Not too much else going on, just going to enjoy my little corner of the world.
Have a great day friends.

We're doing more work in the yard today. Still doing major clearing and pruning. Pulling out the chainsaw today to get the stuff the loppers couldn't. I'll post some pics later. I need to also finish digging up some hostas and dividing them. If not today then by tomorrow.
I have the best neighbor who is going to let me borrow her tiller whenever I am ready to do my flower beds. I've got to get all these sections cleared first though.
I love working in the yard and being outside. It's perfect weather to work outside too. It's about 53 degrees out and sunny.
Wish I was hitting some yardsales, but did that last week and didn't do too well in finding much.
Have a great Saturday.

It rained all night, and then Carl got called to a job. He's been on call for sooo long(he picked up other people's weeks) trying to make extra $$ to pay off the cc.
So I am not complaining that he got called since it means more money to pay it down
I'm on my third load of laundry~just getting it dried right now..
Did a load of dishes and bleached it till it shined.
The only store I have to go to today if any, is Rite aid to pick up water filters.
I will also need to go to the mall and exchange shoes but shouldn't be any money spent there.
I'm about to do a Firm workout tape, then pull out the laundry, put away clean clothes, wash mirrors, bathroom, floors, make the bed, dust and open windows for some fresh air!!
I'll prep some english muffin pizza's so i can make it as soon as Carl gets back.
If I get bored I'll do crunches and organize my coupon binder.

Hi Ladies! We hit a so called "estate sale" at 6 a.m. this morning and then went to McDonald's until the next yard sale started at 7 a.m.. We did manage to find a gas weed eater for $7, ski goggles for $1, several brand new VHD tapes put out by Feature Films for Families for $3.50 each and a Brita pitcher with 3 new fliters for $5. The kids scored getting free sleeping bags from some college students who were moving. We hit the Goodwill store and found a beautiful spoon rack, a thermos container and some more hangers. Next we were off to do some grocery shopping and found Easter grab bags full of candy and toys for $2, deoderant that was free or close to it with my coupons, Miricle Whip for .50 each (my DH is happy), and some great buys on fruit, bread and cereal. I had coupons with me that brought the gallons of milk down to .39 each! Woohoo!
WTG DEBBIE! I had to work yesterday but in the evening we went to Walmart and I found material to recover my day bed...clearanced at 1.00 a yard...I bought the bolt for 8.00!!
WOOOHOOOO
