You're always so helpful to others AND I agree adults need a treat as well.Quote:

I then mentioned the Dodge Charger so we went back to the town where I had my appointment to check it out, I think it was love at First sight for dh and I will admit it's a sweet looking car and so spacious. So anyways, we signed the paperwork and they will call once it's ready for pickup. So we are paying cash....phew....feels great but we officially need to rebuild savings accounts to replenish the money borrowed from them to buy the car.
Wishing everyone a great evening.
Congrats on the new car!!
yes congrats jasper on the new car
-well sold my puzzles all 27 of them for 16.00-i lowered the price down from 20.00 about a week ago -so here starts 2017 kijiji sales -and the woman who bought them was so happy -I told her its better than watching t.v sometimes and she said "I don't own a t.v" she was about 35-37 years old too -wow you don't hear of that too often
-supper was the lovely roast
-gee my daughter called when I was preparing supper and my new cordless phones have speakerphone -such a nice feature -I used it plus she was making pizza dough and she had her speakerphone on too
Fortinos did have the raspberry leaf tea in the Traditional Medicinals line! Happy me (hoping for some joint relief because it's been acting up during this fine cold snap). Bought the butter for the cookie recipe and a few other things.
Popped into Dollar Tree for mac & cheese boxes and caramels and had a look at Value Village's cold weather items-I almost went for a pair of tights but having purchased a brown pair for Mom, I did not want one more in that colour. Noticed the sign by entrance-Monday Jan. 9 is the 50% off clothing, accessories and shoes day! Club Cardholders, expect an e-mail to tell you that Sunday is the day to get your 50% off one day early. I looked through various clothing categories for possibilities-sweaters both pullover and cardigan, long sleeve tops/blouses, coats, dresses (for the fabric) and men's shirts. Noticed 5 short sleeve shirts, all have silk tags and look like summer casual tops in men's medium-too small to alter but 4 of them have same brand label and a couple of them are textured (like the orange shirt I bought in the spring at a rummage sale)-I am seriously debating a Sunday trip to try one of them on with plan to wear it with sweaters during winter. I looked at the men's dress shirts-did not see a pattern or colour worthy of my alteration efforts. Perhaps more stock will be on the racks by Sunday and I'll find something.
Pants-the navy ones look worn. Saw an old brand of wool pants in good condition but in black-not keen to have a 2nd pair. Might have to check out Talize when the weather warms up after Monday.
McDonald's is a very cozy/smaller location-liked the sloped bolster seat to lean on while waiting for my order to be made. Flooring has a curved plank floor in the dining areas looking like it's from a boat, plus large floor tiles near the entrance/order area. Love the long button tufted booth seat and the red wooden chairs. Angus meal was worth the time-was surprised that I managed to drink the entire medium size beverage. I'm impressed by the youth staff working at the location too. I had not realized all the combination possibilities for building an Angus burger as the kiosk screen showed. One day I'll try the kiosk to test the options.
I found out on Facebook today that two local businesses are closing. Ricki's in our mall will likely have a good sale before closing at the end of the month. Staples will close suddenly this Saturday. I bought my brand new computer tower and had them try to copy over from my old sYates and instal Windows on it. I bought my new computer system lass than a year ago.
Estevan had snowiest December in 200 years, I guess the 3 blizzards might have contributed tho that record, 52cm or 20.5" haha. That's when you exclude any showering piles, etc. There is so much snow that our son is sometimes concerned that there is too much snow when he tried to play in our yard. We had a very wet fall, so there is some concern about potential flooding if the snow melts too quickly in the spring.
Well off I fly today for a vacation with my sis-I am sure we will have a great time. Back Feb 1. Have a good month all. LB
Enjoy! I have been looking online and trying to plan something too :)Quote:

TGIF!!! Nice clear drive to work today. With Sunshine!!
Last night we went with our hockey team to see a hockey game. Then home to catch a bit of the last period and so on of the JR game. Good game!
Weekend plans- Hope painting is still on tomorrow. Hoping Rona is open this evening so we can pick colour and get paint tinted. Then home to prep room. Was a busier week then I thought.
Laundry- Lots to do.
Prep/plan meals for the week.
DS has 2 hockey games as well.
Enjoy the weekend everyone!
Laundry seems to be a never ending chore for many Mum's-particularly those with kids. I must say I am looking forward to no grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning or laundry for the rest of the month-unless I choose to wash my own on the ship-which I might as it will be cheaper- I feel the need to be frugal somewhere!
I realize I am fortunate to have the health, time and $ to travel so will appreciate it while it lasts. Anyway, I best do my third and final packing check, get ready and head to the airport. I grocery shopped for the family earlier this week( and circled good deals in the flyers that came yesterday as DH might not recognize a good price if he fell over it-lol) and there are leftovers in the fridge for today muffins, black bean soup and cabbage roll casserole-of course they are perfectly capable of looking after themselves but I have been in a cooking mood this last couple of days.
Thank you, it's used but super low mileage and well within our set budget so we are excited. Feels like we are getting back on track, it takes a while sometimes.Quote:
