My DD takes viola in school. Today I had to get a new A string put on. It cost me a few dollars. The rental company would have replaced it free but there is the matter of tolls and gas traveling into the next county to get the free string.
I bought my DD a battery operated metronome. It is a new elctronic type and the first thing my DD says is that she wants the old one with the swinging arm. No thank you's just a complaint.
26 dollars for the device. Still have to go get the 9V battery.
Truth be told I would spend my last nickle on my DD. She is frugal with money. She really does not ask for much.
We are having relatives over for the Easter Holiday. I talked the DW into having less snack type stuff before dinner. I figure we'll save money and not ruin peoples appetites. We got a 21 lb Turkey for twelve dollars using a points promo at the local grocery.
I am going to veg out and not think about things financial this weekend. I am just going to sit back and enjpy the holiday. My DD will be playing th piano Sunday for the family. I guess the greatest wealth in the world is family and my daughter makes me feel very wealthy indeed.
Happy Holidays to everyone and God Bless!
