Rachel's Random Rambelings

I've spent more hours than I would like to admit this week trying to make invitations for my daughter's 10th birthday party.
Nothing is going right, and I honestly have no clue what I am doing wrong.For some reason the font I have written in my Silhouette program isn't printing anything other than the registration marks.I have these beautiful invitations that won't print.So frustrated.
I stopped for gas this morning and it cost me almost $80 to fill my tank.It was $4.15 a gallon for the cheap stuffCrazy!
My husband always pumps his gas to an even number...usually right on the dollar.Not sure why.
I could totally relate with Anna this week when she talked about driving her mom nuts.I don't buy Kleenex either.Such a waste for something you blow your nose on.We use sleeves...and toilet paper...and a good blow in the shower every morning works too.
I have an addiction to generic pledge from the Dollar Store.I have been using it to clean everything.I use it to clean my shower doors.I use it to clean my granite counter tops.I use it to clean my stainless appliances.
I am obsessed with groupon and living social deals.Love them.
I bought a living social deal for $100 worth of dog training thinking it would get me at least a 4 week class.It only worked for an hour of training.It seemed like they would really help us be able to train our sweet pup, but it costs around $1000 for their program.I'm contemplating sending my kids through it.
Last week when the temperatures were in the 80's in the midwest I missed living there.Spring is such a delightful time in the midwest.Today, we have rain and yuck.
My youngest son has been growing and every single pair of his jeans either has a hole in the knee or is too short.I shopped for a sale on jeans, but still had to pay $12.99 for a new pair at Old Navy.I miss garage sales.
My youngest two kids who are three years apart wear the same size shoe and clothes.Too bad one's a boy and the other is a girl.
Next week is spring break for the kids and I hate that we aren't going somewhere warm to enjoy it.I miss the sun.
I got two pairs of free Victoria's Secret underwear this week.Sometimes it pays to be on the mailing lists.
Our electric meter hasn't worked since we moved in over a year ago.My husband called several times to let the city know that we weren't being charged.They finally came out and fixed it this week.Now I have to stop using my hair dryer as a space heater all day.
You can still make a donation to support the efforts to bring fresh water to Uganda.You can donate only a dollar and I would love you forever.
My sewing machine died during The Pillowcase Project and I can't seem to fix it.I've never had such a strong urge to sew in my life.
Sometimes I watch my dog sleep the same way I used to watch my kids sleep when they were babies.
I saw The Hunger Games last weekend with my 13 year old son and two of his friends.I'm glad they didn't make me sit in a different row even though I would have if they asked.
I started taking vitamin D a few weeks ago and I think it helps.I sleep deeper and don't get as bummed out with the long rainy season we have here.Maybe I should stop this and go take one...
What's random with you this week?
