Saturday

Well, I was thinking that I don't have quite as well an organized plan ahead as my sister, but as I am organizing my thoughts to post this, I guess maybe I do. :) I also have a spontaneous significant other and my well thought out plans for the day can be subject to change at a moments notice.

First things first though. I wanted to make a post on here and then organize the stuff I am watching or selling on ebay. I have already purchased some Christmas presents/stocking stuffers, so am proud of that. I usually don't start shopping until after Thanksgiving. I do this because I think that I would buy way too much if I started earlier. I would forget what I have already gotten or see something else that I think would be good too.

Then, I will do a few things around the house that I have neglected this week. Probably throw in a load of laundry, wash my bedding, scrub the bathroom, and hopefully also vacuum.

Our plans for the day are to drop off the cookie dough that people ordered from Heather. We got most of it delivered last night, but 3, we didn't catch at home. We are hoping to take care of that today. Then on to do some Christmas shopping/browsing. And, of course, get some groceries before the kids come back next week. I've been keeping things pretty well stocked lately, so we don't really need alot of things, just staples mostly. We have found that we go through about 6-8 gallons of milk on the weeks that they are here. Luckily, we have a grocery store in town and we frequent that at least once a week for those kinds of things-bread, milk, sometimes meat too. Their meat dept. isn't too bad. But, I wouldn't want to buy my bulk of groceries there (much too expensive).

We will need to get back by 6:00 pm too. We got a call last night from friends inviting us out for supper. It is funny how life can come around full circle sometimes. We have started socializing with my best bud from high school and her husband more lately. We kind of drifted apart when I was married, despite the fact that she is married to my ex-husband's first cousin. Well, now that he and I are no longer together, we have started spending time together again. She and her husband ride with us and we have gone out to eat with them a couple times now. Besides that, anytime she and I have seen each other we have always been able to talk on and on.

Well, on to ebay. I keep getting interrupted in this post by emails from a buyer that is asking questions about one of my listings. I hope she buys. It is good to find a home for all this inventory that I have had. I'm glad someone can use it.
