Day 70 19.31            (9.31)  We celebrated today!

Altogether, we were about $2.76 over-budget during these days, and since I had $13.26 left in my slush fund (which comes from the pennies we saved each day up until day 52), 13.26 - 2.76 = $10.50 left in the slush fund. 

That means we were able to stick to our budget over the course of the whole 10 weeks, with a little to spare. 

I have a really good feeling about it.

I also have experienced a strange sense of some kind of aimlessness over the last few days since the finale of my project.  I asked the children their thoughts about 10for10for10, and will write about them in my next post...stay tuned, kids never say what you think they will say...
