After all the hoopla about the 6 - 10 inches and big gusty winds ... Yeah, we maybe got 4 inches? I will say though, it is cold!

I cashed out for another AGC from PerkTv last night - about five minutes before NE came over. So, that adds $25 to my 2015 extra money total.

I somehow managed (I think) to not go into the next data bucket on Ting this month. Which means I had $9 to put in my Remote Starter fund in January.
This is a good thing because ...
I'm probably going to have to WAM from that December category to put into groceries.
I tried to talk NE into just using what we already have on hand (other than for the Martinelli's sparkling juice) for NYE dinner. He was really set on doing the homemade pizza. Sigh.
So I'll be getting a Chef Boyardee kit, cheese, and a Martinelli's. He's picking up the hamburger for himself. (We'll split the cost.) I already have mushrooms and pineapple.

My mini-goal 1 update =
So far, so good! My place was pretty picked up today, so there wasn't much cleaning/picking up to do. So ...I spent about 20 minutes working on my to shred pile. There's still probably about 3 days worth of 20 minute sessions left to go.

At work today I didn't have a book with me and was desperately bored. So ... I decided to try to see if I could possibly get the Kindle app on my computer without having to download/install. It worked! So now I won't be quite so obvious about reading a book ...

I'm in two Bounts challenges this week. One is the 50k steps by Friday, and the other is walk/run a 5k by Friday.
I've got about 17k steps so far, and am hoping that Friday will be decent weather wise so I can go for a 3 mile walk in the local park. That would be a cool 100 bonus points between the two challenges.

It is SO cold in my bedroom/office. If I was planning on staying here another year (in this apartment) I'd invest in some weatherstripping or something. I put a towel at the bottom of the door (one that leads outside) but am not sure what to do about the windows. I think that's where most of the cold is coming from.
I can mostly cover up, but my hands are what bug me the most. I think I had fingerless gloves somewhere ...
Snowstorm! Well ... not really. :)

I sympathize with your draft problems. I once lived in an apartment where I had to stuff newspaper in the gaps around the door. It worked. It wasn't pretty, and it was a pain re-do it every time I used the door. But it did make the place warmer.

I don't think anyone can tell from the outside if you do the hair dryer part. The inside will look messy if you don't trim the edges. If you do a neat job, it's fine. ( always my challenge.)
