Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 99)

Next week marks week 100 since I began to track these Covid weeks. One hundred. While many of you may be a few weeks behind me since we were the ground zero outbreak for the United States here in Kirkland Washington, your week one hundred is close at hand. Regardless of how much we want…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 98)

It was mid fifties and sunny yesterday (Thursday), which was absolutely lovely. After how cold and snowy the year began, it felt like spring, and we were able to spend much of the day outside. At the same time, things feel pretty dang heavy. It appears that our area has peaked for Omicron, with the…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 97)

Do do do it’s 2022. Set to whatever music you like. Welcome to year three of the 2020s, folks! Three more weeks, and I’ve been tracking these Covid Fridays for 100 weeks. Hard to believe. Feels like forever and no time at all since our pre-covid days. Hope you are all staying safe and pandemic…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 94)

Happy birthday week to me! I “leveled up” to age 34 on Monday and had a fabulous day. I know not everyone loves getting older, but I adore my birthday and the privilege and luck of getting to see another year on this earth. Though I have to say, it’s hard to believe it was…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 93)

T minus twelve days until the days start getting longer again. Not that I’m counting or anything… Okay, fine. Totally counting. It is so dang dark this time of year and I’m over it. But my birthday is on Monday and I’m taking the day off of work to be selfish with the day just…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 92)

Monday we took the kiddo in for his second Covid shot. Due to staffing shortages, a lot of appointments locally have been cancelled, so I felt especially thankful that he kept his appointment. T-10 days until my birthday and two weeks after his second shot. Fully vaccinated on my birthday. With the Omicron news flying…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 90)

We took some time off for our anniversary and spent three nights in a canvas wall tent in the woods on an off grid farm. We're now debating the canvas wall tent (with wood fired stove) as an alternative to a travel trailer, so we specifically stayed in one with that in mind. Even better,…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 88)

The kiddo has a vaccine appointment!! T-4 days (Tuesday). Frustratingly, Washington has had a pretty terrible rollout for the kids’ vaccines and the supply is really low for now. While some other states started giving out shots the day of approval, only a smattering were given out in Washington a day later, and the systems…

Friday’s Frugal Five (Lake Chelan Edition)

We spent last weekend in Lake Chelan, and it was absolutely lovely and so needed. We left midday on Friday and didn't return until just before dinnertime on Sunday, so while it was just a weekend getaway, it felt a bit longer. We hadn't gone anywhere since the short trip to the Oregon Coast visit…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 86)

For the first time in ages, the kiddo was sick this past week. What started as a sinus drip turned into a cough, and though we’ve been pretty reasonably careful, we decided to give him a Covid test just in case. Waiting for the result was more agonizing than I expected. He wasn’t that sick…
