Today was a hot day in southern Tennessee!
When I got in my car after school the thermometer read 121 degrees.
Whew!
I'm ready for some cooler weather.
I worked in 6th grade today, all day, with the best group of students. They were so good for me that I would love to do it all over again tomorrow.
Ebay Sales & Post Office
After school I had to go by the post office and mail two packages. My first two sales on Ebay. I earned a total of $25.19, but spent $12.30 on postage, so my total in the end was $12.89. The $12.30 was the only thing I spent money on today.
Chickens
For a variety of reason, we have made the decision to get rid of our chickens. One of the reasons is because the cost of feed had gone up and I was spending $25.00 every other month or so on feed. Another reason is that they stopped laying eggs over a year ago and have never started again. I can buy a lot of eggs for the $25.00 I was spending on feed every other month.
For those of you that might be worried about them, we gave our chickens to a good family that is enjoying them so much. I loved our chickens and would love to have more again one day, but a different breed for sure. The breed we had prior to these chickens were very good layers and that is what I would like to go with again someday. But like I said this was for a variety of reasons, not all that I've mentioned here. Someday the time will be right to have them again.
Food Today
Breakfast consisted of grilled cheese sandwiches with grapes fixed at home this morning. My daughter could get free breakfast at school, but she chooses not to do that.
They also give free lunch to students which today consisted of nacho chicken fajitas with side salad, watermelon, and grapes. My lunch was peanut butter and crackers. I think she got the better end of the deal. ;)
I was hungry after school and still had an hour to kill before I picked up my daughter at her school. I was tempted to order a sandwich and drink from Sonic, but I didn't. I told myself that I was going to be home before too long and could make something then. So no money spent there today.

Mom made dinner for us tonight...Grilled Hamburgers and Potato Chips. It was good and I'm grateful I didn't have to cook dinner tonight.
How was your day today?
