I'm a list person.... I seem to get more accomplished when I can visually see in front of me what I need to do and by when. Nothing's feels better than to be able to highlight them off or put a big check mark by them and write "DONE".
Once I got home with my parents, of coarse there were thingsnthatbhey needed to do....so doing what I do, I made my daddy and I a list.....my mom was comfortable and said she would be ok left alone for a bit...so we got bundled up, yes it was snowing, list in hand and ready to do this!
1. Kohl's..... The 1500 watt Nija was on sale... And on this day it was an additional 10% off, along with a 30% off coupon if u used ur charge card. You see, my dad loves gadgets, big or small, and while in California he saw how nifty nae's Nija worked, so he needs one or should I say wants one! Yet wouldn't you know out of them, yet a rain check with all the discounts......I couldn't be I Kohl's and not get me another pain of Pam's to lounge around in!
2. Price-Cutter... The grocery store my daddy works out... Had 2 paychecks to pick up, had to buy his dozen home layed brown eggs from one of his co-workers, deliver another co-worker some Melaluca vitamins, I got a hot apple cider from Starbucks inside the store being that it was
Snowing still, a little something to warm us up, knowing we still had several stops. oh, and we rented the DVD "Flight" with Denzel Washington to watch that evening.
3. His local bank....
4. His phone company to Make a change on his cell phone plan.
5. Braum's.... A local chain back here that is a fast food restaurant , an ice cream joint and they apparently have the best milk around. Half gallon of milk, half gallon of buttermilk ( I know, I know, spoiled curdled milk) and some vanilla bean ice cream for a dessert once he gets his ninja!
6. Sam's (like our Costco) to get gas .... Cheapest place around.... 3.16$ per gallon.
7. Quick stop by the house to put the ice cream in the freezer, milk in the frig and make sure my mom was doing ok.....she was laying down...so we were off again...only one more stop.
8. Aldi's.......a no frills grocery store. How I wish we had one of these stores. First of all u pay .25 cents for a cart, but get it back when u return the cart. I am amazed every time I go there.... Why wouldn't u shop there? We of coarse had our list though....avacados for 25 cents each, strawberries 99 cents for big container, 1.29$ for a cantaloupe , kiwi's were cheap, hamburger buns 79 cents, we did pretty well and stuck to the circled things on their ad that we had marked....well except for the cookies.... My daddy said my mommy is crazy for sending us to alone!,
Well, being neither one of us are crazy about running errands, we did a fine job, and had fun at the same time, listening to some gospel music and some redneck music by Blake Shelton... Chew tobacco , chew tobacco, SPIT... My daddy is loving my music! So yes, it was about 3 hours well-spent!!! 8 things accomplished and 3 hours of Unreplaceable time together..... Each day is Unreplaceable.... Today was perfect and I can't wait to worship The Lord together tomorrow, and looking forward to my daddy going to "CELEBRATE RECOVERY" at his church with me Monday nite, Lord willing... They know how passionate I am about recovery and how important it is to fight this disease each and everyday...
All because of His AMAZING GRACE.....
