Payday week and a productive week it was!

Today is Friday! Don't know why it excites me when everyday seems like Saturday around here!  I love retirement.  I love being home with my honey every day!  It has been a good week. We don't do much but clean house, watch tv, play with the cat, walk the dog, ride my exercise bike, and sleep. It is a good life.

Of course, Monday we took the car into the shop. That was a good thing. It isn't ready yet. Won't be ready until next week. They had to order another part. Meanwhile, Karla (daughter) got a new car! Nissan Altima. She is one happy girl! Can't blame her!


Tuesday we went to Costco. I posted that we were going on Facebook and Andrew called and wanted to meet us there! That was fun! Love spending time with grandkids. Of course, Andrew will let me know if I don't need to buy something. haha! We shopped around awhile. I got some flannel sheets, got slippers for Andrew, and got the usual. Overspent as usual too. Then the 3 of us sat and had Costco dogs together.  They were good!

Wednesday we went to Walmart to finish shopping. Spent too much again. I don't care if the workers go on strike at most grocery stores because I have enough food in this house to last a couple months!!!! lol!  Cupboards, frig and freezer are stuffed.

Thursday the propane guy came out and filled our tank. It is for our fireplace. Love it!  I am sitting here with the fire going this morning too.  So nice. The cat doesn't know what to think but he'll learn to love it.
Speaking of pets, papa took them to the Big Valley Pet Resort in the morning. Kitkat got his nails cut and Toby stayed for a hydrobath, nails cut, ears cleaned, etc.... He is so soft and wonderful! Smells good too.

I picked up Toby and took him home and then ran and got Papa a $5.00 footlong from Subway. Stopped at McDonalds and got Lauren lunch. And of course all the little Seagulls had french fries too because I always buy extra fries! "Mine, mine, mine, etc...." We had so much fun! The girls love me...especially the one covering her mouth. She said I am so awesome I should star in a magazine. I got lots of thank you's and 4 hugs! All over cold, gross McDonald fries. lol!

Lauren politely drinking her milk.

I've been doing this for 3 or 4 years now. I am getting to know the girls pretty good. This will be my last year. :(  Next year they will be at the Middle School (Junior High). The girls are growing up!

Next, I ran to Albertsons to get final groceries because I didn't get enough or spend enough! lol!  Grabbed a bag of apples that was marked $3.00 off the bag, but found out at the check stand the bag was over $23.00!!! Washington is the apple state and they want me to pay that price for apples? I just want to make a crisp like I always do every fall! Not for that price....I said no thank you. I bought a bag of chicken (8 piece) for an easy dinner and the pieces were so small they look like they came off a game hen!  I don't know if you can tell here, but they were ridiculous! A wing. The leg was more like a wing.

 So I did what any person would do and wrote a letter to Albertsons!  Within 24 hours they said they were sending me a $10.00 gift card! I didn't expect that! I just wanted them to know I will not go back and get their chicken and how bad it was!  Wow. No wonder my mom would write letters to complain when she was mad. It works!  My dinner was still ruined though.

Well, the doc changed my meds back.  I'm not as crabby but still tired. Only been a few days so we'll see how it goes.

Loving this week in TV.  New shows and returns!  Some I was impressed with and others I am not.  We will see what happens.

Thanks to my girl for stealing getting some pictures of our son Ryan at his graduation!  I appreciate it since I messed it up!!!!



Well, that's all I got. This weekend is suppose to be real nasty!  Rainy and windy! We are suppose to go see Lauren play soccer. It will be the first one we've been to this season.  I hope she still plays.

Have a great weekend! Stay dry and warm and GO SEAHAWKS!!!!
