After all the trials and tribulations of April, I'm very much looking forward to May. Dakota getting straightened out on meds, me getting straightened out on meds, the divorce being done (hopefully - or at least have the papers signed), and a rebuilding of my finances.
I will have 2 debts paid off by 5/1 and will be able to start rebuilding my emergency fund and my sinking funds, both of which I had to drain to pay for the divorce. So my poor snowball is on hold after those two debts are gone, until I can get my coffers filled again.
But I found this cool website that I think will save me money on the grocery front. Monthlymealplanner.com
This site is free, which is pretty freakin awesome! You can plan out a month of meals, choose from different recipes, and it compiles your shopping list for you. It's missing some features that it's paid counterpart EZ Mealz has, but hey, it's free! Who cares?
Oh, and we got our first Signature Box from Angelfood Ministries. They say that this box will feed a family of 4 for a week, but with the amount in there, I think we can stretch it to a week and a half! I'm really excited about this, and can't wait to order the May box. They change it up every month, so it's not the same old food every time. If you are on a budget, you should really check them out! There are no income restrictions, and anyone can order. You wouldn't wanna show up in your luxury SUV and designer clothes to pick up the food, but they ask no questions and the food is good quality and healthy. They even have food boxes for people on special diets and those who have allergies!
Anyone else want a free plug for a great product or service? I seem to be full of advertisements lately!
