It was such a fun, fun trip. So many great sites and adventures. Way too many doughnut shops. I swear there was one every two blocks. I love me a doughnut or six. One day I ate 4 doughnuts. Slugs and I went to a place at the end of the day and they offered us buy a dozen get a dozen free. Who can turn that down? So.... well... I just could not let all those doughnuts go to waste. Sigh, so delicious.
We are already planning our next trip. We want to take an Alaskan cruise. I have never really wanted to cruise but I do want to do the Alaska one. So we will be together again sometime in the future.
Right now I have to pay attention to my pennies, as I have to come up with $1000.00 to add to our house payment and also get enough together to pay off any charges we made on this trip. As 9 days of my month is gone my income has been greatly diminished. I will continue to buy as few groceries as possible and that will be easy,with chickens, food storage, etc.
Sluggy was also able to teach me how to really use my ibotta app correctly and how to take advantage of Riteaid savings.She is the bomb, I tell you. She needs to teach classes in this.
So now that I am home I have to face reality and get to work and all without a doughnut. So sad.
Things I must face today.
1. laundry
2. the shop (over $200.00 worth of work came in yesterday afternoon)
3. I left the house kind of messy, so I need to clean.
4. check the garden and do a final produce pick then deal with the produce
5. One of our renters is gone and I need to deep clean that room and bath and get it ready for the next adventure.
6. Figure out what is for dinner.
7. pay all of Octobers bills
So my work is cut out for me. There are many more things I need to do this month, and as I only have 21 more days I will need make my time count. All this vacationing has made me kind of lazy.
Well I am off to set some goals for the rest of the month. What are you guys doing?
Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.
Kim
