Rise and Shine is my way of sitting down and having a cup of coffee with you! We talk about the new deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help us save time, money or energy. Published Monday through Friday – as I’m able.
Good morning! I hope your week is going well. How was your day yesterday?
Yesterday we had our septic system inspected and pumped in preparation for the sale of our house – FUN times! The septic company was really awesome – even pointed out that I had a very low tire on my old car, which I hadn’t noticed. Thanks to a nail in my tire it was practically flat. After the septic appointment I took it to my ABSOLUTE favorite car shop in the world, Larsen’s Automotive (Olympia, WA) and they patched the small hole in under 5 minutes. They didn’t even charge me. Gasp. Does that ever happen these days? My car is 12 years old with 105,000 miles on it – and it has had its fair share of maintenance in the last few years – but Larsen’s Automotive has really taken care of my car – for reasonable prices with quick turnaround and super customer service. I’m not compensated or discounted in anyway to share that with you – I just like them that much! {p.s. if you have a similar tire issue (and don’t live in Olympia to hit up Larsen’s) I’m fairly certain most Les Schwab stores offer FREE patching or plugs, call and ask your neighborhood store.}
We keep jumping through the hoops toward selling our house – inspection, appraisal, septic – check, check, check – rounding the corner to our closing date, which I’m praying comes and goes without incident.
If you haven’t checked it out yet, here is a big round-up of Washington Staycation ideas (South Puget Sound edition). There are so many opportunities in this state for fun, frugal, family activities. Leave a comment if I’ve left something out! I hope you like it!

Yes! Les Schwab will happily patch your tire for you! I had two nails at different times this year in my tires. The first time they patched it for free but the second time the nail was in the side of the tire so it had to be replaced. We have four wheel drive and had to replace all four tires at once (we were only a few thousand miles from replacing them anyway) but Les Schwab warranties them in the event of another nail in the side. They’ll rotate your tires for free even 5,000 miles too!
