October 1- Not a good start. $55 DD15's yearbook, $18 DD15's PSAT, $4.50 2 kids wanted to buy lunch (we don't do this but once a month maybe twice for DD15) $14.50 school photos for DD8. Really messed up my back today (this is an ongoing and expensive problem) so I absolutely couldn't cook, plus I was supposed to get groceries and that was out. I barely made it to get the kids dinner, so a pizza at the drive thru $8 (DH isn't home or he'd have handled dinner.) However I subbed yesterday and today so I made some money (preschool, so just about $50 for the 2 days) and will be face painting at a festival tomorrow and will get $1 a kid, so that is good (hope it's busy!) And finally, the best news of the day...over the weekend I checked out state's unclaimed property and DH had one thing. It didn't say what it was but I filled out the form to get it and we got it today. It was a check for $338.88!!! DH and I are going to dinner and a movie tomorrow and putting the rest away.
October 2- Woke up wanting to go to the emergency room for my back, but had committed to being the face painter at a local festival so I pushed though and took my DD15 for help and we went. I gave her $4 for food out of what we made. DH and I were going to go out on a date but I couldn't hardly move so when I came hom I got inot bed and have been here since. So not quite a no spend day, but had she not gone with me there would have been no way I could have done it and wouldn't have made anything so it was money well spent. PLUS, I am starting to feel better so that is a $150 ER copay saved.
October 3- Apple Fest, I am clumping it all together at about $80
We ate, we bought a custome made sign for my DH's office and he bought me a really cool but totally unnecessary gift. BUT, it was an amazingly fun day. $100.52 @ Sam's. $3 ice cream for the kids at Sam's. $2 snack for DH. $20 gas and $84 groceries.
Need to get back on track tomorrow!!!
October 4-$0 
"Technically"
DH had a coupon for lunch. He called and asked me to come and said he was going with or without me so I wouldn't be blowing a $0 day. He said he missed me cause I was in bed with my back most of the weekend.
How can you say no to that? So I went with him. Normally I'd count it but with the coupon and it coming out of his weekly spening money... oh then we got tickets to see a movie after work. We went to see "Life As We Know It," great movie! We went with the free preview passes.
October 5-$0 Calling it early today. Wasn't planning on spending anything anwyay, but woke up to a mouse in our house
so I baracaded myself in my bedroom and won't be leaving till DH gets home to check on me (and the traps) later this afternoon. Hopefully he will have caught it by then cause he has to work overnight tonight and while I wish I wasn't, I am so fearful of those little buggers!

- but I think hot water is definitely a need vs a want
But a water heater is definitely needed....unless cold showers are warranted in your house.
