Coupons

OK so I started doing the coupon thing and guess what! I had a bill that was $250.00 and I only paid 110.00. On my next trip I had over 300.00 and only paid 130.00. So I would like to know everyone's great ideas on saving money. Let's help each other do what we can to save! One site I like is www.mysavings.com it allows you to see all the sale ads in your area and then compare prices to get even more from your coupons.

DORA!

Our cat Dora died today! She was hit by a car and my daughter found her this morning. She was inside and hubby let her go out to go the bathroom. I am not sure why she was out by the road because she never goes by the road.She was an outside cat that stayed right by the house. She was a birthday gift for my daughter when we moved back to Michigan. She was five years old. I went and got her from the road. She wasn't breathing and was already dead. I placed her outside in her favorite spot until my hubby can bury her. I am going to make a stone for her out in the backyard so that she will always be remembered.

teenagers

I have to wonder some days if I was as mouthy as my oldest is. Is it because she is now a preteen? I have tried every discipline I know and nothing has worked. So now what?

KIDS

Why is it that every 2 yr old wants to writ on themselves? I oldest did it once with permanent marker. She colored my walls along with her whole body. I did learn that all permanent markers should be put up. Twelve years later.....here I am again...I have a wall writer. Luckily they are washable markers this time. But every time I turn around she is covered in art paint, ink marker or crayon. I put the stuff up....she finds the chair to pull up to my cupboard to get the stuff down. NOBODY told me she would be this creative when she wanted something. Oh well you live and learn. Well and realize that there is a good chance that a 2 year old has out witted you. I think I can live with that....well maybe.

Ok so my reason for starting this Blog!

I am a mother of three and really hate the food my kids consume. I want healthy but it can be expensive. So I thought I would share ideas with others on ways to make things last longer, such as canning your own food, making your own laundry soap, making homemade breads WITHOUT it taking all day and more. So pass this link on to your friends and lets save!!!

Board games

My 2yr old loves to play the games with the big kids.....however that means parts always come up missing. So here I am with a brand new game board and no pieces. Well did you know that the game companies sell the replacement parts? And guess what....they are not expensive so that means I can buy more! YIPPEE!!! I love when things work out my way!

Games

Alright! I admit it I love online games. But one is really starting to make me mad. So I play the games at Winster but every time it make my computer freeze. Not only that, but I try to help others win and I am the bad guy. Geeeessshhh come on! If I offer to help you win don't run off with my jackpots.
