Help! My foot is morphing!

Last night I was sitting here working away when I looked down and saw that my big toe had an edge around it. Kind of like when you fry an egg and have that crispy fringe around it. It looked like that! Like my toe had started melting and then hardened up again but left that residue puddle around it. Got the picture? I know.... hard to describe.

Being late on a lazy Sunday I just looked at it every once in awhile and thought hmmmm.... I'm so mellow these days! (HA! But the rest of me is morphing so why not my toe?) It finally occured to me that something was probably stuck to it. Which reminded me of a story Sis Chris once told.

She was looking outside at her deck and was watching the squirrels snacking. She saw one with a lump on its forehead. She was feeling sorry for the poor deformed squirrel. Until she realized that it had a Lucky Charm stuck on its head!!! I still can picture that!

So boring ending to my story. As I got ready for bed I decided maybe I should check and see what it was. It was that annoying tab that is sometimes left in plastic bags from the store. Perfectly positioned and of about the same color to leave a melted ring around my toe! :-D

Take care everyone!

An 80s Flashback - what a blast!

Another trip to Indy with my bestest thriftin' buddy! We HAD to go! We had coupons for 10% off everything in the store at Joann's and Half Price Books was having their holiday weekend 20% off storewide sale! I don't hardly ever miss one of those. Heck, it's my favorite store with even cheaper prices!!!

How many of you have kids who were born in the 80s? How many of you watchED A-Team every week? For most of the 6 years they were on.... Okay then! Don't you love it when a plan comes together? :-)

I was at the 2nd of 3 HPBs and wandered over to the DVD section. I had been halfway looking for the A-Team sets since I saw the movie and it all came back. I looked over at the tv section and what did I see? A-Team season 1!!! I kind of swooped in and grabbed it. (That is one TIGHT section there!) I was so excited!

So today after I got some stuff done... I sat down to watch episode one. OH MY! That ensemble was put together so well. Murdock and BA - what a hoot! Hannibal is so suave and Face - well, Face is Face. I never have enjoyed seeing things blown up and flipped and shot at as much as I did - and do - watching that show. It's such an escape!

Tomorrow is the bonus day of the holiday. Might just have to be more A-Team watching. ;-) The heck with work around the house! I need some A-Team therapy!

Here's your bargain tip for the day. If you're around a Half Price Books, get on their mailing list so you get annoucements of sales. They have a 20% off sale around many holiday weekends. They usually have a "Buy $25 in gift cards, get a $5 coupon" deal around gift giving holidays like Mother's and Father's Day and Christmas. You can truly buy some presents for others and get the FREE present for yourself to use later! What a deal!!!

Happy holiday everybody!
