Movie to Avoid

I went out tonight with my dear friend Jennifer. Her husband graduates in two weeks and they are moving to Mississippi pretty immediately. Instead of facing the sadness head on, an evening watching Jennifer Garner and Matthew M. seemed a better use of time and emotional energy. And ending the evening at the Cheesecake Factory couldn’t hurt, right?

Well, we were SO WRONG! I am sad to say it, but I disliked this movie immensely! The movie is crass and repeatedly offensive. Matthew plays the same guy from his other films just crasser. Jennifer Garner plays the good girl, gets to cry a couple times (she is a GREAT crier), and basically does “13 Going on 30” part 2. Michael Douglas provides nothing but offensiveness.

And I didn’t even get cheesecake at the Cheesecake Factory.

So, I would suggest you choose another film if the theatre is calling to you. Actually, since it was opening night, we were asked to fill out review cards and I gave the film a “D” on the scale from A to F – so there you go.

Just rent “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” or “13 Going on 30” – you get to see these two thespians acting and don’t have to shake your head!!!

Snugglin

This week Bubba has been sleeping later in the morning. I don’t understand it, but I don’t question it! It has made for some sweet moments together as he finally wakes up and I get to go in to greet him.

Early in the week I went in and “chatted” with him and then his sisters joined us. I was concerned about how this was going to affect our little man, but he handled them in stride and some sibling snugglin‘ ensued.

You can see he looked a bit uncomfortable at first:


Then he relaxed:

Another Help – jackieb, this is for you!

If any of you have joined me in my love for ebay couponing, I have an additional tool for you. The site mygrocerydeals.com allows you to search grocery stores in your area to see the sales that week. This is a useful tool BUT the real fun starts when you search for a SPECIFIC ITEM and they list the deals at your local stores.

So, let’s say you have gotten 20 coupons off Ebay for $1/1 bag of Green Giant steamfresh broccoli. You can go to mygrocerydeals.com and search for “Green Giant” and a list will be generated for you showing the items and prices in all the local stores you have designated. SO COOL.

Today I am planning to head to Target for dishwasher detergent at $.50 a box!!!
