When it comes to spending, the weekend has been very quiet.In fact, thinking back on it to write this post, it seems like maybe theweekend was quiet in general. It doesn’t exactly feel that way, though,probably because of the stress of the previous week.
My MIL went in for surgery on Wednesday. The plan was for meto help the hubby with her pre-surgery shower and then to go back to work whilehe took her to the hospital and sat with her during the pre-op questioning. Youknow what they say about the best laid plans. Hubby got a major case of foodpoisoning Tuesday night. So on Wednesday, with very little sleep, I had to workand prep MIL (on my own) and take her to the hospital and sit through pre-op.
However, she came through the surgery just fine, and wasmoved to a skilled nursing facility on Saturday.
Friday Spending
$0
I got off work and we went and visited the MIL. This suckedbecause we had to drive into and out of downtown Seattle on a Friday evening during commutetime. Then we came home and finished cleaning the room the new roomie wasmoving in to.
I think I had a grilled cheese sandwich for dinner, but Idon’t remember for certain. We then finished watching the final season of thenew BattleStar Gallactica on Netflix.
Saturday Spending
Fred Meyer ~$16
We used to only grocery shop for us every other week. We’regoing to try and get back in that habit. What we bought Saturday wasn’tgroceries, but the yummy bacon cheddar burgers to take with us to a birthday bbq.
Saturday consisted of moving the new roomie in, going tolunch (roomie paid), going to the dog park, visiting the MIL in the SNF, andthen going to the birthday bbq.
We had a good time. The boys (hubby & roomie) playedDominion, and I talked writing and relationships with some of the other womenthere.
Sunday Spending
Starbucks ~$7
I had my writing group in the morning. Other than that, weonly left the house for a trip to the dog park.
We’ll be having raviolis for dinner, or at least that’s thecurrent plan. I’m starting to not feel so good, so we’ll see how that soundswhen we actually go to make something.
Hey, you're blog is really growing. Keep up the good work!BTW, I love Starbucks. Their frappucino's amazing.
Oh, food poisoning is no fun at all, to say the least… Glad your MIL's surgery went well. Your weekends manage to sound both busy and relaxing all at once.
