70. Save $5 a week....

The goal of this was to save money - I've actually done really well with this goal.  I set up a separate saving account last October and it worked miracles for me in putting away extra cash.  I've surpassed the $705 that I would have saved at $5/week so I'm considering this goal accomplished!! Whoop, whoop.  And I'll keep adding to the pot so I'm doing this goal about 5 times over!

Check one, check two

I graduated! Master of Arts in History - go me! And about a month ago I applied for a big girl job and had to write a cover letter. If I do say so myself, it is fabulous! All the people in my field who read it said it was wonderful!

Also, I'm back to running again so hopefully I can start working on the sub 30 minute 5k and the marathon goal.

Pot Roast

I made yummy pot roast for the first time last week! It was excellent and super easy. The crock pot did most of the work. Good flavor and lots of leftovers!

It sure did feel good.

I left my 100% tip the other day. I decided to have lunch at IHOP between classes the other day. The lady was super nice and kept my stocked up on coffee while I studied. The food was delicious too. I may have to go their more often. Anywho, the bill was $8.50 and I left a $9 tip. I realize that's not a whole lot of money, but it is more than a 100% tip. It did feel good too!

Yummy food!

I made some chicken parmesan, roasted onions, and yukon mashed potatoes for dinner on Valentine's Day! So yummy! And I made a HUGE heart shaped chocolate chip cookie!

Check plus for cooking something new!

I made BBQ shredded pork sandwiches yesterday. Superb!

Oh, and I made Peanutbutter cookies for the first time last Friday. Yummy as well!

Books

Two more books added to my measly non-school list.
If only I could count the school books - I've read 4 in the last week. Oy, my eyes!
