  • Re: Saturday November 21 $$$ Stretching

     Went to the library this afternoon to borrow books for reading.  Spent $6 on a 2 litre of Pepsi and a box of Bisto gravy mix.  Had put a roast of beef in the oven before I left (actually about 11am this morning ) so when I came home  it was almost ready.  Cooked Yorkshire puddings instead of roast spuds, and had ...

  • Re: Giving up the Goats

     Michelle- sounds like you are slowly "moving on" with things.  Many times we forget that life is full of changes and expect things to always be the same and then we are disappointed when it is not like that.  I expected my Dad to live longer and always be the same.  In truth , he had a couple of major heart attacks ...

  • Re: Fri. Nov. 13 How are You Stretching Today?

  • Re: What was for Supper?

     I was supposed to go for lunch tomorrow to treat a girlfriend for her birthday lunch but she backed out due to wanting to paint her ceiling. :(   Feeling a bit disheartened I stopped at the new Applebees Restaurant in Victoria and treated myself to dinner.  The steak and shrimp were excellent but the garlic mashed spuds tasted ...

  • Re: What did you accomplish in 2009?

     I got myself a new job which I like very much and can do until I retire.  I have no debts and have started to re build my credit back up(after bankruptcy a few years back).  I have savings in the bank to use as a down payment on a mobile home that I have found and hope to get. This by way of money via Dear Old Dad and Step ...

  • Re: Steers across fence eating my trees

     Zohnerfarms, How about an update on the steers/trees situation?  Did the other trees survive the steers?  Are the steers gone to slaughter?  Enquiring minds would like to know LOL. Hugs Sally.
