Overflowing Acres

Jan. 12, 2008

I did it again!

Well today we decided to go to breakfast at Arby's.  Then afterwards Rob would drive over to BK to use the WiFi to get the updates for TurboTax, while the children and I made a drop at Goodwill and did another check for pants for the boys (Trystan 10 and Reide 8) who are always and forever putting holes in their pants.  I have patched them all and they  "needed" church pants. 

After walking through the store 4 times, I managed to pay for: 1 much needed church shirt for myself, a pair of good jeans for Trystan (need to have a belt loop sewn back on...no biggie), 2 computer games for school and 4 Sugar Creek Gang books (Heather will justify this as a need if any are questioning it).  I made it out of the store without even being tempted to buy any junk. 

After we were done there we went to church to clean because it was our week.   The only cleaner  there was the really bad stuff.  You know the kind that if it comes in contact with your skin it burns?!   I'll make some of mine up and take it in tomorrow.

Which also reminds me.  Tomorrow is potluck.  I have a whole case of sour cream (free from a drop off, thank you Jesus!)  I think I'll make up some sour cream muffins and some Frosted banana bars!  YUM!

You are breezing through your temptations so far. I think all the purchases were justified. :-)

I did not buy anything at all today. Not one thing. Of course I didn't go to any stores, either. hehe

I do think I may be in the market for an Iron Lung, though. Have you seen any at the thrift store?
