Good morning! It's a beautiful morning! The forecast says partly cloudy, but so far it's bright and clear. It will only go to upper 40s, and breezy. That might be a good thing. I have a "warm" chore for today ... taking down the last of the Christmas stuff in the kitchen - just in time to start putting spring decorations out! LOL! I know, it'll be winter for a few more weeks; but when it's March, I'm ready for winterstuff to be packed away. At least inside! LOL!
Last night we went to eat (BoJangles), and then to WalMart. Jimmy picked up some prescriptions, and my niece and I roamed around. I only got a few things I knew I could get cheaper than an upcoming grocery run. And tweezers! Last weekend I searched the house and couldn't find any tweezers ... so last night I bought 3!! Bet I'll find one next time I need it! LOL!
Today, as I said, is pack up the kitchen day. We'll also go to the grocery store, take trash to the dump, and (probably) bake something. Though the gas tank still isn't filled, it's got more than it's had since Christmas. Yay! :)
Today is "Open That Bottle Night" ... "Independence Day (Dominican Republic)".
Quotes of the Day:
