Persimmon – hah! Haven’t tried that one yet!

We came across a “pomelo” though the other day and that was a fun one! Like a giant grapefruit, only much sweeter :)

That’s a helluva first trip abroad for your nephew!

And this week I hope you’re able to put a little aside for yourself :)

Money I loved spending this week: I purchased luggage for my 14 year old nephew who’s traveling to Iceland and Sweden this Christmas – first trip abroad.
Money I hated spending this week: I hate spending money on gas for my car. I just don’t just the whole industry. Though did most of my Thanksgiving Day dinner shopping at a grocery store that gives points toward gas – this week paid $1.93/gallon. Yeah!!!
Money I was surprised to spend this week! No surprises.
Money I knew I’d spend this week and am okay with: Planned to spent money for Thanksgiving Dinner – I host family every year.
Money I spent towards my goals/dreams: Spent nothing on my goals/dreams.

Good exercise.

Ugh yeah, they make billions a year off that :( I hope you can get them to clear it though! I find If I call and ask nicely they’ll refund ’em so long as it’s not a recurring thing… In fact, just did that the other week when I realized I was getting dinged monthly charges for not having enough in my checking? I’d never been charged before so wasn’t sure what was going on, but they cleared the last 3 fees and I had to adjust the way I was managing stuff (it was for my business accounts that I admittedly don’t monitor a closely as my personal ones).

At any rate, sorry to hear you’re dealing with it all, but thank you for participating in this exercise today! Just read up on your answers on your blog post :)

I don’t know what’s better – that hefty bonus or the look that’s gonna be on your friend’s face when you pass her that gift card :)

I HOPE THAT OPERA IS AMAZING!!

What a nice treat for you!! :)

Good job on the food change up! You should blog about it if you haven’t already in case it helps others in your situation too :)

Beautiful :)
