cha-ching.

It's been awhile since I've posted & all with VERY good reason.
Gabe & I ended up staying in Lakeland, but moving to a different apartment!
It's a much bigger apartment, but it's a little bit older-
over all, I like it very much.

There are some iffy things, like no pantry, older appliances & random lighting fixtures,
however it's much more spacious, we've got PLENTY of room for my crafting
& we're saving $130 a month on rent.

The apartment is still in boxes & things aren't quite where I want them to be yet.
BUT, I've taken on a new hobby..
COUPONING!

I want to post some pictures of my savings today!!

Also, I plan to be a great blogger starting later in August.
I've got plenty to post about!
