No Better

April 1st, 2020 at 12:01 pm

DIL, as of last night, was feeling no better. I told her I wouldn't rest until she was feeling better and she messaged me, "REST!" with a heart. Maybe today.

I'm going to test Walgreens' drive-thru service for non-pharmacy items today. It's not clear how to do it, so I made a shopping list of seven items online and printed it out. I don't want to get out of the car. If this doesn't work, I'll go back to the drawing board. I plan to be there at nine when it opens.

Yesterday I painted a side table that I have been planning to paint for literally years. I thought, okay, what am I waiting for now? I had to mix some paints to get enough, but it turned out a very nice barn red and the table looks great. I'll post a picture if I can.

Here is my March recap:

Housing: $774
Fees/Services: $189
Utilities: $152
Groceries: $115
Clothing: $58
Vet/Pet Supplies: $56
Phone: $51
Entertainment: $49
Eating Out: $47
Medical/Health: $38
Car Repair/Maintenance: $36
Laundry: $20
Gas: $17
Fares/Parking: $1

Grand Total: $1603

My lowest month this year, no wonder! The fee was for Ancestry.com, the clothing was booties and a scarf and a backpack (booties in the process of being exchanged), entertainment was a movie and a book, the eating out all occurred before the virus hit, the car repair was an oil change.

The next few weeks will be bad for the country. I'm going to try to stay in as much as possible, as I've said before!

Edit -- sorry -- forgot to try to post the picture. Dont' see a way to do it in the edit.
