Well I managed to get through the weekend without spending a lot of money thanks in part to the big snow storm we had.
Saturday I came into work and put in 5.5 hours of overtime. I had not worked OT in 2 weeks and was missing the extra boost to the paycheck.
Sunday I got up early and made a quiche and meatloaf for dinners this week. My dh informed me that "real men don't eat quiche". Well, they do if they are hungry enough!
I also made sandwhiches for lunch all week.
DH made cookies on Sunday which is a hysterical story in itself but so far the cookies have prevented me from buying anything here at work to eat. I figure 2 cookies a day will save me $3 and shouldn't put on any additional weight. Just to be sure I will work out extra hard tonight.
Still have some Christmas shopping to do which is stressing me out and my daughter is anxious to go see Santa. Tomorrow night I plan on finishing and taking her to see him.
I am so impatient when it comes to paying off my debt. I want to see results everyday. Now that I am budgetting and trying to keep track of my spending I check my bank balance on line everyday and try to figure out where to get more cash from to pay off the store cards-Goal #1 is going to happen and it will happen by the date I specified.
Overtime and cookies

Hang in there with the budget, it will all pay off sooner than you know it
