67% of my spending last week was on food. I will need to slow down and stay out of the grocery store for the rest of the month next week or so.
On a different note, my favourite Aunt turned 70 this past week and I realized that I have never taken her out for a meal. I have taken her to do her grocery shopping and multiple trips to Ikea but never for food. So I took steps to change that. We went to an All-U-Can-Eat Japanese restaurant. This restaurant came highly recommended by 2 co-workers. It is a little pricey so we went for lunch instead of dinner. Diva & Princess really enjoyed themselves, eating 6 bowls of ice cream each for dessert. The food was great, my only complaint was that delivery was a little slow.
On the exercise front … week 2′s workout is hard. It was brutal today. I was sweating like a beast. It was ugly. It almost had me contemplating going back to week 1. I will persevere, but I will not be happy about it. There will be pain tomorrow.

I love how you keep track of every penny during the week.
I’m trying, NOW, with my own budget thing and following Dave Ramsey’s plan.
I have too. When I lose track my money seems to grow wings and flies out of my wallet and bank account.
Good luck, tracking your money is time consuming but so worth it.
