Wrapping up The Week
I moved backwards just a little this week – weight loss, stress levels, housework, etc. It’s been a difficult combination of sick family members, bizarre demands from my ex-husband, and a complete lack of energy on my part. I’m just happy it’s over – the week, that is.
I went along with 39 of the high school students and two other chaperones on a field trip today. I had been looking forward to it for a long time, but when faced with my low energy level all I could think about as I crawled out of bed this morning at 5:30 was that I could hardly wait to get home and go BACK to bed. The fieldtrip ended up being a lot of fun, though. I’m glad I pushed through.
And even though I fantasized almost all day about going to bed and sleeping as soon as I got home, I am actually up typing this even though it is going on midnight. I came home and realized I wanted to get so many things done. Earlier in the week I combined great manufacturers’ coupons with Buy One Get One sales at Publix to get 24 cent bottles of Glass Plus and 4 cent cartons of Progresso Broth. I made another grocery run tonight to use additional coupons I finally located here at the house and came home with free cans of dog food, 15 cent cans of Progresso Soup and bottled of extra virgin olive oil that only cost $2.50 a bottle after the sale and the coupons. Not a bad run, if I must say so myself.
In case you have a Publix close to your home, here are the details on the deals. Some have printable internet coupons and some require that you have coupons from past weeks that came in the Sunday paper. Remember that with the internet coupons, once your screen tells you the first coupon is printing, click Back on your browser once or twice to trigger a second copy of the coupon. Most coupon sites allow you two copies and you’ll want both for a B1G1 deal.

I’ve got some sleeping in planned for tomorrow morning, and then I am going to complete as many additional assignments I can for my online Instructional Strategies class. Of course, I will reward all of my hard work by meeting two of my girlfriends for dinner.
