We're actually doing really well financially. So I'm putting quite a bit into our two savings accounts (one for actual savings, one large unexpected bills eg: vet). Right now, while our expenses are still low, we're going to save save $ave.
My dad bought a new Prius today, a red one. He has two cars (well, three right now): a 92 Dodge Caravan, and a 99 Toyota Corolla. He selling the van this weekend. Then he wants to replace the Corolla with a new Corolla in a year or so.
We got a new cat on Tuesday. We named him Julius. He's a three year old grey and white tabby. He's still afraid of Fiona, but he's getting a little braver each day. And he a big snuggle cat, which is nice.
I've made a new weight loss plan. These are the rules for the next month:
- Track all calories every day. (I was doing this but not being very strict about it)
- Maximum of 24 oz of diet soda a day. (I am really addicted to diet coke, so setting a two can limit is a good start).
- No sweets except on Sundays and special occasions. (I'm also really addicted to sugar. So this has been tough, but I know it's healthier to do without it)
- If not running errands, walk or jog on lunch break. (I'm lucky enough that I can eat lunch at my desk, then use my lunch hour as I please. Sometimes I need to buy groceries, but most days I'm free. And since I work alone most of the time, I can come back to work all sweaty and red-faced).
- Ride the bike 4-5 times a week, aiming for 45-60 minutes at a time. (I have my bike on a trainer, in the living room. I can watch tv and petal away.)
- Weigh in Sunday morning.
