Oh My!! Updates over the last few months.

Oh wow, I have been busy. It has been months since I posted on this thing. However, I hope to get back into the groove of this again. However, since I have been on here last, I have started school again for Business in Human Management instead of Education for my bachelor degree. I have found a great spreadsheet to keep track of how much I am spending each month and how much I have spent with coupons so far since January 1, 2012. I can say what a great job so far. I have gotten a stockpile started real good that it has finally taken me this long to get. I have gotten a shelf to get my stockpile straight where I can see what I have. Pictures are to follow.


First topic is that I change my degree and decided to go for my bachelor in Business in Human Management.  With the idea that teachers are being laid off and with the economy, I started to rethink my decision for my degree. Classes started in the beginning of March 2012 and the classes are five week long. I am in my second class with only two more weeks left before I start my third class. If you know me, you know that I hate the learning teams that UOP has and this has been since I started my degree for teaching. However, I continue to work toward the degree. Kudos for me to keep going. There are good learning teams and there are bad learning teams. This class happens to have a bad learning team. However, two more weeks to go and I will start the next class and hope the learning team is better then. 


Second topic is the spreadsheet that I am using to keep track of how much I am saving and spending. The spreadsheet is separate by monthly with a summary.  This includes meats that has been purchased, as well as household goods and groceries.
Not bad!! I got almost 3,000.00 worth of food.
Third topic is my Stockpile!!!!! I am so happy with my stockpile that I have gotten for food. I have a small stockpile of household items that are spread out through the whole house in certain rooms. However, I have pictures of my food stockpile. Below are pictures. 


The before stockpile.
Dining room table is full of food that is in need of a spot to be.

Last shopping trip still in the bags

The cabinet is full of stuff with no room.
The side is a spot for a time being.


The after stockpile. Boy, these look a lot better than the before.Look, I added to make my stockpile more understanding. However, I am in need of another one, though. Gotta save money for the next one. 
Cans and jars good with spices


Box goods, baking, juices and snacks. Look at all those juices. 


That is both of the food goods beside each other.
However, this evening, I took a few things off the shelf and put them in a few bags to help someone out.
