~Frugal Friday at last! DH is home today and doing the homeschooling this morning. I'm going out in this nasty weather to get groceries.
We had planned a trip to the zoo today before we knew the weather would be this bad so that obviously off.
Dh surprised me this morning with two little gifts(that he got 50% off!). It's our special little thing that he buys me a jewelry trinket on Friday 13ths.
I'd forgotten that there was a Friday 13th this week.
So besides the shopping, just an average day here, cleaning, sewing, movies or video games and homemade pizza for dinner.
Keep warm, dry and safe everyone!~~Constance

Woke up at the crack of dawn this morning to make a huge breakfast for DH to take to work. His department takes turns bringing breakfast every friday. Just eggs, sausage and home made fried potatoes, so it didn't cost too much,
Major cleaning today because BIL (aka roomate) is having a party tonight.
Really need to run to the post office and ship some stuff I sold, but not sure if I have enough cash on hand.
Need to cook a bunch of ground beef before it goes bad.
Clean out the fridge.
Sell some stuff on Craigslist.
I want to get my sewing machine out if I can find the time.
Don't have to worry about dinner, because we're going to the in-laws' house for dinner so that BIL can have the house to himself.

Hi everyone. I worked 8 hours today as usual. When I got off work I had to pay the electric bill(nasty thing), and fill the gas tank up and then I came straight home. Having leftovers for dinner, doing dishes, folding some more clothes and then heading to bed to read a litlle before going to sleep. It was a gorgeous day today and the house is so warm I should sleep like a baby.

It was a lovely fall day here, but sadly, I had to go to the store. Remind myself again why I hate grocery shopping on Fridays. Ughhhhhhhh.I did pick up two turkeys- .40 a lb. I thought that was a pretty good deal. I also ran some clothes to the cleaners,stopped at the bank, and ran by the accountant.Durn paperwork.My sister went with me to swim this evening. Getting ready to head off to bed, busy day tomorrow. Good night.

I have never joined in on one of these before so here it goes:
~DH got home @ 7am from work...
~Then I made breakfast. Scrambled eggs and pancakes and morningstar farms sausage (shh he did not know!!)
~Went to bed.
~Woke up @ 4pm and put the chuck roast in the crock pot.
~Sat on the computer for a bit...
~Did the dishes, cleaned the cat litter, took out the trash.
Tonight I still have to:
~Clean up my kitchen shelves
~Fold the laundry (washed clothes in the bathtub last night, my legs are sore!! LOL!)
and thats it
It has been a nice day!
