Friday was a run around day for me, at least when my son didn't have my car... Spent $8 on yarn. I crochet for the newborns at a local hospital, for their PICU, and they made a request for more items. Realized Saturday I should have bought a little more, so Sunday bought 2 more skeins of Boucle and some clearance fabric. My grandson has decided he needs to be a superhero when he grows up, so I bought a black backgound fabric with tons of blue sparkles all over it. It appears not to unravel, so the associate at the store thought I should be able to make a tie, or use a button, or Velcro to make it easy for him to fasten/unfasten. Did I mention he's 3 1/2? The fabric is so wide that I'm thinking another cape may make it to the next craft fair...
Saturday was cleaning/laundry/returning calls/dishes... all the fun stuff. At least I got to top it off with a hotel stay locally, at a site that had a pool. 94 degrees is very usual for us and I had been suffering. I will be reimbursed for the hotel, room service and a restaurant meal. My kind of shop! Today I've spent $$ eating out. It wasn't supposed to happen that way, but I didn't expect to be babysitting DGS last night, or getting up at 05:30 to complete paperwork I''m working until midnight, and my 2 coworkers both called in sick. It very rarely happens, and I'd rather see them feeling good than miserable all week because they stayed when they shouldn't have. Because of this, and since 1 was late notice, I had to buy a salad for supper. Altogether $24 spent today including parking. The only $ I spent yesterday unmentioned was $1.50 in library fines, and $1.75 fo r the Sunday paper. Any ideas on how to manage so much life without time to cook?
