Finally..........

When I began this blog I had hoped to post at least once a week. Well when I tried to log in it told me that I did not exist. LOL So today I thought to myself : "Self, try one more time to see if it will work". Sure enough bam it opened on my page. YAY

Since beginning this blog the world of freebies has become a fascination and near addiction. Who knew there were so many samples to be won or ordered? 

Having been a coupon user for years this is not a new trend to me. At one point I was an extreme couponer because of the double and triple offers that got me $500 or more in groceries for under $10.00. Now I buy only what I need. If I have a coupon for something we do not use I either leave the coupon on the product at the establishment we shopping at or if it's a great coupon, I buy the product and give it to the local shelter or the church food bank. I do not hoard products that will never be used before the expiration date. Why on earth does anyone need 120 bottles of mustard or 16 cans of olives or 40 bottles of shampoo when there are those who, because of the economy or health circumstances cannot provide for their families as they wish? 

I encourage everyone to take a look at their pantries, check expirations dates and make sure that your products can and will be used. Be honest with yourself and if you are not going to use the product before the expiration make sure someone who will use it has the opportunity.

Beginning tomorrow I will try and post every freebie or coupon that comes in the mail. I will also take some time and go through my huge basket of freebies and post reviews on the individual items as I use them. 

Thank you for taking the time to read the beginning of what I hope will be a daily accounting of the freebies, coupons, and products that I use along with a discussion of certain health issues and how I cope with them. (NOTE:  Views and discussions concerning the health issues I deal with are my opinion only. Always, always consult your physician or medical professional)

You are not alone out there if you are dealing with chronic pain, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Epstein-Barr Syndrome. Although I am not as humorous or entertaining (in my own mind) as those I read, hopefully you'll find some things that interest you. 

As a Christian I am quite certain that tomorrow, at this time, Jesus will not have raptured us since He Himself told us that no man knows the day or time when He will come to claim His bride. Even Christ does not know, only the Father. God bless you all. 


"36But of that [exact] day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
    37As were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
    38For just as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, [men] marrying and [women] being given in marriage, until the [very] day when Noah went into the ark......"
Matthew 24: 34-36 (Amplified)

Here we go.

Dear Friends and Family,

Sometimes I have things I want to say but can't say them off the cuff. With the memory problems I have and the rerouting I have to do to make my thoughts cohesive I thought this might be the best way to let everyone know how things are going in our lives and in my mind.

I will always try to make my posts positive but will to be honest when my days are not good.

My hope when people read my thoughts is that you will ALWAYS see JESUS and what He has done and is doing in my life. His glory is the most important thing to me. Without Him I am nothing. Without Him I cannot get through the day and the paths I am walking.

Feel free to respond at any time, good or bad. If you have something you need to say please feel free to say it here. Since I have trouble thinking off the top of my head right now, this forum will allow me to answer you properly. It will give me a chance to step back and think on any constructive criticism or praise that you may have.

My other hope is that through this blog I can more accurately describe and detail the illnesses I am dealing with at this time in my life. I don't expect anyone to understand or comprehend but I do hope to raise awareness of the things that people with Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Epstein-Barr Syndrome deal with on a daily basis physically, emotionally and mentally.

Also, feel free to ask for prayer. No request is too big or too small.

Well that's all for the first blog. Hopefully it wasn't too boring or self-centered. lol I hope to hear from each of you.

God bless you all.

GO CHIEFS!!
