Thrifty and Frugal Thursdays

 Thrifty and Frugal 

A few thrifty and frugal practices have been taking place this week. 

1.  Put $95.00 in the savings envelop, and another $5.65 in the savings jars.

2.  We are doing our own painting of the trim and doors in the house. Paint was bought a couple of weeks ago and man that is expensive.

3.  Clothes hung on lines downstairs.

4.  Air conditioner off for two days.

5.  Watered the plants with rain water.

6.  Used up the tomatoes I had frozen last year making tomato sauce this year.

7.  Using any plastic numerous times this week.

8.  Decluttering to make room in the house.

9.  Using up leftovers in other meals.

10. Walked to get the mail, plus did some weeding for exercise. 

11. Found some ideas to use up scraps of fabric to make gifts.

12. Scanned groceries in for points towards gift cards to use as part of Kurt's and Kris's Christmas gift baskets.

13. Made oregano, and sage salve. 

14. Started some oregano salve.

15. Dried herbs for winter use.

Life is getting busier because of some of the garden looks like it will be producing very soon and things need to be put up for our winter use.


Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.
