Thrifty Thursday 3/4
Good morning. Today is going to be a good day here. The temps are suppose to get into the upper 30's to lower 40's with sunshine. I have to work 8 hours and it's payday for me so I'll be going to the bank after work. I already put dishes away, did my exercises, and ate my breakfast. When I get home tonight I need to get grocery list done and match my coupons to the sales, fix dinner, clean out the pantry and start on the cabinets. Later tonight I plan on getting in some reading and maybe a tv show if anything worth watching is on. Hope everyone has a easy day.

I am up, had my coffee, and I am going to do tons of housework. Hubby is off Friday through Sunday and the weather is going to be great (highs in the low 70's). We are going to work in the yard, ride the Harleys, and take a leatherworking class Saturday morning.
I am also going to bake some blueberry breakfast bars for something to eat quick in the mornings. Whatever I decide to cook for dinner tonight and tomorrow night, I will make double so we can heat and eat with little trouble over the weekend. I KNOW we will be tired.Mary

Catching up on housework and running errands around town (Walmart return and Sprint store to get phone fixed). I have to take DS2 and DD3 out to get more driving time. My goal is to have them both get their lic by the end of the month. Dinner will be pickle baked chicken, mashed potatoes and green beans.

Have one load of laundry going.
Easy dinner. (Yay!)
Still cleaning and organizing before we leave to go home. Working in the extra bedroom, which turned into a catch-all while we were here. Yikes.

Thursday, 3/4
Today I'll be working at my part-time job, quite a bit of paperwork & reports to do. Hopefully I can get out of here by 3:30, then 45 minutes drive back home.
Have an early dinner.
Visit my friend, her daughter is going to trim my hair tonight.
Hope everybody has a wonderful day.

Last school day of the week for us. Made asparagus and mushrooms for our veggie last night, so just nuked some with pepper jack cheese on top for breakfast!!
Have three preschool teachers from another school visiting our classroom today. I am going home at lunchtime - think the virus has come back and I am going to head back to bed. Will not be kissing or breathing on anyone today that's for sure.
DH and I are continuing to clean up for our company next weekend - thankfully we started early. I was going to have another yard sale on Saturday - instead I am going to sleep in.
Not doing much today - only thing I must do is reserve a rental car for the funeral on Sunday on Oahu.Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

Glad to be home! Went to work as usual today. Picked up all sorts of junk food this morning for my kids' sleepovers tomorrow night. Need to make sure they are "sufficiently" fed! lol
I also stopped in at PetCo and bought some floor cleaner for wood floors to get rid of pet odors. My boy dogs keep marking in the same spots, and while it looks clean, it SMELLS! Hope it works!
Tonight I need to do laundry, mop my floors, clean the bathrooms, and clean my laundry room.
Have a good night!

I woke up with an ingrown toe nail, so my chores today took me longer than usual.
After making lunch, I went ahead and did two more cabinet doors. After that, I took a break and then paid bills. I put $150 into savings and pretty much left the rest of the cash in both accounts alone.
Now it's dinner making time, then putting the kids to bed and spending time with DH.Wife to DH since 10/31/2002!
