Lately I have been grocery shopping on Monday mornings after I drop the boys off at school. Tomorrow, though, I have a meeting at work at 10am, which wouldn't leave me a whole lot of time to grocery shop. I know my energy would be really low after the meeting (around lunch time) so I was dreading shopping tomorrow. 

Well, around 8:45pm tonight I had a burst of energy and decided to go to Kroger. I whizzed through the store in 30 minutes and was done! No shopping tomorrow! Yea!

Plus I got some good deals on meat (chicken and london broil on sale, shrimp $1 off, and I got the hot dogs for free with a "best customer" coupon from Kroger). All in all I spent $112--pretty good with two birthday dinners to cook this week! (Aaron is pretty easy to please though with his yearly (and weekly?) request of Sloppy Joes. Plus I have a little money leftover to get him a special birthday dessert. :) 

One of our friends from church offered to bring us dinner this week as I am near the very end of my pregnancy (37 weeks on Tuesday) so that is super nice too!
