Shew, long day at work. Tomorrow is supposed to be my day off, but I may go in to do a few things. The good thing is, I'm salary so I don't have to abide by the no-overtime rules like everyone else. The bad thing is, I don't get overtime so I don't get paid for the after-forty hours every week! It's a double-edged sword I guess!

Tonight will be spent relaxing, we were going to go out to eat but decided not to and save the "entertainment" money. DH's sister, niece, and bro-in-law might be stopping by for a bit anyway.

I'm proud of us, this is our 5th day of tracking every penny and we've done pretty good I guess. I suspect we are over the weekly budget for eating out, but not too bad and we have stocked up on some groceries that might catch us up later in the month.

We'll see!

    At my job I have to work a full hour overtime before I get paid for it....

    So it makes for interesting debates with myself if I finish 15 minutes late - do I wait another 45 mins or not ?? hehe
