10:00am


Me and mom went to the Infinity .99 cents store.
I was still on the hunt for some aluminum loaf tins with lids
and the condiment bottles.
Well they had the loaf pans but they didn't come with lids :0(
And I didn't see any condiment bottles either.
So I walked around the store to see what all they had
and ran across these little plastic lunch boxes
that looked like they could be mini toolboxes :0)
I bought 5 of them for all the maintenance guys
at hubby's work.  I plan to bake some tool shaped
cookies to put in them and gift them as gifts to the guys.
If I were to have bought 2 packs of 3 each aluminum loaf
pans with lids at Kroger it would have cost over $6.50+
I actually ended up being cheaper for me to
purchase these reusable plastic boxes for $5.00.






1:30pm


Working on making a lasagna for supper
along with a couple extra lasagnas for the freezer.

1 box lasagna noodles $1.00
1 pound ground beef- free
1 pound ground turkey- $1.79
2 cans diced tomatoes with juice $1.00
2 cans 4 cheese spaghetti sauce $2.00
1 large tub cottage cheese $1.67
3 cups mozarella cheese $2.92

TOTAL COST FOR 3 LASAGNAS $11.38.
Cost per each lasagna $3.79.
This is enough for 3 suppers for 4 people
plus 3 work lunches for hubby!





4:45pm



Another day without having the furnace on!
Gotta love it.
Didn't run it all day or night yesterday.
It says our high today only got to 63 degrees on weather.com.

This can't be good!  LOL
Some of the things kids come up with.
Took a water balloon and put it around a big bolt
then put in a wooden skewer, pulled back
and is using it like a bow and arrow.
AHHHHHH!  Run kitties!!  LOL.



5:45pm


Sitting down to supper.
When hubby got home we raced before it got dark to try and get
the dryer ducts measured for the solar heater's
new area and added another duct elbow.
Tomorrow we'll get all the clamps on
and get it all put back together and have it running
again by Wednesday when it's supposed to turn
cold but sunny.
