I hope this week turns out to be a better week than last for me. Not only was it hectic, but getting a speeding ticket didn’t help, falling in a parking lot at work didn’t help either, along with the head cold/cough I’m dealing with.

I know this has nothing to do with couponing or shopping, but sometimes you just have to vent. I guess I should add that my youngest son sprained his wrist at hockey practice, so add a trip to the doctor’s to the angst.

On a positive note, even though unpleasant, I did get my mammogram in and my dental appointment taken care of with positive results. And my oldest son also made his college choice (this is a big relief).

It was just one of those weeks!!

So this week, I’m starting with a fresh outlook. And while there is only one coupon insert (RedPlum) in today’s Journal-World, the retail ads are pretty well stacked.
