Onward to my 1st Review of 2011...the Jan. through March months.
JANUARY
I talked about my Goals for 2011.
I talked about rebating.
I shared fun musical clips.....well at least "I" thought they were fun!
I celebrated not only my Birthday but my 1000th Post!
I held a big Birthday Celebration Giveaway which lasted a whole month.
I complained about our region's crappy coupon inserts.
I conducted a Christmas Spending Autopsy.
And I did A LOT of Free Rite-Aid shopping!
Moving on to FEBRUARY....It was NOT a stellar month!
I just felt taken advantage of by everyone in my life and was feeling a tad low.
I way over spent on the Food Budget.
Daughter got into all 5 of the Colleges she applied to and I was having "fun" dealing with paperwork and bureaucratic stuff.
My Mother-in-Law passed away and I provided comic relief at the Funeral.
I did more large scale Rite-Aid shopping and held 2 more Giveaway.
If people didn't think I was 'weird' enough, I proved I was even Stranger than they could imagine.
I spent an entire post explaining How to Do Rite-Aid.....ok, so this post was really for Mark. lol
I talked about how with spending frugally and couponing I was able to Save Money & Give to Local Charities.
I blogged about January's result for the $32K Savings Challenge for 2011.
March
I talked about my murderous thoughts toward small rodent like creatures.
I showed y'all my long ignored sewing pile and my stockpile.
I was classically random in this Post.
And I first wrote about my year long purging attempts Here. Seeing Mark declutter was the final UMPH I needed to kick my butt into gear. Thanks buddy!
So looking back over the 1st 3 months of 2011, how are you feeling about it now?
Most of mine?....I am glad it's over with and I don't want to go back there.
How about you?
Are you in a better place emotionally, physically, financially and/or spiritually now?
I hope so!
