Saturday Ramblings

Today was a very nice day outside. Once we finally got up and got to moving around, we decided to ride up the road to one of the country Churches. They were having their Spring Garage Sale so we went to see what they had. This is the same Church where I did a vendor event at in September 2024. They had told me that they would be having another Arts & Crafts Sale and a Garage Sale in the Spring and I was looking forward to it. When I saw the flier for the event, it only had Garage Sale on it. My husband road along with me and we got there right before time to pick everything up. I saw a lap quilt and crocheted lap blanket that was marked down to under $5. I was mad at myself for not getting them after we had left. I did fine some good books and a box of cookbooks that were only $1.00 each. I ended up with 4 new cookbooks. Other than that the day was spent feeding and watering pets, washing dishes, and one load of laundry. I have to make another run through the kitchen and stick a few more things in the dishwasher. Then I am off to bed! What did you do today on this first day of March? Photo Credit: Pixabay, Public Domain

We didn't do a whole lot, after a full week we kind of lounged most of the day. It is about time for night meds and curling up for bed.

Ditto on that. After a not so good night of sleep Friday night, I was fighting to stay awake and not dive into bed at 7 pm!!

@kareng You stayed up way longer than I thought you would last night. I'm finally eating breakfast before we try to figure out what we are going to do today.

Those sound like good bargains. I like picking up cheap books in this way.

There was another lady next to this one that had a ton of books that she was letting go very cheap. I was tempted, but I have way too many here already waiting to be read!

@kareng I try to make it a rule that for every book I buy I have to get rid of one somehow. Of course, Sometimes I forget.

@JudyEv Maybe I need to start following that rule!! I do list some on Ebay and take some to the flea market.

March first was my birthday, so I went out to lunch with my dad, and then my best friend and I got a pedicure and went out for dinner to celebrate. It was a good day.

It was the perfect time of the year for them to do it also. They were set up inside the Community Hall and outside too.

It was mostly a do-nothing day, which is unusual for us on a Saturday, but I think we needed to just unwind a bit, and so we did.

Sometimes I do not get something for a good price and wish I had to. I like yard sales and Thrift stores you can always get good prices.

I think my husband distracted me. I was thinking in my mind that I would swing back around and get them. Then I looked through the books and cookbooks. Needed change from my purchase and the man had to go find his wife to get my change. My hubby was bored and waiting at the door for me. Oh well. Not a big deal.
