This week went by pretty fast. I spent pretty much all day Thursday trying to catch up on clothes. After 5 batches there was still a basket full. Of course I had a bag of hand me downs to wash and blankets off our bed. Can you really ever catch up with 5 people in the house? At the end of the day there is enough clothes to wash 1 batch on a good day. So I will still stick to washing at least 1 batch if not more a day.

I can't wait to see A Christmas Carol with Jim Carrey. I would like to buy the DVD right now there is a coupon for $10 off the blu-ray set. Here I will probably buy it on black Friday. I am sure they will have a deal somewhere on it.

Speaking of Black Friday Target, Toysrus, Bestbuy check it out here.

ABC's 25 days of Christmas starts early. I am happy about that b/c I love getting into the spirt of Christmas pretty early. Here is the schedule starts on November 21, 2010 with Holiday in Handcuffs and snowglobe. One of my favorite Christmas movies is Miracle on 34th Street not the black and white one. Never seen that one but could you see me trying to get my kids to watch black and white. They would think the tv is broken.

Looking for a really awesome deal. WWLTV offers 50% off restaurant deals. New one every week. Well I just checked their site and they have some left overs from past weeks and for a couple of local restaurants they are only charging $12.50 for a $50. gift card.

I kind of want a nook for Christmas. I miss reading a good book and there are so many out there. I have always wanted a library and this would be a way to get it. At Barnes and Nobles they have all kind of good free books here you can get downloaded to your nook or pretty much any other device here.

Everything is right around the corner. Thanksgiving is only 17 days away which means Black Friday is 18 days away and Christmas is 47 days away. I have been checking Gottadeals.com for any updates on black friday store ads. Of course the ones I really want to see are not posted yet.

Every year I get some pretty good deals at halfpricemall. Its local deals but you can check out your local radio station to see if they offer anything. They have a new one every Friday. I don't see anything really jumping out at me just yet.

Also WWLTV is also offering a deal once a week on different local restaurants to try out. Why not buy it at a discounted rate? This week they are offering Flaming Torch a $50 gift card for $25. Before purchasing any of these deals make sure you read all the fine print. Some have restrictions. Only can use them on certain days or before a certain time.

Deal of the Day. Today you can get a $30 gift card for 2 Chic hair & Skin in kenner for only $15. The gift card doesn't expire until 11-30-11 so not too bad. Make a great gift. You could sign up to get an email everyday for the new deals.

This is a pretty neat website if you have an iphone and would like to get some free apps. I don't have that type of phone so not sure how great the downloads are or if its just a trial on some of the stuff but its worth a try. Check it out here.

If you have a kindle you can download tons of free books. Which makes me want one. Unless I find a really cheap laptop on black friday. Hubby says I don't need a notebook but how easy would it be to have all my recipes right next to me while cooking or to be able to read these free books at night when I can't sleep. Or even if I could do things while sitting in the carpool line waiting for my daughter to get out of school. So many things to do. Anyway here is a free book Safely Home by Randy Alcorn. It has pretty good rates and one of those can't put it down books.

Everyday gamehouse gives away a free game. Check it out here.

Wow I really have not been on here forever. Well I had the baby on July 22, 2010. Her name is Emma Isabelle. She weighted 7lbs 15.2 oz. She is already 3 months old now. Everything is going well. I did have to get myself in a routine. Very different with 3 little ones. Katie is now 5 and in Kindergarten. Sara is 3 and we are trying to get her out of sucking her thumb with the no bite nail polish. Today is day 3 using it. Last night she decided to put her other thumb in her mouth. Katie's asthma is alot more controlled this year with the meds that she is on. Of course when she gets sick it acts up and she has to do treatments. I did find out that when she coughs the mucus up and swallows it back down is what is making her throw up. So I try to tell her to start spitting it out from now on. Emma is sick with her first cold that she caught from her bigger sisters. She has been coughing for 3 weeks now. The nose spray doesn't really help so today I decided to try some lemon juice with a little sugar and water. So far she is keeping it down so thats a good sign. I did read that lemon juice also helps with asthma also. By taking a teaspoon before each meal and right before going to sleep at night. Hey its worth a try. I rather give her that then all the meds they want to put in her. So next time she is sick thats what I will do.
