Dear Jelly Beans

Dear Jellybeans, Hanging out with you these last 5 days doesn’t mean were BFF’s. Really I'm kinda sick of you. You’re a real problem around here. You think your so sweet don't you?

Not saying we’ll never hang out again, In fact, next year looks good. As for the few of you remaining (I’m talking to you purple &black) you all don’t have to return next time if that can be arranged. It's been sweet but you really have to go. Sincerely -Jens Big Fat Ass

Everyone- the Jellybeans sitting in my trash can have just issued the following statement and requested I post it live on Facebook:It was only our intention to bring a little joy to the people over the Easter holiday. As you all may know, we as a candy don... Read More’t really get out much except at this time of year. Suffocating in plastic eggs next to a few dimes & nickles for a couple days isn’t our idea of fun but we appreciate having a job during these rough economic times. Purple, black and green would like everyone to know that they are perfectly good flavors and Jen might be slightly prejudiced in her selections. And finally…we would like everyone to know Jens ass was big and fat waaaayyyyy before we got here. Thank you for your continued support- Jellybean

Dear Jens Big Fat Ass-

So this is how you want to play it? Really? Why you gotta do me like that? Are you so big now, you have taken on a life of your own? You can just blog and post and go along like it doesn't have anything to do with me. You'll be sorry, you will be the one to pay for this you ass. In fact that's it. No more nonsense, leave the poor jellybeans out of it. We'll take care of this once and for all. Im going to kick your ass ASS. See you at the beach!!!

Sincerely- Jennifer

Lies Lies Lies Yeah!

This should be read to the tune of The Thompson Twins "lies"

Alright I've been debating posting this but I finally have confirmation from friends that we all at some point lie to our children.
We all start with The Santa/ Easter Bunny/ Tooth Fairy lie. It graduates to the "you better brush your teeth or the bugs will eat them" lie . Then as soon as we start guilting them into eating foods they don't like.....it happens.
Also I am of the firm belief that the people that tell you its not okay to lie or fib to your children are the same idiots, oops, I mean caring parents, who tell you "it doesn't hurt a bit" to have a baby. If it didn't hurt for you, well done, you probably shouldn't lie to your kids. As for me I've earned it.
Here are my whoppers: All told to my son age 10 or under
1. No we can't go to Toys R Us just because you got a gift card today. They require appointments just like the dentist. We'll go another day when they have enough people working the registers okay honey? ( does that count as a lie since Toys R us lines are worse than Targets on a Saturday?)
2. "We can't go to the park today, they are mowing the grass". His response even at 4 , "Can we goes to anudder park mommy? My double lie..."no they mow all the different parks grass on the same day baby." Worked every time.
3. "The beach is closed, they are reorganizing the lifeguard towers after someone moved them all over the place." (Actually I probably could have just checked the local water report and now had to lie at all the water here in Long Beach are kinda rank)
4. "It's against the law to buy candy with the money the tooth fairy left you." If she finds out, she doesn't come again. ( BTW my son has never had a single cavity) oh and the sound you now hear is me patting myself on the back LOL
5. Around age 8, he figured out that birdies weren't actually flying home to me throughout the day to tell me things he had done at school that I wouldn't approve of. This one is HIS fault... It only came about when I got a call from the teacher telling me he wouldn't line up like everyone else to come back to class. Instead, he would stay on the playground, doing what else.... influencing others to stay with him and play. He believed for many years since I always seemed to know what he had done wrong that day.
5. "You have to wear the outfit that the Easter Bunny/ Santa left you. Yes the one with the tie and jacket or yes the itchy sweater or EB's/ Santas feelings will be hurt". ( Age 2-5)
5a No you can't wear that tie that the Easter Bunny/ Santa left you out in public or to school anymore or the mean kids will kick you. (Age 2-5 after he became obsessed with people on holidays telling him how handsome he looked in a tie)
6. "Your nose flares when you lie to me. I can tell every time". His nostrils don't really flare. Now every time I even have the slightest idea he might be trying to fib , he interjects with " did my nose just flare? Yes Landon, it did....it soooooo did. Busted.
8. All you freckles are kisses from angels in heaven so relax, alot of people up there love you and are looking out for you. ( one of my sweeter harmless lies)
9 and finally my last April fools joke which has now cemented the fact that my son will never believe anything else I say ever again. I sent a letter from his home school academy, telling him was near expulsion, not because his grades (which are all A's & B's) but because he makes his learning coach, Ahem his mother, do to much of his work and papers for him and they could tell. I actually let him off the hook on that one after several hours of watching him panic and it was April Fools after all.
Im not all bad. I've hung every piece of artwork up on the fridge. I've had 45+ kid birthday parties for him and I have laughed at every terrible, unfunny made up knock knock joke he has ever come up with as if it is the funniest thing I've ever heard.
The truth is, now that he is 14, I really regret some of those lies. At the time I never realized that now I'd wish maybe I spent day 1001 at the park instead of just 1000. They grow up really fast. I've since fessed up to my son and we had some good laughs about it. He wasn't even mad. His only question around age 10 with a sad little look was "So that was you all those years taking the bite out of the cookies we left for Santa?" awwww
Hey wait thats only 9.... I think all moms are entitled to 10. Stay tuned.

