Mothers Touch Thermometer Giveaway

One Bored Mommy is hosting a giveaway that I would LOVE to win!  It is for a Mothers Touch thermometer.

It is as simple as touching your child's forehead for six seconds.  She says it is surprisingly accurate!

Temperature taking is a battle here and I always remind Lydia, "I'm bigger than you - I will win"  But I usually end up getting so upset.

Enter the giveaway here!

Today I am thinking about the miscarriage I had nearly 5 years ago.  To think that if s/he had survived I'd have a 4 year old! 

I miss that child more than anyone knows, but I am glad they are safely with Jesus and don't have to worry about this world.  I don't have to worry like I do with Lydia, "will she get saved at an early age?"  "will she ever get involved with gross sin?"  "will she have her heart broken by someone that is supposed to love her?"

My throat is swelling shut as I type this.  My heart breaks for Lydia's future as this world gets worse and worse. :(  All I can do is pray for her,

Ladies only

here is a "personal" deal.  Monistat is on sale for $11.99 at Walgreens.  You can print out a $3 off coupon here and then you get $2 RR back.  Unfortunately I happen to need this right now, but I was savvy enough to go look for a sale and a coupon on line first.  haha

when we left our hotel in Virginia, Friday AM it was 39 degrees, now back home it is 91.  WHEW!  Three Loads of laundry washed and in the dryers as I type. 

Day 4 of Frappucino Happy Hour at Starbucks (or as I've been calling it "frappy hour")   I really didn't want one today, but felt like it would be a crime to not get it at half price.  So I ordered a tall.  I got and was charged for a venti.  Half price, but still.  It is in the freezer.

Every muscle in my body hurts, like when I had mono.  I have some oxyclean paste in the tub.  The tub looks disgusting!  Hoping it works.

Got 6 20 oz Diet cokes, a bottle of body wash, deodorant, shampoo, and barettes for $6.xx at CVS yesterday.  I had a coupon for $4 off $20, then I had a $10 ECB I had earned as a CVS Advisor, and I used 6 FREE coke coupons I had from mycokerewards,com.  CVS is the ONLY place I can find the deodorant I've been using for years.

Superpoints is still invite only, and you can earn Paypal, Amazon, Starbucks, Dominos Pizza and a plethora of other prizes.  It only takes me a few minutes a day.  Snag this invite token if you're interested!

Listening to Seminole String Band while I take a breathing treatment.  We go to church with these fine people, and I love them so much!
