House deep cleaned for Thanksgiving company, exterminator out & spiders be-goned, junque' booth restocked w/more Christmas goodies (in the attic must get down), shredder fixed or replaced, room made in freezer in order to buy spiral ham for Thanksgiving, four Christmas items wrapped, get definite time set for Thanksgiving dinner and get ahold of the outlying family members who we only see/talk to at this time and give them the location for the meal (my house) and time to arrive, give out assignments &/or solicit which family will be bringing which items on the TG menu. See if the boys can or will have the giving of thanks day off. Make list of yard items that need to be taken care of before the guests arrive (four o'clocks taken down as they are slimy, wilty from freezing) - leaf bags to curb or to FIL's house for trashmen there to haul off - trash comes w/water service there. Start counting my blessings.

Okay, enough procrastination. Here's the weeks goals:
1. Find Rite Aid receipt and file for rebates. I seem to have lost the darn thing.
2. Take out $100 towards grocery budget and go back to using a cash only system for groceries and entertainment (I already have entertainment cash out). Debit card will continue to be used for gas purchases. CC for online Christmas shopping only.
3. Remain on my healthy eating plan.
