When will Spring come?

I have been excited thinking of ways to save money. One being having a small vegetable garden like we used to. The soil out here is horrible so our only option would be to have a raised bed. I have been looking on the internet looking for ideas. There is nothing better than fresh tomatoes and lettuce and cucumbers. Would like to buy a small freezer also to start freezing produce from local farmers markets. I saw another post on the internet that Kroger's has a magazine that they mail to certain customers that has many coupons in it. It's called My Magazine. People just receive it in the mail but didn't know why. A number was posted of the headquarters in Cincinnati so I called to inquire about how to receive it. The person on the phone told me that they only send it to loyal Kroger Plus customers that spend $100's of dollars at their store. He took my address and my Kroger Plus card number and said if I was eligible they would send it to me. So I guess you have to spend $100's of dollars to receive a 20 cent coupon on pizza rolls. Whatever.

My computer class for Quickbooks has been going well. There are seven of us in the class. We all have about the same computer experience which isn't much. I find myself typing ahead because a couple of people are just not catching on. The advanced class starts one week after this one ends and so far I am the only one scheduled for it. I have really been enjoying going to class and hope that there are more classes for computer that I can sign up for. I do want to know more. I am interested in purchasing a small digital camera that I can learn to post pictures and movies of things that I enjoy.

I am looking forward to next week when all three girls will be home from college. It's great that their springbreak happens to fall at the same time. We don't have too much planned yet but it's just great to be all together.
