Labor Day

So today was Labor Day. A three day weekend, but still not enough. I do not want to go to work tomorrow! I'm hoping to put in 5 hours a day for the rest of the week so that I can get my usual 20 even though I took today off.

We spent money on groceries today. $14.83 on lunch and $23.99 on dinner. I need to get a handle on groceries this month or my measly $500.00 budget isn't going to last.

Ron also went to Home Depot today. He ordered the window for our bedroom and the window for our bathroom. Woot! He got a bonus a little while back of about $1,100 so we are going to use that for doing the windows. I'm going to do a running total of the bonus money on the side. He also bought herbicide and insecticide. That will come out of the house fund. So here we are:

Gymnastics $ 30.00
Weight Watchers $ 39.95
Hot Off the Press $ 35.74
Grocery Game $ 10.00
Groceries $ 461.18

I've also added an item to this list. The last one called DH Misc. Last month, we budgeted $400.00 for Ron to do some things he needed to do. He didn't use $161.68 so I've carried it over.
