Don’t forget to enter for a chance to win $65!! I will be drawing tonight, and posting tomorrow.

I forgot to take a picture for my 365 yesterday [sigh] I did make it to day #2 which is a big deal in itself.

I pulled my sewing machine out the other night and actually finished a little project. This one was just a practice, so its not perfect. Which come to think of it, nothing I ever sew is perfect! ha! I used some material that my grandmother gave me a while back [that she’s had for who knows how long] and made [or tried to make] one of these dishcloths.

I started clipping coupons again, and rejoined The Grocery Game. I know it costs, but seriously, it still saves us money. I’m also doing the cash only thing. Which makes it a lot easier to say no, especially when the girls are asking for this snack or that snack.  And I have a little hiding place that I keep the money here at the house, and I only pull it out when I am going to the grocery store. I know me and I know I’ll spend it! Then we will have no food!

I make a mess when clipping coupons. They are everywhere. Seriously. I needed a place that would just be used for coupons or school stuff, so I brought the card table upstairs, its now my “desk”. David was kinda, sorta against it, might still be, he just hasn’t said anything lately. But he knows me, and even though I had all intentions of keeping a nice, little, organized spot, it is far from it.  But I know where everything is, and the girls know NOT to mess or move around my mess stuff [this is where one of them will sit while playing for hours on build a bear]

My computer is wore slap out! The screen is coming apart from all the opening and closing it goes through. So, David fixed it right up with a strip of gorilla tape  

All throughout the year, I am SO white, unless I tan, and I only pretty much do that before a vacation. So, I started using a self tanning lotion, tinted cream, whatever its called. I’ve got my fingers crossed that I will not start looking orange in the next couple of days. Cause I’m thinking, the only thing that would look worse than being clay dirt red in the middle of summer, would be to look clay dirt red in the middle of winter.

That pretty much covers what’s going on with me right now. I know, I live a very wild & crazy life. Sewing, coupons & tanning cream.

Oh, I did get a bit of good news yesterday! Melissa, A Familiar Path, hosts a giveaway on her blog through Blogher & Kellogg’s, they notified me yesterday that I’ve won a $100 visa gift card.  Now I just need to decide what to spend it on.
