Almost Friday
It's been a hectic week. Work has been...crazy, to say the least. There's a lot going on. Stay tuned. And I've been busy outside of work as well.
I haven't gotten as much done around the house and on my to do list as I would like, but I should have some time this weekend to catch up. Or at least I hope I do.
The no spend challenge. I was a little more successful this week. If I remember right. LOL. I have not been to a grocery store. I have not put money on my vendor card at work. In fact, I actually had tea yesterday and today. Piece of advice, don't drink HOT TEA through a straw. OWWWW. I have not eaten out. However, I haven't worked out either. But, spending wise, I've been good. I've also cooked this week. Monday was ribs in the crockpot, Tuesday was Chicken Paprikash and tonite was a spaghetti frittata. Last night was leftovers and tomorrow will probably be leftovers for me.
I've read a couple of books, but haven't done much crafty this week. It's in the plan, but just haven't gotten there. I have to do list for that as well. I have UFO's I want to finish.
1) Cross Stitch Tablecloth (started in college?)
2) 2010 UFO Snow Day Mystery Quilt
3) Pirates Scarf
4) Legacy Scarf (started 2 years ago)
5) Finish a block of the month started 2 or 3 years ago
6) Quilt and finish at least 2 quilts
7) Tshirt quilt promised for a pinball friend.... I've had the stuff for too long.
8) Finish one kit previously purchased from connecting threads
So, being ambitious or trying to be. But I need to sit down and work on some of them at some point. Along with everything I want to do. I think my problem is that I'm trying to do too much. And I'm not succeeding at anything right now. So, I need to take a step back and re-prioritize and come up with a plan and stick to it. One thing at a time.
But, that's life right now. At least I'm being somewhat good in the spending category, which is a major goal. Now to find money to pay off my debt. :)
