    Arrow Saving Saturday, August 6th

    Good Morning, I hope it's okay that I started this thread? I come to post and see that the weekends lately, no one has posted.


    I've some things to get done today and hopefully I will [making a list here seems to be a tremendous help in keeping me on track!]


    - Get keys from Frances
    - Gather Betty's clothes, etc. [find list]
    - Read paper/put it in Jackie's door


    - Clean out vacuum cleaner[2]
    - Find place to store extra groceries
    - Address one postcard [for swap]


    - Write down 5 account login info's to keep
    - Go up and see Betty at the nursing home
    - Check later to see if leak is still stopped [under sink]


    Hope your Saturday is a nice one [it's really humid and raining here but it could be far worse so I'm not gonna complain!]

    I had a sleepless night, so I got up a little late. Went to the grocery store and spent only $24 that included chicken breasts, coffee, milk, foil, baking powder, 2 packs of cheese, 3 cans tomatoes, pound of beans, pound of rice, bunch of asparagus. Did all the laundry and went to Home Depot and bought my son a mulching lawn mower for his birthday. Keeping the grandkids tonight. Not doing much else.

    Slept in - though had a restless night and sleep in this am. Lazed/lounged on couch watching movies with DH and caught up with friends on the phone. Prepped a nice snacky type dinner for DH and I: cheese & crackers with deli meats, garden salad, cold shrimp with cocktail sauce, fresh fruit for dessert and wine
