With payments, that is. I'm realizing that every small bit helps in the long run.

I paid an additional $6.50 on my student loan payment (I know, not much, but still *MORE* that I have paid in the past).

I paid an additional $48 on my mortgage payment making it a nice even $500 principle reduction.

I'm still amazed by how much money remains in the checking account as a result of conscientious spending.

I transferred DH's prescription, yielded me another $10 gift card for Target, bringing the "Work Smarter, Not Harder" challenge up to $81, and I mailed in a $5 rebate today, too.

Tomorrow is the day for wrapping (all kids gone all day to school for Christmas Show Practice) and Christmas cards (plan to address and sign tonight, put pictures in tomorrow and mail!) Still need to bake strawberry mini muffins for Special Ed Teacher for tomorrow. I'm noticing less Christmas cards this year compared to last year.
