I missed all of you and the inspiration from this forum so much while i was offline for the past month. i had the hardest time being thrifty this past month. i had a couple of weeks of feeling like i was going to pass out all of the time (low glucose levels finally determined) and i was pulling into drive thrus and eating out because it was hard to cook myself the protein i was needing. i didn't have a computer to freecycle or sell my stuff like i usually do as i come across things. we put ds into a "big boy room" and cleared out mounds of stuff that sat in my garage...although i did have a very successful yard sale that made $160.
i think that yard sale was my one and only victory in this area this month. that was great. and i took everything that didn't sell to goodwill...so there you go...another victory right there :)
looking forward to doing better this month. already did better yesterday and today by packing all the food and snacks i needed for the day in case i was out longer than i was thinking when i left the house without food....or hungrier...or not feeling well and needing to eat, which is happening all the time with my big, 35 weeks pg self. :)
