To all my friends, I hope this mother's day is wondrous and full of many blessings!
Yesterday was a full and fun day. Beloved and I went to a small town called Bronte. It is about 30 miles out of San Angelo. A lovely little town too. Lots of pecan trees in blossom. On the way we saw many scorched miles of trees. There was little traffic. We hit I think every sale in the town!
I managed to score:
The Complete tightwad Gazette, hard cover!
A 4 in one GHL book
A couple other Christian Romance books
A red and white utensil jug for my kitchen!
a new key board
2 red purses
a really pretty nightie
a denim skirt
about a dozen Country Hand Crafts magazines, by Reiman
a baggie of rick rack
hmmmm I think that covers my score. Before heading home we stopped at a fundraiser selling burgers, chips, drink and homemade cookies for $6 a plate. It supported relay for life, and I always support them when I can!
It was only 11:30 when we left Bronte and headed back to Angelo so we decided to try and hit up the church sales here too. We found 2 of the 3 listed.
At the first I got 2 more ice cube trays. At the second I got a set of speakers for my big pc (kitties broke my old ones) and a lap top mouse pad.
When we got home, DS1 pulled in right behind us. He came to rework some PC stuff and do his laundry. He hooked up my new keyboard for me, and discovered the speakers came with the wrong power supply! Oh well.
DS2 showed up shortly afterward with his fiancee to do their laundry too. We spent the afternoon playing Boggle.
All 3 wished me a happy mom's day before they left.
Today will be a quiet day at home. I want to do laundry and tidy up and read.
hope you all have a blessed day too!
hugs y'all!
Sounds like a lovely day. You really scored big on your shopping trip!
