But it was a good day being back in the routine! Mondays are the day I get all the laundry done. That is usually 6-7 loads each Monday. I would rather do it all in 1 day than to spread it out over the week. I also hit the grocery store every Monday. Today I fit in a CVS trip as well which is always exciting. Since I am already on the the subject, I haven't updated on my couponing experiences lately. I have finally found what works for me. Grocery shopping with coupons was just not working for me. I had our grocery budget already pretty streamlined before I started doing coupons. I found when I started trying to do coupons I just added more money that I spent. So I try to limit using coupons to only things I was going to buy anyway or things I know are our "staples." So I really don't do too much with coupons at the grocery store. I also found I don't like to stock up. That just isn't for me. I do try to look ahead and shop sales but not buy something if I don't need it pretty soon. Where I am saving TONS of money is at CVS. I love "playing" their game. Today I spent $1.68 and got tons of stuff. I also have $6 to take back for next week. That is where I am seeing the savings. I know it is different for everyone but this is what works for me!
And I have to mark today (because I still haven't started Kate's baby book) - Kate finally cut her 3rd tooth today!!! It has been about 3 months since she got her last one. She has been working on the top ones for months and one broke through today!! YEA!! Finally!!
Just some cute pictures...
