Back

The kids are back in school. Oh boy what a relief. I do love them but we all need a break from the sometimes. The holidays are just too stressful now. People just spend too much then wonder why they are in debt.

hello

2011-01-26T16:13:00.000-05:00

I just wanted to tell everyone hi and hope that everyone is having a great New Year. We are doing great this year we had a wonderful Christmas.

Summer

2010-07-07T23:45:00.000-04:00

Boy summer has kept me busy. The kids are out and the summer is full of stuff to do with them. We are just chilling around the house most days. Heat index is suppose to be 105 tomorrow. We will not be going out much tomorrow except in the morning. Went to storytime today at least that was the plan but Aiden did not want to flow with the plan so we picked out some books and played in the children's area.

Wal-mart

2010-02-24T21:17:00.000-05:00

Usually I have a pretty decent time shopping there, but not today. I went to checkout and the cashier was so rude. She did not want to price match some of my items. What really pissed me off was that she acted like she did not want to take my coupons for my items. She starts to tell me she can't take them because it say one per purchase and I had more that one item. I tried to explain it to her but she said it was only one per transaction. I told her to cancel the entire order and I would go to Customer service. Went there and the CSM told me she could not take the coupon period I was like why because it came out of the newspaper. I had to wait 10 minutes before she came back and told me it was okay to use the coupons. It just made me so made because it wasted time that was suppose to be spent shopping in another store. I called corporate when I got home and discussed my compliant.

Weight

2010-02-03T13:58:00.000-05:00

Oh yeah I have lost 13 pounds so far. I am so happy about this. I have 22 more pounds to go. I would like to get down to 150 maybe before next year. I know that it is a journey that I will be on for a while. I just need to keep the goal in mind. I have cut back on the junk food that I eat. I love to drink soda because this is my downfall. Soda is so hard for me to get rid of. I try to drink only one a day which really means one a night because that is when I need something to drink, since Aiden is not sleeping through the night. Hopefully he will be doing this before Nicholas. he was almost 2 before he slept through the night.

Teeth Drama

2010-01-19T15:59:00.000-05:00

Why is it that the same time that Aiden is cutting 4 molars and yes I did say 4, that my tooth has to start hurting. Man I am so upset about that. I am in pain, he does not want to sleep at night due to the pain. I wish I could take some meds without conking out. The only thing I can take is some children chewables. The Tylenol is not doing anything for him. Going to have to give in and get me some Anbesol. Man I do not want to go to the dentist b/c they are going to want to do the crown, which is another 900 for a bad filling that they messed up. I am trying to wait for when it is warmer, the cold air now would have me crying like a baby for those 2 weeks. Oh well off to the store to get some Anbesol but first I am going here to print a $1 off coupon for the Anbesol.

Weight Loss Journey

2010-01-18T21:18:00.000-05:00

I am trying to loss the baby weight from my last son. I gained more weight after I had him because I was breastfeeding. The weight just kept coming and coming. It was creeping up on me. One day I looked down at the scale and it read 185. OMG that was more than when I was pregnant with Aiden. I know that I need to lose weight because high blood pressure, diabetes and heart problems run in the family. So far I have been doing some simple exercise. I do Leslie Sansone's Walk Away The Pounds. It is is real nice and easy for a beginner and it works up a nice sweat. Doing this video and limiting my sweets I have lost 11 pounds so far. My goal weight is 150 and then more but for right now, 150 is what I am striving for. I know that the weight does not magically slip off but at times it is hard to find time to exercise with an active 1 year that does not like to take naps anymore. I will just keep chugging along.

Bricks coupons

2010-01-14T17:25:00.002-05:00

Hey I decided that I was getting tired of looking for coupons on different sites so I searched bricks coupons and what do you know up popped the bricks coupon site with some of the coupons that they are currently offering. Do you know that I had a duh moment like why in the world didn't I think of this earlier. I feel kinda of silly for not doing this earlier. But hey since I have already done it I thought I would provide you with the link to the site as well. Bricks list of coupons currently offered. I hope you enjoy these.

propane hookup

2010-01-09T11:48:00.003-05:00

Man yesterday was long day. We tried to help my mom get more gas for the house. We had to go pick up the tank take I to the dealer to get it filled then try to hook it up once we get home. We thought we didn't need a part and come to find out we didn't. We made 2 blank trips to the part store and come to find out everything we needed was already to the house. We got the line replaced but no gas to come through. Well we found out this morning that a gas professional needs to come to check the line because the stove has an electrical start. Good thing we did not keep trying or the whole thing could have blown up. glad she has electric heaters to keep warm because it is cold in SE GA right now. Kids enjoyed the time over there chasing the cats and playing with the dogs so the time was not wasted.

Dreams

2010-01-07T22:28:00.003-05:00

Dreaming for another day
Wishing that you could stay
Dreaming that you were here
but I now you are always near.
Dreaming of your love
Knowing that you are watching from above.
Dreaming of your hugs.
Dreaming of you.
Dreaming of the one I miss so.
Dreaming of you, Grandma

Boy do I miss my grandmother. Just a poem I wrote for her.

Just starting out

2010-01-07T21:18:00.000-05:00

Well I am not sure where to start so I guess I should start by telling you about myself. I am the proud mom of 4 boys, ages 16,14, 5 and 1, and wife to Zeke for 10 years. I am a SAHM. I love watching my boys grow. I am relearning how to use coupons. Trying to save money in the new year.
