    Good morning;
    Irene-congrats on finding a dollar.
    Roger-congrats on finding a quarter. You were both luckier than I. I only found a penny.
    Vix-Happy birthday to your son.
    We went to the gym this morning. We didn't go at all last week due to our schedules.
    Today I plan on trying on clothes. I brought 4 boxes down from the attic that I have been saving. I think it is time to go through them and donate the items that I don't want.
    It was so nice yesterday that I opened all the windows and aired out the house.
    Have a great day. :)
    Hi Joanne
    I think You find more money that I do :smiley:
    The quarter was just sitting there when I looked over to the left as I was walking, I usually find what money I find in Parking lots or on the sidewalks in from of businesses.

    Saturday was a great day here too. We donated a lot of clothes in the past trying to make the closets usable.

    Congratulations on Donating
    Roger

    good morning, well today we went for a nice walk and then went out for breakfast . Annie seems to be leaving her paw alone so far we didn't have to put her cone on time will tell if we have to put the cone on. it is raining here now so it might be a day to spend inside take care everyone.
    Hi Irene
    I was out before the rain too, Sunday early on was nice walking weather.
    Today not so :(

    Hopefully that means that Annie's paw is getting better.

    Our rain was done by 2PM, Yours ?

    Have a Nice Day

    Good morning;
    I just finished going though all the boxes of clothes. I have 1 box to donate and 2 boxes went back into the attic. One with clothes that are too big and one that has clothes I hope to fit into soon.
    We had rain in the afternoon yesterday. It was a light rain. It is chilly here today, 34 degrees compared to yesterday's temp of 60.
    Today I am running a few errands and getting a pedicure.
    Have a great week. :)

    Hi
    I'm back home from walking and not one cent was found. The Temperature out the door was 33 degrees. Yesterdays breeze is gone and the walking was more comfortable than Monday's walk.

    My brother got me yesterday, when he told me he had a winning lottery ticket for $500 I believed him, Then April Fools.

    Today I am moderately busy, Bank, Grocery store, Dollar Store and send a problem report to Amazon. I ordered a 6 pack of A23 batteries. The padded envelope inside of the Amazon padded Envelope indicates 6 batteries and contained two 2 packs of the batteries for a shortage of 1/3 of the total. The A23 is a small 12 volt battery that fits the remote to control 3 remote power on and off switches.

    Just wrong In My Opinion, Or just another ploy to get control of more money.

    Hello Irene
    The rain was enough to get things wet without causing any flooding so it could have been worse.

    I was wondering if the fire or the smoke from it was bothering you.

    Good Luck with Annie's Paw

    Hello Joanne
    I can understand holding onto those, Insurance just in case and Good Luck fitting the smaller ones. I did get rid of a lot of the biggest clothes and held onto some that were one size to large for one reason. They could be used if something caused a problem with the laundry.

    Yesterdays rain amounts were around 2/10ths of an inch.

    Cold here IMO for April.

    Have a good day
    Roger

    Hello Vix
    Is there ever a day You do not keep busy ? Frittata is something that has never really attracted me to eat, I can see where it would (Should ?) be healthy OTOH.

    Wow, Oreo and Choclate Chips in the cheesecake, hmm... I should talk I like Cookies and Cream Ice Cream :wink:

    Yesterday I noticed that we have Miniature Daffodils, What I remember as a Anemone, and Hyacinths blooming.

    Have a Good Day

    Hi all.
    Busy day with stained glass, clay, and family time.
    Roger, a frittata is a lot like an omelette, just thicker and with the ingredients mixed in. Good for groups because you can put it in a baking dish, and it's ready for everyone at the same time.
    Irene are you Christmas shopping already?
    Jo, always good to give away things you're not using. I kept some smaller things that I like. Hope to fit back in sometime.
    Have a good night, everyone. :)

    Hi
    I'm back home from walking and not one cent was found. The Temperature out the door was 42 degrees. The possibility of rain overnight did not happen here and the forecast breeze is starting up with higher wind gusts in the forecast.

    Monday I got a notice from The Town Property tax office that the NJ Property tax rebate was being credited against the upcoming quarterly property tax, $167 for my half of the house and my brother had a check for the same amount recently, Every little bit helps

    Hello Irene
    Hang in, Warmer weather is coming, sooner or later :wink:

    My Brother likes the Christmas Tree Store and for different things Bed Bath and Beyond, and will never go to CostCo even though he has no problem with using the paper goods I buy there. Another thing he will never do is go through a Drive Thru be it fast food, Bank or whatever.

    Have a Good Day

    Hello Vix
    Busy, busy, busy seems to be Your motto :wink:

    Thank You for the explanation, I had a feeling it might be something like that and making it in a baking dish for that reason makes a lot of sense, I would not have thought of doing that. being that I use the Microwave a lot I have made Scrambled eggs in it, with a little butter and salt they come out OK, One thing I learned by looking on the Internet is never try to make hard Boiled eggs in the shell in a Microwave, Luckily I learned that be researching to see how long to MW them before I tried it :smiley:

    Christmas shopping, I know some people that start right after Christmas ends, Myself I tend to wait until November.

    I suspect we all have clothes we hope, expect to fit back into.

    Have a Nice Day

    Good morning.
    May go to the stained glass store today, I need to pick up some of the casing that goes around the work. Of course, I forgot what it's called...haha...so may be tricky.
    Ah, it looks a little warmer here today, 48 and sunny, with a high expected of 64. Come on, Spring! Daffodils, anemone, and hyacinths are starting to bloom.
    Happy Wednesday, everyone. :)

    Hi Vix
    I am sure that they can give You what You need, Could it be Cane or maybe it's called Came ?

    I also see a few Grape Hyacinths, What happened to most of them I do not know, Last year they were all over including big clusters in the lawns.

    FWIW The Free Hams at the local Shoprite were once again a no show Sunday and the butcher told my brother they should be in this upcoming weekend, Ha, Same thing he said the week before. It seems to be a store problem, Tuesday I went to a different ShopRite and picked one up from a small selection, They had Shank, Butt and Spiral at that ShopRite.

    Have a Good Day

    Hi Irene
    A hand Crocheted Afghan is a heck of a gift IMO.

    It is my guess that the name may have come from being a specialty shop that expanded their line of goods beyond Christmas Items ?

    Whee, 10 Gift cards is a good stock, once I add another to the upcoming order I will have one left so I need to order 5 more while the sale is on.

    Could You explain how You are getting 50% off, If I could do that I would also change to A La Carte as the Two Snack sections that the men's plan has is too many snacks.

    Have a Nice Day
