Good morning everyone. My kids had a group discussion and decided they don't really like our carpet all that much so they painted it this morning. What's more awesome than 4 pints of paint on carpet? White footprints throughout the house.

Thank god I am on meds or I might be kidless.
awww dreeme! hug
maybe you can tell the kids that you had a meeting and decided that you don't like the carpet white, or the white footprints on the floor, so now it's time for them to clean it up. Evil

Hey all!! I got lots to catch up on.. but my life is alittle crazy.. ended up in the ER last night with my dd Yasmin because her hand became super red and swollen like triple thickness of a normal hand after I took the kiddos out to JcP's with me to shop... they think it was an allergic reaction or possibly an infecton, couldn't tell for sure sooooooooo they gave her meds...this took from 6pm to 1am!!

Now I have an electrician coming over to fix our circuit that shorted down in the basement, feel like I am coming down with the flu... and have to clean up the house... and start/finish a 16 page case study due today... WTH!?! So I will definitely catch up with all of you... but it may take a while Frown HUGS all!!

WINDSHIELD wishes!!
oh boy! hope DD's feeling better. you don't want to get this flu bug that people are getting. several people have reported being down for a couple of weeks and i'm still laboring with it. so, meeshe, please, hurry over to your vitamin collection and start taking booster doses of vitamin c plus some zinc. two family members did that when they were starting to feel like they were coming down with something and within a couple of days, they were fine.
me, i didn't do that. guess who got sick? nod

windshield wishes???? Scratchhead all i can think of is junebugs going splat on the windshield, and i know you're not trying to make things go splat. Rofl2

Yep.. It usually takes longer! I have also been trying to steer people away from posting such obvious questionsRoll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Please guys, if you have a coupon questions, PM someoneWink

Jamie - OMG I can't believe your kids did that!! And the fact that you haven't killed them is amazing.. Where did they get paint? How do you even get paint out of carpet? *hugs* *hugs* for you today


Meeshe - sorry about the ER trip. Hope your DD feels better!


On the Kohls card .. we had major credit issues about 5 years ago.. Got involved with a credit help agency that ripped us off and cause quadruple the problems.. Since then, we have barely used credit cards. Started one when we went on our cruise 5 years ago.. Have charged on it for necessities here and there.. but it is almost paid for. We have done 12 months same as cash on our last 2 big purchases (TVs). My DH is scared of opening more accounts. But, I am much more disciplined that I used to be. Something about getting started into slick dealing has made me so cheap! It is kinda sad sometimes, I won't pay alot of money for anything.. Anyway, I opened up a Lane Bryant charge card almost a year ago, only to get the extra 30% off they were giving. I have never used it. It stays at home locked in a drawer. I am thinking of opening a Kohls card to get the extra savings. My MIL told me she uses hers and comes right home that day to the computer and makes a payment online in the amount that she just charged. Which, I never thought of doing..

Shocking Good. Gravy. They need to invent kid insurance. Like being insured for disasters due to mother nature, only from within the damn house by our own offspring....Annoyed

Windshield wishes is an old TCC thing.. Someone used to refer to good runs as being the windshield and bad runs as being the bug.. well, no one wants to be the bug do they? We all want to be the windshieldnod

That's what I do too. I have a Discover card for gas and groceries (like getting the % back in Target gift cards Whistling), Target card for ease of returns, and Kohls card for huge deals. I have never paid a dime of interest on any of them. They get paid in full right away, every month nod

Gotta make my coupon run. You all behave while I am gone! Ok, maybe not. Just don't get it mod alerted and removed. I need to read all the shenanigans when I get back!

you guys, i posted this TPC info in deals yesterday, but meant to say to all you dieters here:

the AF organic fruit strips are TPC at $2 this week. 10 in a box. no junk in the ingredients. and only 45 calories, no fat, for each strip. they're very flavorful (blueberry, pomegranate and raspberry are the ones i've tried so far and my ratings are in that ranking order, too), and not cloyingly sweet, but they make the perfect sweet snack for those craving something sweet.

also, i've been so nauseous i've barely been eating cos anything i eat makes me more nauseous afterwards. but I found each time I ate one of these, a) no additional nausea afterwards and b) they actually made me feel better in that the nausea went down as did the empty stomach gastric irritation and the exhaustion. so, something to consider for those feeling under the weather also.

Quote from gt6mk31 :
That can backfire or not help you, too. Part of the lending determination is also based on how much credit you have available whether you have anything charged or not. You may not have anything charged now, but you could. Now, when you have to make THAT payment that takes away from available income for the house payment. So, technically, you could have no debt now, but you have the potential for thousands of dollars in debt and not qualify for a loan.

Hey Dieters --- are you using any of those Kohl's coupons to buy some things in a size or two too small? I haven't been yet, so I don't know what I will find. But if I find something I really really like and it's a little small... and a dollar... it's coming home with me. Incentive!

I work with people apply for credit, so I know having too little can hurt you just as bad as having too much. We paid all are cc of with our refund this year, and I use my american express between checks and my damn red card but we pay it off right away, my credit is climbing up slowly. So as long as we don't go nuts and charge more then we can pay we will be fine.

Dh and I had a really ruff time in beginning of 09 and we learned to live off necessity and that has taught us to spend what we need. But sometimes we splurge (or he splurges I should say)

I was considering buying smaller clothes as motivation or incentive?
I bought some larger szs a few weeks ago because I wanted
Some good fitting jeans and the merona q was out, I also got me two dresses, but those can always be taken in if necessary.
