Bandon R & R

Wow, it has been a busy summer!  I have had all I can do to keep up with Paperkissesandinkywishes.com not to mention the three part-time jobs, the house, and the yard. But I am not complaining, just explaining. I am truly blessed and very grateful.
I do have some fun and interesting things to share with you soon, but today I just wanted to pop in, say hi, let you know I am still alive and kicking, and let you know that the disposable razor test is over.  It's true ---- you CAN get a LOT of use out of a disposable razor if you take the time to dry the blade each and every time you use it and then store it in a dry place.  I started this little experiment a year ago this month and while I don't have to shave as often now that I am a bit older, it was still a worthwhile test I believe. This is not only cost-effective in tough economic times, but getting as much mileage as possible out of these things keeps the stuff out of our landfills.  Frugal and green; that's me.
Burger and I have been away for a little R & R ----- we visited a good friend in Oregon and we spent some time on the Oregon coast.  Bandon!  What a gorgeous little seaside town.  It's full of charm with easy access to some beautiful, rugged coastline. We had such fun.  I leave you with a couple of photos.  Well, maybe more than a couple.  Thanks for stopping by.  I will be back soon with another money-saving tip.  Take care! Shawna





                                       This isn't Bandon, it's the new foot bridge on the
                                        North Umpqua River near Susan Creek. Frannie
                                        took me on a little cruise around Roseburg to see
                                        the sights.  We are having a wonderful visit!
