    Thumbs up Its been an AWESOME Freecycle/Freeshare week!

    Wow what an awesome week indeed. I posted a couple of wants this week. All of my boys are reading Harry Potter right now but we have 1 set of the books. They all want to start @ the same time so...I requested HP books. I am needing to work on projects to keep me busy in order to control the depression and anxiety so I also asked for any craft type stuff. Well...I got between 3 people all but book 6 of the HP collection and the 1 lady who gave me 5 and 7 said her brother has her other book but will call me when he returns it!! Probably book 6. I just went and picked up 5 bags of various things!! I got:
    a bag of feathers and dream catcher hoops(various sizes
    foam sticker #s,letters and animals
    2 round mirrors and a candle plate
    a few xmas ornaments
    a big stack of scrapbook paper
    a lrg ziplock bag FULL of number and letter stickers
    ribbon,lace and trim
    15 yards of pearl type beading for trim
    a bag of coin roll papers
    small containers(film,pills and like empty glitter jars)
    She said she hasn't gone thru her beads yet but will probably be emailing me soon with more!!! I will post a pic of the craft haul tomorrow! I am so happy!!

    Great going - cannot wait to see what you create!!

    Wow just what you need that others had. That is what freecycle is all about.

    Way to Go! Enjoy you crafts and quietly reading boys.

    Recently I gave away all our board games after checking with my daughters first. They went to a family of 4 children for Christmas presents whose parents have lost their jobs. It was so much more rewarding than giving to Goodwill as I usually do. I have met some of the nicest people on Freecycle both when I give things away and when I receive them.

    I'm so glad you have received from it! Let the cycle continue for all of us!

    Challenges for 2012:
    2012 Grocery Budget Reduction Challenge- $100 a month. (down from $150) Hm, might be too low.
    Electric Usage Challenge (doing well, under $70 most months)
    Yah, I suck at this money stuff, I know. That's why I'm here.
