it is a beautiful merry go round you are on with the grandkids!!

I've never eaten any of the 5 guys stuff, heard of them but we've never searched one out. I had a rather annoying experience with one of the Metro meal Deals on Thursday. Long story short, I'm being reimbursed the $26.99. ( whole BBQ chx, 1 hot and 1 cold side and ribs ) The Deli lady shoved burnt ribs into the tray. Never saw till I reached home and too late to go back, these were for the guys work meals. Called store, manager really sorry, said bring in bill, he'll refund me. SNEAKY what she did, why treat regular customers that way? I buy lots of stuff at that Deli location, they know my face.

SuperGramma! I know it's tiring you out BUT I admire that you always step up to watch and entertain all of your grandkids. (((HUGE hugs for you))). They will understand when they are older how much you and Grampa were there for them.

ty for confirming that! I never buy those frozen McCain or other types. Our DD used to be the one who loved those but we prefer homemade.

listen, we're wiser now and KNOW that kids are only kids for so long. I love that you are knee deep in all of your precious g-kids lives. My MIL was the same way, she was a large mother hen sort of a woman but with a heart of gold and sense of humour to die for! Have a great day!!

ty ( about my sil ) DH is very close to her, he's first born, she was the next one. Always her protector.

I am sort of stocked up on my own deodorant for now, just don't use as much as I used to when I worked everyday. DH and DS have their own preference, Old Spice. That makes it easy for me, they have sales! I head out bright and early tomorrow hoping to snag my first 40 times the miles using my Air Miles Max Pass thing at Metro ( they open at 7 a.m. ) . If I have time I'll hit both Shell and Dollarma later in the afternoon. Who would ever have thought Dollarama would be an AM Sponsor?

great deals you got today AND that SCOP on TP!! lol

I’m impressed with you and DH’s driveway cleaning skills! You’re more ambitious than I! Hope your aches and pain are few and far between.

your trip to Deerhurst sounded great! Any time spent frolicking with your grandkids is time well spent, they will have those memories now to cherish!

Just wanted to say I hope you feel better soon. Hopefully it won’t take long to adjust and you’ll be back to your old self soon ( I don’t mean that you’re old ). Thanks for the support on my post

nice to have someone understand the cons of living right across from schools. We have two! A Catholic and a regular one. Traffic is a nightmare during those early morning and early afternoon hours. Our neighbour right across from us got himself some traffic cones as parents would use his driveway to turn around in! Don't mess with this guy on the corner house, he's retired and welcomes confrontation...lol

oh do I ever know that feeling at NF when my grocery bill sometimes goes past $150.00 . I Those are the shops that I do a double take in disbelief!

just like crypto currency, get in and get out before it all goes to sh+t ! ha ha

We've always bought so many clam-shells of berries every week, plus those bulk containers of pitted fruits that DS loves like peaches, nectarines and plums. When I was dieting the sales were always there! Not anymore. Now we simply pass on buying if we feel the prices are too high. This is happening more and more with other products as well. We are running out of alternative brands and options...lol

that deal you scored on the strawberries at SDM was great! I refused to pay what they were asking for strawberries at Freshco and NF on Saturday , we went with cheap raspberries instead for this week! lol

I was unaware you have a great Green Thumb! I have more in common with Frualbigmama in that I tend to unintentionally kill plants that start out healthy. ha ha

isn't it a blessing when smaller plumbing repairs can be handled by our Mr Fix It's ? My guy is the same, hates to dole out $$ if he can manage the repair himself.

yes, that's the trick. You can make just enough snacks for 2 without firing up the oven.

aw ty about the window Easter decor. I just love the promise of Spring that comes with Easter. Dollar store was awesome for prices, I put back quite a number of items before I settled on the ceramic bunnies. The main thing was not to have anything in that window that will melt as the sun beats down all day. DH liked the decor and said he thinks I am still a kid at heart!

lol!! I totally missed that it was vegan, I'd pass on that too.

we've had THE worst luck with stones flying up on the hwy and chipping various windshields of ours over a few vans now. One of our old vans there was a crack all the way across the whole windshield but DH was so pissed off about having to pay for repair so we never did!! Just let it die when the van died. This last van ( 2015 ) was still very new when it got dinged TWICE in the same week!

oh lord ! Your DS windshield! Stupid snow!

lol!!! Did ya like my response on " why no cell phone? " . I should've given my Mom's response when asked if her hubby and her wanted one at 93 and 90 years old respectively . Basically it was " who the heck would we call? Most of our friends and all of our siblings are gone and we're just not that important! " lol!!!

gosh I always forget about Rexall and their Be Well reward points. I'm registered but hardly need much from Rexall, you got great points! Plus Mmmm, that Swiss Chalet dinner! (((hugs ))) to your DS for that. lol

Praying that you'll be feeling better soon!

it was such a blast, good hearty laughs with my crazy a*s sister and her long white bearded hubby. So entertaining with them we call it dinner and a show!

the Barbie Doll days are so long gone for us. Our DD had a small window of interest in all things Barbie and then suddenly she went tomboy for a few years. In our garage I'm sure we still
have most of her dolls and accessories.

awww. ty very much! I've been near the front door all day awaiting a supposed delivery that my sister said was arriving for my birthday. DH said " maybe it'll be a male stripper birthday gram! " ha ha

Mine came with marriage. I’ve had ups and downs with sleep since getting married years ago. So I blame my husband
