Private Practice is coming on Thursday October 1. Its a spin off of grey's if you haven't seen it yet. It is a pretty good show and I can't wait to see what happens.

I still haven't watched greys anatomy from last week b/c my mom asked me to record it so I just thought I would wait but its calling my name.

There will be a kids workshop this Saturday at the Home Depot. They will build a Firehouse bank. You may even get some good coupons for the store.

What wonderful weather there was yesterday. It almost made me believe that it would stay that way for a couple of days until I woke up with a horrible headache due to allergies.

Tomorrow is Thursday don't forget to log on to old navy and have a chance to snag a coupon. If your lucky enough and fast enough to get one of the good ones good for you. If you have not done it before go to the website and see how it works. It changes but just to get an idea of how it will work day of. The good coupons run out very fast.

FREE PRINTABLE GREETING CARDS very cute. Just in time for a little boys birthday from Katie's class. She hangs out with this little boy name Alex so this would be perfect.

Not everyone goes to my facebook page but this past week, I had to get a new brake tag. I also needed gas and Sammy needed shoes for work so we decided to go do it all at once. We went to Ray's by the circle in Bridge City use to be Landry's. Anyway Sammy gets out and this nasty looking guy comes up and starts writing the numbers from the brake tag down and he starts picking his nose on my windshield. Oh almost forgot when we pulled up Sara said She is scary. His shirt was white at the top but black at the bottom with all kind of stains. Anyway he sits in the car. Closes the door and starts backing up. My eyes got big having never seen this before he drives around the parking lot. Now this man could of just taken off with us in there and Sammy would of been just standing by the building. This guys BO was so bad I was trying to hold my breath but at the end when he was getting out of the car I started gagging. His smell stuck in the car for a while even after he got out. He did pick his nose one other time. So if you need a brake tag and want someone professional don't go there. Ok so he didn't look like the guy in the picture up top but close.

This week is flying by. Sara had a second x-ray and the money is out. Woohoo a very big load off my shoulders. When I was picking Katie up from school on Monday I realized I was driving around with an expired break tag. I don't think to check lol. So today we are off to get that taken care of and buy hubby some new work shoes.

Alot of upcoming shows I want to watch. I know I watch too much TV but when the kids are asleep or not here with my DVR I can catch up on my shows. Its nice.
Modern Family is coming on tonight its new and it looks like it would be pretty funny. Glad they are finally putting something on Wednesday nights. ABC 9/8c.
Eastwick is also coming on tonight. Its about witches. I liked watching Charmed so I figured that this would be something like that maybe a bit better. On ABC 10/9c.
Tomorrow Grey's Anatomy is back. I can't wait to see what happens. Will Izzy really go or will some miracle bring her back and will she be the same? I have heard they were writing her off but we shall she.
Ghost Whisperer is back this Friday. I love this show. It took a turn for the worse when they killed off Jim and brought this other character in but now its starting to get better. They have a baby on the way and I can't see what kind of ghost will come this season.
Medium another on of my favorites will come on this Friday with its new season. I have been watching some of the old ones that comes on lifetime that I actually never seen so its interesting. I guess sometimes I wish I could contact spirits. I wouldn't want to see the bad, only the good.

Thursday don't forget about old navy's website. I really need one of these so I hope I don't forget. I hope I get one before it turns too cold. If not I will just have to pay full price or even get a small discount. If this is your first time go get some practice now. You have to actually move things around for a coupon to pop up. Good Luck.

I got an email from Youdata. They put .09 in my paypal account. No its not much and it will never pay my bills but its nice to have some money to play with. Every little cent adds up. Youdata is an easy program. You download their program for your desktop and about once a week they have new ads on it. Click reload, reveal and your done. No pop ups to other sites. Its very simple. If you collect .10 each week for a year you could make about $4.8. Like I said it won't pay the bills but once the program starts getting more recongized it would be worth it. They pay you at the end of every week, without asking them to. Join now you have nothing to lose b/c its free to sign up.

Yesterday I had a good day at walgreens. I went to pick up the Triaminic grape flavor cold and cough. You buy 2/$10 use the coupon from the store. You have to ask for the coupons in the Pharmacy the coupons are $2/1 it will take off a total of $4 since you get 2. After you check out you not only get 1 $5 RR but you get another one for $5. Math on it. 2 for $10 - $4 coupon= $6 out of pocket get back $10 in register rewards = $4 money maker. They are paying you to take these home and with the kids being sick it is awesome to get these for that price.
I also picked up the true north nut clusters. They are $3 -$1 printable coupon = $2 out of pocket. Get back $3 in register rewards and a mail in rebate is on the bag. So you will also make money on this one. Hubby claimed those. They are pretty good but I would not pay $3 for them.

Just in case I don't get on tomorrow. The new season of bones starts Thursday night. Last season I think it ended with them in bed together so it will be interesting to see what happens.
Also Fringe new season starts Thursday night. Crazy things happen on this show.

I was able to watch One Tree Hill off my DVR yesterday. I am confused and shocked. Where are Peyton and Lucas? They got married and had the baby at the end of last season.
Fall is right around the corner. It's one of my favorite seasons. The beautiful colors of the leaves and trees. The sound of the leaves crunching under our feet. The cool breezes we have now and then. Its not too hot and its not too cold. Pumpkins and halloween, dressing up, football. I can't wait.

Sunday September 13, 2009

What a nasty weekend it has been with all this rain. At least it has saved us from having to water our garden. Sammy did have to tie the okra plants back up and he picked a bag full. So exciting when we get things from the garden. Nothing too much that is new around here. Katie still hates school. Poor thing. I hope it does get better. I hear that she likes to talk alot. Today is Sunday which means football, baking, coupons and new sale ads. I haven't really been paying attention to whats coming up like I use to. Since it has been raining I haven't gone dumpster diving so I am almost caught up on my coupons.
I know I won't be able to get on tomorrow but I wanted to remind everyone. The new season of One Tree Hill comes on Monday September 14, 2009
