It is sad, that we see some relatives so little. Everyone keeps getting older, yet we do not visit more.<br />That is a lot of stuff to be moving - my goodness.

And as she's twirling around on one foot and singing and talking she mentions, my sore throat isn't as bad today. YOU HAVE A SORE THROAT!! Yah, she says but it doesn't hurt as bad today. Two days later I've got it, but it didn't come with the energy to twirl and sing. She's long over it and I'm still dragging along. It's a good thing grandparents LOVE their grands. :-[ <br />Glad you're back, Cheryl.

It has been a week of prayer here. So many were sick and in need but the week ended with many good reports of healing. We got out to the stores yesterday to grab a bunch of crazy good deals and freebies. We also had a prowler shining a flashlight in our screen porch on Wednesday night. These are desperate times for many but coming into our backyard while we were still awake was just not smart.Lanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09380649410508372279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-43076718755003797102023-02-05T10:06:52.981-05:002023-02-05T10:06:52.981-05:00Glad you took some time to yourself this week to r...Glad you took some time to yourself this week to rest and reflect. We all need to do that, regardless of what is going on in our lives.<br />The warmer weather has arrived, hooray! Followed by more snow, boo! But I'll take a bit of snow for the just below freezing temps. It looks it will last for at least a week - I don't trust the forecast more than 7 days out.<br />The daffodils will be welcome I'm sure. They are such happy flowers.Maebemehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09706540456819503068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-57567125848261357582023-02-05T09:46:12.328-05:002023-02-05T09:46:12.328-05:00It was a quiet week here too.

It's supposed to rain tomorrow, which should clear up the last bits of snow. <br /><br />After 22 total hours of driving, we got back home Monday afternoon. The Celebration of Life was very nice. It was good to see family, some that we may not see again in this lifetime. It was also good to be home. BIL and one Uncle should arrive today with a U-Haul truck + trailer for BIL's storage units. Uncle has to be back in Phoenix tomorrow, so it'll be a quick trip. BIL probably has 2-3 more trips with stuff before the end of the month. I get tired thinking about it, but this, too, shall pass. Thank you for those verses and prayer!<br /><br />Meals were simple: spaghetti and meatballs, roast chicken with rice and veg, pork ribs with rice and veg, pork fried rice, French toast and eggs (we sometime like breakfast for dinner), and a pot of sausage, spinach and tortellini soup using homemade broth. Not many grocery deals this week, but we're pretty well stocked, so just milk, bread, eggs, some produce and peanut butter. Tasks were just the usual things, though I did bake a big batch of chocolate chip cookies, which I'm sure will be welcome today.<br />--EliseEM Griffithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05897942424655139102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-17348245480544126402023-02-05T09:37:02.574-05:002023-02-05T09:37:02.574-05:00Sign up for an account with them.

I never got coupons with the old one.<br />They transferred all my points to the new one. Now I can get digital coupons (they are great), and they send me coupons for things I buy. I get a new set of coupons each month. I hope that helps.<br />Glad to have you here, look forward to getting to know you and have you share ideas!!!!!<br />Have a great week.Cheryl Kimbleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06485771676254429681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-84864048490820665972023-02-05T09:31:47.384-05:002023-02-05T09:31:47.384-05:00Thanks - just a week of reflection.
