New Beginnings

Me, being spiritual and all, went to the volunteer appreciation party last night for one of the ministries of the church. Being there, I was given a prophecy that I was going to start living different. I guess one of the ways is learning how to cook on a budget. One of my best friends showed me how she plans her meals on a calendar so she knows what to shop for instead of just wandering in the store trying to figure it out from there. It's going to be interesting. So far I haven't kept real good to the schedule but the great thing about it is it's flexible so the days and meals can be changed around.
Also too starting to look for no name brand name stuff,not that I didn't before. But I wasn't as aware of it before.

A tip-every time you go to the grocery store or say zellers pick yourself up a 10 gift card, that way at the end of the year you will be able to have something for presents or be able to shop for presents. I had read that tip in a magazine about a year and a half ago and it's awesome.

Take care

So far the resolution I'm making for the new year, is to actually go workout with Sue. I'm going to aim for twice a week.

Have a Happy New Year

Sincerely,

DJ
