Idea's and Thoughts

If you have not seen under my

tree in recent post then you did not

know that I wrapped my gifts all

in kraft paper, except one.

But I never thought of doing this...

Saw this idea on Pinterest.

What a cute idea.

About month or so ago I 

picked up a tin of popcorn at

Kmart. It was on sale for  

$4.50. I grabbed one and over

a course of time I enjoyed most

of it...feeding the last to the birds.

I have noticed over the years that

the size of the can has been

squished down (for lack of

a better term)

From this

To this.

 But what really got my attention was

the pricing.

I paid $4.50

and thought I would pick

up a tin for my daughters boys but

did not want to drive back over to 

Kmart. So I looked at Kroger.

There price was $5.99, Walgreens however

for the same things was $7.99

but Wally World (Walmart) had theirs

for $5.00..

Wow, pricing for the same thing was

all over the board.

Now moving on,

who likes the blow up 

Christmas decorations?

Just my thoughts, I don't care

for them. 

Esp during the day when everyone

is off to work and the decorations

are turned off, laying lifeless on 

the ground in a blob of plastic 

mess.

But I guess the redneck in me

likes things like this!

haha....

While writing this post I heard some

noise coming from my laundry 

closet. I left the doors open and 

Ms. Lily Bit decided to jump up

on the washer and off to under

the stairs.

She was playing around in the empty

box that my tree goes in.

One last thing....night before

last I got a call and I knew from the ring

that it was my daughter. Upon answering it

I found my youngest grandson Braden facetiming

with me. 

Then I talked to the middle one.

Here is a pic they sent me later.

Tuesday my daughter will be 

40  haha....I mean 37. Love

messing with her. 

I will bake her a cake and take

it to her work which is 15 minutes

from me instead of to her home that

is an hour away. 

With that, her and Will and the 

kids are also moving next week.

They will be moving about 15 minutes

further out then she is now. 

Moving from an apartment to a 

mobile home. Kids will have room

to run and play. 

In reply to several comments on my blog,

I am still dealing with pain, it is a given with 

cold weather. Yesterday's temps were 

up near 50 so I did have a better day.

I am just having to push a bit more to get 

things done. Thank you all for the 

concern and comments, it is very

sweet of you to comment and show your

concern.

Thanks for stopping in,
