12:30 p.m. — Lunchtime! I heat up my prepped meal of chicken and white rice and have a plum, too. So plain, but I try to remind myself of how healthy I'm eating and how much money I am saving by not eating out.

8:30 a.m. — I drop my son off at summer camp and make my way into the office by 8:30. The majority of my colleagues are traveling for work right now, and the one colleague still in town is away in meetings today, so it's nice and quiet. I take care of office expenses, prepare an item to ship internationally, update some internal documents, conference in for a meeting, and work on scheduling some appointments and meetings for July. I eat some red seedless grapes for a morning snack.

12:30 p.m. — We arrive at K.'s parents' house, where we hang out for the afternoon. The cousins play together and the grown-ups catch up. We're planning a trip to Disney World this November, so we discuss some options for accommodations and talk about how much fun the boys will have. 12:35 p.m. — I had a banana for breakfast and a nectarine for a snack, but since we still need to go grocery shopping, I head to the store on my lunch break and buy a Caesar salad wrap, some BBQ chips, and a fizzy grapefruit drink . I also use my lunch break to order groceries online. I'll pick these up on my way home from work, which saves me so much time! The total cost is $143.28 for a week's worth of groceries.

6:30 p.m. — D. and I get home, and he heads out to play with his neighborhood friends. I get started on dinner and also hard-boil some eggs for lunch tomorrow. K. is outside mowing the lawn, so I try to time dinner so that it's done when he's done. He finishes the lawn, comes inside to take a shower, and when he's done, dinner is served! After dinner, we walk the dogs and then I put D. to bed. After showers and sexy time, K. and I head to bed around 9.6:20 a.m.
