Happy Anniversary

well today is my 6th wedding anniversary. Happy anniversary to my hubby! We have been thru so much in the past 6 years. I don't know what I would do without him (I would definitely have less hair from pulling it out! lol)
I guess tomorrow starts the 7 year itch? h well lol!
Thanks to my mom over at www.3partnersinshopping.blogspot.com for the well wishes!!

recap

Hi all,
First and foremost thank you all for checking it. It has been a rough winter! We got about 7 feet of snow. ugh. I haven't been shopping, but I have been working on other things. It was also the year anniversary since my dad died, and on that day we welcomed my new niece in the world. Nothing beats a baby! Especially when you are an aunt.
I have also started knitted. The real kind. lol. before I was using a loom. (and only made scarves and hats). Now I am making an afghan for our queen size bed. I figured to start I wanted a big project to clear up any issues. After all it's only for me.
My sister taught me how to do mile a minute knitting. Thanks Lori!
Hopefully this is the beginning of more regular posting.
I want to post pics of my afghan, and it is time to start up working in my greenhouse too.

Happy Holidays

I hope everyone has a blessed holiday season. Best wishes for a safe and happy New Year!. I have not been blogging, because I have been wicked busy. Also on Christmas day we had to put 1 of our family dogs to sleep. She was 12,and gave us 4 beautiful puppies ( 1 of which we have still). She truly was a wonderful lap dog, and I miss her dearly. Cancer is a horrible disease. Then the next day my Aunt's cat had to be put to sleep as well. Callie cat was truly a companion cat to my aunt. We used to tease my parents that Callie was ours because we were only allowed to have gerbil's/hamsters as pets. My Aunt lived right next door and we were always there playing with Callie. Little did we know that the house we grew up in would have 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 4 puppies at 1 point. God Bless them and the animals that are here with us. Animals are truly a blessing. The 12 years with Ramona and the 18 years with Callie I would not give away for anything.

I am back

ok, so are you wondering where I was? me too... lol
I am running for Board of Education in my town, and this last month has been crazy. Between going door to door, meeting seniors, Fund Raisers, and SHOPPING of course I have been wicked busy. I have to say that my stockpile of bake goods is finally manageable. I have also used so many other stockpile items that you only use this time of year (like baking soda, and Instant Oatmeal). Yes I made Oatmeal pecan cookies by scratch (imagine pecan pie and an Oatmeal cookie). Almost Every day my hubby and I were making double brownie mixes or pasta or cookies. Needless to say it has been crazy. My mom is also running for Town Council, and my Hubby is running for Selectman. Wish us luck we need it! It is the first time I am a candidate, my hubby as well, and it has been interesting. My mom has been been elected to BOE and TC before. So after Tuesday I should be back on track for blogging.

Rut Roh!

Soooooooo, I cleaned my pantry last night...and of course today I find out that the Shaw's deal triples...on Pre Sale Prices again.... So I am going to Shop Rite today and Shaw's. Plus I am dropping off some free brownies I made at a senior center today! Thank you Shaw's for free brownie mixes :)
Plus I want to stop at CVS... and of course I wouldn't mind Wag's again.... I wonder if hubby will drive me around ALL day.... Well I am off! I will try to post ASAP what I find at Shaw's for good PSP!

Guardian's of the ribbon tour 2009

This is a pink touring firetuck (3 actually) that travel around to promote brerat cancer awareness. They came to MY town! My Hubby is involved with the Fire Dept. and it was a beautiful site to see. You also get to sign your name on a firetruck! The firemen also wear Pink uniforms. I suggest that everyone look this up, and see if you can see it in person. It is breathtaking! We all know someone affected by cancer :( Thats my Hubby and our godchild.... she wanted to stand on the truck! Thats my Hubby :)
Thats my nephew, he wanted to go pet the doggies that were there!

She is alot happier now she got her way lol.

Catch up

So here's the deal, I have so many rebaes to send away for, by the 3oth, that I am going to not blog them and just send them out.. I got $30 in rebates back today from Staples too. Anyway I also have to start my winter set of seeds for the greenhouse... Happy fall everyone!

Happy Holiday all!

Oh man, it isn't that time of year again... is it?
I love the fall, I mean seriously I would freeze frame time if I could. I had a fall wedding, I have an apple kitchen lol, and pretty much everything I do has a fall theme. I saw Pumpkins last night at Price Chopper... We are using the corn stalks from our garden again this year to decorate. I slacked off last week, and only shopped at Target. This is a good week tho, Wags looks very good. I'll bb in a bit to blog (We went to Wags last night). Plus I have a bunch of old stuff still that I need to blog about. I have been updating the different store posts. Until I am caught up all old post will go under their store. Also what is with the rebates. Crazy crazy crazy. I received 3 Staples rebates last week, a RX rebate, and a Softsoap $4 rebate, for a grand total of $48... Which we used to go out to eat at Subway, and I won a free pass to Club Pogo thru their Scrabble game.lol
Oh and My sisters are soooooo lucky it scares me. 1 of my sisters won $5 thru Gushers, and my other sister won $10 thru Reeces. It is official, I am Jealous lol.

I'm Backkkkkk!

LOL sorry everyone, I am from CT and drove down to MD for a few days... During the really good week at Shaws. So I was either shopping, traveling or sleeping. lol I have so much to blog about that I do not even know where to start. So please bear with me. I am going to try to group my transactions by store and date. I know that there are receipts missing that I will just have to add on. Also there are alot of really good rebates right now.
I have gotten rebates back too:
