Making your home a Haven Monday

1. Refresh your spirit
Today I didn't wake up early enough to have a quiet time but the kids and I cried out to God for strength and joy to get our work accomplished today. Mondays are especially hard since weekends tend to make us slack around here.


2. Morning Routine-I have yet to establish this as this is my first Haven post!



3. Take time to plan
My list for today:
Clean living room and front room(done)
Fold laundry and put away
Start other laundry(done)
Organize something!


4. What's for dinner
Tonight we're having chicken tacos. I've got chicken breast with taco seasoning in the crockpot. I'll shred it later and chop up the toppings.


5. Do something!
I took pictures and cleaned up our living and family rooms. Major improvement!
Our living room Before:




and after:




Our Family room before:




And after:(you can see my little helpers here too!)

ok-one more trip

Today I hit Cvs for I think the 4th time this week. I don't usually do that but This week I just had to! It paid off because I finally found a bottle of Sambucol and the stuff I got is all stuff we NEED!! None of it goes to the resale/giveaway box!





I got:

Honey Nut Cheerios
Sambucol syrup
Oral B pulsar toothbrushes
John Frieda shampoo/cond
2 ice mountain sport packs
Dove adv. therapy shamp
4 soy joy (the grossest thing I've tried)
2 robitussin
2 CVS paper plates
20 count CVS trash bags
bic candle lighter
and a heating pad because hubby threw out his back today:(

Total before coupons: $122.43
Total after coupons and $66 extra bucks = $9!

I was only happy about the $9 oop because of the heating pad which I had no coupons for and we needed. It was on sale at least! It's getting so hard for me to spend money!

The power to Keep Going!

Remember all those nearly free Energizer batteries? Guess what came today?? the super cute rebate tote! The best part-it works two ways! Works as a tote and a backpack!
