Yesterday morning with the grandsons went very well. It only cost me $21 to treat them both -- and their dad, who came home early -- to pancakes at IHOP. That's because GS2 had an IHOP gift card and he was dying to use it! He was very disappointed that he didn't get the card back, though, as a memento.
This morning I got coffee at the museum. ($1) Once I got a look at my to-do list, I knew I needed caffeine.
This afternoon I am going back to the podiatrist for the orthotics fitting. I suppose that will be another $50. Just for the visit, not counting the actual cost of the orthotics. I don't know whether I'll be expected to pay for them today or when they are ready.
Variable spending is a 54%. Now that there is less than two weeks till payday, that's respectable.
I got two offers in the mail for new credit cards with bonuses -- one that pays $100 for $500 in spending, and one that pays $150 for $1000. Thinking about doing both. I would have three months to get it done, and I easily put more than $1500 on credit cards in a three-month period. I think I'll apply when I have another moment to sit down.
Edit: Almost forgot. I also spent $9 on postage; mailed a box of books to my sister.
