Did I Tell You

I am tired of winter. We have had very few nice days. It has been colder than cold, snowier than snow and way too cloudy. We are however 20 days or so out from the first day of spring. Not that, that comes true up here in the prairies. 

I tried making myself a sweater. I was sure I had enough yarn. Nope, it has become a glorified vest. It’s okay as it is pretty or will be once it is done. Very nice pattern for bulky wool. Will post a picture when done.

This month so far, I have paid off $1100 on one debt. Feeling good about that and hoping I can keep it up. I have not put gas in my car since the beginning of December and I still have 1/2 tank. I have had to start my car to let it warm up over the past week. Yup even plugged in I have been thinking it may not start. My battery and fluids are all good thankfully. All my January bills are paid and most of my February ones. I am dead on for groceries using my $200 wisely. I should only need fresh items next month. 

I did all my ironing and I got rid of a bunch of shoes that were worn out along with a couple of purses and socks. My entryway closet was over stuffed. I put my coats that are not being worn right now into my bedroom closet. I took everything else out and cleaned then rearranged it. I brought in a set of bins that has three bins. The bottom one I put all my tools in. The middle one is my hats, scarves and extra gloves/mitts. The top one belongs to his royal highness. He sure has a lot of gear for just one dog.  

Today I am making baked beans. The beans soaked well over night. Now I am giving them a big boil. Then into the oven. They are going to be too good. 



Pictures of my frozen tundra. Thank goodness for snow clearing.
