List the last ten things you paid for

Black Label? Isn’t that Scotch, not bourbon?

This is hard!

today…I’ve spent no money
yesterday…I didn’t spend any money
Tuesday…tank of gas, almond snickers bar and a lotto ticket
Monday…bag of nuts, dinner at T-Rex, lent $40 to a friend
Sunday…money in the offering plate at church, mushrooms & leeks at the farmer’s market, milk & wine & misc. groceries from Trader Joe’s

Just looked at my debit card history, and it’s pretty boring. Three doctor visits for my wife and daughter, three trips to the drugstore to pick up prescriptions from said doctor visits, $23 for dog grooming/nail trimming, the mortgage, $2 for cheap disposable bowls that my mother-in-law needed for some reason, and my wife and kid’s lunch at Rosa’s Mexican Cafe. Dull as dishwater.
