Well...managed to find out that my leg hurts so much because I messed it up and have bursitis now which will take longer than I like to get better.Oh well at least its not as bad as it could've been!
Earlier today snow was coming down with a really strong cold wind.Fortunately it did not last nor accumulate(apologies to others not so fortunate).
Timing of weather and my injured hind paw work out as not a fan of being cold! That said still need to continue to move or will have pain elsewhere.
Best deal this week was the under $2.00 10lb potatoes [email protected]. pleased with that as still notice prices on just about everything else moving up again.

I love how you always try to find the positive even in a bad situation @Skippy . Here’s hoping your pain subsides quickly

Good Morning Everyone,
Up super earlier this morning. I woke up around 3:30 and just as I was trying to fall back asleep they started plowing and it was all over so I got up.

Yesterday was a day, in the morning everything was going well, I was knocking things out, getting things off my to-do list, to be honest I was shocking myself with how much I was getting done. I was getting ready to take a break and do some home stuff and then the flood gates opened and I am not joking between 10 am and 5 pm I got over 200 all things I need to deal with.

I was sent one spreadsheet that I did not start working on until after we closed as it needed my full attention, no distractions. I worked till 9 last night and got about 75% through it but had to stop because I couldn't handle the numbers. Now I am working finish this up and move on to the next thing.

To be honest, so much came through yesterday I am not even sure what I still need to deal with so I am going to write a to-do list and go from there.

Last night's dinner was homemade pizza with caesar salad, yum.

Before I got up I did scroll the up coming flyers, does look like there are a few good deals to be had. I see a few things we use that do not go on sale often are on sale so thinking it might be an expensive week as I will stock up.

Happy Wednesday Everyone.

Good Morning! I started my day by bundling up and shoveling the light snowfall from over night.
Walking back and forth down the driveway and fresh air is a great way to start the day!

Now my stressful work day ahead of me ugh... knowing I get to pack up today and leave early in the morning to meet my bestie at hotel for 2 nights is going to get me through the day....and the 75 min massage I have booked tomorrow afternoon! I need it after slugging furniture from my office last night.
The good news is I am pretty much moved out and just have about 10 banker boxes to deal with!

Have a great day!

Good Evening Everyone,
Ugh, what a day, I went into the office and the manager wasn't in but I was in their office, a staff member came in and asked where they were, I said not in, and they said "That is fine then you can deal with this," so I did. We are still working through a few final inventory issues but I am hopeful if we all stick to the plan we will be good going into inventory.

On the way home I went to the post office to grab our packages, Mom needed a new upper-half undergarment hers broke and they were 40% off for Black Friday so I ordered a replacement. There was also another one she found she liked and it was only $24 which for size is unheard of so I ordered. On both orders I needed to add a bit to get free shipping so I added some lower half undergarments for myself, again 40% off and since they aren't seen I found some on clearance for $3.

Mom needed to renew her Microsoft subscription now that you do not just buy programs outright, I found it on sale at Costco during Cyber Monday so I ordered that for her. I did find an option to buy it outright but there is a program she uses she would lose access to.

Costco has their Daily Deals on again and I must say they always pull me in. They have my mattress cover on sale again this year but no need to replace it. I do see some sheets I am tempted to buy.

I fell asleep on the couch for about half an hour so dinner is a little late tonight so keeping it simple with Loaded Baked Potato Soup.

I wrote my grocery list and will finalize in the morning. I always add things we normally buy but will check them and remove what we don't need.
