CVS has their French's Mustard and Frank's Hot Sauce on sale for only $1.00 ... after the coupons above, they are only 50cents each.
When I find things like this on sale, I stock up ... in this case I could only get 4 of each, but we don't use much of it. This saves me from having to buy mustard or hot sauce for at least a year. Which helps save on money...
How?
I got it on sale and used q's with it, got the best price possible.
I won't have to buy it for a year.
I won't be forced to buy it not on sale because I ran out.
BUT I'll share with you anyway...

Jake got a butterfly kit from his Aunt Kristi last summer for his birthday. We finally ordered the gross a** caterpillars ... they spun their cocoon's (my sister is going to get me because I'm not using the correct terminology!) and 1 hatched last night while we were at a ball game. Now, we have 4 total. My cats are going nuts! I have them hanging in the middle of a door (form the top) so the cats can't get them....Here is the first one that hatched:
He/she is on the right ...SO PRETTY!
We are having problems feeding them. Jake is too chicken to stick his hand in and I, well, hate bugs, so I'm certainly not going to do it! LOL I've been DROPPING in grapes for them...
Here are the bad kitties...

Kristopher plays soccer and last week his daddy told him that when he kicks the ball he needs to follow through and go with it. Meaning, stay with the ball! I told Kris that for each goal he'd earn $1 ... last week he got 3 goals. Today, he got 5. Thank God there are only 2 games left! LOL
and now to Jake~
He was given the game ball, for the most effort in his baseball game today!! This is the boy that cried and cried when he didn't want to practice and when he wanted to quit!
2 years ago Jake had the coach he has this year and that coach taught Jake how to be a catcher ... last year Jake was the catcher for another coach. This year, Jake refused to catch, made all kinds of excuses (laziness!!)...The coach knew that is where Jake belonged. In fact, the coach and I have talked about it...
Well, tonight, the coach said to Jake "If you want to play you have to catch" ... Jake said fine.
OMG OMG OMG did he ever do outstanding!! That IS his position! The coaches were all so proud of him...that is where my boy belongs, behind the plate!
Tonight Jake was on cloud 9...I'm on cloud 9! Even though they lost.
So, I treated Jake to a brand new.........(well, he never had one) ..........
CUP. Yep, I had to take Jake to get a penile protector. LOL Boy was that a hoot! He also earned new cleats, I wasn't buying him a new pair until he showed me he wanted to be there. Not that I was letting him ever quit, but I wasn't buying him a pair to do half-ass playing.
Thanks to both my boys for making your mom very very proud of you today!
while sittin' at the 'puter!
Only thing is that you have to earn $30 before you can request your money. They have a $5 signing bonus ... and so far, I've had many many surveys to fill out. BUT am only at $6.02. LOL I'll play with it a bit more...
IT'S ALL LEGIT!
Happy Mother's Day to meeeeeeeee...............Happy Mother's Day to me!!
Just a little equation, first:
What I wanted for Mom's Day...one of those KitchenAid mixers, but so damn expensive!! Plus, I don't bake, so it would have been used maybe 2 x's a year on mashed potatoes. LOL
What I needed...clothes. I have work clothes...I REFUSE to wear them now!
What I got...TATTOO!!!
What I would have gotten ... N O T H I N G
Frank, Juliana, and I went to lunch w/one of Frank's friends and I had to go to the bathroom. So, I'm sitting there, peeing, looking at my beloved Skechers flip flops (I have 4 pairs of them in different colors/designs and since becoming a SAHM LIVE in them) and thought, how nice a tattoo would look right at the top of the strap ... and just like that I thought of 3 hearts (for each of my babes), something easy, inexpensive, and with meaning. All of this while peeing and looking at feet (ew) ... 30 mins later I was at the Tattoo Parlor w/my new BFF, the same that did my other 2 tats.
Oh, and my NBFF would not let me leave until she touched up my rose on the underside of my wrist, I didn't know it was so faded, it looks wonderful!
By the way, I do understand that I need a pedicure ... and I know I have ugly toes. ;)
I adopted my black 3 - legged cat from the Humane Society (yes, 3 legs!) and with him came an index card. His previous owner was an elderly man, that lost his wife, who left him with 4 grown cats. He couldn't care for them, so took them into the Humane Society. With each one of the cats he had an index card ... written on the card was what each cat liked. A few odd things were on Petey's card.
~Petey loves to eat honeydew melon & cantaloupe.
I didn't remember this until the other night, the kids were eating cantaloupe and Jake left his plate of rhines (how is that spelled?) on the floor...
Petey was in heaven! It's been at least 4 years since he has had any ...
After a bit, Hayden arrived to see what all the fuss was about... Frank and I were watching him and it was like Hayden was thinking: "I don't get it, man" LOL
Juliana was outside playing with her 'friends' (as she calls them) ... there were 3 of them, all boys, all age 7, one of them being her brother Kris. This is how she returned to me:
Chalk, mud, grass, water, stones, dirt, and Lord knows what else!

I found a writing assignment in Kristopher's backpack a few weeks ago and I've had it on the fridge because on the back it says "I love my mom" and I thought that was just great...Today, I really tried to figure out what the entire thing said, and I did.
I'm going to type it just as he wrote it.
My Mom Mit bi me a liza. I im hape! I like lizas! I am rele hapy! I love my mom.
(My mom might buy me a lizard. I am happy! I like lizards! I am really happy! I love my mom.)
And yes, I promised him a tiny lizard (Geico) when we moved to Colorado.
This is Frank's sister, Aunt Maria, in 1984 ... she was on a cover of the "Ladycom" Magazine, in Germany.
I just can't believe how much Juliana looks like her!
