Froelich's Frolics

Tonight after work I made a stop at Target, since it is on the way home. Our neighborhood is across the street from Target...gotta love it. Anyway, when I walked into the store, I saw their display of sale items. They had spaghetti and spaghetti sauce on sale for 77 cents each. We eat a lot of spaghetti...Carl loves it, and it is easy to make. I bought 2 boxes and 2 jars of sauce, but I may go back and buy a couple more of each, since it is so cheap. I also found these two bags on the clearance rack. I have made a resolution of sorts to not buy anything non-essential unless it is on sale. I am trying to save money, and just be a better steward of my resources. Well, these were on the clearance rack for $6.74 each, originally $24.99 and $26.99.

Wednesday marked 7 months of marriage for us. We are still having a great time being married. We enjoy each other so much! We were talking this week about what we want to do for our 1st anniversary. We want to go spend a couple of days in Chicago. If anyone has any suggestions on what to visit in Chicago, leave a comment. Or if you know of any way to save money while we are there.

It has been 2 years ago today since my Dad passed away. It still hurts a lot. There is not a day that goes by that I do not think about him. Our world has changed so much. I miss Dad so much. It is getting a little easier to talk about him without wanting to cry. There are times when I think to myself, "Oh, I can't wait to tell Dad about this." Then, I remember that he isn't here to tell. There are days when I can almost hear his voice, or hear him clear his throat. I catch myself turning around and looking for him. We miss him so much and are longing for the day when we will be reunited forever.
