Almost done moving!

Sorry I haven't been around, but the good news is.. I am almost done moving!! Tomorrow I get to clean, and hand the old apartment keys over.

I actually feel more rested, and at ease since moving.  The old apartment I could hear the freeway, and see it from our corner apartments windows.  The new townhouses views are of trees.  I saw a squirrel, and a cardinal this morning.  All the honeysuckles also put me into a better mood.  Honeysuckles remind me of my Granny.  My Granny lived next to "Honeysuckle Lane." It was by far the most beautiful, windy, back country road.  The honeysuckle smell, and bushes were huge.  I remember eating so many little sweet juices from it.

It's an even prettier view from the upstairs bedroom windows too.  Trees in front, and behind of us.  I feel like we live in the woods, but we are still  in the city.

Sy is just hanging out.  We've moved every year when the lease would be up at other apartments, mostly because our family grew, and we out grew the old place.  Last apartment we had neighbors above us that would throw lit ciggs down onto my bottom patio.  You know I had to declare war about that.  For one it is a fire hazard, and secondly that is littering.  I'm happy to be away from that apartment now.

By next week things should be calmed down (Now is the joys of unpacking.) I will show you all my pantries, and how I live on a budget.   I want to get back to blogging, and hopefully make it a little more personal, and  informational.  Also, the fun reviews, and giveaways too.

I have superfantastic news too! Right before the move I got an email that I was the grand prize winner for Shespeaks, and Pampers diapers on Pinterest.  Yes! Yes I do enter giveaways, and sweepstakes too.   We are a one income family.  Any win and I get super excited, and will high five whomever is around when I read the email!!  As a grand prize winner I won a years supply of diapers,  6 months of wipes, and a $300.00 Kids Pottery Barn Gift Card. I tell my 2 yr old that he is my little lucky charm.  It was him that got us into budgeting, and using coupons.  It's 100% true that you aren't going to win anything if you don't even enter things.
