Freaky Frugalite

Springtime! It’s here! Oh, ignore all that mud and rain and frigid nighttime temperatures– there’s green out there! While shopping yesterday, the daughter and I spotted a plethora of limousines in town. It seems that every year, as soon as the snow is gone, everybody races out of their winter-weary homes to get married or [...]

Look what we discovered crawling around our yard after the flood. It was a nice surprise. Today’s local news stories are loaded with stories about the yesterday’s flooding. Some folks even found a fish in their yard. I guess the 9 inches of rain we’ve received for the month of April was too much for [...]

This is one cool website! It’s called Pikimal.com. Strange name, I know. I have no idea where they got that name. But I love the idea behind the websites. It’s a “shopping decision” website.

Happy Resurrection Day! Even after 2,000 years, Jesus the Messiah is still greatly loved… and greatly scorned. “I know men and I tell you that Jesus Christ is no mere man. Between Him and every other person in the world there is no possible term of comparison. Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and I have founded empires. [...]

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of PBM Products for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. I thank God every day that my four kids are out of diapers and off baby food. MAN oh man, that stuff was expensive. I have seen prices go up and up, and I wonder [...]

Can you believe it will be MAY soon? The calendar is chugging along, but spring is dragging its feet. As of tonight, we are still running the heaters. :-p Well, take heart, my dears. Spring WILL come. It always has! And Mother’s Day is right around the corner, too. Do you have any plans for [...]
