    Default Miserly Monday

    Morning everyone! Happy Labor Day!

    I don't know what I'm doing today. SIL and her 2 kids spent the night so we will probably take the kids somewhere to run and get worn out.

    I need to do dishes too.

    Hope you all have a good day!

    Happy Labor Day! It is definitely labor day here, since I have to work. But, I took yesterday off, so I feel like getting back to it.

    I have to get groceries today, so let's hope that I can do it as frugal as possible.

    My list:
    make bed
    pick up
    pay credit card bill
    get groceries
    organize bills

    Gonna be frugal one for us. Have to do some cleaning (ugh...bathrooms, kitchen, laundry room) and some paperwork (double ugh...). I did notice that Bealls' clearance went from 50 to 60% off the red tag so I need to try on my new clothes and see if it's worth my time and trouble to take em back in and return and repurchase for the difference. I might need to wait till they do the 25% or 50% off the red tag......the only thing is I can't wear em till it gets there.

    Happy Labor Day! I woke up and forgot it was Monday! I wondered why the weekly newscasters were working on a weekend! LOL

    Today I am meeting my Dad for lunch and just hanging out with him.

    Later I'll make dinner with DH and just enjoy our day off!

    Today I am enjoying my new furniture and seeing if maybe I can find some throw pillows or maybe a blanket to drape over the back.

    My list:

    Pick up the house
    mop floor
    put laundry away
    go for a walk

    my list includes hanging out around the house, even though it is a beautiful day I don't feel like going anywhere. I am going to make my bed, and do more laundry, maybe pick up around the house. read some it is a day off after all.

    It's been a rainy Monday here.

    We had a BBQ to go to this afternoon so I had tons to do this
    morning. I was able to catch up on my ironing which made
    me feel alot better.

    While I was doing household chores DH went to the store for me
    & although I appreciate his effort, I prefer to do the shopping
    myself! Does that sound strange! Although I gave specific
    instructions on what stores to go to due to prices etc.

    We just got home from the BBQ & I just have on my robe & slippers now as I'm relaxing the rest of the evening. Everything
    is pretty caught up around the house so I'll just have some computer time & TV time to fit in.
