My Week

Last week was a busy week but oh, so good!  

Monday, it couldn't decide what to do!  Rain, be cloudy, be sunny...but, oh the rainbows!  What a nice start to the week. :)

Summer got an earache around 11pm Sunday night so it was off to Urgent Care Monday morning.

Belle had her appointment to be groomed as well on Monday.  I told you she was pretty mangy!  LOL!


I have a goal of going couponing once a week.  This was last week's deals.  I wanted to stock up my favorite toilet paper - which is the middle one - Scott's 1,000 sheet rolls in the blue package.  I went to two CVS's and I only found three.  So I settled for the extra soft TP and a package of paper towels.  They come out to $4.79 each.  (Normally, the blues are $9.99 at Wal-Mart/$11.99 at CVS.)  
Why do I love the blue Scott brand?  It is the ONLY toilet paper I have found that we don't go through like crazy!  Six people - five who are girls - you use a lot of TP.  It lasts and lasts and I am not running to the store every two days for more TP. :)


I received this sweet gift from my friend, Megan - a rose, card and a Starbucks card. :)


Friday was Day 120 of school.  That means turning in the second set of DVD's and starting on our last set for the school year!


We also got our free personal pan pizzas for the reading program from Pizza Hut.  Yum!  So good!  Also, we went to Steak and Shake during Happy Hour (half off milkshakes!!) and using a coupon I had, we got four milkshakes for $2.13!  Double yum!
The girls got to take their food home and enjoy it while we went to the Couples Retreat.


I love mornings and Saturday was such a beautiful sunrise!




A gift from my Secret Sister at church. :)


For this week, I already went couponing yesterday. :)  The cereals, toothbrushes, dish soap were all $.99 each.  The Revlon mascara and liquid eyeliner was $1.04 each!  (Regularly $9.49 each!)


Looks like a wonderful week weather-wise!  I hope you have a great week!

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."  Psalm 27
