Have I Mentioned I like to Coupon?

As a part of my resolution to organize Because my drawer was too fucking full to put anything else in it, I decided it was time to clean out some of the coupons! There they are about 9 months worth of coupons (do you see my AWESOME label maker in the background :)). I usually keep the whole years worth of coupons but thanks to True Couponing I will no longer be doing that. If you follow that link you can see a current list of the expired coupons. They update and re-post the list quite frequently. I think I will check back every 4 months or so to keep the coupon drawer light and clean. I SO wish I would have found this sooner.

Just a bit of coupon insert saving back story... I have been couponing for about 2 years now and have tried many different ways of doing it. I have tried the binder method and the don't cut anything until you need it method. In the end I found that a combination of the 2 worked best for me.

Each week when the paper arrives I will go through it and find the coupons I know I am likely to use and cut them out. I store those in a pencil type zipper bag in my purse. One side has the grocery type coupons and the other side has anything else that is not food. Since I don't cut out that many I keep them with me always (we are pretty sporadic when it comes to grocery shopping). Whatever I do not cut out I keep stored, by month, in my file drawer. Whenever I see a good deal online I can go right to the drawer, pull the insert and cut any extra coupons I need.

Sun Sunday?

In trying to get on some sort of blogging schedule I have playing with the idea of different themed days. My husband, we shall call him BB muffins, and I were thinking about different options. We thought of Zombie Zaturday and You're Doing it Wrong Wednesday and Tubesday (to give him the opportunity to join in all of the fun with YouTube videos). Sorry to hurt your feelings but none of these are happening. But how about Sun Sunday where I post an awesome picture of the sun? What do you think? Have a better idea for a themed weekly post? Share it in the comments!

Lady Bug Nail Art

I painted these cute lady bugs for my daughter this morning. I had barely just finished and the pointer got smudged. Note to self: paint 2 year old's nails when she is sleeping. The design is pretty easy to do. Paint a base coat (red). Draw a T, with the top of the T being thicker (black). Add black dots on both sides. Add 2 white dots for the eyes and then 2 black dots on top of that.

Be sure to check out all of the other nail designs we have done.

You're Not Going Anywhere Near my Face with That!

 So I am not quite sure where I want to go with this blog just yet. I don't know if I want to be a mom blogger who says words like fuck and somehow expects companies to throw free shit at me so I can give a super awesome review of it or if I want to post all of the really weird things that are real or if I want to pretend I am an awesome writer/crafter/organizer/couponer or whatever else so that people will flock to my blog in awe. In the meantime you(if there is anyone actually reading this regularly, ha) will get a random mix of everything I feel like sharing.

Today that involves these weird ass massage glasses. There is no way in hell** I would ever wear anything like this. Giant plastic rods pointing directly near my eyeballs? Also, why does this next photo involve a child? What purpose would a child have for such a torture device? Now if for some reason you are actually interested in purchasing these things they can be found over here and they only cost $14.05.

**Did I mention how I still use words/phrases like "no way in hell", "I swear to god", "OMG" and many more? I don't know, I still find these phrases useful. Maybe this should have been one of my new years resolutions? I mean you will NEVER catch me saying, "god bless you"...
