Spent $10.37 on gas; $.50 on snacks. Daughter and grandson came over again, this time after my lunch was in the oven... Joshua happy, Nana a little hungry. Make cupcakes since I had to heat the oven anyway, and this was appreciated by all. I used to bake all the time and they took it for granted, but now they seem to recognize the effect much better. Prolly age related as well. Busy night at work, but no new bills came in today, no big expenses so I'm happy. Going to hit a garage sale at a development tomorrow that often brings inexpensive goodies. Will be watching dgs at least one night this weekend too, so will try to hit the library for more videos/dvds. Getting tired of his favorite Aristocats! Trying to decide where to put some money for growth/emergency. Might be able to "retire" in as little as 6 years, but expect I'd really just be changing jobs if enything. Need to find a way to maintain reasonably priced health insurance as my health issues seem to grow ever more substantial. Having this board/these journals has been very helpful to keeping me on track; thanks for offering them!
