The Duffles are gone!!! I miss Walking Dead!!!













The duffles left Sunday morning. As you can see the girl duffles are much more stuffed. So much so that my son rented out some space in his duffle for his sister. So no more packing and my husband and I just finish 3 seasons of Walking dead. I miss it so... What am I going to do with myself??? Well there is never a shortage of TV for me. True Blood started this week, True Crimes, Royal Pains, Burn Notice, Veep and a new show Graceland. Of course I still have my Housewives of OC and Jersey and Andy's Cohen's Watch what happened Live. That is just a little bit of what I am watching.  Can't wait for Newsroom to start too!!! Every summer the kids leave my husband and I do a marathon of some sort of popular show we missed live. One summer we did Breaking Bad. This year we are going to start Justified.

Let me know if I a missing something amazing on TV or Netflix.

Sleep Away Camp Packing - Thank You Target Online!!!



It's that time of year again the duffles need to be out on Sunday!!! This year I was in complete denial because it's my 6th year and think I don't need to get much. I was way wrong!!! I brought up the duffles and realize how many things were broken, missing and I forgot about all the stuff I don't let the kids bring home that need to be replace. Usually I go to a million stores looking for the best price driving all over town. This year I just shopped online at Target for most of my needs. First let me say If you shop at Target ever,  you should have the Red Card which offers you automatic 5% cash back and free shipping on all items.  These are just some of the things I bought.... small carpet, foam mattress topper, comforter, fan, conditioner, deodorant.... Not only that, but my son decided that this year he needed 2 foam mattress toppers, of course I already placed my order with Target. He begged and said that all the boys in his bunk have 2 because it is much more comfortable. I just went on the Target website ordered it and it came the same day as the original order. This was no extra cost to me. I never left the living room and I was able to catch up on all my TV shows that I DVR'd while shopping for camp.

Note in this picture all the clothing from both children have not be given to me yet. That is 2 other duffles. I also highly recommend the 2 gallon plastic bags to keep the kids organized. You just put in the shirts, pants, shower stuff.... The kids just take it out and place in the cubby the way you organized it.

I hope this helps some of you, especially you working parents who have no time to shop around.
