Sick

Tony is home sick today. He hasn't been feeling great the last couple of days and it seems to have hit hard this morning. Poor guy! I went to the store this morning and stocked up on orange juice, cough drops, popsicles, hand sanitizer, etc. It looks like everyone else in town is sick too because practically all of the sanitizer and cough drops were bought out.

So today I'm home taking care of him and I like that. I've been wiping everything down with cold & flu killing wipes, trying to clean everything. I get stressed out when I'm sick and things aren't clean and organized. If you're going to feel gross you at least want your surroundings to feel nice!

Ok and there is a massive, massive, MASSIVE insect on our screen door...I wish Tony was awake to kill it...

Starting Out Slowly

Are there things you know you should do but don't? My "thing" has been food storage. I do the grocery shopping and budget/plan my trips down to the penny. Seeing how low I can get the cost is kind of like a game for me. I think this is why I haven't started my food storage-- I don't want to spend money on extra items.
I swear the last few weeks everything has been screaming at me to start our 3 month supply...lets hope this isn't a sign from heaven saying something is going to happen down the road.

I read this awesome article in this month's ensign Two Cans of Corn: Home Storage for Newlyweds It tells the story of a young couple who started buying just a couple extra items each grocery trip. After a while, their two cans of corn turned into a supply that saved them financially when different emergencies came up.

This is the beginning of our food storage :)
(I went shopping today)

Pathetic I know, but you have to start somewhere! On top of these items, I bought a 720 count box of wipes at Sam's Club. I almost choked when I saw the cost of diapers so I'm glad we're stocking up on some essentials now.
Want to know the weird thing? I spent less this trip than I did two weeks ago--even with the extra items!
