Hi Carol!

We got an early start this morning as Greg had to take his car into the shop to have it fixed up so he can sell it; the plan is that The 57 Chevy will be his car to run around in and he’ll use my minivan when he really needs to.   As soon as we got back, I hightailed it up to Target to do my “big” grocery shop -

Came home, barely had time to get the ice cream in the freezer and had to go pick up Greg from dropping the Chevy off to have the a/c put in.  So we are really a one-vehicle family for a few days.  I’ve given Greg strict instructions about the specific times I need my van, like tomorrow when I go on adventures with Li’l Cec and Wednesday when I go bargain hunting.  Hopefully there won’t be any conflicts.

I got a note from Sobe Life Water today saying they were very sorry for sending out expired coupons and that they were going to send out new ones.  Hooray for that.  I was very much looking forward to those freebies.

If you buy $50 worth of gift cards at JC Penney, you can get a $5 giftcard for yourself.  A perfect example of Give and You Shall Receive.

Li’l Cec is calling from his crib – he’s had enough of “resting”………………………….
