Just Scan It

Just Scan It

It is no secret that losing weight is one of my current goals. With added technology, my goal is even more achievable than ever. By using a barcode scanner online provided via my cell phone, I can instantly scan what foods I am eating and add to my food diary instead of taking the time to write every single item down in a notebook. Paper trails are no more which I am happy about. I’m sorry but I used to spend more time writing down my food diary than actually eating. That, my friends, is no fun. Technology is going to make my goal to lose weight a lot easier which I am totally thankful for.

Gift Ideas

Gift Ideas

I am at a loss for gift ideas for my mom and sister-in-law. I originally wanted to create them baskets full of little items that I know they would love such as homemade bath fizzies, seaweed powder baths, and a sugar scrub. I have most of the items on hand at home but for some reason I cannot find a container that I like to put everything into. I looked at the Dollar Tree, Michael’s, Wal-Mart, and even TJ Max with no luck. Where do you purchase baskets and such for gift ideas?

Christmas Deals

Christmas Deals

It is no secret that my husband and I are far from rich. Ever since we moved to a bigger house, our bills have been more expensive every month. Since the holidays are vastly approaching, we are trying to scramble to buy Christmas gifts. The thing I love about Christmas is the look on everyone’s faces when they open the perfect gift. Having a two year old to buy and play Santa for has threw a monkey wrench in our Christmas plans as far as buying for everyone else, too. So this year due to financial issues, we have decided to just buy for Grayson since that is all we can afford. Even though we are telling everyone that, I am going to get my mom a little something special for all the help she has given us these past few months. Thank God for pottery barn coupons because I found the perfect gift for her there and add the coupon in and I’m getting a really great deal! What are you doing this holiday season to save money?

Why Verizon, Why!?

Why Verizon, Why!?

For the past month and a half, my cell service has drastically gotten worse in our apartment. I used to have signal everywhere in our home. Now, when I am sitting at the computer I barely have service. It is very annoying when I am trying to hold a conversation and look up something on the internet at the same time. Because of this, I’ve been looking into getting a mobile cell booster for my phone. I figured this would be a great way to get better service without buying a whole new phone until I have the money to upgrade. I really want the iPhone but I plan on waiting until my birthday to purchase it for myself. I’m going on vacation in August so that took away my extra money! Hopefully on vacation I will have good service as well after my booster gets here!

Growing Pains

Growing Pains

We are certainly having growing pains in our because as Grayson grows, we find our apartment is packed to the max. Jonathan has also decided that his truck isn’t very useful for us anymore. He needs something that is extended cab to fit all of us comfortably plus anyone else who might be with us at the time as well. He has been looking at a lot of fuller size trucks and has picked his top three. With that said, the price of insurance is also a deciding factor. Thank God for www.wholesaleinsurance.net where we have found tons of cheap insurance policies that give us more bang for our buck. It has really helped decipher between which truck would be best for our family based upon insurance cost as well as how gas efficient the vehicle is as well.

Summer Accessories

Summer Accessories

One thing I love about going to school this summer semester is that I have dressed a lot better and nicer than I have any other semester. I don’t know what it is about summer styles but they suit my personality so well. I love to mix and match bright prints together. My husband assumed I was trying to impress someone, lol. Not hardly, hunny, I just like to look well. Plus, I have a lot more summer clothes than I do winter clothes. I also am crazy about the accessories for summer. I love wearing brightly colored necklaces and bracelets. I also am in love with my new jelly watch with rhinestones around the face of the watch. I swear, this is my all time favorite watch and I plan on getting a white and zebra one as well. The only downside is that my battery went out in my watch. I have to buy some button batteries to replace the watch battery but the Dollar Store by my house didn’t have any so that will have to wait until the weekend. I swear, if the Dollar Store doesn’t sell something I need throughout the week, I just don’t get it because I don’t have time to go anywhere else with my crazy schedule. I can’t wait to get the battery replaced so I can start wearing my watch again!
