I am very excited that tomorrow is Friday! Tomorrow is orientation at Southern. I will be working, but I will be able to take an extended lunch so I can go and be apart of the family luncheon with Ethan!
It's been a great week and I have received some goodies from home that I thought I would share with you!
Coupons! I have NO idea what I am doing. I figured I would just dive it and hopefully I won't sink. I got a few Sunday papers and a binder. I cut out all my coupons and have separated them and that is about as far as I have gotten. I know of a few good blogs and I am hoping to sit down this weekend and read over them. I really wish I have someone who could sit down with me, show me how to find the deals and then go shopping with me, but that would be way to simple :) I think I can figure it out but I know it will take time. Ps. Do any of you know of a good way to organize my binder and what I can find the supplies to do it with?
It doesn't look like much, but it is a start!
Today I received a package from my sister Apryl! Look what she sent me!
I love this picture of me with my sisters! This was taken on Easter!
On Wednesday I received a package from the Rollins clan!
I love the updated picture of my nephew James, The picture he drew for Ethan and I, and dish rags!
Our apartment complex hosts a food bank for the people in our community once a month. The receptionist in the office told us that whatever food doesn't get taken gets thrown away and that we should come and try it out. So this past tuesday I headed down to the commons room by the apartment front office and waited my turn. There is a sign up that happens prior to, so I waited for my number to be called. It was very well organized and I came home with some extra food!
Ethan and I weren't going to go since we have been blessed and are able to buy our own groceries, but after finding out that it gets thrown away if people don't take it we would participate in it. I am really glad we did. I am hoping to volunteer at it next go round.
I hope that everyone has a great Friday and I great weekend! Ta-ta for now!
