Mid Year's Resolution

Okay, no, it is not January first, but I'm making a mid year resolution- 2 to be exact. Since I have been home from surgery, I have done nothing but eat junk and I can tell it in my mood and my body. I have gained 4 pounds. Okay, so I lost 6 in the hospital but I want to be where I was or a little less. My goal weight was 140 and I am now at 142 but I want to be at 135 now.

So, starting Monday, I am going to start eating healthy, throwing out the junk food (or sending it to camp with the girls), and since I have been okayed to exercise, I am going to start working my body back into shape.
that is one resolution.

The other resolution is to quit spending so much money. B, what was that website you went to? I need to go there. It's not that I spend a lot of money, I definitely shop for bargains since I am the garage sale and goodwill queen. I went garage saleing this morning and got 4 blankets, 2 pic frames, a huge box of greeting cards (to give to a lady at the church that sends out cards to the sick and needy), some cups, tupperware, pots and pans and utensils- all for $5. Not a bad deal. So did I really need to go? No, but the camper could use some dishes/pots/pans, etc.

The thing is, that I love to go to the goodwill and garage sales when I really don't need anything. I love looking for good bargains on clothes, but my closet is bursting at the seams and so are the girls' closets. I have passed on my fetish with shoes to my girls. They probably have 10-12 pair each.

So anyhow, I need to quit spending money on things I don't need. I have got to save money if I ever want to build a house. I want to have as much money saved up as I can. Plus we have vacations planned and booked that we don't even have the money for. Okay, we have the money, but I don't want to delve into savings.

So, starting monday- eat healthy, exercise and budget wisely..... hmmm what do I want to eat before then? CRAWFISH!!!! The season is almost over and I need to get at least one more fix in. Then J has got me craving that dessert pizza at Pizza Hut. Does anyone know how to make that sugar free?
