Ali:  "Mom, why are you so happy?"
Me:  "Because Mrs. Shiloh bought me something at a yard sale today...."
Ali:  (Puzzled look)
I know it's a little bit "schoolgirlish" to bounce around the house suppressing squeals, but Crystal is my favorite blogger, and has been for a few years since I discovered blogging, and  I OWE a ton of thanks to her for teaching me couponing, frugal tips, and also encouraging me in my role as a Christian wife and mother.  Someday if we visit our friends in Kansas, I hope to meet her!  But until then, it's exciting enough that one of my best friends got to meet her and bought me something at her yard sale!!!  *And how weird is it that both Crystal and Shiloh gave birth to their third kids on the same day!!!*
(My friend Shiloh is back home in Kansas house-hunting for a few days since they are moving to that area in a month.  Their house sold to the first people that looked at it here---have I mentioned how hard it is to find anything remotely affordable here?  I wanted to buy their house but my hubby wants to be a bit more financially secure before we take that step, which is wise!  The Blasdels house was a REALLY good deal!  And since housing is so cheap in Kansas they won't have to buy a fixer-upper this time around!)
