disney fund update....

it's been such a crazy month that i've forgotten to update my disney fund. here's my deposits since my last posting about it:
9/28 - $30.44 - leftover cash from our monthly budget areas
10/3 - $5 - for being a neilsen digital voice participant
10/19 - $11.12 - leftover cash from our grocery budget
10/19 - $60 - from toluna surveys
10/25 - $30 - for being a neilsen tv family this week. i love being a neilsen family.

so that brings our grand total up to $338.98. as i say each time, this is all from couponing, budgeting, and doing some surveys and fun stuff online.

on another note, i'm thinking of starting another blog on my passion, saving money. it feels so good when people say i should teach a couponing class. i would love to share my knowledge, tips, and hints with the world. there's so many savings sites out there, so i'm gonna think long and hard how to differenciate it from others.

october, october....

this is usually my favorite month. i love crisp fall weather and halloween. well, this had been a rough one. my previous post explains my best friend's dad's situation. which he is pretty much still in. it's been a roller coaster, and i just can't imagine what they are going through. so continued prayers for them please.

week ago this past friday, we had major kitty emergency. long story short, wound up with an emergency surgery to remove part of a suction cup out of my baby's intestine. he's recovering well thank goodness. he get his staples out this week. poor kitty

and this morning, i start my week off wonderfully. i got rear ending coming into work. just scratched my car up pretty good and i thought nothing else..... well, i get into work and sit down to start my day and my back starts killing me. so according to the doc, my back took most of the jolt and i'm gonna be "stow up" for about three or four days. this will be fun.

prayers please....

please stop the minute you read this and say a prayer for gary case. he's my best friend's dad. he suffered an aneurysm yesterday followed by a stroke. he was airlifted to umc in jackson. he's in critical condition but has made progress since yesterday. his sister said he started showing some response this evening, but it's still very very critical right now. he is in recovery from brain surgery. i should have posted this sooner, but i've been trying to keep up with the family. being in a different state stinks when people you care about are hurting. so please, pray for complete healing. a miraculous healing from the Great Physician. wow.. amazing peace just from knowing He is the Great Physician. pray for a miracle in their family and all praise and glory go to Jesus Christ. thanks everyone...

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
