started the day out great. gonna go to the library and pick up the cd's and books i ordered. treat myself to $5 at the dollar store(hair ornaments for me and granddaughters). i spent nothing except regular bills this week and took lunch everyday from leftovers in fridge. my gentleman did take me to the movies, i brought coupon to save him a few dollars on the admission price- we ate sandwiches out of our pockets he is learning took the train and bus everyday-pass is free from work. will come home to check sale for grocery shopping list on monday.

today is my mama's 82nd birthday and i will need to go see her and take her the gift that is waiting to be wrapped on my dresser. a frugal gift (got at 50% off) chosen just for her. also take her the christmas gift (no i did not make it over to her place). i am procrastinating starting my bill paying for the month. cannot actually get any monies to creditors til monday?? will take the time to dress and start the day (have completed my bible study). going to see a movie with beau and son's family (hope i can use the $3 off coupons)$7 or $10 - eat before i leave-stick some butter mints in my pocket. this afternoon then go visit other son this evening ($5 towards gas $10 food). have to make grocery list and see if son will take me tomorrow. going to be a busy day. will be spending money as frugally as i can.
