Birthday Freebies

Yes, Shiloh's birthday is still 4 months away with Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas between now and then. Yes, I am already obsessed with where we will have it this year. I am having absolutely NO luck finding an affordable (cheap) and approriate place to have a 2 year olds birthday party.

However, I have found some awesome birthday freebies!!!

My Three Favorites are:

1. Toys R Us looks like it will be my favorite. Register your child's birthday and you will get a 10% off coupon for the month leading up to his/her birthday and THEN your child will get their very own card and gift (I hear it is a $5 gift certificate) from Geoffrey on their birthday!

2. If you register your child at Sonic.com, they will get a coupon for a free kids meal the month of their birthday. Register yourself too as an adult and you'll get a special treat on your birthday as well (though I am not sure what)!

3. The Childrens Place will send you a 15% off coupon for use during your child's birthday month. Who doesn't need a new birthday outfit?

Well back to my search for a party place. If you have any affordable (cheap) and appropriate ideas, please let me know!

    I got a $3 gift certificate from Toys R Us, which is still sort of fun because you can take your child and let him/her choose a small toy. :)

    Corky's has a kids club and you get a free t-shirt for joining and a free kids meal on the month of your child's birthday, which is nice.

If I ignore it....

....will it go away? Today is just one of those days when everything hits me all at once: The stress of our situation and uncertainty of what is to come, the worries of money and how we will survive, and the feeling disconnected from the world. Day in and day out, I try to look at the bright side and hope and pray for the best. I do research to affirm where we stand and the likliness of a good outcome. I have thrown everything I have into finding ways to make and save money, telling myself it will make a difference. I never stop racking my brain. However, I never seem to shake the feeling of being disconnected from the world. My only social outlet is work, and being that, is limited. I seem to have very little in common with the people who are easily accessible to me outside of my family, and very little time for those with which I can relate. I crave something creative...to paint, photograph, write, but by the end of the night, when I alot my self some time, I am too mentally tired...

Easter Bunny Interview

The night the Easter Bunny was to visit our house, Zachary asked me: “Don’t you think the Easter Bunny is with Santa Clause and has Santa give him a ride on Easter?” Well you know, I don’t know. I remember asking Santa how he made it to all those houses in one night. I don’t think I’ve ever asked the Easter Bunny….anything! Now that Easter has come and gone, the Easter Bunny agreed to answer some essential questions. Me: “Do you live at the North Pole with Santa? EB: “No No, it is much too cold there for a bunny. I live in a hole in the ground.” Me: “Is this hole in the ground on Easter Island?” EB: “The location of my home is classified. Santa can give out his location since it is hard to travel to the North Pole, and the weather is frightful. My home is actually much more accessible and the weather is pretty nice.” Me: “Are you and Santa friends?” EB: “Oh yes! I am friends with the Tooth Fairy too!” Me: “How do you get all the candy for Easter?” EB: “Well, I started out making all t...

I'm a WOH! Mom

I am a WOH! (Work Outside the Home) Mom. I don’t have a choice. My Husband and I both have to work to afford a 1200 sq. ft. house in a small town 45 minutes out of Nashville. We both have to work to afford two older vehicles (2002 and 2003). We both have to work to pay the electric bill, water bill and car insurance. We don’t have cable or satellite, we don’t have internet and we don’t spend money eating out. Most months we barely get by. If one of us decided to stay home and we got rid of one vehicle, we could only afford to pay $200.00 in rent. We would still make too much to qualify for any kind of state or federal assistance. So we both work. But, if I had the choice, I would still be a WOH! Mom. Don’t get me wrong, I would LOVE to not HAVE to work, but I would still work. I would still send my daughter to preschool five days a week. For me, Preschool is a God-send. The group of teachers at her preschool are brave. They let the one year olds finger paint!! Preschool has taught my d...
