Last week I crossed the line. I went from a weirdo, binder-weilding coupon lady to a Crazeeeee Coupon Lady. I bought coupons from ebay. Yes. Really. I did.
Due to a great promotion Albertson's had been running, we are majorly stocked up. I will be able to go months without buying many things like shampoo, q-tips, spaghetti sauce, cereal, granola bars, laundry detergent, etc. Therefore, there was only going to be one coupon we would really want/use in Sunday's paper. Instead of buying the paper, I headed to eBay and got 20 of them for less than the price of 2 papers. While there I found some tearpad coupons that will work well with the Albertson's/Kraft promo that starts tomorrow, so I got those, too. Score!

back to the grind, well for a minute anyway
Today Thomas and I started back on our homeschool stuff. I had intended to keep up with a few subjects over the summer. But the best laid plans of mice and men and all that jazz . . . We've had a KickAwesome (stealing that from Chelsea) summer and math was not getting in the way!
visiting our family
and friends in Indiana
camping
hanging with friends
having family visit here
It's enough to wear a person out.
Public school starts here this week, so I figured we should at least try to get rolling. We need to get a bit of book learnin' in before we head off on another trip. This time the PNW beckons! I've never been . . . only drooled over t a c k y b u z z e r ' s photos. On tap for this trip: Cascades NP, Olympic NP & Mt. Ranier NP. That'll be educational, though, right?
Thomas did have an unusual amount of focus today. I hope that bodes well for our homeschooling journey this year. We finished early enough to have some free time, run our errands and still get home before public school let out. SaWeet! To celebrate, I'm making the Thomas-friendly version of chicken & dumplings tonight.
