Hi Reader,

I hope you're doing well.

I can't believe it's already mid-August. Wow. Where does the time go?! Ok, that's a rhetorical question, but just crazy it's almost back-to-school time.

I realize that for some of you, your kids may already be back in school if they're school age. I hope it's going well if they are.

Our kids don't start online school until the first week in September, so we still have a bit of time left. There are things we need to get set up before then, prepping for the school year, and again once we get their supplies delivered.

Here are some links that should help you get prepared for the school year.

These are our favorites, including new Acer laptops that work much better than the Lenovos we had before. Many other favs here as well.

Have a great week!

I'm also on Teachers Pay Teachers! Unfortunately, they don't have universal coupon codes (yet!), and only allow things related to teaching, but a LOT of my products are over there if you'd prefer to shop on TPT.

. Hi Reader, I hope you're doing well. The blog post I'm sharing today is one that is near and dear to my heart. We're often told that we're never good enough, that we need things such as makeup, hair dye, Botox, sometimes even surgery, to make someone love us, or continue to love us as we age. I'm here to tell you, this is crap, to put it lightly. A HUGE way that we save money every month is NOT buying into all of this.

Easy Ways to Save Money on Groceries Every Week

. Hi Reader, I hope you're doing well. It's a busy time of year for a lot of us, with it being back-to-school season! We also have the busyness of our twins' birthday tomorrow! I can't believe they're already going to be 8. It's been a wild ride so far, and with our first trip to urgent care, in which one twin needed 3 stitches over the summer, it's only getting wilder! I do feel lucky that it took 10 years of parenting 3 boys before we ended up in urgent care needing stitches! All that...
