I like to talk about money, budgets, food, organizing and lots of other fun stuff!
Where has the day gone? I could have sworn I just woke up minutes ago to Maggie pacing back and forth across the bedroom and the cats pawing at the door to be fed. Don’t they know I like to sleep in? Assholes.
I accomplished everything on my to-do list for the day except cleaning the dishwasher, which is currently sporting some red hot tomato stains. Sexy. I added this to the top of the list for tomorrow.
Richard came home from work early because he had a doctor’s appointment. Before he left, we went to the mall to find some much needed clothing. I’ve decided to invest more time and money into myself. I don’t want to be one of those women who has a baby and then says well, I just had a baby, I’m supposed to be fat and frumpy and have greasy hair because I haven’t showered in four days.
We didn’t have time to try anything on, so we just grabbed what we thought would look good and tried everything on when we got home. I personally bought 2 pairs of jeans, 5 shirts, a tank top, a pair of tights and 2 necklaces. I’ll be returning all but 2 shirts, 1 necklace and both pairs of jeans (I do have to exchange them for a larger size though - screw you, GIANT ASS).
We were supposed to have some fat juicy burgers for dinner but of course Mother Nature had to go and be a bitch and make it rain all night. So instead we got Wendy’s. Since I am trying to eat healthier, I didn’t order my usual chicken nuggets with fries and instead opted for a mandarin chicken salad and a baked potato (which had cheese, sour cream and bacon on it because PLAIN BAKED POTATOES ARE BORING). Well, the cheese on the potato was similar to Cheez-Wiz and tasted like what I’d imagine a pile of poop would taste like. And the chicken in the salad was definetely a frozen product, therefor making it completely inedible. I’m sorry, but how hard is it to cook fresh chicken breast? I DO IT ALL THE TIME, and I suck at cooking.
After a very unsatisfying dinner, Elliott was being all cute and playful and DAMN I HAVE THE CUTEST BABY EVER. I took out his Jolly Jumper that my sister bought for him and put him in there and he loved it. It was the cutest thing in the world to see him bounce up and down, squealing in delight. I wish you were all there to see it. It was awesome. I can’t believe my kid is so cute. I am totally bragging but guess what - I don’t care because MY KID IS AWESOME.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Where do you get coupons? I get them everywhere. Online printables, in-store tearpads, sometimes flyers will have a coupon booklet with a few coupons in it, emailing companies and asking for coupons, trading coupons with others, etc.
How do you get so many? I do alot of coupon trades. If I want a certain coupon really bad, I will post a request asking if anyone has that coupon, to send me a message. I get alot of trades done this way. Trading is awesome!
Any advice to a newbie couponer? My only advice would be to stick with it. It's very time comsuming and frustrating in the beginning, but once you get the hang of it, it's very easy and definetely worth the time.
