Roberta, don't you love not having to have the a/c on?

My frugal, my a/c has been off since Monday!!! I'm working thru my lunch, leaving at 4 to get my oil changed before next week's trip to drop the girls off. Spent about $45 and some change at Aldi yesterday. It was so cute, I took Alyssa with me shopping. I had $70 on me, put $10 in the gas tank so she knew I had $60 to go to Aldi with. We did our little bit of shopping, got things I knew I could stretch and at the check out it was the $45 and some change. She didn't say anything till we got in the car and then said to me, Mom, how much money do you have left. I told her about $14 and she said "Man, money sure doesn't last long does it!" I just laughed at her and agreed, no sweets, it doesn't...

Today's frugal, a/c off again, meals cooked at home. Not frugal but frugal in the long run is the oil change. I keep it changed every 3000 miles as I know what happens if you don't. Living with the ex bf taught me that as many repairs as I used to go on with him!

Hope you all have a lovely day! Will check in soon!!!
