We have had drizzles the last few nights, not enough to amount to much, about .03 of an inch. We need a lot more than that. I am hoping it doesn’t come this winter in the form of ice and snow. I hate cleaning the car off.
My daughter was kind enough to take me to a few garage sales this morning. I have missed most of the garage sales this summer. After we went to the garage sales we went to Bergner’s where I got a pair of slacks, a pair of shorts, a pair of sandals and 2 packages of fluorescent footies all for $29.41 for a savings of almost $83. When I took some books to Goodwill this week I was given a whole handful of coupons to be used at Bergner’s. The coupons worked on everything. So much fun. I think I will go back again before the promotion ends on October 5th as I have a lot of coupons left.
I have cleaned the bathroom and run the sweeper this week. Tomorrow I have some laundry to do and mopping the kitchen floor and dusting. I should have done these things today but I had more fun out at garage sales and shopping.
Tomorrow begins my 7th week of recovery. I am keeping track of the weeks that I have been allowed to live and thanking God for the privilege. I have 3 doctor appointments this next week, the 23rd, 24th, and the 27th. My birthday along with my twin falls in the middle of the week on the 25th. I can’t believe how old I am getting. Don’t ask, because I will never tell.
Have a great weekend. Stay safe and be happy!
Beth
