Best Laid Plans

September has been really busy. I have increased the number of shorts I am making to catch up from summer. Finally, I caught up and am on schedule to complete on January 18. Then, Friday I got a letter in the mail showing that I have Jury Duty in October. Well, I have done jury duty before and realize that I might not have to go in too often, but just in case, I went around to Kohl's, Target, and Wal-Mart and purchased all their shorts that were $1-$2. As I was checking out in Kohl's they told me that I had saved $1631.01, all the items I purchased were at least 80% off. Wal-Mart had several items for $1 each and Target's shorts ran about $1.50. In total, I purchased 445 pairs of shorts. If you have children that wear small sizes this is a great time to buy for next summer, however, don't go to Kohl's, Wal-Mart or Target in Jonesboro because they have been bought out. I will be counting these toward my total, but I will also continue to sew. This project is a two part project, that I will provide 5000 pairs of shorts for the children of Haiti, and that I will work till January 18. So, I will continue to sew and if I have more than 5000, then that's great with me. Either way I am prepared.
