Money woes & beer cookies

Feb 10, 2010 16:03

So as my husband is getting ready for work at 3am this morning, he wakes me up to tell me that we need to somehow scrape up $1,000 in the next 2 paychecks so we can afford for me to move home before he deploys. Our rent check is $700- if that gives you any idea of how difficult this is going to be. We plan on selling some furniture before we move, since it isn't really worth moving it to wherever we're going to be stationed next: the crappy dining table, the couch and recliner, washer and dryer, etc. We'll be able to afford matching, nice stuff when he comes back. I'm thinking we might have to sell this stuff before we were planning on it, so we can afford to move and all that stuff. We'll just have to move the futon out if the couch is sold, and eat there instead of the kitchen table. We'll hardly be home in March anyway. I have to talk to my husband about this but I think it's what we'll have to do.

That being said, I won't be able to afford to buy him a birthday present (it's February 24th.) Instead, I found a picture of a bouquet of cookies I want to try to make. He doesn't drink beer, but hey- they're really cute! All I have to do is figure out how to make cookies in that shape. It looks pretty easy decorating wise, so I don't think it'll be too hard? Hopefully?
