(Almost) each week in 2012, I’ll post an Activity of the Week. They won’t be huge things, just something to move you in a different direction or give you a new perspective or shake things up in some way.

Here’s the Activity for Week 29: Go without spending any money for a day. Of course, sunk costs like rent, utilities, and previously purchased food are fine. But don't hit the coffee shop or the vending machine. Or stop to run an errand or decide to catch a movie.

Accountability: I am caught up! I know my voting information. I finally bought batteries and visited a farmstand. I read my hometown paper during a visit.
