Yesterday I drove to work mainly so I could drop off the vacuum cleaner for repair. Well, the shop was closed. It closes every Monday. Too bad I didn't check that out in advance.
I looked around for another shop I could stop at on the way home. But when I found it, it was shuttered and it looked like there was some kind of legal notice on the door. WTF??? Am I just not destined to get this vacuum fixed?
So I drove again today and will take it to the shop I originally planned to go to. They've worked on the same vacuum before, so maybe it's just as well.
I stopped for gas this morning - $24. And I shipped a package of books to my sister yesterday - $6. I have $132 left in my $300 challenge.
My Florida son called last night with different options for my trip in February. Basically, he has been talking to my cousin, who would like to engineer a family get-together on SuperBowl weekend. While I think that would be really fun, the point of my trip is to help my son with his garage sale. I can't do both. Not quite sure what to do!
On Thursday I have a board meeting in the city. Not sure how it will impact me financially. I hope that the location is near enough the station so that I can walk and won't incur a taxi fare. It also looks like lunch is provided, so I don't have to worry about that. Maybe the meeting will not cost me anything. I do hope the weather cooperates.
I forgot to pick up my prescription yesterday and thus didn't get my $25 gift card yet. Must remember tonight!
