Our first anniversary is on Monday. We both decided to take the day off and "celebrate". We have already given eachother our gifts (We are so bad with that) and will probably go out to dinner one night this weekend. However, on Monday I plan on parking my butt by the pool and relaxing. I told DH this plan a couple weeks ago and he was fine with it. He plans on spending his day playing PS3 I am sure. It's kinda hard to believe that we have been married a year already. I remember our wedding like it was last week. Crazy how time goes by.
I signed up for the grocery game in an attempt to cut down our grocery bill some more. However, I don't really get it. I clipped my coupons out of last Sunday's paper and today when I went to access the list half of the stuff that I need isn't even on the list? Does anyone else do this? Any advice you can offer me? I know some of the girls on the Money Matter board use it so maybe I will ask over there.
I posted a previously about volunteering ect. One of my co-workers told me about Tender Hearts and gave me a contact number. I called and left a message today. Fingers crossed that it all works out.
I started my exercise this week. So far so good. My sister recommended the Couch Potato to 5k plan. (Google it) So far so good. I went running on Monday and yesterday. I have shin splints like a mo fo but it will all workout.
PS I played hookie on Tuesday and it was fabulous. No one but me and the kitties to hang out and relax. It's nice to have some quiet time every once and a while.
