It rained all the way home yesterday and it's still drizzling this morning. They are promising it will turn into snow later in the day.
I left the house without my head screwed on this morning. I didn't pack a hat or scarf for the oncoming cold weather, and I didn't pack any food for today. I'm going to try not to buy any nonetheless. I have oatmeal in my desk, and I have a hard-boiled egg and three clementines in the fridge. I also have a bag of frozen peas in the freezer that I've never used. So I think I will have enough to get through the day.
My property management company is changing servers or something -- anyway, they have not withdrawn my automatic payment for my monthly assessment fees. I called the office yesterday, and I was told it might be resolved in a few days, but I could mail a check if I wanted to be sure. The trouble is, the automatic payment could still go through, and then I would have double-paid. She said the extra payment would go for next month's assessment, but I'm not sure I trust them to keep track of that. They seem a little disorganized. I'm going to wait for the 1st, and if it hasn't happened by then, I'll mail the check.
Tomorrow I am going out to dinner with members of my professional organization. It is in my new hometown, but a different neighborhood, so I will get off at a different station. It's been quite a month for eating out, much of it obligations, like this one. I hope next month will be quieter. That said, I'm looking forward to a good meal in a restaurant that's new to me but has excellent reviews.
Well, the rain came!

I can't wait for a quiet social month myself! I finally feel like I might have a couple bucks left over by Friday, when I get my next batch of spending money. But I did purchase a year of web hosting that I'm going to pay off $10 or $20 per week, so I won't feel fully caught up until I have that paid off. And of course, Valentine's Day is coming up, and we love to get a babysitter and go out for a semi-fancy meal, so who knows when I can just start stashing spending money in my sock drawer again?
