Good Afternoon Everyone,
I had to go into work today to help Marketing prepare for Inventory, took a little longer than expected but we got it done. Now only 6485 more inventory issues to clear up by the end of the week LOL.

Since I was close to the Mall I ran over to pick up my legging that were $49.95 in-store but $14 online. I got the Simmery ones I wanted plus I grabbed a pair of Black because when are Black Leggings ever a bad idea, but really I lost a pair they have a hole in them so needed to replace them.

I also ran into Costco because they had Dumplings on sale and we needed Cheese Slices. I ended up grabbing a few other things as I do not want to have to go back to Costco before Christmas, it was insanity today. Inside was not too bad but the parking lot oh my gosh insanity. But as soon as I got home realized there are 2 things I forgot, they are not must haves which is good.

We used to make our own dumplings but by the time I buy all the ingredients now, you cannot beat the price at Costco and then when they put them on sale and they make a great quick dinner.

Happy Tuesday Everyone.

Good Morning! Happy hump day!

Just reviewed all the flyers that start tomorrow wrote out my list.

Yesterday I picked up lots of fresh stuff. Our fruit for the week is apples/oranges/blueberries and raspberries. So breakfast is oatmeal today because I love it with fresh berries! Yum!! Pineapples are on for $1.88 at FB starting tomorrow so will grab a few of them over the next week.

Have a wonderful day!

I am feeling quite famous-lol. CTV Toronto had asked if those who could speak to supporting adult children or grandchildren through school or other circumstances could contact them-so they just interviewed me on Zoom. Not sure if it will be used online or not. DD graduates from her addictions counselling course this week-yay.
