Vjumpstart - wow, it sounds like you've had a busy week! What you need is some time for yourself! I bet your kids had a wonderful time, the fair, rides, animals and seeing their grandma. Lots of good memories for them.

Went down to our Metroparks for a sunset drive of course thats probaly not to frugal with the price of gas but a beautiful drive it was!
Tommorow were going to my grandmothers for a picnic and on Monday were going to my dads for his b-day so I dont have to cook for the next two years. Thats frugal!
There probaly wont be any coupons in tommorows paper boo hoo! But then next week will probaly be lots to look forward to.

We were not frugal yesterday. We took my Mom to the Olive Garden. She had never been there and DH loves letting her try new places to eat. They sure do have yummy food. Then we took the kids to the drive-in. They had such a fun day so I guess it was worth it.

Georgieanna - yup, I'm really glad dh and ds found something they can do together. They were out there until late last night.
I'm going to make bread today, I need to give some to a friend. I'm also hoping to finish reading a library book today, that's frugal!

Vanilla Pudding and Applesauce Nut Bread this morning. Going to make some chicken cup meals for dd's lunches. Placing them in the freezer so I can just pop them out.
Going to grocery store to grab some more eggs...can get large eggs for .89 cents. Going to grab these new Delmonte Fruit cups for dd for .99 cents...maybe see if they have any cornstarch that's cheap, if not. Won't get right now.
Got to wash up clothes and get ready for dd's birthday. I saved the colorful comic strips from the Sunday Paper for dd's bday gift.
Going to take the Feral Kittens to the Shelter so they can hopefully be tamed and find a home. It's frugal for me...sad to say...because I can concentrate on feeding my 4 domesticated cats/kittens. At least I didn't let them die and I'm taking them to someone who can care for them better than I.
Oh, we finally got a Walmart sales paper in our Sunday Paper. Maybe this week I can go get another cordless phone since I had to take the other back. It's on sale for $13, just a few cents more than the last time it was on sale. But, I am sick of being tied to the wall via the phone, so a few pennies more will be worth it!
