Tuesday Tidbits and Stuff


 Another beautiful day here in the southeast corner of Saskatchewan. Many roads are almost bare of ice and snow. This makes walking and driving so much easier. Though on the road in front of our house there is still quite a bit of ice left. 

The engine light stayed off with all my driving today which is awesome. I think that whatever was wrong just might me fixed, all by just re-attaching a line that was forgotten about. Still I will be careful of where we are driving to for awhile. 

Shopping was an eyeopener today. Many of the stores are purchasing more products from Canada. However many more customers are doing the same. This means some areas that usually had lots of Canadian goods, were kind of empty. I suppose that is a good thing overall, but they will need to bring in much more. There were no carrots from Alberta so I ended up purchasing some from the U.S., but we did have lettuce from Alberta at quite a price. 

While my list was short, because of the price increases, well it added up to a bit more than I had thought. Especially canned goods and produce wise. Still I need to do my part. 

The co-pay for a couple of our prescriptions went up as well. I am so glad that we have the extra insurance to help cut down the costs as much as possible. 

I did notice that one item had actually dropped. Fuel has gone down a bit, but that always seems to go up and down on a whim. I didn't need to get any today and so I am hoping it stays low for when I actually need to refill. 

Off to visit all of you, and then get supper on the table. 


Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.

  1. I suspect prices are up worldwide what with the mess my government is making sadly. Glad your vehicle is fixed.

  3. Here in California we have a summer blend of gasoline to prevent evaporation of the gas in the engine. It’s more expensive. We’re used to it - still people complain. 🤷‍♀️
    I’m so pleased your vehicle wasn’t costly like you were first concerned about. I hope it continues to perform for you without any more concern.
