I'm going to take DD to a nearby ocean museum/center today. We have a membership, so unless I have to pay for parking somewhere, the cost to us to day is nothing. (Well, it'll use some gas to get there, but that's already been paid for.) I'll bring along water and some sandwiches or snacks.

Other than, DD has dance later this afternoon, and we'll have dinner at home. Pretty mellow day.

--later--

Broke down and bought DD and I some ice cream while we were out.

Spent $3.26 mailing books to a couple of people. But the big spend for the day - $353.80 on prescriptions. $80 of that covers three months worth of two different prescriptions. Of the other $273.80, I should get back all but $40 (and they will hopefully last me at least two months - they're for meds I use as needed for my migraines). So it's money spent today, but ultimately I'm only out $120 altogether.

I also set up my ING account to pull over some money each month from my checking account. It's not much, but I figured if I took a small amount (a) I wouldn't even notice it being gone from my checking account, and (b) earning interest on even a small amount is better than earning no interest on it while it sits in checking. I figure I can use the money I accrue in the ING account for Christmas gifts.
