I'm settling into a new house in a new town, and one thing that's staying the same is I'm finding money. Not a lot, mind you, but in the past 10 days I've found 60 cents. 

I took a walk yesterday and found 8 cents:  a penny in a church parking lot, another penny by a laundromat, a penny at a gas station. and a nickle under a newspaper vending machine. Ta da!

Found $1.25 Today

This evening I took a walk to the grocery store. On the way there and home, I found $1.25. Here's what and where:

  • 1 penny in a drive through lane
  • 1 nickel in a parking space
