My TOP 3 at Giant Eagle this week....

#1 StayFree pads $2ea-you may have a $2/1 coupon from this weeks RP insert (comes in the mail for Clevelanders)=FREE

#2 Campbells Cream of Mushroom or Chicken 3/$2-print this coupon (3rd down on left $1/2 cream soups) which will make them $1/3 or .33ea when you buy 3 (GREAT price!), but if you only buy 2 (which you will still get the sale price) they will be .17 ea when you buy 2 (EVEN BETTER PRICE), but see this sale doesn;t come too often so why not buy 3 and stock up!!

#3 Barilla pastas 10/$10-you may have $1/2 whole grain pasta or $1/2 piccollini=$1/2 or .50ea

I'm dealing with sinus/allergy issues and not feeling too hot, this is all I see that Id buy right now...

Hello LIGHTS

I recently got the opportunity to try out some of Sylvania SuperSaver Halogen light bulbs.
THEY ARE BRIGHT!!

Here are some cool facts:

*They are made in the US!!!
*Fully dimmable unlike the new CFLS
*Uses 22-33% less energy than incandescent light bulbs
*No Mercury
*Instant ON (no waiting for CFL's to warm up)


When I was opening the package and it said 43 Watt-I was confused...Id never heard of that before...but it is using less energy than the 65 Watt but using less energy...they were so bright we couldn't use 3 of these in out bathroom fixture without needing sunglasses...seriously.

I am definitely sold on the amount of light these babies put out, but not sure we will see an energy savings unless we switched the whole house to these kind of light bulbs.

We are impressed that they can be dimmed and would love to replace the ones in our basement and try these out, we end up having to unscrew the CFL's down there when watching a movie since there is too much light-since we forgot we couldn't dim CFL's but installed a 6 dimmable can lights=(

Check em out!

Dreary inside and out

It is another dreary, rainy Spring day. But I am most thankful that is isn't a dreary snowy day...=)

We had a terrible thunderstorm last night, all I keep thinking was YEAH it isn't a snow storm, as it kept waking me up (and if there is anyone out there that has dealt with a kid that is terrified of thunderstorms...let's talk!...the 9 year old not the 5 year old, he didn't even know there was a storm).

The dreariness has invaded the inside of my house as well. I think sinus issues are invading my nose again, as I have a very tender throat, ick. I'm tired since I finally have a day of nothing after 4 days of non stop stuff, I'm dragging today. So much to do, and no interest in doing anything. Maybe I deserve a Starbucks run...it's been a LONG time!

Or maybe I can sit in bed with my laptop, make my coupon match up lists, catch up on my bible study video and homework, write on my neglected blog, play some Farmville, and go through my inbox...yep...maybe that is what Ill do!

I'm allowed aren't I??

AHHHHH

Another beautiful Spring day here in Ohio. It's gotta be 60 something, haven't looked though. I just got back form a 30 minute brisk walk, it felt so good. As soon as I'm done here I'm going to go upstairs and work on the Ab Lounger and do some arm weights as well. I feel so accomplished today. Ive got so much done, that happens when you don't run errands everyday! Tomorrow I get to go on a field trip with Ethan and his class...so excited, since I have never been there!

I really feel so good right now I could jump up and down. I recently started taking a supplement my friend is selling and has been taking for some months now. It helps with a lot of different stuff, like anti inflamation, helps cardiovascular health, helps to maintain good blood glucose and cholesterol, and it is a goodjoint supplements as well. Ive been on it a bit over a week and have had much better energy levels, and less joint pain (which comes and goes anyway, so we will see how it helps long term).

Better go finish my workout before my heart rate goes back to normal.
Ta Ta for now!

this or that?

If you are a women you have probably thought about this before...
Diamonds or other than diamonds??

When Josh an I got married I was 19, he was 21 and we had a 4 month old daughter, so needless to say my ring was nothing huge or special, it was actually the diamond out of my aunts old wedding ring...Im thankful, don't get me wrong, it is very pretty, a small pear shaped diamond (my favorite shaped ring)...

Anyway, our 10 year is coming up and some women would definitely pick a new ring over a vacation, but for me it is an easy choice...MEMORIES are worth way more!
