Cougar Camp and a Deal

Cougar Camp is a fun name for Saturday school! I just got back from teaching at Saturday school. However, I enjoyed myself immensely. I only had seven 1st graders. If only that was the case everyday. I love my job each day, but after today I remember why I teach. The kids were so excited to see me, were having so much fun learning, and I was able to strength our relationships. I even found $20 on my way into school:)

While I was making money, my husband was out spending in on a new fridge for our new house. (Needless to say, I didn't make that much) The one we have now was a steal at $200 because it has a few dents, nothing a magnet does not hide. The new one was even a better deal. It retails at $1300, and Brian got it for 50% off. He wheeled and dealed with the manager and got it for that price only if he took it right away. It does have a little scratch on the front, but nothing appliance paint can't take care of. So thanks to Uncle Dan because he drove over to Lowe's and picked it up for us. It is a side by side and has a water filter!!! Then, Brian mentioned he needed to pick up a gallon of paint and the manager gave him a new gallon of paint for $5!

Now, we need to keep a look out for a deal on a micorwave and stove (the ones at the new house aren't the best).

When you buy your next fridge, you should find a dealer that has a service department. That way, if something happens down the road, you can call them instead of an 800 number! :) Good buy though.

I'm glad to hear things are going well and hope your house sells soon.

Sending good thoughts your way.
