Oh, happy, happy, happy...a new library opened two blocks away from our house. We are a family of big time readers (excluding dh) and we go to the library about every two weeks, and take out about twenty books for me, ds11, dd9, and ds5. We walked in there today and it just smelled new! All the books are new and it was so cool! Now that we have a library so close, maybe we won't have so many overdue books...

Dh went to make a box of Kraft dinner the other day and it was moldy! Yeppers, the macaroni was actually green. It was totally disgusting--has anyone ever heard of this? I emailed the company and received a nice email back apologizing and saying that they would reimburse us through first class mail and we should receive a rebate within two weeks. I'll keep you posted on this...shockers!

Today was a no spend day. I think that makes three for this month...hmmm, I tried so hard last month to have 14 no spend days and failed miserably. This month I decide not to set an amount, and I'm doing so well...could be I'm just jinxing myself.

Things I did to save money today:
1) Went to the library.
2) Ate off the buffet at work--no charge.
3) Spent the morning cleaning the house and helping the kids do their paper route.
It was a productive and fun day, except for the work part. Same old, same old...
