1 - large bin containing warm winter hats, boots, long underwear, etc - Rob went kayaking this morning and had to find a hat, gloves, and water repellent coat
2 - cute little girls before heading off to school
4 - number of Kate-centered meltdowns this morning stemming from: waking up and getting a shower, the new jeans, a "lack" of suitable shoes, not finding her homework folder - all produced real tears (how am I going to get through the teen years?)
4 - number of serving pieces my friend, Whitney (from Collage Specialty Shop) has given me as a thank-you

| my newest and favorite piece |
$5.98 - the cost of these jeans from the Gap. They had 40% off of everything on Monday - I grabbed 2 pairs of leggings, one pair of jeans, two skirts, and two shirts [for the girls] for $38.99 - (Christmas presents)
12 - number of months I've waited to use these 4 towels (thanks, Mom!)
25 - number of hours we spent at the cabin this past weekend - can't wait to head back
$27.07 - the amount I spent to fill up this beast with gas. Normally, we pay about $75, but I had $1.60 discount per gallon at Giant (my mom lets me combine her and my points for redemption)
43 - degrees when we woke up this morning (and Rob headed off to kayak) brrrr....
...love those serving pieces! And I can't believe you were able to resist temptation for a year in holding off using new towels!
ReplyDeleteCrazy bargains on the shopping. Well done!
ReplyDeleteI had a cold shower in around 45 degrees this morning. Of course that wasnt by choice.
You'll develop skills in ignoring you never knew you had by the teen years -I think they call it self preservation.
