Jammin'

December 16th, 2019 at 05:14 pm

I got the jam made yesterday, though I did not find the original recipe I used last year. This batch is a little thicker and less sweet than last year's -- but it is still good!

Then I grocery-shopped for the food I could buy ahead for our family Christmas party, spending $51.

This morning I went to the gym, and mailed off a rather long form to the insurance company that is handling a claim against me. I can't understand how the woman behind this can believe that I am solely responsible for a backup bump in a parking lot, but there are all kinds. I thought she had agreed to a 50/50 settlement, but still this is dragging on.

I am now on the winter plan for filling up the tank -- that is, I fill up when it gets down to half full. I did that this morning - $20. I remember -- and it was not that long ago -- when I was surprised that I spent $20 on a full tank. Now it's twice as much, and I don't even blink.

    wow to fill up our car it is over $100...we pay so much for petrol here..around $7.87 per gallon (we use litres which is around 4.5 litres per gallon)...I would love to pay so little for gas

    Your title made me smile. I'm listening to the Bob Marley tune on YouTube right now. I forgot how much I love this song!

    What kind of jam, CB? I was thinking of making the christmas strawberry/cranberry jam of years past.

    Sounds like you got a lot accomplished!

    I guess higher gas is the new normal. We try not to get below half a tank in bad weather.
