Black Friday

Leave a Comment

I fucking hate working retail.  We don’t get Black Friday off!  So I got up at 3:30 am to get ready for work.  I had to be in at 4:45 AM.  Totally sucks.  I’m bitter. Shut up.  I got to work 10 min early.  Hey “guests” were already there.  Wouldn’t you rather sleep than wait outside in the freaken cold just to get a $19.99 dvr! COME on!

After work I did do a little shopping.  I got some early CHristmas shopping. And I bought us a much needed table cloth.  I shopped for Lizzy, hubby, my niece, my sister-in-law.  Nice things for a good price.  And I didn’t have to run or trample anybody to get it.

Ok im out.  Time to get a better job.

I’m in the mood!

Leave a Comment

I wrote this before my baby poo entry. Don’t know why it didn’t get published. At least if was saved.  Thanks WP!

ooooooooh its been a LONG time.  But I got lots on my mind.  Instead of lying in bed with my thought racing until the break of dawn I said.  Hey lets sleep at night and blog again. hmm I don’t know.

I’m so excited for the holidays.  I mean I miss my family tons but I plan to make my holidays enjoyable.  And moms coming down here for xmas! yay!  Just mom though.   This Thanksgiving I’m sort of hosting my first Thanksgiving.  I say sort of because its not gonna be on Thanksgiving day.  Its gonna be during the week after the actual holiday.  For Thanksgiving we are going to Alex’s Uncles house Serg.  I kinda hate those get togethers.  Its just that I feel like an alien ANY time I am in the presence of them.  Any of them.  Shit! But whatever.  I planned to buy a brand new outfit to hopefully make me feel less alien.  But OUR dinner I’m preparing Turkery, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green bean cassarole (1st time making this), Rhodes bread (always Rhodes!!), gravy and cranberry salad.  Soo yummy!  I just hope my food taste good.  Especially since my inlaws are coming over that night.  Since this is my first time I have to manage my time just right.  I don’t want to spend the entire day in the kitchen cooking and then cleaning! But I’m excited to have them over to our house.  It’ll be the first social dinner we’ve had since we got this house.   I have to get the house ready too.  We still got boxes in the living room.  I know so getto right. Tonight I went to walmart to this week groceries and thanksgiving dinner food.  Whooo spend over $100 yall! wtf! Thats with coupons.  I want to get some flowers and xmas decoration up in here too.  Its soo bland with the green walls and no picture.  But not for long!

It’s about baby poo

Leave a Comment

I have been going crazy with my baby.  I hold her and we both cry because I can’t seem to do anything!  She has gotten scared of going poo. basically she is holding it.  She squeezes her little but so tight and gets all rigid.  She gets all red and teary eyed.  It s horrible.  I tell her to let it go but she is so scared.  And now on top of that she’s developed  a horrible rash that is making things worse.  She won’t let me apply the diaper rash ointment. She screams and cries and begs me not to!!  She won’t sit, hardly walks, doesn’t play, hardly eats, has a fever. Its been two days now.  She did poo a little yesterday but she is still needing to go. Its so heartwreching not to be able to do anything about it.  Tmrw I’m calling her doctor and hopefully she can suggest something! My poor baby is in pain and I feel so useless.

Just did an AMAZING transaction at Walgreens.  This week I LOVE them!!

I got all this H.I.P make up for Free!! Plus a FREE scrapbook photo.   After my cashier rang it all up it came out to $29 plus tax. I paid with 5 (five) $2/1 H.I.P. Q and used a $4 RR from a previous transaction. Out of pocket I paid $15 plus tax.  I completely forgot about the buy $25 get $5 Register Reward deal.  So I got not only a $5 RR but another RR for $10 off  ANY L’oreal product!!  Totally unaware!

Super Savings Saturday

Leave a Comment

Another bragging photo

I can’t help it!

I was so happy tonight when I walked into Albertsons and discovered that they had restocked most of thier sale stuff!  You couldn’t imagine my HAPPY surprise!!

I’m such a dork!

I ended up doing 3 seperate transactions.  After catalinas and coupons I spent about $4 for all this.  I didn’t calculate how much all this stuff is actually worth because I’m too tired but I would say its not less than $70 worth considering Albertsons highly inflated prices. (highest in Idaho actually) So i’m super proud of myself for this.  Lucky I had such a huge coupon collection to chose from! Love my binder!

