Took part of a walk yesterday and had to have my husband come pick me up as my leg was hurting too much to continue, so that wasted some gas, but what a sweetheart.

Figured out my sharebuilder plan and even though I already had a plan, somehow they let me start a new one to get the $50 bonus. Today I got my ebookdrop check in the mail, so used the money from that to fund my first sharebuilder purchase. I'll be getting about one whole share of Home Depot! Should be interesting to see what it is worth in about 20 years. Not sure when we get the bonus money, but it will also be invested for the long term.

I am craving chocolate so bad today. That is one of my goals to avoid it. I've only had chocolate twice in almost a month so that is great for me. I just wish the walking would be going better before the snow starts. This is beautiful weather to go out in right now and I'm missing it.

Even if I don't feel like I'm doing much frugal stuff on a particular day, coming to this board is really helping me keep to a frugal mindset and my hubby is in that mindframe too so that is nice. He is taking me out on a date tonight, which probably means dinner and a couple hours of reading books at Barnes & Noble. Cheap date-but we love them.
