For once, not more month than money. OK, that's an exaggeration. We usually coast into Pay Day Eve with $4.69 balance. This time it was within a buck.
Definitely to reign in on food spending. Time to check those summer and light eating recipes.
That's it. Just a random money observation.
Money = month

# MEC, I had that quote printed in large font on the inside cover of a previously used financial binder.

I will admit to not loving Dickens that much - had to suffer through another round of "Great Expectations" with my then 9th grader a few months ago. Though I am considering reading a book that someone recommended about this wife (I think) that he tried to get committed. Does that sound right? Or am I confusing Dickens with someone else? Interestingly enough, I just watched Ken Burns' documentary on the Shakers and he mentioned Nathaniel Hawthorne considering membership. Older daughter's second summer reading assignment is "The Scarlet Letter". Not looking forward to that read, but maybe it will prove interesting. I think a trip to the Library is in order!
