Re: A few totally random questions
1. Where/how do you store coupons for stores/restaurants? In a small collapse-able file in a kitchen drawer.
2. Do you/your H/W/SO use the same toothpaste?No, but we don't share a bathroom either! We have no master, so the kids and I use the upstairs bathroom and DH uses the downstairs bathroom.
3. Do you go to bed at the same time as your H/W/SO, provided you are both home in the evenings?Typically we get in bed at the same time. Most of the time I keep reading after he falls asleep.
4. If you have a K/PreK child, do you keep all their work? Do you have a storage system? No, current project stays on the fridge and then gets tossed when a new one comes in. DD hasn't really brought much home to display from K.
5. For Fun - What is something you're looking forward to in the next couple weeks? Disney vacation!
1. Where/how do you store coupons for stores/restaurants? - I have a kitchen basket-o-crap and they are stored in a folder in there
2. Do you/your H/W/SO use the same toothpaste? - n/a
3. Do you go to bed at the same time as your H/W/SO, provided you are both home in the evenings? - n/a
4. If you have a K/PreK child, do you keep all their work? Do you have a storage system? - that would be a negative, no where to store it, so I just keep my favs. I cycle them out on the fridge when they are new though, the kids are so proud
5. For Fun - What is something you're looking forward to in the next couple weeks? - I honestly can't think of one, single thing.

5. For Fun - What is something you're looking forward to in the next couple weeks?
Apple picking at Hicks Orchards and getting hot fresh apple cider donuts.
1. Where/how do you store coupons for stores/restaurants? I don't! I don't clip coupons and when I try to save ones I usually end up putting them in my purse and forgetting about them until they expire
2. Do you/your H/W/SO use the same toothpaste? No, our sinks are on opposite walls of the bathroom so we each have our own tube.
3. Do you go to bed at the same time as your H/W/SO, provided you are both home in the evenings? Nope, he's a night owl.

3. We go to bed at the same time, not always to sleep at the same time.

1) In the kitchen junk drawer. They are all thrown in there and get mixed up with everything. Its not a system I would rec'd.
2) Yes
3) Usually but not always. One of us might stay up to watch a show or read.
4) Mine is in 4th, I would be completely overrun with paper if I had kept everything. I have a shoebox sized box to hold his stuff. I keep my favorites from throughout the year and stick them in the box. At the end of every year, I go through it and only save 3 or 4 things. By the time he graduates high school, the box should be full.
5) Saturday night, the kids are going to sleepovers and DH and I are going out on the town with our favorite friends. We have hotel rooms and everything.
1. I wish I was savvy enough to clip coupons. Sadly, there are only a handful or so I'll use per year, and I just put them in my purse.
2. No, we don't share toothpaste.
3. Sometimes we go to bed at the same time, sometimes one of us will stay up later.
4. We keep some of their work in all grades, in rubbermaid totes in the basement.
5. We're having our last big BBQ of the season this weekend.
1. Where/how do you store coupons for stores/restaurants? We don't have much of a system. We're so unorganized. I try to put them in my purse so I have them with me.
2. Do you/your H/W/SO use the same toothpaste? Yes.
3. Do you go to bed at the same time as your H/W/SO, provided you are both home in the evenings? Not typically. I get up in the mornings with the kids so I go to bed relatively early and he stays up late to work and then sleeps in.
4. If you have a K/PreK child, do you keep all their work? Do you have a storage system? I keep most of his work. I do have a storage system, but it's not really functional right now, so his stuff is mainly in boxes that we haven't unpacked yet since we moved over the summer. The work he brought home recently is in the car still. I repeat, we are VERY unorganized.
5. For Fun - What is something you're looking forward to in the next couple weeks? Nothing in particular, which is kind of sad.
Alex (11/14/06) and Nate (5/25/10)
"Want what you have, do what you can, be who you are." - Rev. Forrest Church
2. Yes, we use the same toothpaste
3. if we are both home we almost always go to bed at the same time (although often one of us will stay up reading while the other actually sleeps). Lately though DH has been working insane hours so I go to bed before he gets home
4. No. We display a lot of items (he has a clothespin line on th wall in his room that we use and put 1 or 2 in the kitchen) and pieces I really like I save in an art portfolio. Everything else goes.
5. DH's work calming down! Also taking a Vermont getaway in a few weeks.
1. Where/how do you store coupons for stores/restaurants? Restaurant ones are shoved in the cabinet and store coupons go in a pocket of my diaper bag.
2. Do you/your H/W/SO use the same toothpaste? Yes.
3. Do you go to bed at the same time as your H/W/SO, provided you are both home in the evenings? Sometimes, but he usually goes to bed before me.
4. If you have a K/PreK child, do you keep all their work? Do you have a storage system? No. I keep the stuff I think is really cute or shows their development in some way. I think I might start scanning or taking photos of their stuff and figuring out some way to display that or put it all in a photo book.
5. For Fun - What is something you're looking forward to in the next couple weeks? My DH starting a new job and the bigger paycheck that goes with it.
1. Where/how do you store coupons for stores/restaurants? We have a drawer in our kitchen that has all the pizza fliers/coupons, and other restaurant coupons and take out menus in it.
2. Do you/your H/W/SO use the same toothpaste? Yes.
3. Do you go to bed at the same time as your H/W/SO, provided you are both home in the evenings? Not always. He's a night owl and I"m usually exhausted by 10pm.
4. If you have a K/PreK child, do you keep all their work? Do you have a storage system? My stepkids are 9 and 8 and we keep all the things they bring us from school. Usually, it'll hang on the fridge or be displayed for a while, until the next thing comes home and then it goes in the scrap book or the "memories bin" in the garage.
5. For Fun - What is something you're looking forward to in the next couple weeks? DD's halloween costume getting ehre and being able to take her halloween pictures!
1. I don't normally use coupons.
2. No, I will only use Crest cinnamon toothpaste; he uses anything minty.
3. Not usually. He either works quite late, or if he is home he will go to bed early. I am the night owl and usually don't turn in until 12 or 1am.
4. No, I only select certain pieces to keep. Last year (her first year of preschool), I bought several plastic containers with lids (8.5x11 paper sized - they're not huge) with the idea of having one for each year of school. I'm thinking about maybe consolidating them, though, since one container per year, per child might get to be a lot.
5. visiting the pumpkin patch
1. Where/how do you store coupons for stores/restaurants?
I throw them in a drawer in the kitchen and then forget to check them... not a great system.
2. Do you/your H/W/SO use the same toothpaste?
Yes
3. Do you go to bed at the same time as your H/W/SO, provided you are both home in the evenings?
Sometimes
4. If you have a K/PreK child, do you keep all their work? Do you have a storage system?
No. I keep maybe 10% of what she brings home or makes at home. Right now it's in a stack on a shelf in her closet.
5. For Fun - What is something you're looking forward to in the next couple weeks?
Going to L.A. for a good friend's wedding. I'm excited for her, but also super excited that I get 4 days allll to myself!!
