Re: Daily Check In January 17, 2021

Good day frugal friends! Sunday it is and I have always thought of it as the beginning of a new week, a day to relax and rest before the start up of the work week. I baked a peanut butter oatmeal breakfast bar yesterday and it tasted so good along with a cup of hot coffee this morning. I think I may...

Saturday was a no spend and today will be also, so the number climbs to 14. I'm happy to see the number go up.

Re: Is the Coronavirus affecting you

My cousin, who had been doing better, suddenly got worse and was struggling to breathe. They put him on a ventilator last night.
Patty, that is such sad news. Good thoughts and prayers for his healing.

Re: Juggling January No Spend 2021 Challenge

Today being the 15th of the month, with auto withdrawal of a couple of bills and one that I monitor before paying, makes this a spend day. There aren't any more until the 1st of February. Spend to date is 3, so no-sp if 12. Staying home will do that for ya, as well as not shopping online.
