Today, I feel the stress of the challenge.
Today, I’ve been scouting Google for Frugal, Handmade Christmas Gift Ideas. There is sooooo many good ones out there to make and I want to get started.
The problem, I have $45 to name until Friday. And $20 of that is for my gas tank. And $25 of that is for DH’s gas tank.
Hmph.
Guess I will just have to read a good book
until this weekend.
Check your local Parks and Rec schedule. A lot of parks have a lot of events involving everything from sports to local free concerts. Check out your local newspapers online events calendar too…
Good luck!!!

Thanks for the tips, Dave.
Actually, we utilize the Parks & Rec Dept alot. Its a great way to have frugal fun. Just like this Friday we are having a Picnic in the Park and listening to a U2 tribute band.
get a start on making these.

Now, do you happen to have a stash of chocolate to share? 😉

You know, good books give me the redetermination I need to stay on track. Nothin’ like a great self help to make me smile again.
