Been reading but not posting the last few days. I have a feeling that will change now. I just got back from the Dr and she put me on Predisone, which means I won't be sleeping at all for a few days. But it is worth it, I do breathe better. The inhaled steroids (pulmacort) didn't seem to be cutting it. I am on a short burst of Predisone so hopefully only a few nights of manic cleaning into the wee hours of the night.
I have decided to stay home from the movie tonight. I didn't want to cough and blow my nose through the entire movie and bother people. So Tommy and I will be staying home.
Friday is my pampered chef party. I have a lot of outside orders already. Not sure home many people will be actually coming to the party. I hate to call and ask them, just not within my comfort zone. I need to still go to the grocery store and buy the items to make the food for the party.
I did grocery shopping Tuesday and finished today. I stayed under my 150.00 budget for two weeks. I was happy about that. I bought most of my staples at Cub Foods and spent 91.74 and today I went to Rainbow and spent 24.08. At Rainbow I bought pork spare ribs which were on sale for .99 a pound. I bought 6 packs, so should be set for a while. I stock up on meat only when one sale and plan my meals around what I have in the freezer mostly. So my grand total for 2 weeks of groceries was 115.82. Pretty good, I think even after I go buy the items for I need for the party I will still be under my 150 budget. YEAH!! Always makes me happy, but I hate taking the time to menu plan and clip coupons. It takes me almost 2 hours to get it all done, but so worth it. Especially since I saved money on groceries I could afford to get my haircut at the spa! LOL!! So Tuesday I got my haircut and had my eyebrows waxed.
My curtain saga continues..............I still don't ahve curtains in my living room. I am not so happy with JCPenney right now, but that is material for another blag. I have to run and pick up Tommy so I have supper ready for Josh and Paul to go to the movie tonight. LATER!!!

Hope the meds don't keep you up too much.
I need to buy a garlic press and a couple of other pampered chef items. Email me your link asap and I'll order them so you get credit.
I also shop wisely. Fun, isn't it?
Sorry about the asthma. Hope you're able to get some sleep.
good job on the budget grocery shopping!
Hope your pampered chef party turns out well tomorrow. Blessings!
