Stay POSITIVE!

Wednesday...A lot happens on Wednesday. Today is payday for me, Today I have tickets to see an advance screening of Despicable Me at 7pm here in Charlotte. Today I had to call out of work because I couldn't physically stand on my legs. They are improving now, the swelling has gone down with the help of a heating pad and sleep, but I'm still in pain here.

I refuse to miss my screening. I have been wanting to see this cartoon since I saw the trailer for it. And I will definitely let you guys know what I think!

If you are fortunate to live near an Ikea then they are having a monstrous sale for the past week, and it looks like this weekend they are going to have a great TV stand for $20 bucks so go grab one guys! I've almost got my office/craft room the way I want it and as soon as I do I will be posting some photos, I'm also almost finished with Kerrelyn Spark's All I Want For Christmas is a Vampire and a review is coming up!

Tonight after the movie I'm going grocery shopping. I have the following coupons that I am going to use:

1 Free Can of Libby's Veggies
1 Free bottle of Suave Shampoo or Conditioner
1 Free Weight Watcher's Cheesy Scramble with Hash browns
BOGO Free Nabisco 100 Calorie packs product

Also, yesterday I received my package from Amazon, a very good friend gave me a birthday gift certificate for Amazon and I was able to order the following:

Avatar DVD
Valentine's Day DVD
The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyers (for Reagan)
Taste of Home Freezer Cookbook (for Reagan)
Gillette Razor
Cricut Spatula

I was very happy to get it and look forward to vegging out in the living room this weekend with the movies. I will also make Reagan write a review for both the books I gave her, including the cookbook which by the way looks awesome and has some great recipes. The key to this cookbook is that you prepare the meals and then freeze them, the day you want to eat them you take them out to thow and and there you go! Fun.

Well, I will be back later with that movie review!

Ikea's Mighty Dollar Recycles Catherine Anderson! (errr..or Maybe Not.)

I know I havent written a book review in a while, this week has been hective, I've already worked almost 12 hours of overtime and my brain is exhausted by the time I get home so reading and concentrating has been an issue. I am now reading Morning Light by Catherine Anderson and so far it's really good (I'm not that far into it). And the heroine is psychic and we all know how much I enjoy that type of thing.
Oh, I just wanted to say something here regarding recycling. If you don't recycle then you definitely should, it's no different then putting your trash in the trash can, you just put the bottle/can/paper into a separate container then trash, so you have one more thing to tote the curb on trash day, whatever. It takes less effort to recycle then it does to chang the batteries in a remote control. I'm just saying... lol

Ikea is having a huge sale, it was quite awesome! They had these cute little colored tins for $1.49 and you get three. Also I bought a toilet brush for .99. Can't beat that with a stick. There is a store here in Concord called the Mighty Dollar, basically everything in there is a buck. It's similar to the Dollar Tree but the difference is that the Dollar Tree makes most of their own products and the Mighty Dollar is kind of like close out shopping. I bought this awesome little candy type dish for a $1 in there and it was from 1-800-flowers and it is so pretty. White with a little lid and looks like lace almost, I'll snap a photo later.

If you aren't reading my sisters blog then you should! She has awesome recipes and money saving grocery tips on her website! Reagan's (that's my sister) site is http://reagansrecipes.blogspot.com/ I'm telling you, you will enjoy it!
