1. The Christmas tree is still in excellent shape, and in working order. I finished decorating it with much-loved decorations; no purchases necessary.
2. I've made our Christmas cards from supplies on hand. I spent today finishing them up. Even had enough envelopes. They will go out in tomorrow's mail.
3. We had a car accident this week. Carey was driving, and apparently we were in the blind spot of the driver on our left. That driver began pulling into our lane and there was a minor collision and we were forced off the road.
All things considered, this made the frugal list because it wasn't as bad as it could have been. Nobody is hurt, and the car is still drivable (after purchasing a new rear passenger-side tire). Carey has gone over it with a fine-toothed comb, and he's sure there is nothing more than a tiny bit of cosmetic damage, which we can live with as the car is ten years old.
4. I washed my makeup brushes this week. They have lasted forever, and are still in great shape.
5. I'm not sure when I had my last haircut.
