1. I skipped grocery shopping this past week and made a menu plan for now through the end of September. I plan to do one big shop for basics and one or two trips for perishable items. Soon I will be able to plant lettuce again as the temperatures will continue to cool down slightly.
2. I mentioned earlier in the week that I used an afghan for the main decoration in the social hall at church for pastor appreciation day. For the table decorations I used items left over from Bible school. This year's theme was sports so I saved everything that was football related.
3. I filled our trash can yet again and added a bag to my parents' since they had extra room.
4. I took care of a matter over the phone which saved a trip into town. It probably saved a bit of aggravation as well.
5. A trip to the chiropractor this week took care of my hip and shoulder problems. It was tempting to spend the next couple of days pulling weeds since I felt so much better. Instead I took it easy reading in my garden lounge chair while Toby played. Sometimes being frugal means not doing much.
