Sunny and warm today with highs in the mid 60’s and breezy.

Frances and Al left for home around 9 am this morning. After they left I fixed breakfast and my lunch and headed off to work at the store. We had a steady day with good sales making almost $200.00. Had a couple of small donations come in as well.

Partly sunny and mild today with highs in the mid 40’s and a little breezy.

I went to the gym this morning stopping at the grocery store for a few things on the way home. I usually go on Tuesday but decided the store would be mobbed tomorrow with last minute Christmas food shopping.

After lunch I went to Donna’s. Finally it was warm enough to craft in the she shed. Worked on a couple of winter things to use after I take down the Christmas stuff.

Partly sunny and mild with temperatures in the low 50’s but breezy.

A good day at the store with off and on waves of customers. Although we did not clear $100,00 we still had a good day. In between customers we worked on the stocking and organizing shelves. I had a nice donation of children’s books to work on also.

Single digits last night. Today is sunny and warming up into the low 30’s and the winds have calmed down.

I went to the gym and made a drugstore run then home. It is too cold to craft in the she shed so it will be an afternoon at home doing stuff around the house.

Sunny and warm today with highs in the mid 50’s. A break from the last few days of cold and snow. Tomorrow is another story. We will be down into the single digits.

Finally, a good day at the store after a very slow week. Lots of customers and we did make over $100.00,

Temperatures actually warmed up over night by morning we were in the low 40’s. We had some sunshine this afternoon to melt off some of the snow but clouds have rolled back in. Tonight is to go back down into the upper 20’s with rain/snow showers and winds in the 35 mph range.

We were not very busy with customers but Joyce and I worked on stocking shelves and organzing shelves. We did have a few sales and and one nice donation to work on.
