I procrastinate. Even when there's no need to procrastinate. And sometimes usually it gets me into trouble. I decided about a week ago what my daughter's big Christmas gift was going to be this year.

Childrens Clothes Bargains You Can Shop for from Home
I used to buy ONLY used clothing for my kids. I could claim that it was because I was so green, but the truth was . . . I was cheap. I'm still cheap, but since I've (mostly) banned myself from going to garage sales, I generally end up paying a lot more than I used to for my kids clothes. I do love thrift stores, but I don't often have time for … [Read more...]

Have I mentioned that I was a cheerleader in Jr. High? Actually, it started way before that. From doing stunts with my best friend on the sidelines of my brother's pee wee games to studying books of proper stretching techniques . . . cheerleading was EVERYthing to me.
