The busier we get, the more I realize how crazy our lives are becoming. Is it not enough to be two students? Is it not enough to have an accident prone asthmatic baby? (Yes, if you are reading this and are in special education, the politically correct term is a baby that has asthma and is accident prone. I get it) The answer is simply nope! I think I should take pictures of all the luggage James requires to just travel overnight let alone to Utah. I have started class again and I am excited about being a student. Sure, I just found out that I have to take another class to graduate but at least I will attain that piece of paper that says I have been in college for 5 and 1/2 years. (thanks College of Education for not telling me until now! Really appreciate it!)
Joe has applied for a couple of scholarships which would be awesome if he would win. Joe will finish in May with his mining engineering degree and then will go off to field camp until mid-June.. Field camp is around 3000 bucks so I figure we should do some tv advertisements for Joe. It could go like this; "for only $15 a day, you can send this poor college student to field camp..." I think it might work. Joe could be frowning caring unsharpened pencils and used textbooks.
I have great money saving tips for everyone who wants to save money. I am addicted to Amazon and if you are a student, you qualify for Amazon Student which gives you free two day shipping through Amazon Prime for a year. Just make sure you cancel your subscription right before it is set to expire.
Diapers are super cheap on Amazon; I am getting 204 Luvs diapers for 25.12 with free shipping. They also have Huggies, Pampers, and all those tree loving, hippie friendly, biodegradable diapers.The hippie diapers are pretty good. I got some on sale on Black Friday and contrary to its name, it doesn't biodegrade on the babies' butt.
You can trade in your textbooks and get Amazon gift cards. Its awesome if you shop there a lot and if you can tell by this post, I should work in the advertising department for Amazon.
FreeCouponing.com gives you a lot of helpful info about saving the most money and getting samples. I think Sam for putting it on her facebook because I am hooked.
I better start getting packed for Utah. We will be meeting up Dad and Maria at some point tomorrow and then we will see the Petersen family for Grandpa's 90th birthday.
