Good week selling on E-Bay. Sold 8 items for a total of $231.44. Love getting rid of items and making a little extra cash. Super excited. Now to get it all boxed up and mailed. Will be listing about 32 items tomorrow. E-bay lets you list up to 50 per month with no listing fee.
Continuing on my path of minimalism. My goal is more the process than the destination. I want to continue to declutter, organize what is left, only have what I love, need and use. It may take forever to get the point where I feel comfortable with what I have but that is okay too.

Again
Too funny I have found this blog and was able to sign on again. Miracle.
Light snow today, going to a funeral of a friend's mother. Sad time.
Listed 12 items this weekend on E-Bay, will continue to post more this afternoon. Too much stuff to contend with, time to move it out.

Grocery Shopping/Anniversary
Although grocery shopping is not the most exciting thing in the world we went tonight out of necessity. It was kind of fun as we have Albertson's in our area. When shopping there you have to be really careful on the specials as they are very specific. Tonight we did good. We ended up paying $42.48 for a bunch of groceries (didn't take a picture sorry). We used a $5.00 gift card from a previous purchase, and saved $51.54 (savings, coupons and double coupons), and in addition have 3-$5.00 coupons off our next visit. My kind of shopping. I am really trying to concentrate on stocking up on items when they are on a really good sale and I have coupons to match.
Went to Wal-Mart and picked up a manicure set for $2.50 and a few other little items we may use for Christmas gifts next year, stocking stuffer type items.
Today we (Dan and I) celebrated our 28th anniversary. Sometimes it doesn't seem that long, and sometimes seems like forever......we both say this so it is okay. He bought me a very beautiful locket and he got a kaleidoscope.
Work has changed in that we are now on a rotating weekend schedule. There are six of us rotating so will only have to work about 8 weekends a year. I probably won't know what to do with myself after working the past three years every weekend but I'm sure I'll figure something out.

January To Do List
The following is my To Do List for January. I decided to do a monthly list rather than a resolution list as I never seem to keep them. I don't think I do well planning a whole year ahead.
Each month there will be 10 things To Do if I can think of that many.
For January:
1. Join Fitness Center.
2. Read Two Books (1 is complete)
3. Lose 8 pounds.
4. Pay Citicard Balance (Not a big issue, few Christmas gifts).
5. Complete Bella's shrug. (Friend's granddaughter)
6. Complete YoYo Doll.
7. Cut out quilt pieces.
8. Complete Christmas Socks (gift for next Christmas).
9. Finish John's blanket.
10. Make doctor's appointment.
All of the above are easily completed if I stay on task and not get distracted.
The weather is beautiful today in the 20s so will be walking downtown to run some errands. The people in town do not do a very good job at keeping the sidewalks clean so the walkers take to the streets.
Some of my favorite sites for finding deals using coupons and rebates are:
http://www.dealseekingmom.com/
http://www.moneysavingmom.com/
http://www.yourcouponbuddy.com/
http://www.coupons.com/
If you are into doing the rebates, CVS ECB, using coupons these are great sites.
