I was in Colorado last week too. Went from Colorado Springs to Denver to Vail. Saw a show at Red Rocks. It was a great trip.

What a crazy month it’s been! My Christmas lists got bigger...using DNA , I found my biological parents! My bio mom has passed away but I have 2 half-sisters from her and my biological father is still alive. He didn’t know I even existed so we have been getting to know each other. I have 1 half-sister from him. So long story short...I started 2018 as an orphaned only child and now I have a father again along with 3 sisters, a step mom, 2 nieces, a nephew and aunts, uncles and cousins!

Nabbed a great deal on a Xerox All In One laser printer this week. Marked down to $69.99. I’m hoping it connects to the cable router Mediacom forces me to use to have TiVo. My current HP won’t. Sent from my iPad using GottaDEAL

DD finished her master’s, DS1 started his summer job today in Mackinaw and DS2 got to stay on at his student job in the Soo until the budget runs out...its my 1st summer without any kids! Unfortunately, that means I have to travel to them if I want to see them. Boo. Sent from my iPad using GottaDEAL

My Elder-Beerman is on the last week of being open. Got a few great bargains yesterday, some stuff was 95% off, but mostly it wasn’t worth it because of their over inflated “regular” prices. Sent from my iPad using GottaDEAL
