One of those days..

I would've been happy lying in bed all day with Asher in my pajama's! Of course it's the one day I'm booked solid with work. Guess I should at least put a bra on... Last night we decided to pull out a DVD to watch with Asher before bed. Initially we thought we'd stop it halfway through to finish tonight, but wouldn't you know it that kid sat through the whole thing! Asher loved it! Now all he talks about is "Buddy the Elf." When he woke up he said he wants to watch it again. In other news, I saved a bunch of money on my.............triple play plan :) Comcast is practically giving away their service in order to get their customers back. Which works for me, from what I understand they have improved all the problems and have fantastic prices. As a result we're getting EVERYTHING for $40 less than getting half of everything and a $300 credit on our account. That means instead of paying for our bill, we can pay off the last bill and the cancellatio...

Social Media

I don't know if anyone else has noticed but my posts seem to generate a lot of contention and abrasive comments. Especially from people I don't expect! Honestly the things I post are not controversial! One time I asked where to buy "Fifty Shades of Grey." Another time I posted that my husband and I were looking into becoming 'puppy parents' and excited about it. Maybe people don't like that I never post a depressing status and feel like my facebook needs more negativity. Beware, if I don't like what you posted, I WILL delete it. That being said I've decided not to post much anymore. Like I just decided this week. So for a few days now I have not produced any statuses or check-in's. I don't want people to judge where I've been or what I'm doing. I'm officially "offline" at all times. I have had a friend who always deleted everything on her wall and now I understand why! Well that's what I have to say for today...

Day of Rest

Today has felt like the longest day I've had in a very long time. Asher woke up and told me he had a special dream. He said Jesus was in his dream and told "the man" to go and he did. I was so filled with joy when my baby told me Jesus visited him! Asher has been developing a relationship with Jesus this last week or so, talking with him and praying. He pretends with Jesus that they go to heaven and get freeze pops :) We went to church today and it was one of those, I'd rather stay home and be productive days. Of course everyone knows those are the days you're really supposed to be in church! Well today was no exception. It started off fairly normal with the exception of the presence of God being a bit more tangible than normal. I found myself getting distracted with my own thoughts until Pastor Jason bound the spirit of distractions and came against them. Instantly I was completely focused on worshipping my King. It was great! Well Pastor Jason gave a wonde...

My Husband

So yesterday my 10 year old sister says something in reference to "my sister's husband." My first thought was I guess she doesn't realize that Tim is her Brother in Law. My second thought was a little giggle at hearing him being called my husband. I hope I never get used to that. The same sister later told me that she didn't know I would find someone as crazy as me to marry and that Tim is perfect for me. Even though it was my little sister, it still made me smile to hear someone thinks he's perfect for me. All of this led me to this rave about my HUSBAND :) My husband works so hard to provide for us but not just at work. Tim comes home from working hard all day and the first thing he does is scoops Asher up, hugs and kisses him and proceeds to play chase and tickle all over the house. Then I'm next. No matter how tired he is he still helps me with whatever needs to be done to get dinner on the table and cleaned up and Asher taken care of. I have ne...

Cheap or Thrifty?

I've decided that I would much rather get an extremely good deal on something than to get it for free.. I know it's odd but I like to feel like I earned/paid for it but didn't break the bank. Here's where I go for all my deals: bradsdeals.com groupon.com savology.com livingsocial.com 1saleday.com dealfind.com shadora.com restaurant.com icemonkey.com plumdistrict.com dailysteals.com discountmags.com vistaprint.com I love shopping at Ollie's, Ross, Marshalls, TJ Max and places like that! But I still like to have a coupon if I can! I just got the Entertainment 2012 book for $7 and plan to not go anywhere that I don't have a coupon for! Tim suggested we start Christmas shopping and I'm so excited because I've found even more ways to save money than last year! That being said, I'm NOT cheap. I will spend money on quality items! I also appreciate a good tip so I am a good tipper :)
