My resolution for the month of January was no eating out. Well I pretty much failed! I did really good at the beginning of the month, but I didn't succeed in going the whole month. I found that Friday nights are the hardest for me. After working all week, the last thing I want to do is cook something and then have to clean up after we are done. So I would much rather run through the drive thru or pick up a pizza. And speaking of pizza, I learned something else this month. It is WAY CHEAPER to go to Little Caesars and pick up a pizza and bread sticks than it is to buy a frozen pizza or the take and bake pizzas! So yes, this past Friday night I picked up Little Caesars, BUT I would have spent more money if I had stopped at the store and picked up a pizza. And added bonus, we didn't have to wait for it to cook, it was ready when we got home. And if you have spent any time with a hungry Lyla you can appreciate that! She does not enjoy waiting for things to cook. So you win some, you lose some. I am at least trying to continue to only eat out once a week if I can help it and I think that does make a difference.
Next up for my February Resolution is mailing letters the old fashion way to my friends and family. I think I will have better luck with this one! I just need to go get some stamps!
