It's the kind of day where if someone asks you 'is it nice outside?' you say 'it's sunny' because it's really on the chilly and windy side!
My morning fun was stopping by the No Frills grocery store as their Dollar sale started today. I met a frugal friend in there by chance. I was amazed at all the things I picked up and my bill was only about $50. I noticed my friend was stocking up on bottled water and juice, so I did the same. It's my sister's birthday so I called her and she misunderstood and warned me not to buy food items in a dollar store as she felt the quality is compromised. I wouldn't call myself cheap, but I do love a bargain. Now let's hope K will eat those 4 boxes of assorted soft cookies I got for his lunchbox!
Speaking of bargains, we're off to Jamaica on an all-inclusive package vacation mid-March as the kids will be off. K is really excited, he realized early on in life that vacations are fun.
L has been staying late at school rehearsing for their play. She has a bit part with no lines, (she's part of the crowd) but she has 3 costume changes and appears at the beginning, middle and end of the play. It means that she was scrambling to finish studying for her chemistry test today. It must be tough for the ones that have a lot of lines. Life is hectic.
I'm playing telephone tag with my uncle to find out the details of the funeral arrangements for my aunt late next week.
I just heard on the news that the Slumdog Millionaire lead actress has abandoned her husband that she married Dec 2007 and is dating the Slumdog Lead Actor.

Oh we did a major shopping at FoodBasic when we moved from Oak to here. We were two weeks homeless and the storage co would not take any food so we donated everything. We had two baskets of the basics, can stuff etc... and the bill was just a little over $200.00 I know if it had been elsewhere it would have been double that for sure.
Oh I saw that JD Fortune thing on TV it is truly a rags to riches to rags story if there ever was one. I hope he finds his way again. He is a good singer.
makes you wonder where his parents are, looks like he could use some guidance for all that talent!
are you buying a lottery ticket? heard the jackpot's huge this weekend.
Oh interesting gossip on the Slumdog front! Jamaica, how fantastic. You need it after all that cold and snow. Well I think there are bargains to be had in cheap stores its true.
I am excited to hear you are going to Jamaica! I hope you share lots of pics with us :-)
Lilly and Japra, I'm looking forward to the Jamaica trip, but I'm the sort that has to plan trips to the nth degree which can take some fun out of it I think.
