Marvelous Monday!

I feel so good this morning! I am hoping the heat on the drive home (30 minutes, no ac, only 1 working window) does not zap my energy before I get home.
I have a new plan for today. Since I was able, with some help to keep the kitchen pretty well neat all I have to do is some minor pick up in there.


The doc has cleared me for exercise finally and so I want to begin my Walk Away the Pounds dvd again. I love this dvd. Leslie Sansone makes me feel as if she is in my living room and having fun with me. I need to lose 100 lbs give or take. I already lost 4! I have already worked to get junk out of our diet. Well other than homemade junk, but that is better for you in moderation than store bought fake food junk.

I also want to get back into couponing. Not for food items really, I have not seen many produce, meat or staples coupons.  I do however want to use them for toothpaste, toothbrushes and house hold stuff.

Some stuff I do at Sam's if I do not see a good price elsewhere, like bounty select a size paper towels, these or brawny are the only ones I will use. I am getting picky in my old age.

I am not sure I will ever need razors again I have a good size pile of them. However I am out of toothbrushes and low on mouth wash and such things.


OHOHOH! Before i forget. I am so excited. As some know I do rewards programs. Swagbucks mostly and some mypoints.  I was saving points and had $70 in Amazon GCs saved up. I was not sure what to do with them. I wanted 2 books to complete a set but felt bad spending $20 on that just for me. So instead I began looking at house stuff. It is my dream to some day finish my kitchen in red and white, 50's diner style. I keep looking for red or red and white dishes. Target had some cute square ones, but they are plastic. We discovered they also are not microwaveable. So we bought some red round ones that are... so I have 2 sets of red dishes. Both plastic and I really do not like plastic dishes. They make me feel like I am only using them temporarily, as toys or something.

So anyway I went to searching kitchen things on amazon and I found cafe dishes. These are perfect! After showing them to my Beloved he said order, so I did! They should arrive here Wednesday! I am totally jazzed! I LOVE Corelle. All I could find local with red was red and black. My home is dark enough with out black dishes.


The best part was, I paid for it completely with my rewards programs! I paid not one cent in real money. Just a bit of time for doing stuff I do anyway. I do a lot of googling, so I use the SW search or the myp search. I admit I search the myp one quick over a couple days cuz it just does not pay fast, but eventually it adds up! The sw one pays faster, and the prizes are cheaper points wise (ex a $25 to amazon at myp is 3850 points, to get 5 $5 amazon gc from Sw is 2250.) Plus the mypoints one is this nasty yellow orange color that is hard to read. So I usually do my 30 searches there for my 70 points in an evening or 2 while using Sw for my real searches.


Still it will eventually add up to more free stuff from Amazon!

Well I best get finished getting ready for work.
Have an awesome day y'all!
