Street Money Update!

After I ran five miles the other day, all over Park Forest, and my legs were crying, I forgot that I found a penny on the ground!

That’s pretty good huh? Finding the penny while running; not that it’s a penny. People are really holding onto their coins this season. Economy!

Here is the year-count!

See post below. We went to a lot of places today. Found 6¢. Not terrible for the ground. Year total here.

To bed.

I’ll dispense with the usual, long chatter and get to the point.

10¢ on the floor of Hooter’s–(delicious)–Mason almost had his eye poked out and a tray of crab legs and steaming wings dumped on him trying to pick it up, but hey, we work hard for the money…haha

1¢ on the ground at the arcade/mini-golf/driving range/batting cage/go-kart fun center!

We were kind of busy this weekend, having fun and spending too much money.

One day we will break even. Ha. Check here for the year count.

I couldn’t wait until tomorrow! You will all be happy to know I completed my HealthCare Provider CPR class with flying colors and am now suitably renewed to continue helping in case one of you mugs drops in front of me.

I went in feeling just a bit nervous. They always have these classes in the deepest, darkest, farthest, massively corridor-ed area of the hospital basement. But once I was in…everything was fine. This was the best CPR class I EVER took. The instructors were smart, funny, experienced, and genuinely interested in helping us learn the process. I came out feeling confident and ready for action.

I’m sure some of this good cheer was the result of the lucky PENNY I found right before class!

Please compress your way to the following link to see the year total so far. And breathe.

Street Money Update! This one is actually exciting!

For me, anyhow.

It has been WAY too many days now since I found any money at all, but it was good when it was happening.

I found the basics, penny here, penny there. School, the train, in a parking lot…total of 5¢. Not bad.

And then, much to my kids disappointment because I saw it first, a whole DOLLAR!

Yes, that’s right. One green dollar bill. Laying in the grass at the SuperTarget.

So, for this week, we’ll lump it together for the end of June, we found $1.05!!

Please visit HERE for the yearly total. Happy cashing!

The trend continues! Day of school, day of loose change on the ground.

Found another two cents! It’s raining again, but that’s the trade.

Sunshine for Pennies.

Four more pennies have found their way into my bee box.

Hmmm…that sounds….weird.

In our travels yesterday we collectively found 4 cents all around the town. The box I hold the money in has pictures of bees on it.

What were you thinking?

Take a look at the bee bank box and check here for the latest update for 2009!

All that walking around yesterday and we came up with 11¢!

Not complaining…but you can really tell the economy based on how much change people will drop, and then actually pick back up.

Cheap times!

Here’s the update spot.
