This last week seemed to be our week for losing little bits of money for no good reason.

The first bit to slip though our fingers was a $4.75 fee to the currency exchange to get new registration stickers for DH's car. I called it the Lazy and Distracted Fee. Luckily it motivated me to get on the ball and mail in my renewal form in time to get my new sticker in the mail for free.

The second was more frustrating. After a long day of work the other day, DH stopped off on the way home to pick up Subway (no cooking that night since we were about to leave town and just got the kitchen cleared up) He also stopped off for drinks at the 7-11 next door and offered to pick me up a pint of Ben & Jerry's, because it had been that kind of day.

Well he gets home, and the carton of ice cream is nowhere to be found in all of his piles of stuff! He realized he must have paid for it and then left it on the counter at the 7-11. It was late and it would have been a 30 minute round trip to go back for it, so I tried to just let it go, but that one smarted! Over $4 for Chocolate Fudge Brownie I wasn't even going to get to enjoy!

The kicker is that DH came home the next day and sheepsihly told me that the Ben & Jerry's did make it home, it just rolled underneath the seat of his car and laid there melting all night. Thank goodness the seal held! That would have been an awful mess.
