A mid-week post...wow

April 18th, 2007 at 04:08 am

Hello Friends-

This week is going a little smoother than last.

I am making a sandwich each night and getting everything laid out...

So, in the morning, I push a button to get the coffee perkin...savings of $3 each day.

and I make lunch for about .75 rather than $5+...so savings of at least $4.25

I have a container of crystal lite for the afternoon soda urge...savings of at least .50 (plus calories)

and I have premade dinners for each night...or planned the meal...saving of at least $15

so...almost $25 per day saved by doing some pre-planning. hooray!

My boss and I are having a great time working together...his RED-ness (goal oriented- serious) and my YELLOW-ness (ideas and urge to make all things fun) compliment each other well...and I am getting so much done- it feels great. My self confidence is really skyrocketed right now!!

I do splurge and supply a dish of red-hots on my desk for all who stop by...and believe me...I have 'regulars' lol!

I am enjoying this new life ALOT!

I did get two more work suits to wear, since my older clothes no longer fit Big Grin.
They were both on sale and I got both for $83.

My first paycheck isn't due for another week and a half...it will be nice to get them started so I can get to living under the new budget.

Life is good!
