Yippee It's Friday!

It's been a really long week at work - depressing because of the job eliminations announced on Monday. Several of the folks who are losing their positions have very positive attitudes. Derl, Chris - you rock! May God bless you in your future endeavors!

I had to run checks over to my "Party Lite" consultant tonight. I ended up getting almost $365 worth of Party Lite for $9.95! Thanks all for such a great party. I can't wait to get my goodies!

Corby and I went to Leeker's when I got home. It's double $1 coupon week, so of course, I was loaded up with coupons. For those of you who don't shop at Leeker's - I know it's in Park City - you need to pay attention. They do double $1 coupons about every 5 or 6 weeks. I got toothbrushes for a quarter, Tylenol for .94 and some frozen goodies for $1 or less. I am definitely a coupon clipper! I've had to be with 3 kids. I don't think I'll ever stop. It takes a little time, but it's definitely worth it.
I'm listening to the soundtrack from "Jesus Christ Superstar". Have you ever seen the movie? I know you will think I'm crazy - but I've seen the movie over 100 times! I was obsessed with it when I was in my 20's. They used to show it every Christmas and Easter at the movie theatre, and I would go time and time again, by myself if I had to. I know all the lyrics by heart. Let me know if you want to borrow the movie. Ted Neeley - who didn't act in much else - played Jesus. I LOVE THIS MOVIE! "You are the power and the glory - forever and ever".
I am currently reading "Obsession" by Jonathon Kellerman - yes - another favorite author. I've barely started it, but it looks like another good one!

so funny - I love Jesus Christ Superstar. Now I have the song stuck in my head - thanks Linda! I have been trying to find a copy to share with my husband who has never seen it. My mom used to have it but hasn't seen it since the divorce a couple of years ago!

I have a plastic container with coupons, but I don't have them filed. Just go thru them once a week and trash the expired ones and pull out the ones I think I'll use before I go to the store. Takes a little time, but saves us quite a bit!

And Jennifer, I ordered my DVD of JCS from Amazon.com.

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
