I applied for two jobs today... the first at a daycare, part-time and the second at Staples part-time.
We had gone to pick up the application at the daycare, then went to a laundromat to clean our king comforter, since our washer isn't big enough and Baby Kitty puked on it while we were gone.... while there I filled it out and after the wash was done I went back and returned it.

While I was at the laundromat, Spyros ran to Ace and Staples to return a few items... when he got back he told me Staples was hiring, so we headed there after I returned the first application and I had to fill out a profile/ap. on the computer.
I had never done this before, and I found the continuous questions about stealing money/merchandise and starting fights with customers/other employees annoying, but I did like that I could type out the personal information instead of having to write it all.

We've been tempted numerous times since we've gotten back to eat out, since we need to go shopping and we had been spoiled with the foods we ate one vacation, but we've held strong and have been making meals at home.... This may sound like a small thing but it really does add up!

Simple/Frugal Thought of the Day: Try cutting down on eating out... even if you use some convenience meals (like frozen lasagna) instead it will still be cheaper then dining in a resturant. I have read numerous times about people who only eat out on specail ocassions (birthdays, anniversaries), and I would like to get it that way for us too.
