Hurray for me, sort of, again! I have missed the sale at my favorite store, and I am still alive! Hurray! I kept myself busy yesterday with the gym, the Web, house organizing efforts, and spending time with my SO.

I did buy my SO a little microwave oven since his burned out and took him out to a reasonable dinner.(He likes low-key for his birthday, I like all the hoo-ha!.....My budget did not allow for hoo-ha.) We were very happy.

Today I am going to continue to take care of myself. I do have a spending thing pulling at me, and I am tying to deal with it. I am going to continue working on the same things I did yesterday. I also have the taxes to get started. There is no lack to THINGS TO DO HERE!!! I haven't been thru the newspaper yet either.

I have a dinner I have to go to next weekend, about $25 to go. I don't have anything else YET I know of coming up in the near future to save for...but gotta keep saving.

I just found out I have to convert a retirement account to a new investment service...I absolutely refuse to cash it in....That's my RETIREMENT MONEY...it is not a huge sum, but it is not for spending until I am 65!!!!!!!!! Or maybe 70?

Have a great Sunday! Littlesbigs

You know, I figured out that if I made another coffee cake that I wouldn't need to go to the coffee shop near where my spending tempation is.....so another coffee cake is in the oven, and I have a huge assortment of tea here at home to enjoy with it.....I do not need to spend the gas nor the $4 I'd spend out.....I have it all here at home already...and I have a journal to write in sitting in my own livingroom, and I don't feel like getting dressed except for clothes for the gym. I'm really happy to come to this point today! I have the radio going, laundry going.....need to find my 3 hole punch so I can put the paperwork away......I will go outside later this afternoon to go to the gym, maybe out for a short walk inthe neighborhood.....THIS is what life is all about!

.....Then this evening, I'll watch all those movie stars parade around and get awards for movies I didn't see this year...............MAYBE I'll amuse myself by putting on a great rhimestone/diamondy necklace I have with my pajamas so I "fit in" with the crowd, LOL! More tea and coffee cake!

Life is good. I don't have to spend today. Littlesbigs
