Coupon Sense

So, we went coupon sense shopping today because we are out of food, obviously. Anyhow, my sister and I want to buy things in bulk and prepare/freeze/store it so it will last. Coupon Sense helps us do just that. Today, we got four (4) tomatoes, twenty (20) lbs. of potatoes, four (4) lbs. long grain brown rice, four (4) lbs. pinto beans, four (4) cantaloupes, eighteen (18) cans of vegetables, twenty (20) pkgs. of Ramen Noodles, four (4) pkgs. whole grain pasta, and four (4) lbs. peaches all for $16.88!

We love Coupon Sense!

I heart The Children's Place

Sooo....I heard about a $25 gift card giveaway from The Children's Place, an AWESOME place to be exact, and I was super excited to enter. One way to get an entry in is to blog about the giveaway and link to the post. Well, Two of kind...here is your link-back.

I shopped at The Children's Place a lot when my nephews, now 8 and 13, were tiny things. Adryan, the 8 year old, has won several trophies wearing The Children's Place attire in pageants. WE LOVE the place and all the outfits are sooo adorable. If you have one near you, check it out for your little guy or gal. You won't be disappointed because the price and the value are GREAT!

We got these outfits at The Children's Place in 2004 including the saddle shoes.

Skillz

I have "mad skillz". I type at least 70wpm. I have extensive knowledge in most computer programs. I was trained in Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, and PowerPoint. Since the invention of the computer, (just kidding), since 7th grade, I've been interested in computers and technology. So, why don't I have a job in computers you ask? Beats the heck out of me!

I am intelligent, have a winning personality, and a very quick learner, but I am indecisive and sort of lazy. Alright, a lot lazy. I admit it. NOT a trait I'm proud of and one that I struggle to overcome, but if it comes to doing labor, I'd rather sit down and pull out a blog post like this one.

I love going to school though. I love getting good grades; I guess that means I love gratification. I need a job that gives me praise. I need one where my accomplishments are acknowledged. I'm greedy like that, and I guess pretty needy. I want someone to pat me on the back and say good job, or hand me back a graded paper with A+ on it. I can't find that type of feedback in the workforce. I also get really bored. I need to do things that are NOT monotonous. Change it up a bit. Don't give me a job where I'm doing repetitive stuff because then I feel like a robot. That's why I love daycare, photography, and computers. NOTHING is ever the same. It's challenging. I thrive on stress. I get off on challenges. Find me a job that's challenging and I will excel.

Hmmm...now only to find that job.

(PS Cashiering at Circle K is monotonous).
