Friday, Not much saving this week

 Well, other than not going anywhere and not spending any money for 4 days in a row, I have not done much.  There will be no large saving this week which makes me sad, but I am happy about the no spending!!!

Had a piano lesson this morning and received a new song for the choir.  I am beginning to realize that accompaniment is easier than playing out of a classics book.  At least the music is easier. Those classics kick my butt.

Tonight, I am taking missionaries to dinner, and I need to txt my buddy to come with us.  I think we are doing Applebees.

Then tomorrow I am going to make Valentine cookies and all of us girls and the men are going out to celebrate Dean's Retirment.  (Dean belongs to Lil sis).  We are doing sister's lunch today and this is way too much eating out, but all for a good cause, like mental stability.

So, what did Kim do this week to save money?

1. she stayed home not much fun, but it works

2. saved on gas by not driving

3. used groceries she had purchased on the first of the month

4. Used spoiled milk in a recipe and you cannot taste it

5. made cinnamon rolls for a treat for kids that wanted something sweet

6.pulled heavy duty buckles off old hockey gear to replace on existing hockey gear, saving money for both my kids and the club.

7. ordered new buckles online instead of paying outrageous prices at Joanns.

8. Went to Joanns and did not by any sale items and it was so tempting.  Got out with a 4inch .45 cent piece of cloth.  Almost a miracle 

I will try and do better next week, I might be able to scrap together $100 for saving but I am afraid that will leave me with no money.... Yikes Kim must get to work.

What are we all doing this weekend? Anything fun?

God is good

Kim
