Friday

I am popping in quick as I am not sure how much time or energy I will have later on today. I have a hundred and one things to do today and being sick has put me behind. I am off for a big grocery shop. It is seriously bare cupboards time around here. We have my Sister In Law's big Halloween party tomorrow night. I will show you some pics afterwards. She changes things up every year. She is a wonder.

It is eighties themed but you will laugh when you see my costume and hubbies. This is the lowest I have spent on a costume yet. $4 to finish it off. 

At last year's party we were Star Trekkies. Hubby's idea. Here is showing how he really felt about me.

Wait till you see how he feels about me this year. I am sensing a disturbing theme. Just kidding. You know he  can't live without me or he would have run away a long time ago.

In regards to yesterday's post, you all make me want to hug you. Thanks for such kind words, I was not trying to elicit such sweet comments but you all are just too kind. Thanks!! I see how I am plucking along may be just how it should be. I will continue to share my money saving strategies with a mix of life thrown in.

It looks to be a whirlwind weekend of cooking, party fun and then up early to work with the two year olds in the nursery at church on Sunday. If I think too hard about it all my head hurts. Okay, off and running.

A Question For You All

I have a favor to ask from you. I have been thinking about the blog and the direction I want to go with it. I love the fun stuff and the visits with the chickens and garden but I would love to know what you really like reading about from me the most. Not as if I am any expert, but I love to write on topics that I find helpful or that I am concerned about. I have noticed that I get large responses on my posts regarding frugality and money saving. Part of me wants to focus more on this for my own good as well. With more detailed topics and regular posts. Is this what folks are wanting to read about? Or are they looking for an escape?

I of course will keep the fun stuff but would love your input on what blog readers are looking for if you care to share. It really fascinates me as I know what I am interested in but your input is so valuable.

Thanks for all the well wishes. After a scalding bath and hot tea, I finally got to bed. I am feeling so much better today. Still coughing but feel my energy back which I really need around here.

Thanks so much for taking time to read and comment. You all are the best!!
