Still cooking

May 4th, 2006 at 05:32 am

Still have been cooking dinner at home. The girls have been very (ahem) accepting of our "budget" changes and have'nt been whining for the wannas too much. I did treat them to Fritzs (frozen custard) last night. With hubby out of town I have been dragging them everywhere with me and they are really good (except for the sibiling squabble!)
The bills have been paid (online, saves postage!) and the budget is coming along beautifully. We have too much money left over, but a lot of month ahead of us. Pray I can control it and keep it even!
Saved $7 in coupons at Shop n Save and only spent $38 at Aldis. Would have spent less, but had to pick up some things for school for DD1.
Hubby home, no more discussion about full time work. I will keep looking around, but half-heartedly. Maybe I'll tell him I'll do day care out of the house again, like I did when the kids were little. Lots of ladies in the neighborhood do it. It used to drive him crazy! That would probably keep him quiet for a while, so we can see how the budgeting goes. I also picked up a few more hours at job #1 for this month.

    Ever heard of the frugal food formula? You seem to be practicing it well.
