It is down to the wire: Week 52 is starting tomorrow! I am in the midst of catching up and working on the spreadsheet. All will be updated shortly!! I have to say that after a year of keeping track, it was an extremely good learning experience and one of those things, like taking ballet when you’re young, it keeps up your posture; because once it is instilled in you it becomes second nature.

This year I have not only kept track of my food but other necessities such as pet food, household needs and gas. This will be another lifetime all together, but alas, I know what it takes to survive and looking back it looks easier to cut certain items I spent money on but did not really need. Ah wisdom from learning and knowing!

More to come!!
