Goin’ Shopping

My hubby just called, and I’m going to be cooking a ton tomorrow. We are sending meals home to his co-worker. I’m making a Coconut Cream Pie, Chili, Chicken and Noodles, and Mashed Potatoes. We are also sending a little gift. I was trying to get out of Wal-Mart for around $35.00, but after the new list of items to make and buy it looks like I’ll be lucky if I get out for under $100.00 🙁

I forgot I’m also heading to Walgreens for diapers, pull-ups, and Paper Towels (to make baby wipes) so that is a $50.00 trip. Wish me luck, I’m off to the stores 😉

One Day To Go!!!!!

I am so excited! Tomorrow James and I are off to the Busch Race, and then on Sunday its the Nextel Cup Race! This is our second Nextel Cup Race, and Busch Race too. I can’t wait to go. Last year we found tickets for the Busch Race in KS, and we happily spent our 5th Anniversary (a little early) at the Nextel Cup Race in Talladega AL.

I still have a lot to get done around here, so I had better get to it. Here is the plan for today:

  • Put away 3 loads of laundry
  • Pack 3 coolers
  • Get gas for my car
  • Vacuum the living room
  • Wash and put away clean dishes
  • Empty all of the downstairs and upstairs wastebaskets
  • Take out the trash
  • Go to the ATM, gotta have some cash for NASCAR gear
  • Try to get in a little rest (I only clocked in 3 hours last night)
  • Charge the cell phones and the digital camera

I’m going to be pretty busy today, and James might be taking off work a little early so he can help out too. I hope that everybody has a great weekend!

New Day New Loss Leaders

It is amazing what a difference a day makes. Yesterday I was sick as a dog, and today I’m a brand new migraine free super motivated girl. I’ve already got my bottle pumped for the day, and a load of laundry in the wash.

Today is also Loss Leader Day if you live in SE KS. I think I’m going to have to make the time to make the trip to Dillon’s, Walgreens, and Big Lots too. Here is what I’m shopping for: Continue reading »

Monday Errands

Well the shopping will have to be done a little later. Today Thade noticed that a brand new episode of Yo Gabba Gabba! would be on, so we gotta stay home and catch that. He loves this show. Today there was a great ska song about cleaning up. It was called “Pick It Up”. It was so cute, and hey who doesn’t love a song about cleaning? The show today keeps getting better Tony Hawk is teaching everybody how to skateboard, love it. Now we may never get the errands run.

We have to go to the store, and my list is HUGE. I’m buying a few meals ahead for next week( James is off on Monday), and getting all of our supplies for the NASCAR races this weekend ( sun block, ear plugs). It is going to be a pricey outing 🙁 I also have to run to the post office. We’ll see what I can get done today, I’ve still got a yucky headache. I had better go and make lunch, so that way I’m not too tempted to buy too many snacks.

Seven Days

This morning my hubby informed me that is now just seven days till we go on vacation! I can’t wait. I’m still getting the house together for guests, and freezer stocked with food. I feel like I have been cooking something for somebody non-stop. There is still so much to be done, I should have started earlier.

I deliver my five dozen cookies this morning. Thade was super happy to see that many cookies in the house, I had a few left over for him and hubby too 😉 I think this weekend is going to be busy, lots to clean, and lots to cook. Better get to it! Have a great weekend!
