But tasty!!!

Pork tenderloin, creamed corn, sweet potatoes...

Here's what I did today -

First transaction:

Got 2 packs of Trident Xtra Gum -



CVS has them on sale B1G1 free. I also had a B1G1 free coupon from the paper, making these two packs of gum free, PLUS I got $1 ECB.

Second transaction:

2 pack Oral B Indicator toothbrushes -


*note, I actually bought a 2-pack. The picture I snagged from google had the wrong label on it - sorry!

$4.99 (CVS had them on sale down from $5.99)
-$1 coupon from the paper
-$4 ECBs

Free, PLUS I got another $2 ECB.

Third transaction:

4 bottles of Loreal Vive Pro Shampoo and Conditioner (2 bottles of each).



CVS had them B1G1, and I had 2 B1G1 coupons. I used both! And got 4 bottles for free! I also had a $1 off any Loreal product coupon from the paper, so I made a dollar here.

I got 3 bottles of Garnier Nutrisse conditioner. I always seem to run out of conditioner way faster than shampoo.



CVS had them on sale for 3 for $9.99. I also had 2 separate coupons - one for $1 off and one for $2 off, making these $6.99 for all three bottles. Also, something cool to note here, all these bottles had 2 free trial size bottles taped onto them. So I also got 6 trial sized bottles of Garnier shampoo/conditioners for free!

And the last thing was the ALL 32-loads liquid detergent. I found $1 printable coupons on the internet, and CVS had these on sale for B1G1 free, bringing the price down to $4.49 for two bottles after the sale price and the $2 in coupons.



So, after it rang up, I still had $6 in ECBs to use, which brought my grand total down to...

$4.86 after tax. For all that stuff.

Believe it!

CVS rocks my socks off. It should rock yours off, too.

Isn't he the cutest baby? And he was an angel the entire time.

Plese get my WSUS working. That is all. Kthx.

Because you like this word so much. This is on the front page of our paper today!

Yum!

I took this picture of Dr Phil on the bedroom TV a moment ago from The Soup. What I wanted your opinion on is if it looks like to you guys that he put his dentures in crooked?

New hair. Rob snapped a picture for me. Sorry for the glasses and no makeup. I don't go to bed very glamorous!

Also, just in case anyone was wondering, no I didn't color it. :)

Smart Ones strawberry shortcake. Good!

Rob took a picture of this "special" drink at the redneck liquor store
while at the lake this weekend. LOL

Terry will be on Letterman tonight, so tune in, peeps!!

If you're reading my public entry blogs because you're interested in my crappy photog skillz, then I feel it's only right to let you know that my BRAND! NEW! MEMORY! CARD! and memory card reader was stolen during my last week of employment with Intervoice. That's what I get for leaving it there overnight. Oh well.

Although I have another memory card, I've just not gotten around to getting a new card reader, and that's why you're not seeing new daily photos.

I'm sure you're not TOO heartbroken, considering some of the photos I've posted in the past.

Love to all!!

FYI - if you're not interested in using this account, and you're telling yourself that you're not signing up because I don't use a PayPal account anyway, then at least sign up and donate that money to a charity. IT'S FREE MONEY, PEOPLE. Do you realize how many charities could use $25, even if you think you don't need it?? :)

Just a little guilt tactic. Hopefully it works. LOL

I did it. And you should, too.

There are literally no strings attached. I've looked all over the web for anything negative regarding this company, and so far, all I've heard are good things. I hope you'll try it, too - just click my link (which will give me $10!!) and open your own account.

All this is, is an attempt to throw PayPal off their high pedestal. We'll see if it actually takes off or not. :)

Every year, they are all yellow, but this one is going to be purple!! It's like it morphed or something!

In our fence!

We had the fence restained, but it seems that the stain did not take in some places, so they are coming back out tomorrow for a 2nd coat.

After tomorrow, I'll post better pics - I have flowers planted now, and I'll have the chair cushions back on the chaise lounges...

These are in my backyard. So GORGEOUS! They only last a couple of days, but I have enough stalks that there always seem to be some in bloom. !!!

I watched this ALL THE TIME when I was a kid.

Wow. Just dated myself.

One of my favorite pictures in the house...

This is Rob flipping the popcorn over, after it's cooked. He gave me this popper as a Christmas gift a few years back, and every once in a while, we like to pull it out and make black-kernal popcorn to have with ice cold cokes, while watching a good movie.

More backyard pictures??

Julie, when you come visit me this summer, this is where we will sit. Just sayin'.

*eek. I just noticed that this picture was taken before we brushed the pool. Kinda dirty. Oops!

Do you see what I see?



( Do you see it? )

Dear Party People,

This was not an ashtray.

I think you need a badge to get into our garage, dude.

This is on the trails near my house...

A nice long visit from one of my best friends from high school - Sinai!

Japanese IQ Test

To play, click the blue circle to start.

The following rules apply:

Only 2 persons on the raft at a time.

The father cannot stay with any of the daughters, without their mother's presence.

The mother cannot stay with any of the sons, without their father's presence.

The thief (striped shirt) cannot stay with any family member, if the Policeman is not there.

Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft.

To move the people, click on them. To move the raft, click on the pole on the opposite side of the river. The solution is possible! THIS IS NOT A TRICK!

So, I opened my mailbox on Thursday, and there was a box inside it from sonrisa_78!

BIRTHDAY PRESENTS!!!



The most delicious smelling candle and hand cream you can imagine. And the cutest note cards - I'll be using these as Thank-You cards (for the birthday party I had) ASAP.

I love them all. Thank you so much, Julie!

Self-portrait. No makeup and glasses. I am HOTT. </sarcasm>

However, I am still officially 29 in this picture.
