Good news, Christopher doesn't need glasses!
Yeah!
He had an eye doctor appointment
this morning at 10:00am.
From there we went to pick up our
rotors from NAPA.
One of them were slightly warped and
by having it turned it fixed the problem.
And will also save the excessive wear
and tear on the brake pads.
And it should take away the vibration
the car was having when applying brakes.
For 2 rotors to be turned cost $28.
To buy 2 new ones would have cost $90.
So we saved money there!

Currently working on Jonathan's bedroom
and I don't mean a quick pick up either.
I'm rearranging furniture, weeding clothes
out of the closet and giving it an overhaul.
I've been looking at hundreds of pictures
of cupcakes til my eyes could cross to
get inspired for original cupcakes
decorated with jelly beans.
I d0 have an idea I might want to try and make.
Can't tell you what or how til it is made
and entered :0)
Can't even find anyone that has come
up with this idea yet so that's good!
Now what store still has candy canes left???
Because I'm gonna need some!
Here is a clue:
-----------------------------------------------
2:50pm
Still working on Jonathan's bedroom.
An hour and 35 minutes later I feel
like I am finally making some headway, seeing
a floor and some potential, lol.
Hauled out a bunch of trash and
a huge trash bag (maintenance bag)
full of stuff to drop off in a donate box.
Might take a break here in a few and
head down to Walgreens to look
for some candy canes and jelly beans.
My stress reliever is baking/cooking
or crafts to take my mind off everything else.
So might work on cupcakes today or tomorrow.
-------------------------------------------
3:50pm
I'm tired and I only cleaned one room today!
Thank goodness my honey cleaned up the
kitchen for me because some days I don't
feel as though I can get ahead!
Two steps forward and about 5 back.

We ventured out to Walgreens.
Their Christmas items are 50% off
and they still had a few left.
I found some candy canes.
Not exactly the best deal at $1.50 a box
but hey, I'm stocked with about 84 mini canes, lol.
Then I needed a box of bigger canes
that ran about the same price.
I was hoping to find the larger canes that
were the typical red and white striped
but they didn't have any. All they had
were the multi-flavored ones in different colors.
Not marked down, but I also found small bags
of the Jelly Belly Beans.
So maybe tomorrow I'll try my hand
at making cupcakes with all the goodies I got tonight.
Tonight I'll try to draw up some plans.
7:35pm
Got my designs all drawn out for the cupcakes.
Showed Tony and he says that looks hard to do!
Well, I said, do you think they are giving
$10,000 to someone with a simple idea??
So when people look at me with doubt in
their eyes that makes me want to really
try to make them!!
8:55pm
Jonathan's clean room.
Him on the phone.
He's worse than any teenager
when it comes to friends calling!
