While Decluttering my house this week, I ran across some of my old text books from college. I was going to throw them in the garage sale tomorrow, but decided to see if I could find a buy back site first. Amazon is giving me a gift card worth $102.00 for them!!! I probably would have walked away...

DH was TDY in the states for a bit. He was in the midwest and the south. When he went to stores-even Walmart- he was flabergasted by the prices. My DH doesn't grocery shop so he's not really familiar with prices, but he noticed how expensive everything was in civilian stores. I know there...

My daughter had to do a "rock project" for her science class and of course waited until the last minute to tell me so that meant we couldn't do a kick butt volcano. Instead we made treasure rocks with a bouncy ball hidden inside for each of her classmates to break open :) This recipe costs a...

My hubby and son just got back from Tuscon.. My hubby is a rock/mineral collector and one of the reasons he went to Tuscon was they have the biggest rock/mineral show in the country.. Well, he spent some $$$ there and as I watched him walking from the plane last night, he was struggling with...

I went with my son to the AmVet store this past week and we hit the motherlode. I got these brand new looking winter jackets for my sons each were around $12. My son loved his when we got home and son #2 was delighted with his. I got some winter shirts for son #2 and sweatshirts. I was so...

OK - I have to shamelessly brag. Yay for DD!!! She is having a great couple of weeks. The tri-county area we live in is called "The River Region". Two weeks ago she was one of only five youth to be nominated for the River Region's Youth Volunteer of the Year. Last week she was elected Student...

A couple of months ago I bought 2 train sets off of her. I'm ashamed to say I just now pulled them out of the box in anticipation of Easter Baskets. These sets are SOOO nice and she gave me a steal of a deal on them. My little boy is going to be crazy excited to get them :) Thanks you...

You are absolutely not going to believe this - even though I had the evidence right in my hands!! Crafty Pam found, purchased and sent me 3 - yep, count them, 3 toothbrushes all with holes in the ends of the handles!! Don't know where she found them - may have to wait until she returns from...

So, I've been looking for bunkbeds for my girls for about 3 months now, I have posted an add in my freecycle and no luck so far! Last night a few gals in town needed a phone and an old webcam and some board games, I have all of those things so i will be taking them into town Friday to give to...

Memorabilia rocks his bottom line George Harrison called his 1970 solo album All Things Must Pass. But that doesn't appear to be true for autographs and other ...

There is no spell police here! After spending so much time on the net, I hate when people try to correct your grammar and make a big issue of it. (when you still know they can read it) I sometimes look back at my post and laugh because I messed up or maybe I was toooo tired to look the word...

Was it an automatic update at midnite? I was here, there, came back and it was different :idea:

A little story... Last summer, I was taking a long weekend by myself up in Maine at Wells Beach. I was going through an emotional time dealing with my ex-husband and in a rebound relationship that just wasn't working for me (same guy I recently said goodbye too.) I had my journal with me and...
