SCORE!!!

Now, today began terribly. Migraine coming on, medicine not working, feeling like dirt. But in the end, the day was good. You know, you can't just stop being a mom because you don't feel well. So, after breakfast, schooling, cleaning, laundry and lunch, we began the trek to town for Girl Scouts. Now I call it "the trek" because we live 14 miles from "town". And I call it town, well because it is. We live in the country, not "town". I had exactly 1 1/2 hours while the girls were at Scouts to get my grocery shopping done. List in hand, I ventured into Kroger. Saved huge $ today! And just look at what I scored- bottles of laundry detergent (41 load, 78 ounces) for $1.88 EACH!! Oh yeah! I was really about to start making my own detergent to save $ but not sure I could beat this deal. So I loaded up 6 bottles and headed to the check out.

After coming home, making chicken pot pie for dinner (yummy!), eating and going to hubby's ballgame, I ran to Publix. Yes, I am one of those weirdos who follows sales and shops at 2 or 3 or 4 different stores to maximize my sale/coupon savings. BUT, I tell you I got 26 items at Publix for $36!! And I only buy things we use. Organic milk, organic butter, 12 pack double roll toilet paper, Kashi cereal and more! That's right, all that and more for $36!

Okay, I'll stop tooting my own horn and head off to clean.....again. Why is it that I feel like that's all I do?! Oh, and laundry. I keep telling my kids to "STOP WEARING CLOTHES!!". They just look at me like I have 3 heads.

And by the way, my migraine is finally gone. After 2 doses of Imitrex. That's why I have to work so hard at saving $ on groceries- my migraine medicine is over $20 per pill!

And this stuff smells really good- hope it works well! They do have others scents, just in case you need to run out and get yourself some. Hey, you like my warm and inviting laundry room? Since I spend 1/6 of my time in there I thought I'd at least make it cozy.

In Him,
