Extreme couponer....in training

I have been sucked into the whole extreme couponing fad.  So now I am beginning my adventure attemping to duplicate these insane savings.  I have no intention of even going near food.  I waste the small amounts that I buy now and I have no extra space to put any excess food.  So I am starting with things I do use in excess, which is toothpaste, hand soap, dishsoap etc....  Eventually I would also like to get into stuff for the baby such as diapers, baby food and stuff. 

So my internet adventure begins...For the last 15 minutes I have typed in every combination of "toothpaste coupons" and have gotten nowhere.  I have also now signed up for a few "newsletters" that say theyre going to send me coupons...I have my doubts.  Maybe I should create a whole new email to hold all of this junk mail ; )  Hopefully I catch a break soon or this adventure may be ending before it even gets started!

A whole new world....

It has been awhile since my last blog for a couple of reasons...A) I couldnt think of anything to yap about and B) the baby leaves me very little time for such things!  But.... there has been some big changes and wanted to share! I found a new job working at another veterinary clinic here in Dayton.  It is a lot of fun being a receptionist.  I actually like dealing with the public (most days) and can usually laugh it off when they are severely on my nerves!  It has been very hectic dealing with work, school, homelife, cleaning and of course baby!  Besides being deprived of sleep, I actually thrive on being super busy.  I love being super woman and showing myself what I am capable of.  Now back to talking about my baby! I could talk about him all day long but I am sure nobody wants to hear about it!  I get tired of others talking about their babies because then I cant talk about mine! lol  But he is getting so big!  He grabs ...

Gracie bio

Name: Gracie Nickname: Gracie retarded, pretty girl, stupid face Likes: Barking, cuddling, playing with bones and go-nut, annoying people when they come visit Dislikes: Being told no, being told no barking, being told no jumping, being alone Gracie is by far the best and worst dog on the planet.  When no one but us is around and when the neighbors dogs arent outside, she is sooo sweet and smart.  She loves being right up next to us and lays her head on our lap and just loves our company.  Her favorite pastttime is going into the bathroom and stealing empty toilet paper rolls (We usually leave these on the floor for her to "sneak" in and steal).  The other super cute thing she does is getting all of her toys in a pile and then laying down and enjoying a taste of each.  I wish others got to see this part of her, but unfortunately, when others come to visit she turns into devil dog.  She barks, refuses to listen to anyone and jumps and scratches everyone ...

Family photos

So I have been tirelessly working to get all of the pictures from my computer printed and burned onto CD's.  Let me tell you that this is something that should be done a lot more often than every few years!  My issue is that A) there are no dates  on the back of digital photos, so I have to go through and write the date and any info I want to remember when Im old.  B) I am still too afraid to delete them from my computer because should I ever want to reprint one of the pics, I would have to redownload the entire CD to my computer and then go through all of that to print one out.  Technology Sucks!  Whatever happened to the old days where you took out your 35mm camera, took a pic (and gasp! had no idea what it looked like or who had their eyes closed), got it developed at your local store and then bam! that was all the evidence you had! If the pic got lost or ruined, oh well...at least  you had the memory....but noooo...these days I can spend days agoni...
