Sew a Seed and Reap a Harvest!

Sometimes we forget that tithing is such a critical and biblical obligation not because God needs our money but becuase we are always working to glorify his name. Our family has believed that our harvest was coming and it did- yesterday!! My husband who is one of the best homebuilders and most detailed people I have ever met has finally had his prayers answered for the next step in his career. He has been dealing with struggles with his current employer and knew that the stepping stones into his next level were coming to an end. Chad will now be a Superintendent for Russ Cooper and Associates here in Charleston!! Congratulations Babe! We are so proud of you

OMG, who would have thought the day would come when I could figure out how to create a blog AND post on it!! Kind of scary but I am sure my 11 year old can help when I get stuck.... that may even be scarier (is that a word?)

I have been following this coupon mayhem for the last 3-4 months and I have to admit, I am hooked!! And to think I turned my nose up at first thinking I could NEVER make time for something as homemaker as clipping COUPONS! When I say homemaker I say it with the utmost respect, I just don't happen to be one...

After a few short weeks of my friend talking about it I finally broke down and asked her for the website again. She had to walk me thru the 1st few transactions but after that.... comes the line and sinker!

Now- I know all the CVS, Walgreens and Publix clerks by name and I have even almost acquired designated baggers at my local Publix who get just as much enjoyment out of watching my savings compile as I do handing in the savings! I must admit never in my adult life did I think being termed "The Coupon Queen" by some young punk high school grocery bagger would bring me such WONDERFUL satisfaction! Some say insult, I say Bring It On...
