Sigh. I've been trying to be frugal. I took a major paycut 3 years ago...lost my job last year...and am looking at taking a paycut at my new job. Tonight at church (!?) someone took my older son's backpack. It was only 4 months old. He had his cell phone, a baseball cap, a new spray can of sunblock, and a book in it. It's not a fortune...a loss of about $90...but every penny counts!
Thankfully my younger son had borrowed the older one's graphing calculator, so it is safe here at home.
It's these little things that drive me nuts. When you don't have "extra" money, little things like this mean you have to figure out what you can do without in order to replace what was taken. Still, I was thrilled to find out that the calculator was safe at home!
