Morning…..Day #1 of Vacation…..I didn’t sleep in too late as I don’t want to get off schedule and stuff.  I was up around 7:30 so that is sleeping in!   Today is errand day…so we will run and get the things we need for the next week or so.  I have my menu made for the next two weeks, so groceries should last two weeks.   Since I need so little groceries, I dont’ think we will be goign to Aldi today.   We will jsut hit Cub and Sam’s I guess.   I sure hope I can keep to the list!  I can if I go before hubby gets up!  LOL!!  He is terrible at the store. 

Other than that I have no idea what we will do….I think I am treating hubby out for lunch and stopping at Blockbuster for movies.  That will probably be our day.
