Well, I'm really in the soup now...

First of all, I want to say that Kmart's prices are so high on their toiletries that even the double coupons didn't help much! The one thing I managed to score lots of for free was a new line of paper towels and toilet paper called "small steps". Everything else was carefully priced to make sure that the store got at least $.50 out of your pocket. Not bad, but not free. I think I'll try out the CVS bonus bucks this weekend.

The BIG news, though, is that my kids and I will be moving into the new SOM home at the beginning of May in a "house parent" kind of capacity! Sorta - we're still trying to figure out what to call the position - personal assistant? utility cop? I mean, I'm already President of Research and Development reporting directly to the CEO! (Translation - I come up with money & energy saving ideas, test them, and tell Sue what I figured out) So, what's in a name? But generally I'll be there to keep an eye on situations, teach people how to cook and clean in unconventional ways, show them how to save money, and keep utility use to a minimum.

Currently an unpaid position, but our grant writer is trying to see what she can do about that!
