Rules and stuff

August 11th, 2004 at 04:12 am

SOmeone suggested I donate my clothing and write it off as a tax thing. But I'm not sure they do that in Canada. I know it's a big thing in the States.

The other thing is I need the money NOW. Not next year. We have a few other things to get rid of as well. I'm not too concerned about the loss of monies on the clothing as we got them for basically nothing. (I have two neices a year and two years older than DD so we get all the handmedowns plus all the BRAND NEW clothing from the baby shower when DD was a month and the other relatives and such. Great to have a babyin a small town I tell ya!). So, I can't lose anything since I never paid anything to begin with. It's more a matter of when can we do the sale, and how. We'll figure that out.

This weekend I'm taking in the cans and bottles. We have quite a few so that should be a lil, not much but better than a kick in the ass. It'll pay for part of DH's thermos so he can take coffee to work in large amounts which will cut down on the that expense.

We have $33 left in my account, maybe 10 in DH's not sure if he put gas in the car or not. He gets paid on Thursday $600 and I get $100 or so on Friday. And then I will start the envelope system for some things, like food, gas, Dh's cigs (I know don't lecture me, I'm nagging him DAILY to quit ... for health and money and he just can't won't i dunno ... it's frustrating. Is it THAT hard? I don't know. I guess I can't won't give up my internet either but it only costs $35 compared to $150 ... even if he cut down ... anway), most things are fixed like the phone, water, natural gas, etc. We'll see how it goes. I want to get our food bill down to $250/month.

The good thing is I have 4 kg of chicken breasts in the freezer and work has ground beef on for a $1/lb so I'm buying all we can manage on Thursday and maybe more on Friday we'll see.

Anyway I have to get some jammies on some kid.
