Hey Everyone Well today has been a super busy day for me! I finally got to go out and about to the thrift shops and such wahoo! I got up and got ready and I figured before I got half way ready then my mom would call but it got on to almost 10:00 and I was like o.k. I better call lol- We actually headed out around 10 and went to the Christian Ministries. I found a few random things there - not a ton but I was really excited that I had bought a pair of cherry print around the house pants /capri's back there a while back and I found the shirt that went with it there today so that was pretty random. We went to CVS and did several deals. I was shocked because they had everything we went in there for once and that hardly ever happens. I will be writing a post about couponing in the next few days , so I'll save the details on that for that post. We went to Habitat and OMG they had this one couch in there that they had when we got our couch- we would have likely got, but it was … [Read more...]

Hey Everyone Well, I totally meant to write last week after the new year and such but I got busy in other things- which seems to easily happen to me anymore! I went on a kitchen cleaning spree through all the drawers and cabinets, read books and kept up general house work- always something right? Yesterday,I was browsing facebook as per usual and I saw my best friend from childhood write that her brother died. I am not sure of what happened just quite yet- I had sent a message but I didn't out right ask what happened.. We haven't been close in many years and I haven't quite lost touch with her -I just haven't done the whole real life friend thing in MANY years. We still live in the same town- in all honesty I think she doesn't live 3 minutes from me if that.. My parents/ Myself have ran into her and various family members constantly -anyways she messaged me back that she would love it if I came up to her house (or her parents- I'm not sure where she was exactly) and visit with … [Read more...]

Hey Everyone Well... yesterday was SUPER productive. I managed to finish cleaning up the bottom kitchen cabinets for the most part , then I took a quick sweep through the hall closet as well (where I keep some books, all my DVD's and other assorted randomness) I had made it into the extra bedroom about 4:30 or so and I was like O.K I think I'm DONE with this for the day lol. I figure it would be easier to start back on this end of the house /our room/our bathroom instead of going full fledged into the pit of hell (my closet in there- which is like 999% better than it used to be but by no means complete- I just never seem to get it ALL the way done- however after I traded some stuff to my uncle for his pallet stuff + took a few extra things over to my mom for storage it really shaped back up in there!) Today I pretty well only had the goal to find something to read and get my book challenge started for the year, but I have been watching random tv and straightening a few things and … [Read more...]

Hey Everyone well, I had to do a few things this morning , so even though David just left I thought I'd take a few seconds to write a post before I try to go back to sleep- or give up/stay up and just nap later- sometimes that Is a better option when I know that I'm def. not going anywhere later on.  I am SO hopeful that come this spring when the time changes I might be able to get up DO ALL THE THINGS (whatever that might be ) and then by lunch time BAM TONS OF TIME to do whatever....I LOVE when that works out.. but last year it just wasn't in my cards! Anyways, I do have a few new years goals but mostly for photo a day (which now that i'm back to android the app I use and follow along with prompts with won't work because it is iphone only- so I can still do them I just have to tag and put in all the hashtags manually BLEH lol) and the other goal is to read 365 books. I also am trying to come up with some WORDS for the year. The ones last year sure didn't happen for the most … [Read more...]

Hey Everyone Well.. I had all intents and purposes to write after Christmas last week but things took a bit of a turn. Something kind of --- odd and weird and sort of unexpected happened but - It isn't something that I feel comfortable sharing here - it is something that I Haven't even mentioned to anyone and it isn't really my story to tell so- I'm just going to leave that at that! Christmas day David's dad and brother came over and then we ate chinese- which  at least on the chinese part has became kind of a tradition. Then later on I went out to walgreens and got cranberry juice and Champagne and made cranberry mimosas and those were good. I think I might do those tonight for new years actually! Wed evening I went over to my moms to grab our stuff from where we got pallet stuff from my uncle and what my grandma sent.. I finally went on my big grocery store trip, and with David no less ha ha. I remember at one point I had him BANNED from grocery store shopping with me … [Read more...]

Hey Everyone Well I'm not sure if I will be writing tomorrow or not so I wanted to take a minute and write while I had the chance David is only Working a half day, and actually I expect him in less than an hour. Though, we need to go by my mom and dads and check their mail (we were supposed to on Saturday and forgot shhhhh!) but I don't think that he will remember to go on his own so.. I need to run over to Publix for a few things anyways- just like some lunch stuff (salad, soup.. tv meal.. just really simple and random stuff and not much lol) My thing right now is thankfully my Grandpa got to come home from the Hospital yesterday. He had been in since last Tuesday (My mom keeps telling people Monday but she's messed up because I called my grandma last Monday and she had company, so I was going to call back Tuesday evening and never got the chance) Anyways, of course we were supposed to have our christmas get together yesterday and i'm super bummed. The weather kind of was … [Read more...]
