So Pleased to Meet Ya!!
A wife to my wonderful husband Rich of 22 years, wow how time does fly. A mother to my 2 20ish boys and a friend to many.
I LOVE to save money shopping whether it be grocery or clothes shopping, sales and coupons are for me!!! I typically save about 60% off my grocery bills, the hubby loves that. My boys have come to know that they can get what they want, when it's on sale. This year I did my Christmas shopping on line the day after Thanksgiving...not gonna name names but got name brand, 2 pairs of jeans, 2 flannel shirts and a striped thermals for my son for, ok are you ready...$65.00, free shipping, gotta luv it!!
For some reason I'm into How To's.. How To do things, get rid of things, etc....just looking to share my knowledge with you.
Somehow I always end up back at Squidoo, doing lenses. Sometimes I get sidetracked but again always end up back at Squidoo. I love Squidoo, do you?
Do You Squidoo? I Do
I found about Squidoo on a forum and have been making lenses here and there, I think I was afraid of the html, over that now. I'm building and building and building and lovin' it.
What Matters
Having my family happy and healthy means the world to me. I am definately a kid person. Even though my boys are in their twenties, they will always be my babies.

I'm into "green" and the new baby products just blew me away. How far we have come in the past 20 years, wow it's been that long since my boys were "little".
