Good morning!

Hey there!

What an AWESOME vacation! It was sooooo nice to be able to spend a week with my family. Sooooooo many stories to tell. I have been checking my e-mail for the past hour and a half. Lots of e-mails. I already have a TON of work to do! Ugh. I am thankful I have it, but REALLY? It is soooo hard to get back to work after a nice vacation. My fingers won't move, I am a bit tired (I couldn't sleep last night), and I'm a bit sluggish to wake-up this morning. ☺It looks like I took OVER 300 pictures! WOW!!!

Did I miss any good deals? I feel like I'm a bit out of the loop. ☺ Okay, so where I went is a very small place in Wyoming. The town has 5,000 or so people in it. So, it's pretty small. They have two "grocery" stores. No big chain stores. These grocery stores are local and man do they know they have no competition! I was a bit floored when I picked up a box of cereal (JUST to see the price) and saw that it cost $5.14!!! What?! Are you kidding me?! $5.14??!!! A box of 2-Go Crystal Light.....$4.49!!!! Luckily, we had brought most of our groceries with us. I had taken a couple boxes of dry cereal....so no cereal needed by us, but WOW!!! I couldn't believe it. They did, however, have a Family Dollar. So, I went in an checked it out. I was really excited because we don't have one here. Well, I quickly learned that I wasn't missing too much, but let me tell you.....if I lived there nowadays, I sure would be a Family Dollar shopper. Seriously, most of the people drive to a little bigger town about 20 miles or so away to buy their groceries at Walmart. I don't blame them one bit!

Anyway, we were very happy to get some spend time with my grandpa and two of my uncles. It was very fun, but sad too. My grandpa has always been a very strong, hard-working, and independent man and now to see him where he has to depend on others to help him get around and get his meals fixed and whatnot, was a shocker to me. I know he is older now and this comes with his age and whatnot, it was just a shocker to actually see. Many many kudos to my uncles for taking care of him though!!!!

You know, it has been YEARRRS since I have seen a mosquito or have been blood-sucked by one. Well, I found out that I am "sweet" by going back to my birth place. I came home with 11 miserable, red, itchy mosquito bites. I felt like a dog. You know, when they just can't quite get that itch. Oh, that was me. I was just scratchin' and a scratchin' away. I had totally forgot about this, but back in the day, when I was a kid, "they" used to come through town in a truck with a sprayer on the back and spray for mosquitoes. Well, they still do that there. Those little pesky buggers are awful there. You don't dare sit outside and talk or you run the risk of smacking yourself all over. I learned that very quick. It's kinda funny, but irritating at the same time. ☺ Oooooh,they are awful. Now, the kiddos didn't get bit, but us "adults" sure did.

Anyway, we had a nice road trip. It seriously was a GREAT bonding time with my husband, my kiddos, and my parents. It really was so nice to get away and be with my family. It was so nice to have all that way JUST to talk with my husband in the car. It was fun with the kiddos too, but they were busy watching DVDs, listening to music, singing, or whatever fancied their little hearts, while my husband and I sat in the front seat JUST talking. What a GREAT time! We seriously enjoyed listening to the two little ones in the backseat have conversation. At one point, I think it was going through Yellowstone, we hear from the backseat (from Faith)......."Daddy....Blakey just made me drink water he spit in." Okay, I'm sorry, but that was REALLY funny.☺ We could hear him say....."you wanna drink of my water?" She drinks.....he says...."I just spit in it." "TJ you wanna drink of my water? Daddy you want a drink of my water?" She's in the backseat telling everyone not to take a drink 'cause he just spit in it. Oh, those two. I tell ya' they just crack me up.☺ No, he didn't really spit in the water, he was just "tricking" us.

Okay, well I best get to work.........

I will chat with you a little later and share some pictures too. ☺

Hey all.....

Hey everyone. So, I have been dropping little hints here and there this past month that I have been working super duper extra hard so my family and I can go on vacation. Well, the time is here. I am sooo excited, although I am SUPER tired. I have been getting up at 2 (if I sleep in then 3) in the morning to work and I have not had a day off in 21 days! Yah, I'm a bit pooped. I'm thinking I REALLY earned this vacation! ☺ Anyway, when I finish up this post I am finally going to jump in the shower today and get myself cleaned up to to the store and spend some Up Rewards that are going to be expiring tomorrow on a few things for the road. We have a long ride ahead of us as we are going to my home state of Wyoming. Anyway, then I'm off for the week. I'm am fully taking this week off. I really need this time with my family as they have been so neglected by me this past month, as I have been working so much. Thank goodness for my husband, my older son, and my in-laws (and my two littlest people). They have all been a GREAT help. We knew that this was going to happen so we were prepared, but I'm not sure my body was.

