I'm two days in to the low spend week. All is going as planned. Yesterday was a No Spend Day. Today, we paid DS2's preschool tuition bill, and spent about $110 on groceries. Tomorrow and Thursday should be NSDs too. Friday, I have to bring a treat to school, and because a kid in DS2's class is severely and deathly allergic to everything, we have to go to a special bakery and buy special items that cost an arm and a leg. Ugh. Oh well. If it keeps a kid alive another day, the cost is worth it right?
We donated a three big boxes to Goodwill today, so the clearing out goals are being met. Hopefully we can clear more out this week.
Tomorrow, the plan is to take the kids to play with their friends at the park, and to work in the garden until dinnertime.
I picked what will probably be close to the last round of tomatoes. Not enough to can, so I'll process and freeze them. I also picked a basket of hot peppers, which I will can raw in hot vinegar.
The season is winding down, but then not really. I still have a ton of fall cleaning up and prep work that will aid in getting next season off to a good start!
The work never ends.
The kids and I decorated for Halloween today. They love it. They even waited by the door to yell Boo at DH when he came home.
