Saving log - $3 tip box
Spending log - $1.40 coffee + $15 lunch
Bits and pieces on the day before the 4th:
Server room got warm in the early morning hours, so as I walked in, I was told: no Internet, no SQL, no access to data, email wonky. But an hour later, everything was okay. Darn! No computer data would have made it the shortest work day ever for me.
Found 3 pennies in front of the place I ate lunch at. Another homeless person was asking for change, but I thought better of it to give her the pennies after getting yelled at for giving so little the last time.
Pointed out to DH one of the green worms that was snacking on broccoli leaves so he knows what he is looking for. The broccoli plant that nearly got nibbled to death now has a little crown of new leaves.
Had to move $400 from savings back to checking. It felt a bit like failure, but I remembered that the original plan when I increased my withholding to the stratosphere was that I would make up money shortfalls with savings. The fact that I started the withholding April 1 and managed not to seriously cut into savings until now is doing well.

Four years ago my Day of Caring project was to go out with some Real Change vendors to talk to business owners about supporting Real Change. Scary for a non salesperson, but very memorable and I learned a lot.
