Good morning. My dad likes his cup of joe. I enjoy tea. This week when I shopped, I found a box of tea on sale for $2 and I had a $1 coupon. (Savings of about 75%) It's Spiced Apple Cinnamon and I love it! With a blop of honey, it's quite enjoyable.
but seriously... do we need more tea? Have you seen our cupboard full of tea? Usually we're the loose-leaf type. I probably have 20 bags of tea to try, brew pots and tea balls. And yet I buy a box of tea bags! I make no sense! (yes I do... I like a bargain).
I'm addicted to couponing and I'm not afraid to admit it. At Albertson's I spent $82 and saved $96. At Safeway, spent $50 and saved $73.
I have a customer on my paper route that gives me his Oregonian coupons. He leaves them for me each Monday morning. He's such a blessing to me. He saves me oodles of money!
My mother in law gave me old vinyl disk holder pages to put my coupons in. I alphabetize by brand name or manufacturer. Also food and non-food. I carry my book with me to each store, just in case something on the clearance rack catches my eye. I like free!
I ♥ coupons.

Delight
My grandma lived up to her name... she was truly a Delight to know. She earned her reward and now lives with Jesus up in Heaven.
Today is her funeral service. We'll get to remember all the wonderful times with her and view pictures from baby until December. All the family will be there. We'll laugh and cry, but we won't be sad for her. How can you when you know she's now walking on healthy legs, her mind is now clear and she's with her mom and dad and brothers. Someday I'll be with her.
The hardest part is knowing my Grandpa Cecil is alone. His True Love is gone. He devoted the last several years to 100% caring for her needs. and he'd do it all over again. They were best friends and you could tell.
So I look forward to today's service. We get to honor her and worship Jesus.
"What a joy it is to know my Heavenly Father loves me so and gives to me my Jesus!"
"It is well, it is well with my soul."
"How great Thou art!"
