Thrifty and Frugal
I am feeling much better today, but I know that if the weather fluctuates as much tomorrow as it has been, well the back ache will come once again.
We are also supposed to get some heavier snow through tonight and into tomorrow. Good thing Harvey shoveled the back deck off and did a bit of snow blowing as well.
So what frugal things have I been up to this week.
The usual watching how much water we are using, drying clothes on lines downstairs when possible, using up all food by either eating them for lunches, having another supper from them, or freezing things before they spoil.
I did the grocery shopping this week (probably another reason the back was angry) and got what I could on sale and managed to pick up a few items to put in the hall pantry.
Used decorations from other years to decorate my tree. We are going to sell the other one online and see if we can make a bit of cash.
Fixed the hem on one of Harvey's t-shirts.
Making sure lights are off in rooms not in use.
Plans made to use up various craft supplies in the sewing/craft room so as not to have to purchase more before items are under control in that room.
Old towels have been taken downstairs to Harvey's work room so he can get rid of the old threadbare ones he has been using for years.
Baking bread and treats for Christmas.
Making candy instead of purchasing for Christmas treats as well.
I hope you all have had a thrifty and frugal week as well.
Everybody have a wonderful evening.
God bless.
