miscellany monday

mrs. clean is in the house

i have been totally busy this weekend. i think i am still in a funk, but not nearly as bad now that my house is somewhat clean. my OCD when it comes to my house, especially a messy house puts me in the worst bad mood ever. definitely not easy when you have as many children as i do to destroy it.  i have seriously followed them around the last few days like a nut...

"don't bring that in here!"
"don't sit that there!"
"i hope you don't think you are going to put that there?"
"i hope you plan to pick that up?"
"who left this right here?"

Thanks tyler for this. Her lovely art on the wall by the front door.
not to mention the lovely mural tyler has so kindly drawn on the wall by the front door for guests to look at as they enter our home. 

so, i may be pestering my kids, but it feels so good to look around and see...CLEAN!




extreme couponing (the show) makes me sick!

have you seen this show? women going into a store with their coupons, spending nearly $1,000 on groceries, and only paying $5 bucks.

SAY WHAT? are you freaking kidding me?

okay, so i do the couponing thing, and i see how this could be possible, but it is seriously like rocket science to me people!

My stockpile cabinet.I got excited this morning because i shopped for $60+ and only spent $12 and some change. and i do have a "stock pile" but not nearly as large as what i see on this show. if i could shop like this i would have so much money in my pocket. even with coupons, we spend all of at least $500 or more a month on groceries.

i can't wait for my veggies to start growing!



giveaways galore

i have decided that once a week i am going to TRY to start doing a post on some of the coolest giveaways i find out there. so many of the blogs i read are having some super duper amazing giveaways and i would love to share them with you as i find them.

i would love your help too. if you find a great giveaway that i don't know about, please feel free to shoot me over an email at sixcherriesontop(at)gmail(dot)com to let me know. i won't be doing a linky for this because i only want to share with you certain giveaways. 

hope you all have a wonderful week!
