Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 127)

Holy cow it's August. COVID time is seriously weird, all. I hope you're staying healthy - as much as some people might want to talk about how we are in the "postpandemic" phase of life, I know far too many people actively sick with COIVD right now or still struggling with lingering side effects. We've…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 125)

As of this morning, I've biked over 100 miles on my new e-bike. Honestly, I wish I could replace all of my car trips with my bike at this point, but alas, that hasn't been feasible. Me being me, I of course have a new excel spreadsheet tracking these miles. Shall I celebrate when I…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 124)

Happy Friday, all. Everything I've been writing lately has been extremely angry and depressing, and while I absolutely feel those things, I'm going to attempt to be a bit more positive today. We'll see how long that lasts, but I do want to remind myself - and all of you - that not all is…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 118)

Around here, “June Gloom” is a phrase we’re all used to - wet and gray weather through the 4th of July when summer officially starts in the Pacific Northwest. Usually, though, June Gloom feels acute because we’ve had some nice days in April and May (along with plenty of rain). This year, however, we basically…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 111)

It's been a week now since we returned from Italy, and the grief that gripped me has lessened a bit. As my husband noted, I've never been so heartbroken to return home from a trip before. It was our first big trip (first plane flight) since Covid began, the first time to see our dear…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 107)

Today is Regina’s birthday! Happy happy birthday to one of my very favorite people on the planet. We have maybe only met each other in person four times, but that doesn't matter. Something I've learned over my five years of blogging is that it doesn't take in person time to grow some really wonderful friendships.…

Friday’s Frugal Five (COVID-19 Week 106)

You might have noticed (or maybe not), but I skipped posting last week. With everything going on with Russia's invasion of Ukraine, my bandwidth was completely zapped and blogging just wasn't happening. I do still want to keep this "pandemic" (and now war) public journal going, which is what TLRE mostly is at this point.…

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 85)

We are now 16 days to Halloween. I may not always know what day it is at any given time, but since the kiddo is now updating me daily, I do know how many days are left until Halloween. After Halloween, I expect to have a similar update for Thanksgiving and Christmas (and then his…
