We are now in the 4th round of strep throat for the season and the Tank has just become our 4th victim. I was the first one to catch it this time, then Tweedledee and Tweedledum. I really hope the Bug doesn't catch it. The Tank has been the most pitiful.
On the upside I am loving my new grocery shopping system! Everyone has to go over to www.theobsessiveshopper.net and check out everything she has. I got boxes of Fiber One bars for 50 cents each! And I'm going to go stock up on my favorite shampoo (Herbal Essences) at Rite-Aid for $1 a bottle. I know, I really have got to pare down my expensive tastes.....
Another high note, I found someone to help me get my house in order (literally). I've never been a great housekeeper but lately it's gotten really out of control. Tom, I apologize profusely again. I'm convinced that I could get rid of half the stuff in our house and everyone would function just fine. We start pitching next Wednesday and I hope to post the progress as it is made. I hope everyone else has a great week!

Agh, I hate strep. Cold and flu season (which I call our liberation day) is soon...hang in there!
I am sorry you guys are sick! That is aweful! I guess I will be careful not to brag that we have had only 1 bad cold this season- AMAZING! I guess that is why it is good to be alone at home all day! lol
Fourth round of strep throat? That is brutal. I am amazed that you are still blogging. I probably would have thrown in the towel long ago.
Thanks for the link re grocery shopping. Looks like a great way to save money!

HI there
I popped over from the Mormon Mommy blogs...could so relate ot your blog about cleaning out the house! When I had all 7 kids at home, it drove me nuts when there was too much "stuff" that I was apparently responsible for making sure it was all taken care of--I did myself a favor and had a HUGE garage sale! And I continue to have one every year...out with the old, in with the new. It really has saved my sanity! GOOD LUCK!
I hope your organizing goes well- YOu will feel GREAT when its done! By the way- hope you all get better
I was complaining to my doctor the other day that I've had strep twice and bronchitis once since the beginning of the year. She reminded me to change our toothbrushes each time we're sick.
Hope you all feel better soon!
