Learning to multi-task

Last Sunday we put our home up FSBO. I already have a showing this evening! I am not to sure where to start with the paperwork so I am going to contact a real estate attorney for leadership. After our lives calm down I am going to attend Real Estate school. This has become a huge passion of mine and will allow me to stay home with our daughter while contributing to our income!

I have volunteered my time with a group I am a member of, Wicked Women Racing. I recently helped design our clothing line that we hope to launch in the next few weeks. I am planning a Wicked Women Give Back event for our spring cruise in on April 19 at the Quaker Steak and Lube in Milford.

I will continue to do Weigh in Wednesdays, although I didn't do it last week. I hope to do a Taking Time to Trade Thursday to go over briefly the deals of the week and hope to trade with others from here and HCW.

Ontop of all that, I am still planning our wedding!!! This has become overwhelming. I can't wait to become Jason's wife and have the same last name as our daughter!

I am truly blessed with my life and can't wait for the future!

Tell your friends about this blog, leave a comment and I will send you some useful q's!

Coupon Preview 3/22

I caught a woman red handed in Kroger last week stealing coupons. She did it right behind the customer service desk. She took the coupons out of 3 papers, stuck the inserts in her paper and checked out at the self scan! What nerve, right?

Well please make sure your coupons are in the paper. I know it shouldn't come to this, but, better safer than sorry! To the lady at the Bach Buxton Amelia, SHAME ON YOU!

Trade Coupons

I am looking for a way for everyone to list coupons they are looking for. If you have the coupon(s) you can email the OP and trade with one another. I want to keep the email and mailing addresses private and not for everyone to see. In the meantime simply hit the COMMENT button and list what coupons you are looking for.

Thank you to KIM for the idea!

Weigh in Wednesday

The time is flying by around here. We've had 2 beautiful days and it gets me excited! I feel like doing so much I can't get it all done! I have been walking/jogging everyday for at least an hour. I am now walking on the treadmill for 1/4 mile and run 1/4 mile. I alternate back and forth for my 1 hour workout and feel GREAT! I can tell when I have not done my workout. I feel like a dump on those days!

I am down 4 pounds from last week!

I am learning that it is not only about working out and counting calories, but, PORTION CONTROL! I am learning to eat bigger breakfasts and lunches. Dinner time has always been the BIG meal of the day. I am starting to realize that shouldn't be the case and trying to change this.

I am a HUGE sweet kinda girl. If I have a craving I have been heading towards the 100Calorie packs. Now I don't get them every day, but, will treat myself.

I also have a "cheat" day on Sunday. I will indulge in 1 of my weekly cravings while limiting my amount.

Ebates, earn cash back!

You have often read how I take surveys and save the money earned for Christmas gifts. coupons outlet lets you shop at the stores you already shop at online and gives you up to 25% back! You earn 3% Cash back on Ebay purchases, Sephora is doubling to 8% cash back and free shipping on orders over $35 and Target gives 4% cash back! You will also receive exclusive coupon codes!

MIR (Mail In Rebates)

I am trying to get my blog to be different. We all go to the same blogs (Nickels N Dimes, LMKIA, Mommy Snacks, etc). There is no reason for me to do the exact same thing. So I have decided to give you a list of MIR! I know this is going to be a learning experience for all of us. I am trying to figure out how to make a spreadsheet to keep track of all your mailings for everyone to use. I will put that here as soon as I figure it out!

Wanted: IDEAS

Ok, so I know there are quite a few of you who read my blog, but, never post. I want ideas from you and I will reward you. Tell me what you would like to see from me. I know there are a TON of blogs that you all read that have the same deals each week. I want to be different and still have a lot of participation.

Do you want to see more IP's? More FREEBIES? List of deals with only IP's? Coupon swap?What is it that will make you become more active with my blog. I know you are reading it, I can see the numbers!

To reward you and hope to get you participating, I am offering you coupons! When you comment at the bottom leave your top 10 most wanted coupons! I will get in contact with you to get your email address. Feel free to email other friends, post on message boards, etc.

The more participation the more we can save together!

P&G Booklet status

Several people have emailed me wondering how others are checking their status for their coupon booklet from P&G. Well the good news is that you can check on their website, here.

I was able to get my status and says it will be sent on 3/15!!!! I am so excited! I know several others, including my friend D, can not get her status to show up. Don't get discouraged, a lot of HCW members can't get their status on the website and have already received their booklet. No rhyme or reason, but, it's worth a shot!

Friday Freebies

I am posting these early as I am going to be SUPER BUSY tomorrow! Feel free to add any freebies you found this week as I have been slacking since we were out of town.

Victoria Secret gift bag free and $10 off $35 PINK Purchase, here

Don't forget to use your Q for FREE SUAVE. It exp 3/31.

Weigh in Wednesday

I know I know, it's Thursday, but, I wanted to start this week! We just got back from a racing trip to Bradenton, FL. I am just now catching up! I will post next weeks deals for you to get a head start gathering your q's in a few.

As some of you know, Jason and I are getting married on Oct. 10, 2009! Yes, in 7 very short months. I want to lose 20-30 pounds in that time. So I have already began eating healthier, which was mostly mental. As long as I buy the fruits and veggies I will eat them because I LOVE THEM!
Along with eating well I bought a treadmill with a incline. I have been using it 2-3 days a week and run/walking a mile. I know I need to do more, but, I have to motivate myself and find time when Hannah is sleeping. I need to quit doing things around the house and focus on myself. I am trying to work on that now!

I hope some of you will join me on Weigh in Wednesday's. Even if you don't want to loose weight we can all eat healthier.

What are your weight loss secrets? How much do you exercise a day?
