I’m having one of those weekends.  A little bit of good, a little bit of bad and just enough love to make it ok.
It started when my screen died on my phone and I had to get a new one.  Many managers only text with open shifts so if you don’t get texts your fucked out of the overtime.  So I got that.
Then I got to go up to my mom and dad’s for dinner, a card game and some nail work.  Which is always the best part of my weekend.  Having someone to laugh with and to see the face of someone different then just my husband every weekend is great.  Momma made me tuna noodle and everybody else had salmon loaf.  Momma and I lost at cards, but at least we did it with style and flying a limited amounts of “the bird” around the table.  Then my folks let us have some frozen goodies because money has been REAL tight.  I hoped by 36 I wouldn’t have to say Mom and Dad could you help me out, but I know they would rather me speak up then get sick.  Hypoglycemics need protein like crazy.  So thanks Mom and Dad.
Then this morning I found out that the new number I got with my new phone is already being used by someone else and she has been getting my phone calls and texts.  So I had to go back to the store and get a new number.  Which you bet your ass I tried at the store.
Then to the pet store, then to Rite-aid with ad and coupons in hand.  Then a cool thing happened there.  The manager of the stores clips out coupons on products that they carry in the store and tapes the coupon to the product so people can use them.  So I got one shampoo and two conditioners for $2.80.  That is so cool.  So when I left I had spent about $26.00 and saved $8.50 in coupons and buy one get one free offers.
So with about $60 left we went Aldis to get much needed items like vegetables, bread, milk and you know the must haves for two weeks.  I have in my pocket .25 and I’m okay with that.
But now I am ready for bed.  Because shopping with my husband drains me.  We shop different, we bag groceries different, we drive different and we unload groceries different so we get on each others nerves.  I have to be at work at 11PM so I’m going to nap.  Take Care!
Hope your weekend was great!
