I'm watching the Golden Globes and rather enjoying myself. I fully understand why they call it LA LA Land.

Grocery Savings

My sister in law (thanks Lettie) has taught me how to use a great website called Grocery Smarts and I am kicking butt on saving money at the store. This trip I spent 132.50 and saved 148.40! Not too bad for an hour of work! I have started a new blog (Yeah, I Clip Coupons) which I will update with my grocery spoils! Check it out!

It was a princess party day. Thanks Grandma for the pretty princess dresses!

Pop

Okay, so I have the zit from hell on my chin. I kid you not, it's got to be 1/2 an inch across! It was one of those, you-feel-it-before-you-see-it zits that come up but don't actually give you anything to work with. You know what I'm talking about! Well, maybe you don't or you've just forgotten because it's been 20+ years since you've had to deal with this. Can anyone say ANNOYING! I put the full blame on my children since everything on my body changed once I had them. It's a good thing they're cute or I'd have to sell them in order to pay for my skin care products.

UGH

Enough already!



The plan is to knock the snow off the roof tonight. It's looking a little scary.

Shout Out

I admit it, it's my own fault. I have sequestered myself in volunteer work and a new house. It seems I haven't seen many friends lately and I hope they haven't forgotten about me. So in an effort to reconnect, I've decided I want to have a Mama Mia party soon. Every one's invited. I'll be sending out evites with the day and time and instructions to wear a feather boa or sequins. I hope all of you are doing well!

Drop me a line some time!

Carry on, Carrion!

I was reading something the other day and came across the word "carrion". It was actually someones last name and I immediately thought that it was unfortunate for an individual to go through life with a last name that means "dead meat". Then it struck me that if this person only changed one letter, the name would read "carryon" which of course, separated, would mean to persevere. What a funny play on words. I mean really, wouldn't we all hope that '09 brings us the ability to persevere and not a feeling of dead meat!
