I've been able to hold off on much spending so far, but my actual birthday isn't until tomorrow. The spending to this moment has been at Jack in the Box and Costco (two 36 packs of Diet Pepsi). We'll see how I make it through tomorrow... Hi Ron,

It is really hard not treat myself to something nice for my birthday. But, I DID just have to buy a new mattress so I guess it will have to do for now. They aren't cheap. Coupled with the second semester private school tuition I just paid for my three kids and, well, you get the point. It feels like buying a new car, but never getting to drive it. Nice blog you have going on here. I'll check back often! BTW -- Happy Birthday! We’re in the same boat age wise, though I have one up on you (turning 42 in a few days).
