Coupons

I have to admit...I am one of THOSE people when it comes to grocery shopping, eating out, or anything I have a coupon for.

I buy the Entertainment Book each year, $25, and it pays for itself in about 2 uses!!!! Save $5 here, buy one dinner get one dinner free there, free admission to this place, discounts on oil changes at that place. I get the Sunday paper only, sometime the double addition, or I will take the coupons from the one at work too....multiple coupons!

I am NOT a Wal-Mart shopper..... I HATE THE STORE CLOSE TO ME!!!! If necessary and I am somewhere else I might stop, but I do most all my shopping at Kroger, with my plus card, sales and coupons, I feel like I do better and getting what I WANT for a reasonable price. Not like at Wal-Mart, where they only carry certain sizes and certain brands because in the long run it is cheaper for them.

I have shopped at the store and saved up to $7o with coupons and using my Kroger Card. I have a 3 ring binder with the baseball card sleeves in it, and dividers, it works great. Logan makes it fun shopping with the coupons too, he takes them, and goes and finds it. He asks 'which one do we have a coupon for?' Such a frugal little man already!

???????

I was not sure what to title this.

I has been a while since I have blogged, and it is NOT for lack of thoughts, but for lack to time!

I have been so run down, just getting over a pretty bad sinus infection, left work and had a fever, but you gotta love a Z-Pack!! Once you are down with something like that, it is hard to get over it. Or more so get your energy back up.

The whole Texas Ranger thing is just AWESOME!!! Logan is really into the games, and he HATES the New York Yankees, it is funny, on the radio tonight, you could hear them chanting...."Yankees Suck...Yankees Suck", so MY son verbally agrees by saying....'Yeah the Yankees do suck!!'. I of course found more humor in it than Ray did.

Top of the 7th and the Rangers are ahead, 5-1 !!

This is really cool for me, see when I was growing up one summer, my dad had season tickets to the Rangers in the old stadium. I loved that summer more than anything, the time I spent with my dad, was the best! We loved our baseball. My favorites at that time...Pete O'Brien, Buddy Bell, Bucky Dent, Jim Sunberg....I am sure not too many of you remember those names. I almost have goosebumps, knowing (as Eric Nadel put it) the Rangers are 3 innings from the WORLD SERIES, first time in Franchise History!! I have been lucky enough to have kiddo who loves the game as much and I do. I am glad we did get to go to the ALDS against the Tampa Bay Rays, although we lost, it was great to be able to take Logan to that. I called my dad on the way to our seats, to tell Daddy about going to the game, and I got a little teary eyed, I am not sure why...maybe it was because I was glad to be there, or maybe it was because I was so glad to be sharing something with my son that was such a great part of my childhood with my dad! I love you daddy!!!

Bottom of the 7th 5-1!!!!!

The Reason.......

My Reason!

This is my reason for doing what I do! My boy! My little man.

I had this picture, and just wanted to share.

I can not tell anyone how proud of him I am! He made the A/B Honor roll! his lowest grade was an 86 in Reading, but ya know, he is doing really great and I could not be happier.

Relaxing?

How do you relax?

I guess I need so tips from others, I am learning I don't know how to do it.

Work has been insanely crazy, I am one of those that I don't feel like i bring it home, but the exhaustion you cant leave behind, then it flows over into your personal life.

This is going to be a wonderfully beautiful weekend. Maybe I will just go for walk at some point and see if that helps.
