Saturday Night Target Run


We ran out to Target tonight after a long day of catching up on 5 weeks of coupon handling neglect. I was out of town and lost another week when I threw my back out lifting too heavily packed suitcases to try to save $50.00 by not having two cases. Lesson learned. It cost more in the long run, running to the chiropractor, doctor, prescription muscle relaxants, massage therapy and having to hire the cleaning lady to do my work.

Back to my Target post:
