A new foot of snow and no car. Hmmm, sounds like we can have some fun and spend NO money. Because of the snow dump and my husband's commute, he needed my 4X4 to get to work. That means we stay home. We only went out one day last week, and that was to our little town for Awana. Spent $28 at the grocery store and came home. The new snow gave us plenty to do, shoveling and playing!
So, staying home is the best way by far to save money. I also make lists and try to stick with them. It was funny yesterday, I had my list and was following it faithfully. But, I remembered as I was in the paper goods part of the store that there was something I remembered that I needed to put on my list from this section...but what was it?? I even asked my son if he had any ideas. He told me that I would remember as soon as we headed home. I did. ((sigh)). Brads for the lapbooks.
Just heard the weather for today...4 more inches of snow today, another few tonight. We'll probably be home the rest of the week! No complaints,and my bank balance doesn't move. Thanks, God.
Snow is such a fun diversion from real life. There are so many fun and free things to do in the snow. And it is great exercise! Any fun games to recommend? We just seem to sled, ski, and skate...oh, and shovel, shovel, shovel!
Have a super day, my new friends and old,
