Expensive weekend

April 15th, 2008 at 06:44 am

Well, this was a fairly expensive weekend. My sister and her son came into town on Friday and just left this morning. Her son is 8 which is the same age as my daughter so it is awesome when they get the chance to play together. They live 5.5 hours away by car which isn't too bad to travel however we rarely do it in the winter b/c she lives in the tippy top of NY state near the Canandian border and you never know when you might get snowed in. So, it was great to spend time with them.

I haven't added up what I spent but will try to summarize it here.

Friday I stopped at the grocery store to get some snacks and stuff for our company and spent about $50.00.

Saturday we went shopping at Kohls and I got a few things I needed and 2 shirts for DS that were on clearance. I spent $80.29. Stopped and got a movie for the kids to watch-$1.00.

Sunday we had a birthday party for DD so I had to go to the grocery store and buy the stuff I needed for dinner. We had baked ziti, meatballs, salad, and bread. Drinks and paper products included $50.42 for 15 people.

Monday we took the kids rollerskating. My sister bought admission for DD as it was part of her birthday present and DS and I didn't skate b/c he is only 3. We played some video games which I spent about $3.00 on. Sister and I went to Friendlys with a mutual friend to chat and remember "old times" and of course to eat icecream Smile I had a coupon for buy one sundae get one free so I only spent $5.00 including tip.

DD and I are home today. She is on Spring Break and I took yesterday and today off from work. I think we are going to lay low and try not to spend any moneySmile We have to go to my inlaws for yet another party tonight at 5:00pm. I am toying with the idea of doing some online shopping for DS today. He needs some spring clothes. I am also going to clean some more with the hopes of finding more stuff for the garage sale in May.

I should take a trip out to the consignment shop to drop off more stuff but am not very motivated to do that today. Maybe I will list some things on ebay, haven't done that in a while.

Off to check the checking account balance and see if I have any bills that need to be paid.....
