Why was I gone?
Just life. Busy with life. We had a fun filled summer, full of sunny days and "summer camp" (what we called our 3 days/week engaging a trio of brothers to accompany us on all our summer time adventures.
Then this past month I returned to work full time. I took a new position at a new agency and The Ogre gained the title of full time House Spouse.
I am eager to show you some of the things we have been up to. My friend Laura told me I should write daily, or every other day, which at one point I was, but for now I am aiming for a minimum of weekly with my new segment:
Rainbow Outlet sales and coupon match ups!!!
Okay, so I know of only two outlets, the Midway and the Maplewood Rainbows, and I have never gone to either, but I would like to check them out so I might as well do some matchups! And if I am matching up I may as well share my findings.
