Live life to fullest!

I'm  super excited about my upcoming cruise! I remember dreaming about taking a cruise when I was very young. Am thinkng 12 or 13 years old!
My friend Nancy presented taking a girls cruise in April. She found us a ocean view room that was in our price range. She has been awesome in planning our excursions and keeping me on track each month.  Can you say we are 49 days away till we sail out of Galveston Texas on The Triumph!
Sometimes it helps to have a friend to make your dreams become reality!

Oilfield life

It is looking bad for us. They told Luther and his hands this was their last well.  Oh my goodness we will literally be in trouble.  We will struggle but we will make it somehow.

I know every one was so happy with the cheap gas prices but we knew what the outcome would be. Which is oil companies laying off workers. Sometimes real life just sucks. 

Happy Valentines Day!

Blake's Family

 

I love these photos! Am so glad Blake is happy with Jessica.  Of course that little man Logan has my heart as well!  I need to get with Jessica and have her make me about 6 pictures from this shoot so I can put up on wall!

I can remember when Blake was that young.  Seems just like yesterday..

couponing

I went to Homeland grocery store and got all this for only $34.31! It would have been $85.71 for a savings of $51.40 or a savings at 62%.  I am loving coupons!  This was my 2nd trip for the day.  When I went home I seen what I still needed and had to go back to get Kraft items, and Oreos and case of coke and some crackers and cereal. 
Have been to three local coupon classes and learn something new every time. I would love to learn how to save even more money each strip.

Couponing

Last night Mildred and Tammie and I went couponing!  We hadn't been in several weeks  so it was time to go get some supplies.
Our first stop was at Family Dollar.  We had the coupon $5 off of $25.  Which means total had to be $25 after coupons.  I spent $24.73 and saved $20.52 using coupons.  Then we went to Walgreens and my total was $81.29 and I actual only spent $37.69.  Which really was a awesome deal.  I had a coupon where I had to spend $30.00 before coupons and got 5000 points (which is like $5.00)!  Last on out trip was Homeland grocery. I just needed a few items. I was out of pocket $25.38 would have been $53.43.  Over all I was happy with my savings.

Couponing is really a good thing.  Yes it takes time and some research but a 50% savings or more is great!  If you have any questions please ask!!

Pen Pals 2015

 Am Enthusiastic about my penpals! The upcoming year promises to be exciting for me and my friends . I’ve written approximately 10 letter  that I will be sending out first thing in the morning. I’m always eager to connect with new penpals.  Would you like to exchange letters with me? If so, please leave a comment. 

I prefer rotten medium length letters, focusing on my daily activities and routines. This hobby serves as a self-care activity, allow me to slow down and thoughtfully, share my experiences with my penpals. With many years of experience,  having  started at the age of 13, I appreciate the diverse perspectives and insights from my penpals. I often embellish my envelopes and letters with stickers.  This year, I aim to refine my penpal connections, investing more time in meaningful relationships. I’ve come to realize that some penpals only write brief responses, make it challenging to establish a genuine connection. I’m seeking engaging letters that foster meaningful conversations and allow me to respond thoughtfully. I’m thrilled to express my passion for writing letters.
