I AM: I spent hours wild black berry picking. Free food is my favorite. We eat the berries, we made a cobbler, and homemade black berry syrups! So many possibilities.

Been pantry shopping! I’ve also been living on “toss-in” (I also call it shlumgulium) soup – basically if it looks like it would go well in a soup, I’ll chop it up and throw it in with stock. It’s how minestrone used to be made.

Started a second part time job, courtesy and cashier, five minutes from home!

I went to Goodwill and thrift shops to find a suit (jacket, pants) my son needed for orchestra and shoes at Goodwill for $2.50 to put taps on for clogging classes. I also found $5 anatomy study cards for my son ($25 on Amazon). All of 300+ cards were there and in great shape!

Saw a tip on here that any money you have left over at the end of the month to put it in savings!! I saved 721.00 this month and already transferred it to savings. Hope to continue this

I’m researching how to make my own washer fluid for the car. I hate all the plastic bottles that are used for everything, and one by one I’m figuring out ways to make my own stuff so I don’t have to have so many plastic bottles!
