Yesterday was errand day, and I spent a little.
First stop was Pet Source. I bought kitty litter, cat food, and three doses of Frontline Plus for $73.
Next stop was Lowe's. I didn't spend anything, but my cousin bought some fencing and some kind of hose attachment for fertilizing.
Then Wal-Mart. My cousin bought groceries, and I bought a broom, laundry basket and personal items for $19.
On the income side, I received an $8 check from my retirement fund because of a miscalculation in interest.
In less than a week I am heading to Chicago to visit my sons. I think my cousin will come along as far as Indiana, so that will help with expenses. I think we will even use her car, since her mileage is so much lower than mine.
Today I'm going to do some kitchen stuff -- fry up a pound of bacon and make a pot of rice. We always keep those on hand. And I think I'll make some banana muffins to use up some very freckled bananas.
Laundry day, too. I'm so excited, I get to use my new laundry basket!
Just catching up
