Welcome

Welcome to my blog. I decided to start a blog to share my extreme couponing for the normal person experiences, my rants about life, happy events, new craft projects, and whatever else I get into!

I am 20-something years old and recently started moving on with my life. I moved in with my boyfriend several months ago and am loving living on my "own". I have had a lot to learn, like doing laundry from start to finish for the first time, living on a budget, meal disasters, as well as cooking in general. I am still learning, trying to become a "grown-up".  Overall, I am enjoying the experience. 

I have a wonderful cat named Hobo....well, maybe wonderful is too nice, he can tend to be a little a$$hole at times! Like when he decides to move things out from under the bed in the middle of the night. Or flip over the recycling bin. And we won't even discuss the nice presents in the litter box... (I swear my cat is mentally challenged). 

But can you really argue with something that adorable?!?!

I attempt to make a living driving a big yellow bus full of children around in circles for 8 hours a day. Generally I love my job! No idea why though, I am not a "kid person" and I have no tolerance. Children these days are downright scary (a topic for a later post). But I have AWESOME coworkers, and nice bosses. The only downside is the hour commute so I can be where the money and benefits are best! Hopefully I can get over whatever illness that has me on bed rest for the past week so I can get back behind the wheel!

If you're wondering about the "squishycar"in my URL, it refers to my little 1992 Geo Metro Convertible that is nicknamed "Squishy" due to some severe rust issues. If you want to see more about the car and the rebuild,  checkout my  Teamswift.net forum post detailing the entire process.
