Rain = Rainboots!

We finally have RAIN!! To my friends in the area, this has been a long-awaited answer to prayer. We've had record-breaking DRY weather, and went something like 80 days without rain, which is basically unheard of around here! We had a wildfire very, VERY close to town, threatening homes and businesses, but PRAISE the LORD, we're all alive and well!

So anyway, you can imagine my disappointment when I found a sale on rainboots, and was able to use a referral credit I had earned from the website, and purchased rainboots for $3.83 SHIPPED!!  I know, right?? .....And then we had nothing but pure, wonderful sunshine :) I do love sunshine, but I was bummed that my cute, pink, polka dotted rainboots weren't getting any use :( They looked so lonely sitting by the door.... My hubby told me the weather report last week, like he always does, and when he said, "Rain Thursday", my first thought was excitement and anticipation of getting to wear my very cute rainboots!! Hey, when you live in an area that gets an enormous amount of rain each year, you have to decide to look cute in the rain, even if your hair doesn't. So today was the first day for these cute rainboots to get out and see some rain. I went to the store. Not the most exciting outing, but a woman in the parking lot did say she liked my boots. Thank you, nice lady, you don't know how much you just made my day... Now, I'm looking forward to the trip to the Pumpkin Patch with the kiddos, when I get to sink these beautiful boots into the mud.. :)

If you want to check out the site I use to get cheap things, even cheaper.... it's called zulily and it's amazing. When you buy something, post it on Facebook, which gives your friends a special code that's linked to your account, and when those friends buy something and it ships, you get $20 credited to your account that you get to spend like free money!! I like free money... Also, go buy scarves at Wal-Mart. This one was $3.77  <----That's free advice. You're welcome :)
