This was actually a huge blessing. We've tightened our budget quite a bit, and started adding a lot more to savings, so there wasn't much left in checking. I happened to have $1 in my wallet! The Lord is so good to provide us with coupons!

Oh, did you like my cat sitting on the pumpkin? That's Marmalade.

Still trying to figure out how you do this. You amaze me.

Great job today!! I still need to get there to get my Swiffer! It's amazing to see the Lord provide exactly what we need...before we know we need it!

What a great image through the window of your cat - that's actually what I noticed first about your post - and then I scanned down to see what you had to say about HIM before I went back and read your article.

That's absolutely amazing. I am definitely in a place where I am going to have to learn to incorporate thriftiness into my shopping. Luckily I have a great friend to help teach me AND I have found some wonderful Christian blogs, as well.

God bless!
