Calories are getting a little higher than I would like, so I have to watch it better. I did take an hour-long walk today, so that helped.

Ancestry.com charged my Discover card $189. I was expecting it, but thought the charge would come in the middle of the month. I was going to switch the charge to my Alliant card, but I was too late. Oh well.

I got free yogurt today with a virtual coupon, and I also spent $6 on Easter candy.

Variables spending is at 35%. Lots of stuff coming up, so it won't be a cheap month, but with last month finishing up at 66% I can afford to spend a little more this month.

My son in Florida got the word that the mortgage was approved for his new house. He is so thrilled -- they all are. Their new place will be smaller, but it will be in a better neighborhood, with amenities much closer. And it will be theirs. They are packing now and will be moving very soon.

    I'm with you on counting calories everyday. I am trying to stick to 1200/day. We'll see how this all ends up. How is the weight loss going?

    Kudos to you! I can't stick to a diet that is only 1200 calories; I am too miserable. But 1400-1500 seems about right for me. I don't weigh myself because I have learned that I only get too impatient for results and then I give up. I focus on the effort instead. And the fit of my clothes tells me whether I am succeeding or not. My pants are getting more comfortable (I was popping my buttons!) so I feel I am making progress.

    I wish Ancestry was cheaper. I'd really like it again as we've had some trial memberships over the years,but when I get busy, I don't use it much. And I'm with you--1200 calories makes me cranky.
