Yes, such is the story of my life lately. I got sick last week and have since been blah. The kids are aggravating. I'm not getting anywhere on the house, homeschooling, anything. I made jarred cakes y-day and that wasn't as satisfying to me as things of that nature usually are. I had a fleeting moment of desire to start composting. I printed stuff, read and read some more. I asked questions on PH. The next day I looked at my jar of so-far-collections and asked myself "What am I doing?" The jar still sits there. I don't feel like cooking. I've been praying, but it's not helping. I want to cry. Just sit down and bawl my eyes out. Oh wait.... I have done this. More than once. Laundry piles are at an all-time high. So's the dust. I'm reading blogs that are usually extremely inspirational to me. I can read certain blogs and the inspiration lasts for days. I'm lucky if they last 10 minutes anymore. Forums have been slow, not much to inspire there either. I'm wrestling with myself, with life and with just everything. I haven't even been doing my newsletter lately. I'm so bummed. I'm hoping it's just the weather and a bit o' the winter blahs. I want to plant. I want to dig. I want maters and flowers. Sorry to unload this all on you guys, but I really needed a good vent. I'm off to see about this laundry and dust now. God bless. I know He is me, I guess I'm just being selfish.
First you start with a LARGE 3-ring binder . I was able to get about a dozen of these for 50-75¢ each at a thrift shoppe, brand new. Mine are from a business complete with logo, but that's ok. 50-75¢ sure beats 8 bucks at Wal-mart. Plus mine DOES have a front pocket, in case I want to make it a bit purtier. Some people prefer a zippered binder. These are GREAT if you can afford the dough for a LARGE one. This one is especially great as it has a handle for carrying. You'll also need some pocket pages . I prefer the 4-per-page pages. The pockets are a little bigger, which is GREAT for those LONG coupons (which stick out, so I fold them in half) and those WIDE coupons, and especially for holding more coupons than their miniature counterparts! Now others have had luck with other pages. They come in 1-pocket (also known as sheet protectors, which we'll be using as well- we'll get to that later), 2 pocket, 4-pocket, 5-pocket, 6-pocket, 8-pocket; 9-pocke t. Anything with more...
