Rise and Shine is my way of sitting down and having a cup of coffee with you! We talk about the new deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help us save time, money or energy. Published Monday through Friday – as I’m able.
Good morning! How are you today? Yesterday my sweet girl wasn’t feeling well – and I wasn’t either. We ended up getting a big bowl of Miso soup for lunch- which she LOVES and then took a nap yesterday afternoon – I think we both needed a day like that.
Last night night I took my son to get his hair cut – it had reached “poofy” levels as he would say. And although that never bothered him before, now that he’s almost 8, I guess he cares about his hair. . . a little. So we got him trimmed up. I don’t cut his hair anymore after this incident.
We also dropped our filing cabinet off at Goodwill (since we shredded all our old papers!) and stopped into the see if we could find any secondhand treasures. We found two Percy Jackson paperback books and started reading the first one of the series last night. Reading out loud to my son is one of my FAVORITE parts of the day – he could listen for hours, if I would read that long. It’s one of those things he won’t let me do forever – so I make time for it every chance I get! Side note – I did see the The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians Book 1) {Kindle Edition} is $0.99 right now (reg. $7.99). Great price!
Last night I went through all my kid’s baby clothes, shoes and toys. As many of you have mentioned – the sentimental stuff is where downsizing gets a little tricky. I had clothes, toys and shoes spread over about 4 – 5 storage bins. I narrowed it down to three bins. One for each kiddo and then one for toys and books that they both loved. I can always get rid of more later – but I don’t want to regret parting with things before I’m ready. Sometimes downsizing is a process – you go through and then a few years later – you go through again. 🙂 I’m okay with that.
Speaking of little ones, Amazon has a new promo for buy 2 Melissa & Doug arts and crafts, get one FREE. Many of these items are add-on items, which means you need to spend a minimum of $25. But I figure if you buy six, you’ll get two FREE and get FREE shipping. Comes out to about $3.62 each. These are GREAT for road trips, rainy summer days and even Christmas gifts – my kids love them. You can get the deal details here.
