Another day, another dollar...

Well, hubby left for work this morning, 2weeks til hes home..(sad face), so decided on this fine, sunny day to take the kids to the park...then thought, we may as well turn it into a picnic seeing as how we had all this food in the fridge..even took our own drink so as to save a little more...This morning I took note of the power reading, so I can check to see what sort of usage we have...now just have to remember to read it again tomoro morning.  The kids are enjoying the Wii they got for xmas, its pretty hot out and its nice to have something they enjoy doing inside.  Saw in the.. local rag a great deal on a bedroom suit, so im now debaiting whether to get it or not...let me set the scene for this one...when we came over from New Zealand we got rid of alot of our stuff, including furniture..we brought over our dinning room set, our entertainment unit, our beds and some apliances..we have moved into a four bedroom, and lots of living area house...the echo in here from lack of furniture is borderline funny. I have already purchased a tallboy each and over the weekend got a really nice wooden blanket box to use as a coffee table/storage box..We have the inlaws coming nxt year so will need a spare bed and the bedside tables from the deal will go into our room, then i can stop using a suitcase as a table. Im torn between needs and wants. We picked up a couch for the theatre room for a great price, and i picked up some camping chairs to put in the other living room for now...So thats about it for now...will let ya know about the bedroom suite...
