So did I mention that this new coupon savvy site (As if saving loads of money wasn't good enough) krazycouponlady gives stuff away ALL THE TIME. Now she is giving away *drum roll* Lots of baby accessory awesomeness from a totally cute online store called GoBabyIdaho.blogspot.com
up for grabs is a HOOTER HIDER, a so so chic diaper bag, and a carseat cover. Does it get any better than free? um. Nope.

Spinning. So Dizzy. and also so Savy...money Savy that is

Ok so this morning I woke up and when I got out of bed, I felt like the room was tilting. Yeah, I think I got a bit of Vertigo...It's odd I've been walking around like a drunkard all day cause I feel like I go to step and the floor is tilted...its a very strange feeling, its never happened to me before.

And on another note: My friend told me about this lady's blog and she ONLY posts deals on how to get stuff for super cheap...like pennies. Really, I'm totally serious and she posts stuff DAILY if not hourly! I've already printed a bunch of Kleenex Cottonelle TP coupons cause that brand is on sale & with the coupon it makes it $.29/pkg So Srsly...go here you will not regret it:

"One in a million shot, Doc"

If any of you have ever seen the proctologist episode of Seinfield, You know what I'm talkin about. Kramer says that at cocktail parties Proctologists are the ones you want to be around because they always have the best stories and the stories always end with "One in a million shot, Doc"
Well today, My hubby and I decide to go shooting while the kids are in school for kicks and giggles (the thing about being unemployed is your schedule is more open) So I'm practicing shooting Micah's little .22 pistol and one of the shells kicked out of the chamber and flew into my shirt and burned my cleavage. I was wearing a t-shirt even. It was one of those unlikely things. a small peice of burning hot brass happened to pop out at just the right speed and angle and got down my shirt where it happened to have a bit of pucker. One in a million shot.

So I don't know where this saying came from, but my mom is always saying that "When your at the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on." Although usually she just says the "tie a knot and hang on" part. I'm not really sure which knot I'll tie...I'm trying to remember all of the different kinds I learned while helping my mom with cub scout day-camp last year, but I'm having a bit of trouble. I may just have to stick with a good ol' fashion square knot.

I stumbled upon this article today on being steadfast and immovable. Read it for a really great pep talk on keeping the faith.

Also, In other news, I didn't realize that a few weeks ago my Favorite non-politician person in politics spoke to the Republican side of the House on this Asinine bill that some .......not-so-smart people are trying to pass. Yep, in case you didn't guess it was Mitt Romney---the "wicked smart" guy who should have won the Republican nomination and the presidency. He spoke at the House Republican Conference bringing some very valid points. For a great speech full of insight and wisdom go here

WARNING: This Plastic Bag IS NOT a Toy


Yes it is. My boys decided after being told to put the plastic grocery bags away, to instead use them to perfect the art of "plastic bag parachuting off the couch." Surely if one, two, or three bags wouldn't do the job, then 5 or 6 Definitely will. They got several jumps in via off the back of my couch and practiced different combos: Picture this 3 bags attached to their backs like backpacks via arms through the handle holes then holding 2 or 3 above the head as they launch....unfortunately, as all other children before them have learned as well, there isn't enough lift in the bags or distance between the top of the couch and the floor to get carried by the bags. I'm glad they didn't think to try from the top of their bunk beds :)

mary poppins practically perfect in every way



Dear Ms. Poppins,

I was wondering if you could kindly tell me how to become "Practically Perfect in Every Way." Because every time I measure myself, it only says 5'2 3/4" tall and Right now my child is pinching my arm because I'm not letting him play his game because I'm trying to blog. So obviously I'm NOT practically perfect in every way or my arm wouldn't hurt and my 5 year old would not be crying at me. Plus, My Christmas Cards are not even started and I just found out that my Brother and his wife are coming to stay tonight and my house looks like a tornado hit it and I have A LOT of treats to make because we made our "Delivery list" last night and it's long. I wish so many people weren't so nice to me, then I wouldn't want to be nice back. Could you also give me some tips on how to snap your fingers and make things dance and put themselves away? That would be great. Thanks so much.

Sincerely,
Overwhelmed and Exasborated
Rachel
