Home, finally, from a long weekend at work. I made one stop on the way home from work last night, for a new pair of gloves as I had left my still-decent-looking really warm pair in daughter's van on Friday. I'd purchased them originally at Wal-Mart, so that was where I went. Found all their women's and children's heavy gloves on sale for $5 pair; I can wear both, so ended up picking up 8 assorted pair; I will probably go back and pick up a few more pair later this week to put back for the grandkids and myself.
Popped in to Walgreen's on the way home this evening for 6# bags of epsom salts at $6.49/buy one get one half off, plus Russell Stover hearts @ 2/$1 for work Valentines. I had $10 worth of points so used those toward the purchase. None of my items rang up correctly so it was a major hassle to check out; this has happened the last two times I went to Walgreen's; it's going to have to an extremely fabulous deal to get me in the door again.
Then it was off to CVS where I picked up 4 cartons of Boost at $9.99 each, buy one get one half off = $30. Used a $10 Extra Care Buck, my last two $7 off 2 Boost coupons, and a $4 off $20 Boost purchase scanner coupon = $28, so $2 plus tax, and got back another $10 Extra Care Buck.
Plans for this week include hitting the pool at least twice with the neighbor lady, keeping the bird feeders filled as we'll be down into single digit wind chills, hanging out with Hubby on Monday, working in the pantry and going to the basketball game on Tuesday, avoiding my phone like it has the plague lest I weaken and agree to work extra hours on Wednesday, actually going in to work Thursday and Friday, then hiding out at home over next weekend
Sometime soon, I need to sit down with my Moon Sign book and figure out when to start my seeds, and when I can take cuttings of my houseplants for best growth; I also need to pull out my large, flip chart size sheets of graph paper to work out a garden plan for this year - most of one of the garden areas is going to be turned over to strawberries, and I plan to pull out a row of raised beds and use them to double the depth of the raised beds in row in front of them, so I'm going to have to do some plotting and planning to get everything I want in the space that I have...
Dang - I'm yawning so big I can barely keep my eyes on the screen; guess I'd better see if I can shut my brain down and get some rest. Y'all take care out there; and stay safe!
