~~~~~ ♥♥♥ ~~~~~ Thrifty Things Lately at Harvest Lane Cottage! ~~~~~ ♥♥♥ ~~~~~ Hey y'all!  So glad you've joined me today. I looked back at March and realized I've not written much at all. I was wound up in too many things. I just didn't sit down to the computer and write. I apologize. You've stayed with me through my bad months of fighting cancer, and now I've gotten lazy on you. I intend to get myself in line and start writing regularly again. Thank you all for being so very patient with me and for praying for me.  Here's how my family has been thrifty lately $2  cheeseburger   on half price burger night at Sonic yum! Kept sorting things and did a little real estate investing by giving a lot away at knit night and at the thrift store.  I obtained several balls of pretty gray yarn from the knit night free table. I bought some soft pajama pants for my Amy for just $1 at the local thrift store's half price s...

~~~~~ ♥♥♥ ~~~~~ Thrifty Things Lately at Harvest Lane Cottage! ~~~~~ ♥♥♥ ~~~~~ Hey Y'all,   It's been a fun week for me. I've spent some time with family and friends, enjoyed worship at church, read, and knit a bit. I got to go on an overnight business trip with my husband. I got in a little extra knitting and napping while he worked. Can't complain about that! I'm easy to take along since I wait patiently. ~smile~  ~ ~~~~ ♥♥♥ ~~~~~ Here's how my family has been thrifty lately. ~ I did not buy yarn at the fiber guild's trunk show, because I had just bought yarn for the Alaska hat the previous week. ~ I did not go into the tiny yarn shop we found outside Kirbyville. I knew I would feel obligated to buy something since it was such a small shop. But next time we go that way maybe I will stop. ~ A friend bought us lunch while Lowell and I were in Branson.  ~ We received a discount on our hotel room. ~ Free shipping on ...
