So the other day, I was on pintrest, I am the world's biggest pintrest fan!
(Well, maybe one of them!) But I swear, I am a better wife and teacher because of that nifty little website!
I came across a money saving pin called "What To Buy and What Not To Buy at Costco". My interest peeked, seeing as how I love Costco but the last few times I've gone, I feel like I just wasted money since my final spending was a HUGE amount, and I felt like I bought nothing.
So I clicked on this little pin and it sent me to a site called The Fun Cheap or Free Queen.
Confession {I have been reading/browsing/stalking this site ALL weekend!}
She has made me want to set a goal of being better with budgeting and bargain shopping!
I actually pride myself a little when it comes to budgeting, thankfully my parents taught me well!
But I still have a lot to learn! So I am taking her challenge while I'm off work this Summer, and am going to stalk up on food storage, and bargain shop!
Check our her site! http://www.funcheaporfree.com/
As I was reading through her site, I noticed a random fact page about her and I was cracking up!
I have this weird quirk, where I like to know interesting facts about people..I read people's FACTS on their blogs or facebooks all the time.
Dan doesn't get it, he thinks I'm weird. I don't know this girl at all, but I loved reading about her!
It prompted me to write a Random Facts post.
Granted, only about 4 people read this blog, but hey, to you 4 people... here is a little bit more about me!
(if you want to read it! :) )
* I'm very reserved when I meet people, but then open up and share way too much information about myself and am usually friends with everybody. So don't judge me by your first impression, unless it's a good one! :)
* I love all and every Disney movie.

Thanks for stopping by! :)

I LOVE YOu!! haha sooo fun reading this list! It reminded me of sooo many memories! Plus there are like 15 things on that list that are exactly me! I am pretty sure you need to move back to Poky!
ReplyDeletelinds, you are the cutest! and my one thought about all of those facts was.....YOU ARE TOTALLY GOOD ENOUGH to make efy music! oh my. you would be perfect.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all.... I just wanted to say CUTE hair.
ReplyDeleteSecond.....I've been to the Ellen degenerous show and it was absolutely so much fun! And I got a year supply of tide laundry detergent which you apparently love the smell of :) haha.
Cute post.
Love this post. I'm totally going to copy you. I've found that Fun, Cheap or Free blog on Pinterest to (also addicted) and you've inspired me to do more browsing on her blog. I also just started Zumba. And when I say "started" I mean I tried it once and then bought the Zumba DVDs at a junk market in Shanghai (so they're fabulously knock-off but you wouldn't know by looking at them). I haven't tried them yet because there's no room in the hotel room we live in, but you can bet that as soon as I get to the States, I'm gonna be an idiot trying them too! Love your blog; thanks for writing! (oh, and yeah, about only 4 people read my blog too.) ~Mindy
ReplyDeleteOh, and if you like gardening and church stuff, you'll love this talk by Elder Uchtdorf... changed my life.
