Sunny with gusty winds and highs in the mid 70’s.

I worked the store this morning then came home this afternoon to meet the delivery guys from Lowe’s to install my new washer and dryer. Now I am washing and drying the towel load that did not dry from Sunday due to the dryer failing. Washing was giving me trouble the past couple of years do decided to just go ahead and replace both.

When I left we had not been very busy at the store so not sure how the day will progress for Joyce.

Sunny and breezy today with highs in the upper 70’s.

A busy day at the store both yesterday and today. Mostly out of town folks both days. A couple of small donations to work on both days but we still have tons of stuff in the back to process. We did over $100.00 yesterday and $300.00 today.

Sunny and warm today with highs close to 80 degrees.

I left for Winston around 9 this morning. Hot down the mountain with highs in the low 90’s. I ran a couple of errands then met Nancy and Betsy for lunch at Village Tavern.

After a nice lunch and visit I headed back up the mountain. Not a lot of traffic to and fro but of course Winston was busy as usual.

Another lovely sunny spring day with highs in the low 70’s after morning lows in the 50’s. We need rain but none in site. All of the state is in drought to severe drought status right now.

Two great days at the store. Yesterday and today very busy with a lot of out of town folks. Several good donations as well. Over $100.00 yesterday and $200.00 today.

A sunny but chilly start to the morning with lows in the upper 20’s to low 30’s. Breezy all day the highs did make it into the low 50’s.

A slow day with customers but a busy day taking care of store chores. I helped Joyce change the window, sorted some donations, and priced and shelved books. We did have more customers this afternoon to make the sales at least decent for the day.

Mostly sunny today but chilly and windy with highs in the low 50’s. Colt came today and mowed the lawn for the first time.

When I got back home from the gym my lawn guy was mowing. Though it was not bad some areas were very high so it did need it. After lunch I went to Donna’s to craft.

Springlike weather the last few days with highs in the low to mid 70’s and breezy. A brief late afternoon shower today but ore on the way for tomorrow then we go back to cold weather again.

Great week at the store. Over $100.00 all week and over $200.00 today. Lots of folks in town for spring break and Easter visiting families, etc. Several big donations came in today as well to work on.

Sunny warm and breezy most of the day. We had a brief shower early this afternoon and it looks like it also rained here. Highs in the mid 70’s.

The roof guys showed up at 7:30 this morning. They had most of the roof stripped off by the time I left for the store. They were gone by the time I got home. Hopefully they were finished by the time the rain came through.

We had a slow day at the store this morning but things picked up this afternoon. We did make $100.00.
