife, is a little poke of fun at myself. On the surface, I am very much a suburban wife. We live in the ‘burbs and I’m a wife. Not only that — despite the fact that I’m employed full-time, [...]
$$: Dec 7 - Pool Fees
Total Spent Today: $140.00
Today was a no-direct-spending day. It was a quiet, stay-at-home (other than church, of course) day. I didn’t spend any money directly but I did receive an email this evening to confirm that my credit card had been charged for The Daughter’s pool fees this month.
Swim Team — $140.00

$$: Dec 3 - Bargain Christmas Shopping for The Daughter
Total Spent Today: $56.82
Dick’s Sporting Goods — $59.49
For some time now, the Daughter has had a pair of boots on her clothing wish-list. A couple of weeks ago she moved those boots from her out-of-my-own-clothing-budget list over to my what-do-the-kids-want-for-Christmas gift suggestion list.
It seemed like a reasonable request to me — especially since the only [...]
