We may be Ravens Fans @ 2950... but it's true we've joined the Packer Nation!
Lunch Packers that is!
Living on a budget with hopes of paying off my car, student loans, and some credit cards in the very near future we are doing all we can to save more money.
Sometimes with my busy schedule tutoring I'm packing breakfast, lunch and dinner, but it is keeping us on a strict food budget. We've also been shopping at Aldi and have cut our grocery bill! WITHOUT cutting Coupons cause let's get real... I don't have time for that!
This Coffee Area in the kitchen also keeps me from stopping for coffee in the mornings. It also helps to make sure that I am not loading up on caffeine to get through the day and is limiting me to one cup a day, a much better choice!
Oh yeah, It's all John Deere, I mean who would not want a handsome farm boy on a John Deere Making your Coffee.. DUH!
Getting chores done during the week is essential since every second of the weekend is always packed with family time since Nate and I are on opposite schedules all week
. By putting all the weekly chores on Popsicle sticks Nate and I choose a few a day, from the Un Done jar, and then they move to the Done jar. It shares the chore responsibility and makes sure the whole house gets clean every week!
Doing this ensures that by the weekend all the chores have been done, there is not looming sinks of dirty dishes... and that DAMN laundry does not pile up ( I loath laundry!)
There is also a certain excitement (lame I know) about choosing a chore at random to do. Makes it feel more like an award or something.
Tonight I receive to coveted Wash Dishes ( only use Palmolive it was the only thing Grandpa Vaughan would allow in his kitchen!)
Till next time here are some things that this little wife are finding to help have a smooth running household where we get it done... even the laundry!
Much Love,
Said Wife
