Very busy day at work today. Plus I cleaned, did laundry, went to the library & ran some errands all before work. Rented 2 movies from the Library.
Treated myself to lunch today--I love the salad place by my work---I can get tons of veggies, turkey, cheese, egg and pasta in one salad...because of all the ingrediants & what I would waste if I went to the grocery store for all of it...I think the salad's a good deal every once in awhile. I do have regular salad fixings at home for everyday lunches.
I've got some small work obligations--we have to send a sympathy gift to one of our managers & we have a birthday this week, plus a promotion for another manager. I'll be shelling out a few bucks for each. I plan for these type of expenses, so it won't hurt too bad.
Now I just have to get through tomorrow at work with no spending. I have off Thursday for my birthday, my mom & I are going to the movies (her treat) and then Friday is my 'liquid' lunch with my friends. yummy.
