I posted last week about ideas for keeping warm this winter, and got inspired by everyone. 
: Part of my problem was that I was in a funk about my house, feeling like it wasn't nice enough, or pretty enough, or whatever. So . . . in the last few days, I have:
-- Put up curtains ($5) in bedroom (what a difference!)
-- Brought up our old bedroom furniture, which helped us get organized and makes the room look MUCH better
-- Repurposed an old TV stand as a nightstand, adding space for my sweaters and sweatshirts
-- Brought up an old rug for the living room. After a good vacuum, it looks nice and helps a bit with the cold floor
-- Found all the warm PJ's I had stored in the basement!
-- Used an old bookcase for a desk, which allowed us to move the computer out of our bedroom!
-- Cleaned out all the paperwork, which allowed me to file for a couple of medical expense reimbursements totaling around $150
We've done a few other frugal activities this weekend, and I'm feeling really good about it!
