so I'm getting ready to go to work and making a list of places I have to stop before getting to the office when it dawns on me
oh crap, it's a holiday - banks are closed
just great. Now I have to borrow money and add to what I have to pay my mom back on Tuesday when I get paid...but at least I'll have money to stop at the grocery store to pick up food for Sunday's Board meeting after church.
AND...I need to make my budget and menu for the Thanksgiving Dinner that's going to be the Sunday after next. Last year I asked for too much. Hopefully this year I won't ask for too little. Where's the freaking happy medium when it comes to properly budgeting?! Need to call the Honey Baked Ham Store to put in my order...or tempt the store gods and order a fully cooked meal from Albertsons. We did that a couple years ago and they failed to mention the fully cooked meal was FROZEN. That was a very stressful Thanksgiving to say the least.
