Thanks for the nice comments .I am sure i will knock this cold away sooner than later .
We have cara overnight on sat night because my son and his wife are going to toronto to see "rock of ages" his birthday gift from his wife.Cara is 5 and the busiest grandchild next to sebastian.
I need to get groceries soon ,but yesterday i did make a banana loaf,just had a slice with a warm cup of tea.
Good Afternoon,
I am feeling better today, just tired today not exhausted. I feel tired is just my natural state of being these days and will be for the month of March well we prepare for this upgrade.
We got snow last night, hoping it was just snow. I have not made it outside to shovel yet. The morning got away from me, two long conversations with two different managers and my morning was gone.
I did get some hand dishes done before the first call. Not going to lie, did not want to do them but trying to keep on top of them.
I have to run out later this afternoon for an appointment so I will run into No Frills and grab a few things since I did not shop last week.
Still need to finalize February's budget and layout March. I know we are good for February, we came in under budget so not too worried. I would be concerned if we were over budget and I needed to use some of March's funds to cover February.
Looked at the sales at Costco that are good until March 12th, nothing we need so hoping March will just be the basics. Other than Chicken Breasts, I think we are pretty well stocked on the basics. Will just watch the Produce sales and if I see any good deals we want to take advantage of.
Happy Tuesday
where did February go and where did my day go??
Darn @coupon girl , a cold again, well as you said it'll soon leave if it knows what's good for it!
@harbie your surprise gift from Mother Nature of more snow? Don't send her a ty card, it will only encourage her!
I've been up " doin stuff " both on the phone and computer, then once free from those shackles I tackled some more kitchen annoyances.
Is anyone else fastidious about not being able to start making their own meal ( bkfst, lunch or dinner ) unless the sink of dirty and rack of clean
dishes are dealt with?
I go in sometimes thinking Mmmm, time to have my brekkie now....then I see them, the mystery deposits of dishes in there?? ugh.
Oh and the wait time on hold for me today for Service Canada was 45 minutes. PITA!
March better bring me flowers or else! lol
On a fun note I was able to vacuum seal my containers of rice paper " flowers " using the Foodsaver device. I am hoping they will still be nice for Easter BUT I know I am making more because they are kind of fun to do.

If you have a chance to go to Circle-K, make sure to check your coupons in their online coupon portal. They just added two free item coupons (limited numbers). One for Orange Biosteel and a second for Cherry Coke. These are in addition to any you may have won in the game that just finished yesterday.

Value Village-local store now has 8 self-checkouts (card only!) and two cashier lanes (only one was staffed when I visited). Lowes-staff looked for yard bags and someone realized a skid came in recently so I waited as stock came out!
Walmart has resumed stocking Boost Simply+ again for 11.97. Only saw Chocolate lurking with the regular Boost display near a price checker. Funny how it's been 2-3 months without sighting the product (have not been in Walmart often this year).
Thanks @harbie for the March thread start! Only 12 more days until the clocks go forward again for many of us.

I will post a chicken drumstick recipe for the BBQ thread that I spotted in Alive magazine for February. Since some SCers score meat deals on their grocery runs, they might like new ways to use drumsticks!
VV in my areas had self checkouts a few months ago and 1 till for cash and return. Such a pain (long wait) to return an item. I haven't been back since.

Finally all caught up on February just in time to move to March. It was a frugal month, I am pretty sure MasterCard is going to wonder what the heck happened. I put a chunk of money into my RRSP and have very little carry over. We spent next to nothing on meals out and yet I still had a social month. I expect March will be more of the same. I am sure we will be replacing the microwave soon as it’s become temperamental. It’s sucks because this one is not even 6 years old and the last one was still working when we removed it for the renovation and it was 18 yrs old. It looks the fridge may not be far behind and that’s a production I just don’t want to deal with. Now on to March.
Have you been diligent on routine maintenance, such as vacuuming coils and de-frosting?Quote:
