Started a Budget

Jul 28, 2019 00:46


Woke up at noon.

I realized that I left one item off of my grocery list. Bother. I'll run in before I pick up the rest of the groceries.

Someone is working on the roof of another mobile home. Bam!

Mimi has taken over Zara's spot again. Sigh. I love Mimi, but she is kind of a jerk.

Okay, it's nap time. Had a nice nap, but overslept. Jammed to throw myself together in time to get Zara's meds. Went to Walmart, and found out that my vet hadn't called in refills for Zara's meds. Bought eyeliner. By the time that I got done with my Walmart errands, my big order was ready, and I picked it up. Ran to Aldi, and found that they had a cube organizer at a really good price, so I got it (plus groceries). Stopped at Dollar Tree for a couple of things, and wound up getting candy as well. Got some money for the lawn guy (who never picked up his money for this month, so I need to get in touch with him).

I'm pondering why it's been hotter and more humid on the weekends than during the week. We could use a nice thunderstorm right now. I'm dripping sweat.

Put groceries away. I just had one bag left of frozen stuff to go in the chest freezer--I bought more cod fillets because I want to make fish stew, and Aldi had frozen chicken breasts on sale--but Zara was on the freezer. She's pretty smart. When I walked over there, she jumped off for a minute. Now she's back on it.

Damn, they were out of tomatoes. I bought the ingredients to make my own roast beef sandwiches, but I need tomatoes. I'll go look for some tomorrow or on Monday.

Called Mom. Now she got the squirrel out of the house, so she thinks that she can come the week after next.

While I talked to Mom, Mimi was running around. She knocked over the drying rack and got herself tangled up in one of my blazers. I had to put the phone down and extract her.

Started setting up a budget and tracking my expenses. Signed up for some budgeting webinars tomorrow. Now I need to clean out my purse and pull out some receipts to track. No, now I'm getting a little tired, so I'm going to read for a while and pick this up again tomorrow.
