Did a Costco shopping trip today. Spent over $600 and did not buy anything other than regular consumables.

I did get a nice donation to my baseball league a few days ago, though. A few sets of catcher gear, a bucket of balls, and a set of bases. Probably $400 worth of stuff that I will not have to buy now.

Costco just arrived in Oz. Is it really a great place to shop as far as bargains and discounts go? They’re asking for an annual membership fee…

It is worth it in Canada for my wife and I. We get the Executive membership which costs I think about $120 a year, but it gets you 2% cash back (that is on top of any cash back you get with your credit card). Our cash back has always been more than the cost of the membership. But we do shop there a lot.

Sounds reasonable. It’s also $60.00 each here as well. I’ll check it out for sure.

That's what we have. Cosco is awesome.

We are on our way to the county clerks office two hours away because my mom needs documents for her SSI. Because Fred's dead.

Anyway we just bought coffees and water and gas.

$700.00 insurance excess for my wife. An over-sized truck scraped the side of her car. The truck driver weeped and wailed and carried on like an angry frog in a sock multilevel my wife admitted that she was in the wrong. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. At least my wife came out unscathed from the ordeal. One of my biggest fears is to be mangled in a road accident. No thanks…

A crown for the implant worked to be finished on a tooth.. It's weird having that kind of work done in your mouth. Drills, ratchets, and what not...even though it was completely pain free, the knowledge someone is drilling a screw into your head is freaky.

 

[Breakfall]

About to go and purchase another microwave for my loving wife. She has a habit of killing them to bits!

 

[mastersplither]

Breakfast for 2 of my nephews who came over for the weekend. They wanted to go to the gym with me this morning. Going to wake them up shortly and laugh at the look of regret on their faces.

4 New York steaks from San Martin. The best in these parts.

$249.95 for the youngest's 12th birthday party. This includes four pizzas, bread sticks, chicken wings as well as chicken nuggets with dipping sauces, an hour of bumper cars, one hour of laser tag, one hour of two lanes of bowling, as well as 25 plays at video games per kid for 12 kids. Unlimited soda and salad bar is also included as well as cake and ice cream for 12 kids. Balloons and party decorations included. It still seems rather rich to me but my wife insisted.

Hopefully the kids have fun. Bonus: It is less than one mile from home, has a full bar, as well as a pool hall but that costs extra. I figure if I get out for less than $500 then I am in good shape. You know adults will want drinks, appetizers, and some more stuff. Their business model seems to relay upon that.

I'm all for those package deals. By the time you do run around buying food, decorations, cake, goodie bags, etc...you've already spent much more. Then you have to clean up after all the kids.

This is why I did the same type of thing you did when the kids were a little bigger.

New: sectional sofa, decorative pillows, drapes/sheer/hardware, and a throw blanket for his leather chair.

Estate Sale: a decorative plate/bowl kinda thingy for my dinning room, which I found out is signed and worth over $800 ~ I paid $38, a lovely settee and 3 vases.

Future purchase: slip cover for the settee.

Sounds like you're making lots of change to your beach home. Fun!

Oh my goodness….

I stripped and sanded all of the 1940s paneling, doors and windows (which are in surprisingly good condition) in the den. I stained and/or painted everything in the entire room. He rewired everything, installed recessed ceiling lights, USB outlets, and a panel with dimmers that controls the entire room, and he installed the custom flooring which he was able to get flush enough that it will be seamless when we install the Spanish tile in the kitchen floor. I need to stain the floor trim molding and he gets to install it and then I get to decorate and then the den is DONE and ready to be decorated.

Ooh I forgot to add….


FREE: a HUGE wool rug my neighbor gave me that she paid a small fortune for that I’m hopeful I can salvage with a good cleaning. It’s cream colored and the edges are grey from dust. She didn’t want to bother with it and said it was mine it I wanted it. He calls it the trash rug because cabrón!

We.did the canister light three years ago. The contractor didn't get them perfectly square, they are a few degrees off, but the do well with the ceiling fan.

cream soda is just cola with vanilla added but i think the real thing in the old days was cola, milk AND vanilla extract
