in your face...

well you know my last post...i have made peace with albertsons...i finally got my .15 cent toilet paper! not only did it but i also got
8-2lt of diet coke
8-boxes of cereal
4-Velveeta mac&cheese boxes
2-boxes of wheat thins
10-cans of tomatoes(for soups)
2- v8 splashes
2-24 packs of water
3- packages of toilet paper!

total 40 dollars...savings of 60 dollars! pretty awesome, i want to get better so if any one knows how to get it better PLEASE let me know! i LOVE watching the total drop from 100 dollars to 40 it is such a thrill!

well other than shopping we are house owners in 1 week! crazy...we are all moved out of Boise and it feels great but so sad at the same time!

my mother in law had a HUGE scare with cancer this last week. they found stage 2 melanoma under her thumb nail(only 5% of this cancer shows up here) so Monday they removed some of her left hand thumb and when they did the testing they said we think we have everything and we will let you know the results this week...well today she found out she is now FREE of cancer! As Rayo puts it now she can give us 1 1/2 thumbs up! haha I dont know what i would do with out her! she is so amazing and caring! So happy and grateful she is going to be ok!

seriously?

Well today is the last day to double coupons at Albertsons...so knowing they would be in short supply i didn't go in with high expectations but what happened next was so annoying...!
since we are in the middle of a move i don't want to buy food that i will have to haul around for the next two weeks but i found an amazing deal on toilet paper....15 cents a pack...who can resist that? so i break down and went shopping. i go and and they are out of the specific pack that i need to use my coupon...so like in Boise you can grab the closest price to it and they will lower the price and let you use your coupon(albertsons policy is to have the shelves stocked at all time) well i get up to the register with my six packages of toilet paper and they ring up at 5 dollars...well then i say your out...the ones i wanted were 2.15. she says snotty "I cant do that..." after telling her albertsons policy she gets frustrated and says well if you don't want to pay full price go someplace else....HOW RUDE IS THAT?!
She is VERY lucky i was angry and didn't have the patients to talk to her manager! need less to say i didn't get my 15 cent toilet paper...

hold on...here we go

well tomorrow morning it starts...Steve moves to Rock Springs and on Monday he starts his new job as a credit manager at wells fargo. it has been such a blessing and also on of the scariest things we have EVER done! steve moves up for 2 1/2 weeks before me, on our one year anniversary we sign on our house, and on the 7th of may we move in! it seems like life is in fast forward! We have felt from day one that we need to go but the little bumps that pop up are sure making it hard...like Steves car dieing...honestly you see junkers from like 25 years ago with 300,000 thousand miles on it..our little 12 year old saturn with 95,000 miles couldnt make it another 5 months? well luckily we have a thrid car that will are going to pick up tomorrow in Poki...but still it sucks...

Steve farted...it really stunk! he thought it was FUNNY... i didnt...

After steve farted we found a porta potty....while he pooped i played on the tractor....it was fun










On a happy note im done with school for a while. im transferring my hours to a school in rock springs. it will be fun to learn what the other school has to offer! and this past weekend my brother in law shawn took pictures of steve and I for our one year anniversary! they turned out soooo amazing!!

were is time going?!

life is pretty much crazy right now for us...Steve leaves Idaho in 12 days:-( trying to get things together to move...finding time to fit in friend time and still working and going to school it seems like life is flying by! but things are going well, the house we are buying is working out well, stupid bank needs everything in the world and then some to prove that we will be able to get the loan for it...its stupid! but worth it in the end!
I colored my hair again..haha i put in a darker color so it looks more natural and ill be able to go longer with out coloring my hair. this will be nice since most likely ill be waiting a while to go back to school so i can get in the good school.
and i went shopping again today with my coupons! and i saved $95! i didn't get it down to half price this week but pretty close...i should have spent 250 bucks but i only spent 150...more than i wanted to this week but next weeks there are no coupons...so it will pay off...or at least i like to think so:-)
