Successes:
1. Payday...yippee!
2. We have a new 3,000-gallon water storage tank as of a few minutes ago. The previous tank had a critical fail (leak) develop in its wall. Replacing it was not cheap, but I had been setting money aside for it, knowing that it was inevitable, so it is not a devastating blow nor one that had to be paid on time with interest. Having a water well requires regular maintenance, but happily Carey can manage most of it, and we don't have water bills to pay. I heard recently that water bills from the local water service company can run several hundred dollars a month in our area. I was shocked.
3. I received four lovely letters in the mail recently. The price of a stamp is SO worth the joy it brings!
4. We are having breakfast for supper tonight. The eggs are fresh layed and free from our non-sanctioned neighborhood chicken wrangler. The fig preserves are a real treat that I am looking forward to on fresh hot biscuits. The preserves were a barter from a dear friend. In exchange for my homemade masks, she sent me delicious homemade fig preserves. My favorite!
5. I recently discovered that our library offers Kanopy streaming of movies, documentaries, etc. Nice to have another frugal option for entertainment. These days I am missing movie-theater popcorn however.
