A whole lot of nothing going on

July 31st, 2012 at 03:55 pm


Taking care lots of nominal things around here today. Closed out the money situation for the summer programs Smile, cleared out the paperwork in the binder and updated the email list for next year. Since I think that I see myself in this capacity next year, I made an effort to tidy things up.

My daughters made a lot of money last week babysitting for the full week. Older one made $85, younger one made $158. They each gave some back to me for their savings accounts. Smile

We had a low-spend weekend: swimming at the pool, walk at the Arboretum and then dinner out at Steak N Shake (OOP for seven people: $18 - that was after a gift card, coupons and kids eating free).

Older daughter has made friends with some girls from the incoming freshman Lacrosse team. She was heading off to high school knowing only one girl from her graduating 8th Grade class, so I'm glad her horizons have expanded prior to getting there. She was at the mall with two of them and then went to a sleep-over.

Younger daughter is at pom camp today and the remainder of the week. She was a bit reluctant to go, which is unlike her. I suppose that the torrents of puberty will throw me for a loop sometimes. She was excited and at least has hip hop in her dance background (older daughter didn't do well with poms after being classically trained in Irish dance for eight years Frown

So last day of July means that that August starts tomorrow. New budget goes into effect, and I suppose it is sort of spending limbo until Friday (payday).

Well that is it!

    Awesome spending at Steak N Shake! Can't beat 7 people for 18 bucks!

    That's good your DD is making some friends ahead of the school year. Having friends already in a new place sure helps! Smile
