Hi everyone. I have not had a frugal day but its been a good day anyway.
Took ds to the orthodontist. We went to walmart and food city. Once again, I was upset to find some of the normal things I buy had really gone up a lot. Tp (store brand) was up a 1.00 and detergent was up a 1.00 or more that I buy. Unfrugal, was my jar of Ragu falling out of the bag on the way into the house and hitting the sidewalk and busting. I am thankful no one got cut. We got gas for the car. It was 3.59 today.
Roberta, I hope your dd feels better soon. I hope you all enjoy your trip.
Jacki, I am glad you had a good time on your get away. Yes, its amazing how many things there are to do in Pigeon Forge. I haven't even begun to do all there is there. Also, Gatlinburg is close by with so much to do there. The problem is its so expensive to do anything there. Going up in the Smoky Mts is so wonderful. Cades Cove is my favorite place there. Its so beautiful and we just love to drive around and see and count the deer and wildlife. I imagine years ago when the settlers were there it was such a wonderful place to farm and live. I am sure it was a hard life but a wonderful one. We live about 3 and half hours away from there. I hope we can go back there one of these days.
Its hard to believe September is gone. The time is going by so fast. This year has just flown by it seems.
Being frugal now seems more important than ever with the economy being like it is. I really don't understand about the bail out plan for the banks all that well but it really concerns me. I just don't know how its going to effect families.
Well sorry I have rambled on so much. I hope you all sleep well and have a great day tomorrow.
Jean
