The much requested COUPON BINDER! A how-to pictorial

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...

October is......

Please be sure to get your boobies checked!

Here I am!!!

Been bizzee! I have recently left a message board that I used to frequent numerous times a day. It is an indefinite LOA. I may or may not go back, but if I decide against it, I will BE SURE to let the board manager know. I have found some VERY disturbing information and because of it, I feel violated. On top of that, there have been rumours running amok, feelings hurt, cattiness (in a bunch of "CHRISTIAN" women no less) and only one side to stories being told. I rose above that years ago. It's called growing up. Sad to say a bunch of adult-sized women cannot fathom growing up. Other than that, I have started couponing again. Boy have I missed the rush of that! I started buying the double newspaper again, this coming Sunday will be my 3rd. I also get a few coupons in a FREE Thursady paper that ends up at the end of my driveway every week! So I'm runnin at a rate of at least 3 coupons generally. I also get my Mom-in-law's and I need to ask my Mum if she'll start...

Our New Baby!!!

THE WDW CHALLENGE

I started my own personal change jar challenge and am aiming for CHRISTmas 2 008 or shortly thereafter. Keenan will be 5, old enough to understand it and hopefully to remember it. Robert & I have never been. As of the 7 th (when I decided this and started to collect) I have $46.05. I plan on all loose silver, spare bills here and there and whatever else I get to go in it. I w ill not put pennies in it, but rather roll the m and add the silver or bills. Cross fingers for me guys! I want to have 2-3 grand for it !!! I sent away for the pla nner package and we will stay off resort. Prolly 20 mins or so away to help with the cost. Will visit a Disney store to stock up on goodies (heard about this from shopper's at R's old work- they bought outlet goodies and each day presented them to the kids!!!). We also plan on keeping eating at a WDW place at a minimum. I'm planning a 7 day/6 night trip. We haven't told the boys yet. We're still debating on this one...

Mmmm Mmmm Good!

Talk about cheek-kissin' good! Yes, I LOVE my hubby!!! *smooch*

You do strange things....

The older you get. Or at least I do. Sad thing is, I am not old!!! LOL... Here I am barely pushing 30 & I find myself making "molasses tea" to get my iron in. I am taking cranberry on a regular basis after my last UTI scare and I am drinking metamucil tonics. That last one REALLY scares me in addition to everything else. I have finally started taking my multi-vit on a daily basis. I have been in bed (at least the first time, sometimes my semi-insomnia gets the better of me) by 10, sometimes 10:30, sometimes as early as 9 the past few weeks. I say crotchety things and it seems everyone and everything just ticks me off. I GO SLOWER than the speed limit. I find myself doing things that are, well, um, OLD .

Hallo dahlings!!!

I'm here, yeehaw! LOL.... Last week, I spent most of my time sick as a DOG!!! I had a UTI & something that someone thought was food poisoning to boot. Not sure if it was food poisoning, but yuck I felt! Today homeschool was FABULOUS!!! We watched a video from Bill Nye the Science Guy on fossils & on the Earth's crust. First time we've watched a video by him. Hubba-bubba says he thinks he is great, or at least the show was. Apparently he's seen it before. More on homeschooling on our homeschooling blog (shameless plug!). Lots more to say, but I must be jetting for now! Love in CHRIST to all!!!

Just a note to let you guys know that I'm.....
