Tis the season for savings

HOLY COW!!!

It's all I can even utter. I kick booty at Christmas shopping this year. (Thanks to my mom and all her coupons), but no deal could ever beat this.

Sometimes when you are at JCPenny, you can make this happen...
YES BLOGGIES... THAT IS A SHIRT FOR FORTY TWO CENTS!
I REPEAT... FORTY TWO CENTS!


And it's a cute one at that. And that was just the price after markdowns. No buy one full price get one for fifty cents kind of deal. And yes, a not as good but still kick booty deal lives right above that one, another adorable shirt for just three bucks and fifteen pennies.

I love being frugal!

Keep posted, there are lots of great things headed your way in the next couple of weeks. Christmas decor is up, shopping has begun. It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Come back and see me!

You let me in on three of these glisteney, beautiful, leafy garlands, oh for TWO DOLLARS EACH...


And what fall decor shopping trip isn't complete without fake stick/hay-like florals? How generous of you to hook me up with these for EIGHTY CENTS EACH....


Oh turkeys. So forgotten in our rush from Halloween to Christmas. I feel sorry for the little guys. So, Micheal's you made it so easy for me to celebrate our dear bird with these awesome candle holders for ONE DOLLAR EACH...


Love you Michale's.

Change

There is a lot of talk of change today, from both sides of the fence.

I think William Wilberforce, a British politician, philanthropist and leader of the movement to abolish the slave trade, says it best:

"Change is not to be brought about in the halls of government, or legislation, but in the hearts of people surrendered to the work of the Holy Spirit."

Some things are just more important

Our nation has heavily been on my heart today. I am not at all afraid or worried about who will win the election. I know some are. I am however worried for the onset of negativity amongst everyone. And, I am fearful that too many folks have their identity and happiness, and even their feelings of security, wrapped up in what candidate wins.

If a democrat wins? Our God is in control.
If a republican wins? Our God is in control.
If the economy collapses? Our God is in control.
If we have to stand in lines to receive rations of food? Our God is still in control.

Some things are more important than our daily ramblings in blog land. Please spend the next two days praying for our nation, for our leaders, for BOTH of the candidates, and for those serving our country.
