Build A Bag

I have a pretty big capacity. I am a pretty good multi-tasker, I can tell what my kids and my husband are saying if they are talking at the same time, I can crop pictures while watching a chick flick. I have to tell you – you have not seen capacity until you meet Megan at Half Pint House.

Wife, mom of four, Homeschooler, writer for worldmag.com, and SEWER!!! (one who sews, not pipes for yuck) Anyway, she is making these precious zippy bags for some extra cash (talk about a Prov. 31 woman! “She maketh fine linen, and selleth it” (vs.4)) and you can get in on that right now! The fabrics are A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E and the bags would be great for holiday treats for your kids, keeping you Ipod safe in your purse, or just for toting the magnetic letters your son plays with constantly!

Head on over and check it out. The price listed includes shipping in the US – she’s taken care of it all!

Failure

It is January 4. THE FOURTH DAY OF THE YEAR, people!!! My excitement and fervor have been struck a nasty blow today. My desire/commitment to live the day God gives me and rejoice in it no matter the form it takes . . . today’s form has been stinky and I have stumbled, tripped, and fallen face down on the path of rejoicing.

In church on Sunday we heard the truth that the Lord’s Supper is not for those that say, “I have done what the Lord requires” but for those who say, “He has done what is required. I need thee, oh I need thee.” Well, that is a truth I can identify with today!

Back to the trenches. . .

My Mom – A Frugalista!

Yes, the frugal nut doesn’t fall far from the tree, folks.
My mom got these pictures for Bubba’s room – price tag read $83.75 each.
Seriously.
She paid $3.50 each.
WAY TO GO MOM!!!

On a similar note, I ended up saving $4052.78 recorded dollars last year due to sales and coupons. I am hoping to save even MORE this year by not going shopping so much!! Here’s to a debt free 2011!!!
