Good morning! It was quiet on my short drive to work. People must have headed out early for the long weekend and skipped work today!
I went to SDM last night and bought 14 more bottles of shampoo (11 for boys 3 for me ) We are stocked up on shampoo/conditioner now for at least 2 years. I am not allowed to buy more unless it is a money maker!
Good thing I brought the gas can to the station when I filled up. I needed to put about $7 in the can or I wouldn't have been able to hit the $40 mark. Nice to have a full tank of gas since I have been just putting in the needed amount all month. Especially before the long weekend...I was worried that they would have had the price jacked last night when I went but they didn't! Received the bonus PC PTs with no inquiry which is nice.
Laundry is still on the go but I am getting there! Will get on it as soon as I get home to get more done and put away. Will take up more new dishes from the box in the basement and wash and put away in cupboard. Then it is one more thing out of the basement. My garbage bag is filing up slowly and I am seeing more space
Have a wonderful day everyone!

I am really trying to focus on not wasting in the kitchen too. I am going to start really planning the meals with what we have on hand and making sure to freeze stuff before it goes bad etc. I noticed I have cooked chicken in the freezer so am planning to thaw it soon and make DS chicken fried rice. Same with bread.. we have a loaf on the go and 3 packages of English muffins in the fridge. I won't buy more till we use this up. I tossed a dozen eggs the other day because it was way past the expiry date. I need to get back in the habit of frying up eggs so the kids can make quick egg mcmuffins. Same with milk. Mostly its is friends over eating cereal so we don't use it much. I need to watch the expiry date and make homemade mac and cheese to use it up. So that is my focus the next while to get back into the frame of mind.

Over a week ago I took my youngest out for lunch. Wanted quality time so lunch it was. We went to a local beach Grill and bar. Our lunch cost almost $50. We split a ceaser salad and each had a chicken sandwich/burger with fries. It was good. And part of our summer fun so wasn't worried about the money but still OMG! Later that day was when I found steak at $2.50 LB and bought $40 worth. We will get so many amazing meals from it for less then lunch for 2. Going out to eat is crazy now! (that's why we enjoy our free meals at the casino since we don't usually dine out otherwise)

And I am going to work really hard to make sure DS has a made from home lunch. I really slacked last year giving him money basically every single day. It was just easier. We have a plan this year!

We are under a heat advisory until Sunday. It’s currently 26, feels like 34 and it’s only noon. We spent some time in the back yard this morning with sunscreen, hats, bug spray, water bottles, smoothie popsicles, and the water table to play in. We’ll spend the rest of the day indoors with AC on. The mosquitoes are still really bad, I ultimately wore a jean jacket and jeans along with bug spray while I picked our yellow beans. I had nearly a gallon bucket full. Changed back into summer clothes as soon as I was out of that garden patch. I obviously watered the garden while we were out there. We also ate the few garden peas that we found.
I’m completing the hands on portion of my First Aid, CPR, AED course Wgen Dh gets home from work. I don’t think that their temporary location has AC. This might be a very hot evening... at least it’ll be done.
edit: My thumbs/fingers are quite sore from picking those beans. I picked them with my bare hands. Apparently I might need to wear my gloves next time. This was my first harvest with variety.Last edited by Angela273; Thu, Aug 1st, 2019 at 02:34 PM.
