I never have any money left to take advantage of the sales (Thank goodness-I hate shopping !) What does annoy me is seeing items I bought on Christmas eve reduced to half price,or less,2-3 days later ! !
Morning all. Been snow shovelling. 15 cm in the night, plus 5 more while I was in the gym on the treadie for 32 minutes this morning at the crack of. My marathon looks promising :-)
JJ - I've never seen the sense in that 'I've saved a fortune' stuff, unless it was on stuff you would have bought anyway. Too many times it's a case of 'oh look, that's cheap, let's buy it'. So you actually spend money you wouldn't have!
IW - I agree. It's amazing what one has to spend to save.
RD - The store is out of business now, but we had a store like that. It had weekly sales. I never could get across the point that the merchandise was overpriced to begin.
No snowf shoveling here. Huge thunderstorms during the night, but seems relatively quiet. Guess I will venture out.
Freezing fog here,so the snow still remains. Footpaths are treacherous. Cats fed,post collected,house checked,shopping done (Got crackers for New Year at half price!)
Hi Jim-Just the usual-alot less than I had to do when we had lots of animals etc. Housework's never ending . . . . . . .Blurgh! Running today ? Have a good one (0:
Good afternoon all, Ive done a run around the block this afternoon, but it was hard work with all the ice on the road,it made me puff quite a bit. I know Im a bit behind the times, but I had a new experience running today,I had a mp3 player with me,running with all my Elvis and Ronettes music in my ears Im sure I went that bit quicker.
Swapped tomorrow's rest day with today as I over indulged on the champers at our neighbours house this lunch time. Oops! A very pleasant little gathering. They'd made some special veggie horses dooveries just for me. Unfortunately, they thought that Mike is veggie too so kept trying to make him eat them when he was looking longingly at the meaty things!
Snow and ice still here and it's been really cold all day. The ponds are both frozen over and the poor ducks are skating all over the place. The forecast is for rain tomorrow though so I expect I'll be able to get into Lunnon on NYD.
It's our anniversary tomorrow so we're going out for a meal and some drinkies. I think I may need to detox in January ;-)))))))
Hi Dave, thanks. My poor liver doesn't know what's hit it over the last couple of weeks. I shall have to buy some Milk Thistle to cleanse it..........but not until next year ;-)

Foggy in my area, but the temp is nice. Water was dripping off some of the trees.
Have a great afternoon!
