Good Morning, All! Hope this week's thread finds you all safe and happy
My brain is about fried from work, and I need to get up early so I can make a stop on the way in to work this evening, so this is gonna be a short post - sorry 'bout that!
I'm not sure what my prep plans are for this week yet - I remembered to stop and pick up the Sunday papers, but haven't take time to sort out the ads or coupons. I know that I'm going to want to add several varieties of canned tomatoes to the pantry since the crop here wasn't worth the effort to can them - it'd be a couple of quarts at a time, if that! I did notice a sale on the sign board outside the local grocery store - "5# chicken breast for $6"; if the sign is still up in the morning, I will probably stop by to see what they have; maybe spend $20 on more chicken to can. I'm going to snag the weekly ads for the other nearby grocery stores and tuck them in my work bag this evening; maybe make some stops on my way home from work in the morning if there are any worthwhile deals.
The grandsons go back to school this week - I'm going to be sad not to have them underfoot as much, but I will finally be able to get some things done inside the house - the woodwork needs lemon oil, as do the cabinets and wainscot; air return grates need cleaned, the light panels in the dropped ceiling in the basement also need cleaned, boxes of recently canned food need carried down to the pantry and rotated in to the pantries while previously canned items need carried up to restock the upstairs pantries....
I think I just wore myself out thinking about the things that need done Reckon I'd better head to bed and get ready for another night at work - and maybe a little post work shopping!
You folks take care and stay safe out there - I'd sure miss you if you weren't here on the forum!
