I have ten grandchildren and any anytime I find ten items like that at a great deal it usually inspires something fun to do with my grandchildren. My blog is filled with such finds. They are usually recycled into some kind of craft or gift for my grandchildren. Tip for the tins: Eat the chocolates and save the tins! Next year you can put anything you want in them. A couple of days ago I came across snow globe ornaments with names printed on them. They had started out being $7.99 each. I found them for ten cents each. You better believe it I had ten of them in my cart. Not a single printed name matched any of my grandchildren but I could not pass the deal up. After all my savings was nearly $90 bucks! I came home and using my label maker I made each grand childs name to cover the other names and they turned out really cute. They got tucked away in my Grandkids Christmas Day Camp tub in my garage. I have almost a year to think of how I want to use my amazing find! http://grandmaslittlepearls.com You are my kind of gal picking up the after Valentine finds at great prices!

I am starting to feel better already now that my system is getting used to all those med changes. It's so nice to have my own little support group who laugh at my silly attempts at humor! I wish I could have you all over for lunch. Ohhhh sometimes I am such a whiner … but I have decided sometimes it’s okay.

But when I'm taking it I feel like I'm 25 again. Watch out for the weight gain though. It'll sneak up on you. Hope you don't need it before long. And I'm really looking forward to hearing about that new book--but only after you're ready. Sometimes revealing too much too soon can mess it up for you. Send me your address and I'll send you a book about writing a novel in a weekend (or something like that). I'm serious! It might help you organize your thoughts.

LOL Now that you are back into your house with more room for sales items - you are off and running. I bet Lynn will heal from his surgeries as quick as he possibly can - just to get you back into the small space of your motor home where you can't fit sales into it. You make me laugh and I sure do love you ..... goofy sister of mine. Old ‘habits’ die slow and resurface quickly.

I must say that if I were to act like you puppy it would not be a pretty sight. It was good to see you and Lynn. About the name, Kris is what everyone calls her.

Notice the use of the word good (four times now). I am not the writer at all like you are. That's why I enjoy reading your posts so much. Very entertaining and you say it like is is.
