Falling Behind, Again

I had a rather hectic Monday and Tuesday morning, so I took an unplanned break from blogging yesterday. Hopefully, I can keep up with it better from here on out.

But that's not the only thing that I've fallen behind on. To help us stay aware of where we are debt-wise, my husband and I have a meeting every month in which we both look at what we still owe and see how much progress (and sometimes, I must admit, it is anti-progress) we've made toward our goal to be debt-free. The meeting is tentatively scheduled for the first of the month, though sometimes we have it on the 3rd, or 6th or whenever, based on when we're able to gather up everything and jot down the necessary numbers.

Well, tomorrow is the date of our next "meeting," and we've yet to meet in October yet. Oh well. I guess next month's will be a double meeting.

Happy Halloween, everyone!

thredUP

Yesterday, I heard about a site called thredUP . Through this site, you can buy used clothes for your growing child from other parents, and sell the ones your child has outgrown. As quickly as our little girl goes through clothes at this stage, I think this sounds like a great idea. I'm constantly pulling clothes my daughter has outgrown out of her closet, and I feel like she's forever running out of clothes that fit her. I plan to look into it a little more, and I just might give it a try.

Frozen Dinner Thoughts

I've been trying to give some thought to what kinds of foods would make good homemade frozen dinners.  (My first post on the topic is here .) Tomorrow is grocery day, so I'd like to have an idea what kinds of things I can make to make sure I have all the ingredients. So far, I'm planning stew (per my husband's request) and a crustless cheeseburger quiche. Hopefully, I can think of another seven options between today and tomorrow.

TV Time

I'm still looking for a lighter TV , but I hope to buy one within the next couple of weeks. I don't like that so many that I see come with only a yearlong warranty. I don't trust that. Odds are -- based on the reviews of the ones I've seen -- the TV will outlast the warranty, but I just dislike the idea of shelling out $300 or $400 for something that the manufacturer has only a year's worth of confidence in. Based on what I've found in researching TVs, though, I'm probably not going to get a better warranty than that, so I'll likely just have to suck it up.
