My friend and her DH are heading north tomorrow. They were in town for TWO weddings...if you can believe it...two sisters one last weekend, and one this coming weekend...at opposite ends of the state...(those poor parents) But the girls planned the weddings this close so that the family coming from England/Spain would only have to travel once.
So, off they all will go tomorrow to caravan up to daughter #2 's wedding.
Today my friend is spending time with her dad...and I hope to get in one last visit this afternoon or tonight. I wont see her again for about a year.
So, what does this have to do with money?
This week has been a costly one...I seem to derail and all too easily slide right out of my frugal shoes when it comes to entertaining my out of town friend. Altho, I did pretty well with spending on our shopping day...only buying little christmas gifts. I bought a couple bottles of nice wine on our excursion- and nice wine is definately NOT in my budget.
I guess I am just eager to put the frugal shoes back on and get back on track.
But sad at the same time to see my buddy off for another year.
Friends Last Day

Strange how what at first was hard (being frugal) is now the norm!

I feel for you! Glad you enjoyed your visit though, and of course you deserve to splurge sometimes!
