1/25 QOTD: Your splurge....
Friday night I ordered a "Track3" handheld device for tracking food, exercise, and blood sugars. At about $86 it isn't too huge a splurge but I consider it a splurge because I certainly could continue with my paper tracking system or I could take the time to use the free on-line systems (like Fitday) at night. Instead, I spent the money and I'll have this nifty little IT gadget with me and I can punch it all in during the day (including having it calculate the nutritional data for my homemade recipes!) and I can connect to my home PC at night if I want to print a report and so on. I sure hope it works as well as it says it does. I'll let you all know. T
I asked for and got a great armoire for Christmas from my DH. He bought it at JC Penney. It has drawers all the way to the floor, and I filled the entire thing! But that's probably partly because I still have a lot of jewelry that I had as a teenager, and I have all of my MIL's jewelry as well as some pieces that my Mom gave me. I put my scarves and wraps in the bottom two drawers. What I really like about it is that the side doors have several hooks for hanging necklaces. Most of the ones I saw had only 3 or 4 hooks. This one has 8 (or is it 10?) hooks in each door. It's really, really nice. I think it came in cherry and walnut finish. Mine's the walnut finish.

treading- I started using my fitday program again. I use a little notebook to jot down what I eat when I am away from home, then put it into the computer as soon as I get home. It's a pain in the butt, but it's working for me so far.
I haven't splurged on anything lately. I just found out that my job is being cut for next year, so I am trying to be very careful with every penny for the next five months while I am still working!
