The weekend went way too fast for us. We finally got to a area butcher shop, and took advantage of a few "bulk" buy deals (locally raised, no antibiotics, butchered at the shop etc.). We also took care of most of my errand list in the pouring down rain (yeah for rain).
However after two days of errands, the truck is out of commission. My husband, accidently ran over something and spent all evening working on the truck. It is still not running. On a good note? The back of the truck is full of supplies for building the new chicken coop.
It threw our plans off for the evening. Daughter E was to bring her car out for some work to be done. That didn't happen. We were to deliver our older car to a repair man, so it could be sold soon, and that did not happen.
It's been literally one thing after another here.
We found out our electric company we have, has raised the cost 110% starting last June. We are currently looking into changing energy companies. I have no idea where to start, but it obviously has to be done. 110%??? How can anyone afford that? I just got my July bill and it was an estimated amount, and the cost did go up that much.
Today I am joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.
I will link up when she posts today.
The weather . . .
80's, possible rain and I'm okay with that. I have indoor work to catch up on.
As I look outside my window . . .
Woke up to moisture on the windows. We are once again dealing with Canadian wildfire smoke haze, and it's been in the air for the last two days in our area.
Right now I am . . .
Brewing coffee, and posting this post.
Thinking and pondering . . .
We really need a camping trip. We have not gone camping once this year. Every time I sit down to check a possible date, the campgrounds are completely booked or only have non-electric.
Listening to . . .
80's rock and roll
How I am feeling . . .
Well, considering last night's fiasco, not exactly chipper.
On the breakfast plate . . .
Have no idea yet.
What I am wearing . . .
Still in pajamas, running a bit later than usual.
On the reading pile . . .
Nothing. I haven't had time to do any reading.
On my TV . . .
Netflix. Whatever catches our attention.
On the menu. . .
-cabbage goulash, grilled zucchini
-Perch, yellow squash patties
-Taco Zucchini Boats
Looking around the house . . .
All donations were dropped off over the weekend, so those are out of the house thankfully. I have my drop cloth and saw horses set up to start painting doors. Hopefully this week.
On the to-do list . . .
-Floors
-Master bathroom
-freeze zucchini
