July 1 doings

Hello everyone 

interested in what we did July 1? 

I started the day with a long list of errands 

My husband drove me and we did every errand except we didn’t buy a few things that I thought we might. 

I’m still wearing Kiss press on nails.  

This pattern is called Hearts Aflutter.  

Their names make no sense.

  I would have named these Gingham & Fruit.  

I’ve been doing some small coupon shopping trips.  This is what I bought July 1, plus 2 6 packs of paper towels not pictured 

I spent $7 at Walgreens and $15.33 at CVS 

If you’re interested in coupon shopping, there are many online experts.  My favorites are Savvy Coupon Shopper and LASavings.  Both are on Youtube  and Instagram, Facebook etc

Look at the deals they suggest and do a small trip.  I like to do deals that give store money back.  That money makes the next week’s purchase cost less.  

I share my extras with family members.  

Our ten year grandson is especially fond of a pump bottles of Irish Spring 5 in 1 shampoo, conditioner, body wash, face wash and I don’t remember what the 5th thing does. 

 He thinks it’s very efficient 😊

My husband and I are working on a doll house that belongs to our oldest granddaughter.  

By her request, it stays at our house.  

she started painting it a while ago but didn’t finish.  

so we are doing exterior paint, flooring, roof shingles and wallpaper while she is away this summer.  

it’s fun.  

if you didn’t know,  dollhouses and miniatures are a big deal right now.  Look on Pinterest if you have a few hours to spare.  

Hope you are all well

our garden, another grocery delivery and some baking

Hello everyone 

I normally look at the new Kroger sale ad on Wednesday and place an order to come Thursday.

Last week,  I guess they were closed or something last week as I could not get my delivery until Monday.  

I didn’t plan to get another order so soon but this week’s  ad had some great sales so I put in a small order.  

a spiral ham probably for Easter,  ice cream sandwiches were $1.99 a box 

the flour was $2.19 (I don’t think that’s super low but I do like this unbleached flour) 

You can see part of the sale add below 

Kroger Math is crazy!  they don’t show the actual total until checkout but I’m very happy with all this for $35.78.  

It took me 2 days but all the tomato, pepper, herb and flower plants are in the ground or big pots.  

green beans, tomatoes and peppers here, and a few short zinnias 

more peppers and tomatoes on this end

The 70 MPH we had a couple weeks damaged our fence 😵‍💫😱

but these faux barrels have tomato plants in them 

The clear tub is a few potatoes,  the barrel on the far left is pink peonies that should be blooming soon 

Our favorite OKC meteorologist is about an hour south and he said he saw his first hummingbird yesterday.  

So I made some nectar and hung up 1 of ours.  

I sure hope they come back, they are so fun to watch.  

The back treatment my husband had about 2 weeks had a possibility of a year of pain relief.  

Sadly, he only had about a week.

He will be seeing the doctor again soon.  

It very frustrating to have tried so many things but he is still miserable.  

Supper tonight was burgers on another batch of homemade buns.  

Isn’t this towel cute?  I made it years ago with some vintage fabric either from a thrift store or rummage sale.  

Some of that older fabric was so high quality,  it just lasts and lasts.  

That’s all the news from here

hope you are all having a good week 

❤️ Rhonda
