Love FREE Coffee


Anyone who knows me, knows I LOVE coffee. Starbucks is my preferred choice :)

But when I saw that I got get 3 boxes of coffee that you choose and a Stainless Steel coffee mug for $3.00 shipped, I was all over it.



Go here and sign up, choose your coffees and the mug and that's it.



I do recommend canceling your account after you get it if you are not interested in buying more from them. You will get monthly shipments if you do not.



I just got mine today and as soon as I did, I called their customer service and canceled my account. It was easy and fast and I have 3 boxes of coffee and a mug for $3.00 :)

101 post and busy as a bee

I cannot believe this is my 101 post. I would have had more by now if I had not been so busy.

I am keeping busy with apron orders and making things for myself. I also had the task of making 3 costumes for Halloween and now have mine and my husband's to make. They came out really good and the boys love them.

I had a website being designed for me professionally, but that did not work out and I was disappointed. I am trying a different route but will not be upset if I am stuff with the one I did myself.

My oldest has been sick for well over a week. That was no fun. I hate seeing my child suffer and to top it off the dr not doing anything about it when I asked him to. Knowing something was wrong with my son. A mother knows best! But the good thing is he is doing much better.

Only a week or so before my husband comes home. I miss him so much. The good thing is he will be home for Halloween. This will be the first in almost 5 years! So we are super excited about that.
