I just really enjoyed Daddy-daughter time with MOG (My Oldest Girl) last night. We did our typical dinner out then Half Price Books. She’s figured out that I will always buy her books. But lately I’ve given her a $10 limit each time. She’s getting really good at balancing price vs. value to stay within her budget. It’s cool to watch. Of course, a better financial lesson might be to not go out to eat every week. Oh, well. Baby steps.

I think I’ve planned the perfect Friday night with my honey… doing laundry, popping popcorn, watching a video rental and trading footrubs. Folks, this is why weekends were invented.
