Normally, I would be grocery shopping this morning, but eight or so inches of new snow have given me all the ammunition I need to just stay home. If I can't be on a trip somewhere warm in January, I'd just as soon stay in my warm den.
I always buy groceries before paying my bills, but this month I am going to do the opposite, which means sticking to a limited amount of money for groceries. I think this is a good month to do that, since the freezer has meat left from last month's shopping.
I need to change my spreadsheet around to reflect the new credit card charges I made in New Hampshire, which might be a bit depressing, but I have to face it instead of ignoring it if I ever want to pay it all off. I don't like having some money socked away for an emergency--like the trip to Dad's--and having to use my credit cards instead. Right now, however, I don't have a penny set aside, which tells me that I really need to write a lot a build up my paypal account and my checking account.
Off to write checks to pay bills and then to write, write, write!