Now you have to go to and read my friend blog who writes for the OC register. She has been doing it way longer is a lot funnier and is quite witty. Someday when my blog grows up it wants to be just like hers. She recently posted an other funny story on TheMom Blog about this here :

Home Schooling

After more than a few years spent frustrated in the local public school system, I started looking into different home school programs. I researched our options for about a year. When the time was right, I choose a really great program that I found. My son now attends Connections Academy and I can't say enough about the program, teachers, curriculum or benefits we have discovered by joining this school. My son is in the 8th grade, his grades, test scores most important, his confidence are all up.

It is a zero cost/tuition school. They provide all learning materials. Live lessons, teacher instruction, daily lesson plans, and support are all provided through this program. All you really need is time to provide your self as the learning coach, lots of patience and a computer.

Coupon tips

I usually save 180$ to 260$ every time I "big trip" grocery shop. Often I go for little trips where I can usually get 50$ to 70$ worth of items between 10$ and 20$.
Here is my advice on how to do it:


Step 1: Get a Sunday paper every week , in fact buy a few copies. The cost of the papers will be offset by the overall savings.

Step 2: Many coupons may not be available in your local papers but are national manufacturer coupons, therefore you should join and order any needed or missing coupons through this link:

Join this site and literally order only the coupons that your family needs and uses.


Step 3: Print your online coupons 1 time per week and look for alerts to new ones. I will be posting new coupon alerst on this blog 1-2 times per week for subscribers.

A lot of manufacturers predetermine how many internet coupons will be made available, so you have to be part of those that get them. Don’t wait to print a coupon you really use and need. Please sign up and join this site through Coupons.com , Smartsource.com, Redplum.com, Coolsavings.com, Eversave.com
link to the side link:



Step 4: Join electronic coupon sites. These coupons get loaded right to your loyalty card for whatever grocery store(s) you use. These are so great because they combine with other coupons for more savings. In fact it can make some items "money makers".
Whats a money maker??? A money maker is an item that pays you to but it. Example:
Cottonelle toilet paper. On sale at Ralphs for $1.25 usually. Combined with the printable $1.00 coupon and the electronic coupon for .50 cents it makes .25 cents.
Now you have free toilet paper and an extra quarter to apply to the rest of your bill. It all adds up!!!!!!

Please go to www.shortcuts.com and join. Its simple, you just need your e-mail and store loyalty card.

Also, join at www.cellfire.com. This site notifies you of coupons, you save them and when you go to the grocery store, you give the cashier your "code". Items are linked through your loyalty card as well. Again, these provide opportunity to get free items or money makers when combining with MQ's or store Q's.



Step 5:Get organized: You will need a coupon organizer. I currently use and recommend the Couponizer. It's made for beginners to learn from but also continues to be useful even once you really get to know what you are doing. It looks like this:


Please click here to order, it really is a must have!!!!








Tips:

DO NOT print any and all coupons you find. Most print with a 2-4 week expiration. If you don’t use it, you have wasted not only ink and paper but most manufacturers limit coupon printing to 2 per household per cycle.


Aside from saving money, couponing is about building up your pantry, medicine cabinet and your sundries.
Example: I haven't paid for a tube of toothpaste in 2 years and have 7 full boxes sitting in my cabinet just waiting for when I need them. 4 are Aquafresh, 2 are Colgate and 1 is Crest. So you have to be flexible, ready to switch brands etc.
But often when we need something like toothpaste, we run and get it, pay the full price of 3.99 and don't think twice about it. No!!!! Wait for the sale, take your coupons and pay nothing or close to nothing for it. Thats the way couponing works.
here is a great Colgate Coupon, wait for the .99cent sale and look it's free.

Learn your store prices, get to know if the sale price is really a sale or just clever marketing. Remember grocery stores are looking to make a profit. It’s about knowing what to buy, when to but it and having the coupons to make it really work for you, not your store.


Set a budget. Do not go into the grocery store thinking you will pay whatever it totals at the register. Instead make a list before you go, estimate the price of the items on a shopping list with the coupon you will use. If your budget is 200$, your list should total 200$. Cut out anything you don't need especially if it isn't on sale. Again ordering the Couponizer is great because it includes lists and other tools.

Many people think that if they use coupons they will be buying items they don't really want or use. This isn't true. If there is an item that is free with a coupon, or just a few cents, please don't forget you can donate those items. Food banks and shelters are always in need of donated goods. Also, you can start saving on the cost of gifts. By putting together cute baskets of cake mixes, frosting, icings etc. for example you can gift the baskets to teachers, your postman, your UPS man as a thank you instead of having to run out for the 25$ Starbucks/ Chili's/ Visa gift cards we all so often run out for at the last minute.
It's a way that even in this economy you can still afford to show your appreciation to the people that provide service to you.

Don't get frustrated and give up. Learning how to coupon and save is a process. Try starting with 10-20 coupons for sale items and see how you do. Go from there.
