Well -

mom's back in the hospital. . . not a good thing for my budget , health or mental state.

I can foresee some family problems in the future, after a conversation with my sister, over the phone. She and I certainly don't agree on much.

I had intended to do some Christmas shopping after seeing mom at the hospital - but Marty forgot to have my gas cap fixed earlier this week. . . so, it takes 2 people to open it. I had to come home, so he could meet me at the gas station - otherwise I'd not be able to drive to work, the next few days. *sigh*

November 1st -

New month, new car, lots of $$$$.

So - back on the frugal band wagon in earnest this month. In actuality, we did really well in Oct. as far as not spending unnecessary money. But the car repairs, and buying another car, really hurt.

I'm going to try to post here more often about my frugal journey.
