Moving and stuff

So, we are officially moving. I submitted my move out notice today. It is final. The kids and I will be moving in with Amanda while her husband is deployed to Afghanistan. This makes it a temporary move, for a year or less. But with the money I am going to save, it should put me in a place to get ahead and be able to afford an apartment again. At least, that is the plan.

I am dreading the next few weeks though. I hate moving. Luckily we have over a month, so I can take it slow. However, I keep thinking that, so I haven't even begun yet. If I don't get on top of it, I won't have any time, so I need to start packing. (The biggest problem here though is that I have no boxes! I need to find somewhere to get some quick.)

We are also almost lice free (again). This time for real! I took Annee to Dr Chapman for it yesterday because it has been driving her nuts. I have been good about keeping the live ones out, but haven't been able to get the eggs out, thus causing more live ones.

Well, the doctor gave us a new product to try that is alcohol based instead of an insecticide. Along with this product, he gave us a new nit comb. This comb is a life saver! Annee started using it immediately and by the time we had gotten to mom's to pick up the other kids, she had combed out a ton of nits. Each swipe grabbed some. I was amazed! Hopefully, we won't even have to use the new product. I combed Dessa's and Ty's hair with the new comb and by the time they went to bed, I couldn't find one nit in any of their hair. I am going to keep using it daily for at least a week, to make totally sure they are gone, but it looks very promising! :)

There is a new store nearby that just opened yesterday called Winco Foods. I'm telling you, it is going to replace Walmart for me, if the prices stay the same as I saw last night anyway. They had coupons for Pepsi at $1.98, Kraft Mac & Cheese for $.38, Capri Sun for $.38, Bacon for $.98, and Frosted Flakes for $.98! I spent $13.00 last night and had a bunch of stuff! It was so packed though that there were no carts available and the kids and I could only carry the stuff from the coupons. I will be going back soon so I can get more. The prices on everything were amazing! It is a lot like the old Food4Less that used to be by Grandma's old house. I am so excited, I can actually feed my kids with these prices! I am really hoping the prices stay like they were yesterday and it wasn't just for the grand opening.
