Foto (Photo) Friday is a show and tell of pics from the past week. It looks like I caught what P had and have not felt well all week. Monday was by far the worst and the rest of the week I have just been recovering. I was checking my camera and phone and only took 3 pics this week. Three pictures is unheard of for me. I always take pictures. It just goes to show how out of it I was. P and S did get to enjoy the super nice weather we had this week. Even though I didn’t feel well I could just as easily sit outside in a chair as I could on the couch.
This week instead of doing a recap of each store I visited for the Valentine clearance separately I am going to do one big quick recap. I did pretty good and got a bunch of good stuff. I didn’t get a door wreath or decoration like I was hoping for but I may find something to make for it next year. There was a 25% cartwheel on clothes so all of the Valentine clothes I found at 90% off I also got another 25% off on them. It truly was a great deal on the clothes.
