Birthday celebrations
My birthday and my husband’s birthday are just a couple days apart, so we usually celebrate together. We weren’t planning on doing anything this year, though, because things are pretty tight around here what with no more overtime at work and having to pay for things like grad school and Christmas.
But as I was going through our budget, I noticed that we should have about $50 extra at the end of this month, thanks to the lower home insurance quote we took advantage of and the 0% balance transfer offer we got on our credit cards.
That’s enough to order a pizza, some wings, some Coke, and rent a couple of DVDs — in other words, a perfect birthday night for us. We’re simple folks at heart, so even something like this would be enjoyable. I can’t wait! (We celebrate on New Year’s Eve, btw.)

Sometimes an evening in IS the best thing. I so prefer those times with my wife, these days.

That’s what we ended up doing, and it was wonderful!
