tuesday

fleas. ugh. i hate fleas. what's the point of having them? they jump and bite. i know whatever does eat them in the food chain wouldn't miss them much. there are better things to eat than fleas. what eats fleas anyway?? were they put on earth just to annoy the dogs, cats, and people? oh my poor baby. she is covered head to toe w/bites. i think i get them all then I'll find 5 more on her. i can't keep spraying poison all over her all the time. so now she takes a bath daily in oatmeal and calamine lotion. I'm going to go get her some 'natural' repellent. i read that citronella, geranium, mint, and catnip will repell bugs. i have some mint lotion but that isn't helping none. i know that menthol chest rub works for me but she breaks out in a rash. :( so the fight is on. spraying every crack in the house make sure it dries before she comes back inside. there still here. sprayed the dogs and the yard and the house again... there still getting her. i found 4 bites on her head. maybe its mosquitoes also??
she had her bath tonight and i put her on the bed to dry her off and put her calamine on. what did i see?? yup a flea!!! WHERE ARE THEY COMING FROM?!?!?! argh!!!

so i hope you had a better Tuesday than me. mine wasn't terrible just frustrating. you don't want your kids to be hurt, or constantly itchy.. ya know? it was a beautiful day. sunny and 80. id rather 72 or so, but that's just me. :) i love the cool.
started goin thru the closet today. tryin to 'spring' clean. get rid of clothes that bb has outgrown and me too...;) so i make a "must keep for when i loose weight"(one day, just not today.lol) and her's i just put in the bin to sell. we need to have a huge yard sale!!! lol grannie bought her the cutest outfits and i know they'll go like hot cakes!! it's funny tho, she's now 25 months old and can still fit in some of her 12 month clothes. mostly shorts and pants (she's got a little waist and hiney) lol so i don't have to get her a all new wardrobe. what a blessing!! she's wearing things she wore last year!! my little mini. lol

went to brookshire's today to get a 2 ltr coke. they had ozarka water 24 pks buy one get one free. sure at first that looks like a great deal. but how much is that one pack of water?? well it was six bucks!! so 2 24 pks for 6 bucks. hmm not really a great deal. i can go to walmart any day and get a 24 pk for 2.98. so if i maybe had a ozarka coupon then yeah i probably would have gotten them. but i didn't. so that's my tidbit for today. know your prices. if you need to write them down. non sale every day prices at your favorite store. then the "other" store you like to shop at. the basics , peanut butter, bread, milk ect... i know to get my milk at walmart for a dollar cheaper than brookshiers. and brookshiers has the best .99 cent large loaf bread. i talked to the delivery guy. you know why it's the best cheap bread?? cuz it's made by mrs. baird's. :) they just put it in the brookshire's wrapper..just saved ya like 1.25 a loaf!!!
till next time.. God bless!!
