Got to love spring.. or wait winter??  Sprinter?? Either way my school's district had a 2 hour delay today due to some nasty stuff that came down overnight!!! Yep you guessed it SNOW!!!  My house had about 2+ inches and the city I work in looks like it got that much as well.  The sad thing is that yesterday was about 50 degrees then the wind picked up, cooled everything down and then the rain started!!! Some time after 9ish when I got home from the tax office the rain was heavy and the temp was cool... I would say we got a mix of freezing rain/snow until the wee early morning hours where it decided to switch to complete snow.. I know when I opened(forcefully) my screen door the crunch under the blanket of white was apparent!!  My road was a mess with areas of solid ice and slush!!   The sun has popped out through the clouds, the temps are suppose to rise, and the white stuff only adds nitrogen to my garden!!

Happy Couponing

Final day!!!

I am delighted that tonight after the tax office closes, my season 11 or 12(I forget how long) is complete!! Another tax season to be over!!! Do not get me wrong... I love helping people with their tax situations, but long days and nights between two jobs towards the ends is definitely exhausting!!  My husband looks forward to having a wife on a normal basis and not one who is home for about 1/2 hour then crashes for the night!!!

I am grateful that my coupon stockpile has got me through another tax season and my couponing kicks back up.. not that I do not coupon during tax season, its just less intense.  I have scored free deals at Shaw's over the last few weeks.. Free yogurts, Yoplait greek blends(yummy), free pasta and alfredo sauce and of course some free pasta!!  Shaw's had a great deal on frozen veggies, even though we do not eat them per-say, I did grab broccoli and a few bags of it!!!  Chicken divan, chicken hobo packs, beef and broccoli.. hey minds well get it stocked up for cheap/free.

I look at my stockpile(or just a pile now) and think OMG, my toothpaste is down to 1 tube, deodorant well I better get going because 1 does not do 2 people if we empty ours at the same time, toilet paper needs to be bumped up along with some other essentials... That is totally fine with me, as I intend to live off what I have in stock to help during the 3-4 months of tax season and it serves me well.

Tomorrow is a new day and a new deal is waiting!!

Happy Couponing!!
