Grace & her 1st press

To those that aren't hanging around a gymnastics facility daily you may not know what a press to handstand is. But around our house it is a really big deal. I had to share a novice video of Grace completing one today. (Please, keep in mind that until today I didn't even know I could video with my camera. So to say that it is awful camera work is an understatement.) She is currently taking classes in the TOPs program at our gym and is hoping by this spring to be able to compete. It may be a bit too early for her but if not this year definitely by next year. The first video is of her completing her 1st press and the 2nd video is of a girl on Youtube that is actually testing for TOPs qualifying. Grace's goal by spring is to complete 5 press' w/o stopping as a 7 year old.

Coupon Clipping

Every once in awhile I get on a kick of some sort ... Those that know me fairly well are probably laughing at how true that is.

So my latest adventure is coupon clipping. But not any ordinary coupon clipping, it is actually a strategic operation and there is a nifty website set up just to help you out. www.thegrocerygame.com

Weekly the website is updated with the exact coupons to clip at Safeway or Albertsons and how to combine them together, double them, etc so that you get rock bottom deals and sometimes even free items. Hence, the name "Grocery game". Whatever saves you a $$, right?

I'll let you know what my lowest total is for the month on my food bill once I have done it for a few weeks. My game face is on, bring it on baby ...
