Day 3 and we are purchase free for today but this no spending thing is hard. I found myself wanting to look for a new swimsuit. Mine is falling apart inside but unless I find one a thrift shop this one will have to do. The suit is still quite usable but last month I could have purchased one, this month I will wait. Who knows, I may find a steal at a thrift shop and I find that challenge interesting.
I have also given up soda for the most part this month and today was one of those days that I really would have liked one as a pick me up in the afternoon. But I perservered and didn't ask hubby to get one on the way home. Instead he came home and made me an iced mocha from scratch. What a guy!
We have not dined out yet. We are allowed once per week. I even packed a lunch to eat on the way to the waterpark yesterday when convenience would have served me well.
Today's menu
Breakfast: Breakfast burritos and bananas
Lunch: Turkey sandwhiches
Dinner: Crockpot roast with onions, mashed potatoes and gravy, salad
Tomorrow's menu
Breakfast: Oatmeal
Lunch: Packed lunches with sandwhiches, string cheese and fruit (kids at their aunt's and me heading to a homeschool store out of town)
Dinner: Hamburger helper (I know, not my first choice either but I possibly won't be home for dinner, it's in the back of the pantry and the kids like it; time for it to go.)
Onward and upward people. We can do it!
