I swear I have not deserted you! It has been three Wednesday's in a row that I did not even open my newspapers to look at the ads! I have just taken out the coupon inserts on Sunday's and put them in a pile - haven't even looked at those ads. Things have been nuts around here - well, it usually is but more nuts than normal! Doug has been working a ton and with painting and redecorating the house, staff appreciation for the middle school, and prom, I just have not been home much and when I am, I am baking or trying to catch up on things! As of today, staff appreciation is over, Prom is tonight (my daughter looked beautiful and her boyfriend looked so handsome!) The house is almost in order - still have a ton to do but for now, we are just doing the final touches on a few things. The crown molding and replacing the back door are next but those will have to wait until my wonderful brother-in-law can get back here to do that with a bit of Doug's help.

I am so thankful for my stockpile but it has dwindled down to nothing! So, I need to catch up and start doing some deals! My goal on Mother's Day is to go to church, have my family over for a nice early dinner and then get on the Internet and make my shopping list for the week! I will write up what I find for you on Sunday night or Monday morning.

Thanks for sticking it out with me during this overly busy time in our household! Happy Shopping!
