men...

It is never a good idea to take my husband with me to BulkBarn....

Im trying to ( and was succeeding) in minding a tight budget to try and grow the savings with this impending possible move.... Its a bit of a challenge when i have a meager income myself. Well, my excellent resraint in blowing my $ was sabotaged today when went to the BulkBarn for a Few items i need for a couple of Cake orders.... Hubby now understands why he doesnt get the Chocolate TrailMix often.......... or Chocolate Covered peanuts...or why i DONT buy my girls Chocolate covered Pretzels....or a great big bag of Hot Chocolate mix..... because when you add them to $20 worth of sugar and vanilla...the total comes to $80 freaking dollars and Mommas pocket full of sunshine is now a Pocket full of dryer lint!

Combine that with the fact that i had to go get Cadie a new pair of boots cuz she wont stay out of the puddles and winter boots dont dry over night..... and Jay convinced me to buy a second pair of boots... were now up to $100 spent.....

I went out tonight with the intention of paying the girls $15 dance fees, and getting Icing Sugar and clear Vanilla..... a $35 evening turned into $150......... Primarily because of SoMeBoDyS sweet tooth......

Rant Over...
