Save Save all about Saving

The other day I was sitting at the table looking at the newspaper adds for Groceries.  In another add there was many things on sale but I didn't want to go to 3 different stores.  So it goes to back a week ago when I went to the big W to get a few things and there was a nice gentleman that had the same ideas as us for dinner was lasagna.  We pick up or noodle the go get the cheese.  He told me that they will do a price match that another store had it on sale.  I was like oh yeah Thank you and went on my way and meet up at the next stop.  And he noticed that I picked up cottage cheese and ricotta cheese.  He asked if I put the cottage cheese in with it.  So I explained to him how I did it and he went on his way.  So let get back to looking at the adds I made my list on what I was going to make for the week by what was on sale mostly.  And off to the big W.  List and the adds so if they had any questions I would have it.  When checking out I had no problems.  1. So my new things is to save save were ever we can.  That is one of our goals.  So what we save we can put back for our adoption.  2. Big goal is have 7,000 saved by march.  March 1 have application filled out and sent back in.  4. If we purchase soda (Randy's bad habit) or tea at the gas station that's fine but then we have to put a 1.50 in our adoption pot for each drink that was bought.  So this year 2013 is all about trying to cut back a little more and put that money back. 

All over the place

It is getting closer to March. I been talking with Randy on my thinking, rethinking and so on about were we are suppose to go.  He is so much better at believing in were we are going and believing that we can do it.  Awhile back we have set some goals for our self's on getting a few things done.  I look back on those and we cant cross any of them off.  So there are a few things that we are doing different is we redid our GOAL list.  And we are going to keep it were we can SEE it.  Not tucked away in a notebook.  And we are going from there.  I have been having a hard time on were we are to go and do.  I thought we were lead another way and it turn out we were not.  So we are going to try and stay on our plan A not plan B's.  So March 1st we are going to fill out the application for Holt to adopt hoping from China.  I'm excited but so scared.  Scared because of many reasons.  1.  Is it going to be a NO!  I have been reading some other blogs that I follow and on one of them she hit it right on the head on how I was feeling.  Thank you Kelly.
I also signed up to receive the emails on No More Perfect Mom 31 day challenge.  Day 19 Thank you.

No- because we do not reach the income level
No- over weight- working on getting some weight off I want to be able to walk the great wall, and be healthier for my family and myself.
No-Because of past- I have had a hard life (I grew up in FC) and have had to receive some counseling.
And many more that i cant think of at the moment

Also what others think:
We have four children already why would we want more?  Don't you think you have enough children to worry about?
Why China?
