Quiet Day Here

August 12th, 2012 at 08:38 pm

Not too much to report today. It is probably going to be a NSD since I have nowhere to go and nothing to buy. I recorded a bunch of football games and have spent the day watching them.

DD called the shoe store this morning and they are going to mail the other shoe to us. Awesome! We didn't have to make a trip back down to the mall, which is 1 hr 15 min one way!

Noticed something when we went to Olive Garden yesterday. They didn't give us the lunch menus. We had to ask for them. The only thing I could think of is that they give the dinner menus to up the price and hopefully mean a bigger tip for the servers. Any one else experience that lately? We definately ordered from the lunch menu which meant smaller portions but just enough food.

I changed the locks on the renters Friday)(cant remember if I already told you this or not) They left the place a mess. They left a king size bed, a washer and dryer, an exercise equipment, and a deer head. Plus alot of trash on the inside. The handy man is giving me a total for cleaning it up. I will just have him get rid of the trash. My son wants to clean it in exchange for 1/2 the rent for the first month.

That is about all going on here. How was everyone's weekend?

    Very wise of your DD to call the store. The store should mail the shoe!!

    Glad it will be a NSD. You have been doing awesome!

    Will your DS keep the mattress, washer and dryer? Anything in usable condition may be able to be sold for cash on craigslist, or ebay. I suppose it would be good to make sure that is legal in your state.

    Of course I can't imagine the amount of mess but cleaners here get about $60. for an 8 hr. day cleaning & scrubbing apartment move-outs. Working to earn $400. would be slightly more than 6.5 days. I realize he's your son and you can pay far more than the 'going' rate but is it wise to do so?

    That's good that the store is mailing you the other shoe!

    When I go to Olive Garden, I always order the lunch portion whether or not they give me the lunch menu. Smile The dinner sized portions are ridiculous. (Olive Garden is one of my favorite places to eat ... can't remember the last time I ate there though.)
