A cooler day


Thank goodness the rain has returned to our neck of the woods. Today it almost seems Fall-like outside, I’m thrilled to finally have some cooler weather.

Thade must be too, because the rainy weather is making him take an extra long nap. Not Dylan though, he is wide awake and screaming at Mommy. Back to babyland.

Are you looking forward to Fall, and the cooler temps too?

The Cat Days of Summer

It is another hot one today. We had a thunderstorm roll through this morning, so it is extremely humid. The temperature is going to hit 100 today with a heat index of 110. I’m so ready for fall and cooler temps.

I’ve been feeling a bit stir crazy, so I took the boys out for errands early today. We ran to the post office and to Dollar General for kitty supplies. I think we are going to be stuck indoors for quite a while. I hope that everybody is staying cool this Summer.

Walgreens Soon?

According to the local rumor mill, Walgreens will be opening next week. I really hope those rumors are correct. I can’t wait for the store to open, it is going to save me tons in gas money and time on the road too. I’m so happy that we are going to have another place to shop and save those precious grocery dollars. Now if we can just get an Aldi to move in to town.

Local $1 Store

Yesterday Thade wanted to shop at our local $1 Store. He had earned some chore money, and it was burning a hole in his pocket. I knew we were headed for whatever toy car he could find, so I tried to browse the aisles as quickly as I could.

I found lots of great treasures too. Cute coffee cups, kitchen utensils, canvas totes, and even organizational bins. I’ll have to take a little extra money the next time we visit, and get a few items for me too.

What great treasures have you found at your local $1.00 Shop?
