It's Wednesday, what's new review

Sorry you are not feeling well but congrats on getting off the BP meds....that's great!

Hope you are feeling better soon!

Susan, feel better soon (((Hugs)))

Happy Hump Day OFF family,
All is well as expected on my home front. Looking forward to the weekend.

Didn't get my workout at the gym. One of my volunteers called in sick and the gym was short 2 people all ready so I volunteered to check little kids in for their swim classes and 2 adult classes also from 4:45-7pm. I was going to work out after but was too tired and didn't feel I wanted to be energized before I went to bed...I know sounds like excuses!...It was.

Today I will either do water aerobics or spin class. I will check with my work out buddy which she prefers. I will try to talk her into water and do spin class tomorrow.

You all have a great day!

Slept like a log last night.  Was up at 6:30 this morning to get on line to purchase a half off eats coupon.  Spend $25 get a coupon worth $50.  Every Wednesday up here they highlight a restaurant and you can purchase the coupons at 6:50 a.m.  Well, they were highlighting the restaurant, Peegeo's, where our Harley Chapter has their monthly meetings.  We usually go there for dinner before the meeting, so this will save us money.  Always up for saving money!  At the bar/restaurant in our little town they have everything on the menu 1/2 off on Tuesdays, so we usually go every Tuesday.  I usually get the 6 oz sirloin, baked potato and dinner salad and bring half of it home for the next day.  Yesterday I had 1/2 slab of ribs (4 bones)  I ate my salad and 1 rib and a couple of bites of potato.  Today's lunch will consist of ribs and tators.  All for a cost of only $5.00.  We use coupons and go to 'special' days when ever we can.  The almighty dollar seems to rule these days.

The best of intentions don't always turn out the way we want them to.

Hey, don't try to take my crown.....I'm the coupon queen!!  It's a game I play....

Tonight I got Matthew to run to the local market as it is last day for the weekly sales.... I wrote the list, gave him the coupons....he came back with $78 worth of groceries and we paid $27!  Not bad!

On Friday we will go out to one of the Italian buffet....pay for one lunch get the other free....we will both eat for $5 or $6.  I LOVE IT!!!!!

Do you have any favorite on-line coupon spots?  If you sign up with the chain restaurants they will email coupons every month.  :-)

I've never done quite as well as you at the grocery store, but I love coupons.  The stores where I live now don't double coupons, but when I was downstate they'd double up to and including $1.00.  I had lots of fun there.  I do register with the chains, Outback, Appleby's and some smaller ones up here.  The place right here in town has an awesome Sunday brun*****luding prime rib, ham, choc covered strawberries, Bloody Mary Bar, and a ton of breakfast foods for $15.00.  When they offer the two for one coupons we usually go.  Where can you get great prime rib for 7.50, and all you can eat.  I can't eat much, but it's worth the $7.50 for that piece of protein!  We go with three other couples too, so it's a social event!
We've got our Euchre party with the Harley group this weekend.  We each bring an appetizer.  I'm going to make deviled eggs.  I know I can eat them and get in protein to beat!
Hope you're getting sun down there.  It's snowing up here, but I really don't mind it.  Looks like the east coast is getting blasted again.  Bet you're glad you're in Fl. eh?

I do miss the double coupons...they don't do it here.  :-(

We got a coupon in the mail for a FREE lunch at Outback if we listen to a tax seminar while eating...I said we should go but since it started 20 mins ago I guess I better start cooking lunch.  LOL

Have a good day!

Good morning, ya'll.

Today I have lab work done to see if my white blood cell and platelet counts are up.  If not - transfusion.  If so - chemo as scheduled next 3 Wednesdays.

DIL off to OR to help her Momma celebrate her 60th birthday.  The grandsons will be staying between home and here I'm sure.  They are 16 and 18.  They live 6 doors down from us and are here at least once a day anyway.  Just so they are responsible for feeding and 'peeing' the dogs.

My Uncle is in ICU.  Had something goin on yesterday and stopped breathing long enough that there seems to be brain damage.  He is basically non-responsive.  This is the brother to my Mom (who passed in June), and my Aunt Ginny (who passed last month).

My son-in-law's half brother died yesterday from a brain aneurysm.  He was 17.  He lost another half brother a few years ago in a car accident, he was also 17 at the time of his death!

Things can happen in the blink of an eye.  Be sure you tell those you love the things you want to say NOW.  And in the past, if you have said things you regret to those you love, get those apologies out of the way NOW. Life is too short.

Everyone have a fantabulous day!

Hi Everyone and to those that offered friendship and compassion through this time for me.  Thank you.

I have been spending a lot of time with my sister.  SHe can't walk because of a bad infection on her foot.  She tries to hobble around.  Tonight is the service for the uncle.  My husband and I are going to attend.

I have no clue why the wife of this man is still having her baby shower on Sunday.  My sister doesn't want to go.  She thinks everyone will be talking behind her back that he son ran him over.  It is such a tragedy, for all of us involved.

I check in at night when I can't sleep.  I have had a hard time writing a what's new in my life when all I can do is cry.

Always tell your loved ones, your kids, your souse, parents or whoever that you love them.  Life can change in a second.

Peace

 post away.....  even through the tears....  we know you hurt and we are here for you.
