I have been all over the place with meals the last few weeks and have been experimenting with a new diet for myself. I hate calling what I eat a diet but hey, that’s what it is, right? I have been eating the Mediterranean diet the last 2 weeks. I wanted to eat healthier, butContinue reading “Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 13-19 of 52”

Not Impressed With Our Debt March 2024
March was a struggle too but a whole lot better than February. I am excited to say for the first time in years we got an actual tax refund! All of this refund will be going to our credit card. Amazing! In March I made payments of $1234.00 to this credit card, our total isContinue reading “Not Impressed With Our Debt March 2024”
Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 10-12 of 52
My apologies for getting so behind on posting! Nothing earth shattering just life I guess. Three weeks ago I actually didn’t grocery shop. What I did do was buy dinner fixings for us on that Sunday because my father in-law ate with us and then I shopped for a dinner for 7 of us onContinue reading “Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 10-12 of 52”
Not Impressed With Our Debt February 2024
I think February 2024 will go down as one of the worst months I have had in a really long time. So bad in fact that I started seeing a therapist again and that says a lot because I am a very strong person. Included in our sh*tty month of February was the stress ofContinue reading “Not Impressed With Our Debt February 2024”
Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 9 of 52
Week 8 was a great week in the food dept. because I cooked one time on Sunday and we pretty much ate it the rest of the week. Plus the boy even cooked one night for us. Yay! Sunday it was warm enough to cook on the grill outside so we did a massive grillingContinue reading “Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 9 of 52”
Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 8 of 52
Week 7 was a better week in the meal dept. Although we were still dealing with Scott’s Dad escaping the senior living facility multiple times, we still managed to eat pretty well. Dad even stayed with us for four days while we got his new home ready closer to us. I made a big batchContinue reading “Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 8 of 52”
Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Weeks 6-7 of 52
Weeks 5 and 6 were a complete free-for-all after my mother-in-law passed away. I did have something strange happen the day before she died though. On Tuesday, (She died on Wednesday), I made two complete dinners when I got home from work. I NEVER do that. Who has time to make two complete dinners atContinue reading “Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Weeks 6-7 of 52”
Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 5 of 52
Week 4 was another good week. Sunday and Monday we ate chili, Tuesday was hot dog night, Wednesday were pork chops finally, Thursday was leftovers, Friday we went out for dinner and Saturday we had a family 90th birthday party to attend so we were gone all day. The only thing we bought mid-week wasContinue reading “Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 5 of 52”

Week 3 was a good week. I made a double batch of chocolate chip, coconut, banana bread, a pumpkin pie, and an apple pie for us. Spaghetti leftovers on Monday, I made the French onion soup recipe from the cookbook my cousin sent me. One night we had pepper steak in the crockpot and oneContinue reading “Grocery Shopping and Meal Planning 2024 Week 4 of 52”
Not Impressed With Our Debt January 2024
In my December update a full year had gone by since I last checked in and after a lot of thinking, researching and delving into our credit card statements (and a few tears I might say), I have a much better understanding of how and why our debt soared again this year. The ironic thing? WeContinue reading “Not Impressed With Our Debt January 2024”
