A Day With No Found Money Then Found 7 Cents

Well, today I found 7 cents, but yesterday I found nothing.  So, with that unlucky day, I broke my daily found money streak. It was bound to happen, I guess. I was happy to find some coins today though.

I went to the grocery store and found a nickel in the parking lot on the way in (and it's a nice old one, from 1960). Then I found a penny on the floor of the store and another penny in the rocks as I was leaving the store.

Update:  I found another penny, so 8 cents today!

Found 7 Pennies Today on a Walk

This morning I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the door and the air was actually sort of cool! It's been so hot lately, usually over 100°F most days for the high. But this morning it was in the low 80s! 

I took a walk!

On the way to the grocery store for a few things I forgot yesterday, I found two pennies in the street in two different places. Then I found two pennies in the parking lot, then three pennies on the floor of the grocery store. 

I'm glad I took a walk because now it's back up above 100. Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

Have you found any money recently?

UPDATE:  I just took another short walk and found 2 more pennies! That makes 9 cents found today.

Took a Hot Walk and Found 7 Cents

This morning I took a walk, yes, it was hot but it felt good to move, and found a penny in a parking space, then I found a nickel and a penny at Fry's grocery store.

I posed the coins next to a driftwood and shell wind chime I made. I still need to tidy it up a bit but you get the idea. Love those shells!

Yesterday I toured the Rosson House in Phoenix. Isn't it a beauty? I wrote about it at Bubblews (click the link above). 

I found this 1895 Victorian house to be so interesting. After touring the house, we were treated to a Victorian underwear display. Fascinating!

Found 7 Cents at Fresh and Easy

Today I drove over to see my grandkids. On the way I stopped at Fresh and Easy to check out the sale section and when I was checking out, spotted 2 pennies on the floor and a nickel in the change tray. Yippee!

I posed my find on a page from my Metropolitan Women Address Book; The Metropolitan Museum of Art. This page is captioned:

Woman with a Parrot
Edouard Manet, French, 1832 - 1883
Oil on Canvas (blah blah blah)

I've had this address book at least 10 years but only recently started using it since my little one I keep in my purse is literally falling apart.

Do you still use a "real" address book or is everything digital now?

Found Seven Cents

Today I was feeling creaky. Some days I get out of bed and am stiff and sore, which is one of the negatives of getting old, but it beats the alternative. But I usually loosen up. Today I wasn't loosening up, so I decided to put on my tennis shoes and take a walk.

Before I even left the condo complex, I found the two pennies in the photo that are shiny. Then I found the other five filthy dirty pennies while walking around the hood. They are so worn down and dirty that I can't read the dates on them.
