No Spend Challenge and a Reset...

We started where we left off on our last challenge as far as organizing. We both came down with the flu the last time, so we had to abandon the physical portion of the challenge. We completed the no spend portion, however, like I have said before "There is more to this challenge than not spending money." 

After a couple of days of cleaning and organizing we decided to take an afternoon off and go for a ride. I hadn't even driven the car since we got it. So off we went with no particular destination in mind. Number One Husband snapped some pictures for me while I drove.

Freshly painted lines.

The drive was a nice distraction. A reset of sorts.

Today was a busy day full of re-organizing and moving things around. I was behind on my expense journal, so I was able to play catch up while dinner was cooking. I made a big pot of Carne Guisada and rice for dinner. We have plenty of leftovers for a quick meal and enough for a freezer meal if we don't finish it off. 

I hope to make a big batch of freezer biscuits, apple bread and sandwich bread tomorrow. I'm not sure what part of the challenge I will tackle tomorrow. Dresser drawers perhaps...


Shalom,
Mrs. Smith