My loot:

  • 8 bottles of All Laundry detergent (2 $7)
  •  3 Betty Crocker cookie pouches (3 $5)
  •  3 Betty Crocker Warm Delights (3 $5)
  • 4 Best foods Real Mayo (2 $5)
  •  5 cartons of Q tips (2 $5)
  •  5 Nature Valley Granola nut clusters (2 $5)
  • 4 Phillsbury Simply cookie dough (2 $5)
  • 3 four packs of Yoplait Yogurt (3 $5)
  • 2 six packs Klondike icecream bars (2 $5)

Mommy needs to cry

1 Comment

I needed a good cry.  I’m so happy that Alex was there to help me through it.  I know its selfish of me to use him that way but I can’t help it.  I don’t have anybody but my family and I don’t want any drama.  I have been loopy with my meds and when that happens I get this sensation or feeling deep in my gut to cry.  Like a desperation of sorts and I just can’t contain it any longer.  So I knew I was on the verge and I felt like shit. I crawled into my bed. “I am crying for a reason?”  So I called my babys father and I told him how I was feeling.  I cried and he listened to my desperation.  It was 2 a.m. his time.  “I don’t know why but I need to cry! I have to get this out.  No I’m ok really, Yes the baby is fine she is here sleeping right next to me. Just let me cry please.  You know I get this way sometimes.  Talk me through it ok?”  And he did.  I cried then I laughed then I cried again.  Is that hysteria.  I’m I crazy??  Besides me not talking my medicine right, I can’t help but feel that it could be something else.  It feels like something bad is about to happen.  Normally I can shake it right off.  I never lasts more than a few hours.  Distracting helps.  Its been a rough week.  It started out with me taking baby girl to the ER on Saturday.  She’s not been eating, drinking.  She was throwing up and then had diareah.  I noticed she lost weight.  My poor baby.  The morning I took her to the ER she slept in until 11:30!! And she had purple lips.  At first I thought it was just my imagination but mom could see it too.  Then my parents are having problems.  Then theres Alex telling me he may have a blood disease, which of course all I can hear is that maybe my baby could be sick from that too!  My schedule changed a lot due to my sister coming into town. Tomorrow we are going camping and I always stress out when I need to start packing!  I know I’m sounding so anal.  I’m not really.

I think it was just so many things to deal with this week that has me feeling this way.  That and my medicine. Hopefully things change by tomorrow.  Maybe the mountains can bring me peace.

My sister is finally here! I freaken love her to death.  She is my best friend and we are gonna have so much fun together. She’s here for the next 20 days.  OH how I wish I lived in TEXAS with her.  Seeing her makes me ache for texas.  I’m not even from Texas. OMG

zoo-boise

Tomorrow we are planning to go to the Boise Zoo.  Finally mija is gonna see the animals.  I have been waiting until my sis came so that we could experience her first zoo trip together.  She is gonna love it I just know it.  ITs also my bros Alex’s b day. 22 man. I am OLD. lol  So to celebrate we are all having dinner together.  Our whole family will be together aww.  We are thinking either Johnny Carinos or Goodwood BBQ for dinner.

Fair-2007

The CC fair is gonna start on the 23rd of this month which i am super super excited about.  I’m so in the mood for fairs!  THe outdoors, the sun, the food, the shows, the animals, country music, carnival rides, crowds, the hoochie mamas, the pinche vatos.  I love it all.  I freaken love summer.

a_nose_stud_info

Gonna get my nose pierced.  Can’t wait. Just a little stud. I wanted to get the Monroe but hmm I think we’ll start off with something low key.  Nothing to drastic.  I hear the nose piercing hurts so i’m scared of that. I don’t like pain. or crying in front of strangers. lol.  I’m so glad that I have a job that allows piercings.  THe last time I got my eye brow pierced (like 10 years ago) my job made me remove it.  Bastards. But CW is so cool about that.  Another great reason I love my job.

We are going camping in two weeks.  Havn’t camped in like YEARS.  I’m so excited.  I already bought my tent. Alls I need is a camp chair.  IT’ll be the first time for Lizzy of course.  I’m nervous of that but only because I don’t know how she is going to behave.  I mean like will she sleep at night?  I can’t sleep.  I get scared of all the noises and the freaken cold in the wee hours of the morning.  And I can’t stand the mosquitos and the freaken outhouses uff!  But I love the fires, the relaxing aspect, being in the outdoors you feel so much more connected to God. The smores OMG! The good outweights the bad for sure.  Its all part of the experience.

WTF! Pinche birds.  Ya’ll are on my turf! Its MY backyard and HELLO! who told you to build your nest right next to the patio doors?  Its not my fault you’re stupid.  ANd I’m not EVEN trying to hurt your babies.  I’m not cruel to animals even though I have a phobia of cats, I wouln’t kill them or hurt the kittys.  Let me just have my BBQ, eat my damn meat (No I don’t consider eating cow cruelty to animals, they are not considered animals, its food to humans ok!)

2. Buy free Deoderant at Target. 

Got some good deals at Target this afternoon.  I scored some free deoderant (3 full size).  Using coupons.  Only thing is that they are mens Degree Deo.  Don’t exactly have a man in my life I could give these too but free nonetheless!  (ooh my bro’s b day is next month!) The womens degree was also a good deal but I forgot to print more target coupons. Hey there’s always tommorw!  I also got some cheap .50 Ziplock baggies and .50 Ego Bakeshop goodies.  I also bought a plastic container to store all my free stuff I’ve accumalated for the past 3 months or so.

3. Get a hair cut.
