Running on empty

This week has been Spring Break for my children and they made the most of it. We didn't take a trip, but that doesn't mean they stayed home. I'm pretty sure I've driven the same mileage as a trip to the coast, but all I have to show for it is an empty tank. And the car is out of gas, too.
However, as I drove through the Peone Prairie to deliver my teenage daughter to a friend's house, I spotted a sale at one of the pretty farmhouses that dot the landscape. As soon as I dropped her off (she forgot to say "Thanks Mom") I drove back by the sale.
I picked up a wonderful old iron folding daybed or cot. It will be perfect for the little garden shed I'm going to have one day. It only cost $10 so that leaves me with enough money to put gas in the car.
