Yikes!

I just noticed it has been 10 days since I lasted blogged! Yikes! What on Earth have I been doing in that 10 days? Nothing all that important, just working, cleaning a lot (late spring cleaning if you will), and spending time with DH. I started doing work on a new project that has not been nearly as lucrative as I thought it would be. I have been told it should pick up by September, and I am really hoping it will.
Nothing really new on the debt paydown or financial front. We have had a lot of small, irregular bills trickle in- car tax, life insurance premium, some medical bills for a minor surgery DH had, things of that nature. Nothing we can't handle, but just enough to nickle and dime you to death! I am trying to learn the 'drug store game' and did my first trip to Walgreens last week. I got two packs of printer paper, a Schitck quatro razor, two packs of batteries, and toothpaste for around $12. I was pretty pleased, since it was my first attempt. I know if I had bought all that at Walmart, I would have spent $30.
We find out what the baby is in about 3 weeks. I can't wait. I am so ready to start decorating the room and getting it really ready for the little one.
Payday is next week, so I should have a nice update. Hopefully, Chase will bite the dust with this update!

  1. If you have a boy, I saw Target has the most adorable rocket ships bedding set!! I was so tempted to get one today, but I dont know anyone having a boy.

    If you have any questions about the drugstore games, just let me know! Do you have a CVS by you? They seem to have the best deals out there. There will be a good diaper deal next week to help get you started with a stockpile. You might be able to get a good stash before the LO gets here :)

  2. Thanks!:) Your other website has been so helpful in helping explain things! We do have a CVS; I am going tomorrow to take advantage of that awesome diaper deal they have and a few of the other specials.
