• We went for a ride today.  I’m not feeling that well but was glad to get out of the house.  We drove a couple of towns up to Juno Beach, FL.  We drove through Palm Beach and just looked at all the extravagance.  We stopped in Juno Beach at a playground and let Lydia run around for a while.  They had five different slides that she took advantage of. 

  Then we went to get a late lunch.  It was just about 4 PM, we didn’t want to go to a chain.  Well, we kind of did, but it was a local chain at least.  The Thirsty Turtle Sea Grille.  I had a great turkey club, and Fred had a burger and Lydia had chicken fingers and fries (finger actually – lol 2 came home as leftovers)

  Then we came home and switched cars so Fred could get an oil change at Pep Boys.  He had a $20 gift card, and they price match – so he had an ad for an $11.99 oil change, and then he got 2 jugs of windshield washer fluid and some car “trees”.  We went to Dunkin Donuts to wait because they said it was going to be about 45 minutes.  Starbucks has spoiled me for all other coffees.  Now I am a very frugal person, but I get free Starbucks gift cards from Swagbucks after I get my 5 allotted Amazon Gift Cards for the month.  I can buy the bags of coffee there, and brew at home – so I rarely pay actual money for coffee.  I got a cup at Dunkin Donuts, and sadly it was just like drinking hot brown water. :/ lol

  We came home and I am drinking a cup of Traditional Medicinals Throat Coat Tea.  Still FAR too full to eat dinner. 

  
  Lydia grabbed the broom so I put her apron on her.  (My mom got it before she was a year old) She likes to help Mommy!  She is actually sitting in her recliner wearing it now.  LOL
