Fragmented Freewrite #7





Luke is all well now. Thank YOU so much for all of the prayers, emails and comments! To properly show his "wellness", he stuffed his cheeks with animal crackers and dolled-up his hair.

Hope you like it!

Sam made a Bendaroos Mommy, and I think it's so me! What do you think???

We made Jiffy Pop for the first time over the weekend, and the boys loved it! How wonderful is the smell of popcorn!?! Yum.

I'm all about bargains. If we were millionaires, I would still LOVE a good bargain. Lately, I've gotten a couple that really made me smile.

1st, I had some "birthday freebies" at the mall. I hate going to the mall, but I can stand anything if it's FREE. I got a cute pair of undies at Victoria's Secret and a bath scrub at Aveda. Plus the Aveda Lady gave me a couple cool samples. All for FREE!



2nd, I went back-to-school shopping for Sam. I actually got 16 items for him and Luke. The total? $61. Gotta love that. All of the items were name brand, too!



3rd, I got the necklace that I was wearing in last week's family photo for $1 at Express. (I had a FREE $15 in merchandise coupon that I received in the mail!)

Bargains all around. Super cool! Free stuff is always neat. I love the Bath & Body Works coupons where you get a free item for spending so much.

Thank gosh little Luke is well now! That photo is so cute.

Happy FF!

PS - I have Abby in my prayers. Poor kitty.

Glad to hear Luke is better, and I'm praying for Abby, too.

Love the necklace, and love the bargains even more. I'll have to start learning some shopping tips from you!

My motto is....If it's free, it's for me! Love the necklace. I recently got a birthday gift card from Express and I'm itching to spend it.

I hope your kitty has a speedy recovery!

I love that necklace! I'll buy it off of you for $2.

Oh and I love popcorn. I have one of those stove-top Whirly Pops. I highly recommend it. Then you can just buy popcorn in bulk and have popcorn anytime.

So glad Luke is feeling better! He's just a cutie! :)

Sam did a great job on the Bendaroos Mommy - you're stylin'! ;)

We haven't made Jiffy Pop in so long - we wanted to 'introduce' it to Princess Nagger, but realized you can't make it on a glass top stove...

Happy FF a day late! :)