Anyway, I am soooo stoked about this trip as we are taking it with my momma, my dad, and my husband and kids. It's gonna be a caravan-type thing. We've got walkie talkies and all kinds of fun stuff. Anyway, we are headed out to go see my grandpa. He is getting up there in age and I want my kids to spend some good quality time with him. You  know? Make some memories? My grandpa is 94 and a BIG BIG love of my life! Anyway, we are going to see him for a few days and then we will come back home through Yellowstone! It's going to be so fun, hot (90º), and stinky (sulfur smell in Yellowstone).

Anyway I hope you all have a great week and I can't wait to come back and share some AWESOME stories with you all!

Rambling.....

Okay, so I just am amazed. I was just checking out myhabit.com this morning. Don't know why I even bother, 'cause every time I try to go get a deal I'm too slow and what I want is out. :( It's a challenge, I guess, and I kinda like challenges. :) I laugh every time. One of these days I will score a deal!!! ☺

Anyway, I never ever look at the women's stuff as it is WAAAAAYYYYY OVER BUDGET for me! Yep, as you all know I'm cheap frugal. Right? Well, I just thought I would check out the women's stuff today just for some entertainment. I must have bad taste because this stuff is expensive and......well....to put it nicely....not something that I would find myself wearing (not to mention that none of it would probably fit my "curvy" physique, ☺if you get my drift).

Anyway, I ran across something that I wanted to share with you. Just look at this, would ya?!

THAT IS ON SALE FOR $1,149. IT WAS $3.599!!!!!! WHAT??!!!! SERIOUSLY, IT'S SOLD OUT!!!! Okay, it is not bad lookin', but REALLY $1,149?!!! ANNNNNND.........SOMEBODY (IES) BOUGHT AND PAID FOR IT AT $1,149!!!!

The things that I could do for $1,149!

Maybe that just makes me outright CHEAP! I dunno, but $1,000! Wow!

Anyway, just thought I would share with you what I saw this morning.

Thanks for listening/reading! ☺

Lots of work

Ugh, I still have a TON of work to do. I am trying to get caught up as I am a bit behind and trying to make my monthly budget by the end of this week. Ugh..........is all I have to say. I have worked 14 days straight with no day off. It's crazy. I put in full days this past weekend. I have been up since 2:30 this morning (yah, I have had to little cat naps so far). I am a bit tired, but I keep thinking about being able to go on vacation starting this weekend. It will be soooooo nice and we are very much looking forward to it! ☺This week is going to be a LONNNNNNG week for me. I need to get out and do some doubler shopping this evening (can't have those go to waste), I have got to try to get up to Greenbluff and get some Cherries (FYI...they are $1.50 a pound this week at Fred Meyer, which is an AWESOME price), get packed, and then buy little things that we may need for the road. I am going into this with the right mind that I am going to eat "right." I have to remember that when I don't well then I'm a bit tired and uh, depending on what I eat, well.......need to be next to a toilet (can't have that when you're on the road). I bought some stuff yesterday at WW for the road "just in case," but plan on taking plenty of fruits and raw veggies. On top of all of that, I have to finish up my work.☺ Needless to say, I will be getting up at 2:30 tomorrow morning too, if not 2:00.

Anyway, I am having a hard getting on here and finding some good deals.

I just wanted to give you a heads up.

Have a GREAT day!

Enjoy that sunshine wherever you may be.

I was able to get a pair of shoes/sandles for Blakey that were normally $19.99 on clearance for $10, then with the coupon made them $7!!!

Good luck!

Heads up for Capri Sun at Safeway

I was in there yesterday buying some Capri Sun with the $1/3 coupon (NLA) that I printed. Well, I discovered that my Safeway had pealies attached to the boxes for Save $1 when you buy 1 Roarin' Waters and 2 Capri Sun. That's just the same as the $1/3 that is NLA! The only difference is that you need to buy 1 of the Roarin' Waters Capri Sun.

Just remember to play nice and not take the pealies off of the items you are not purchasing. :)

Anyway, good luck!

Cheryl

Heads up for Rite Aid

Just a quick heads up. If you are looking to roll some rewards at Rite Aid this week (TODAY), they have the little boxes (I think 4-ct) of Whitman's Chocolates (regular and sugar-free), Russell Stover on sale for 2 for $3. Then, you get a $1 +UP FOR EACH ONE!

The real awesome thing is depending on what your discount is, your discount comes off too! As far as know, there are no limits. I could be wrong. Let's just say......I bought quite a few (there were still plenty on the shelf) and ALL of my Ups printed.

So, you can do this.....

Whitman's Chocolates $1.50 X2
-discount (mine is 20%)
=As low as $1.27
Plus, get back (2) $1 +UP Rewards, making mine ONLY $0.27!

This really isn't too bad if you need to roll some Ups!

Thanks!
