Freaky Frugalite

She insists on squeezing into this thing. How she manages to sleep in it, I’ll never know.

:frolic: Woo hoooo!!! I have the day off! The first in a long time! OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH what will I DO today? Should I vacuum… yeah, I should. Should I do laundry?? … definitely. Catch up on the exploding dust bunny population? Clean my tornado-stricken desk or bookshelf? Maybe even install the flatbed scanner and the software […]

I just LOVE my new cast iron sink! But the thing stains SO easily and it’s such a pain to clean. So when the dudes from Greased Lightning took pity on me and offered to send me a free bottle of their cleanser, I jumped at the chance. See how pitiful my sink is. Be […]

The other day, I prepared spaghetti for dinner. As I was waiting for the big stockpot of water to boil, I wrested open the box of “Thin Spaghetti” and placed it on the counter. Being a mom, I then rushed off to accomplish a billion other jobs in the meantime. A minute or two later, […]

Time to start off the week with a meme! I used to get these done Sunday night for early posting on Monday, but I’ve developed a habit where O don’t blog or do anything else Sunday night. It’s very relaxing. 🙂 Questions: 1. Monday’s are _________? Terrific! I love Mondays. I like the fresh start […]

Ugh, I am SO horrible with memes. I just never remember! Combine that will my propensity to mix up the days…. I woke up thinking today is Saturday. It’s really tough to keep remembering that it’s Friday today… that I have to work today…. *sigh* lol :brudder: Well, I like this meme and here’s hoping […]

… and it’s raining (what’s new)…. and I forgot to thaw the post roast. 🙁 It would have been a perfect day for pot roast. Oh well. I have been living at my house for 14 years. For the FIRST time, I got a vision for the home decorating scheme. Yeah, I’m a late bloomer, […]
