Aloha Friday, Monster Mash

It's Friday! With Halloween on Monday, I'm sure there are tons of parties and spooky events happening this weekend. Normally, I would go all out, but since I've been recovering from surgery, I haven't been feeling it, so I'll just throw on my trusty horns and just call it a touch of evil :o)

I'll be heading to my local pub tonight for some good music from a local band. The pub's having a costume contest, so it'll be fun to see what creative things people have come up with.

So, what will you be doing this weekend? Will you dress up for Halloween?


I love to read your responses, so answer in a comment, and then head over to IslandLife808 for more Aloha Friday fun.

New Horror shirts and $5 Coupon for CrazyDogTshirts.com

I love CrazyDogTshirts.com! They always have fun, unique shirts that you don't see everywhere else.

Halloween is a big deal in our house. We love decorating, eating candy, and of course, horror movies. I'm a little picky about what scary movies I'll watch, but hubby is a huge horror movie fan! When he saw the new horror shirts at CrazyDogTshirts, he wanted them all, but he had to pick just one.

Music Monday, Animals

It's Music Monday! Today's theme is Animals. There are really quite a lot of songs about animals or with animals in them, so it was hard to decide. Ultimately, I picked these because they make me laugh. I hope they help you start your week off with a smile. Have a happy Monday!

How to Use Gift Cards to Save on Holiday Shopping

I know Halloween isn't even here, yet, so it seems early to think about holiday shopping, but... It is never to soon to think about ways to save on holiday shopping!

Before you know it, it will be Thanksgiving, then Black Friday, and then, sure enough, it's Christmas Eve, and you're rushing to get it all done! And, if you're waiting 'til the last minute, you're probably not saving!

So here's my plan to save on holiday shopping, now. First, I'm heading over to PlasticJungle.com to buy discounted gift cards. Plastic Jungle has no fees, and shipping is always free, and with their great selection of stores and restaurants, you're sure to find a discounted gift card that you want.

Here's how I'll use them for my holiday savings this year:

I'm sure you've got those picky people on your shopping list that cause you too much of a headache to do any real shopping for. So, for these picky people, you can make them happy with a gift card they want, but at a discounted price that you like. At Plastic Jungle, you can buy a discounted gift card, and save up to 35%!

Buying discounted gift cards for gifts, that's a no-brainer, but have you ever thought of buying a discounted gift card for you to do your shopping with? That's exactly what I'm going to do!

I love shopping at Kohl's because they always have great deals, and they always have coupons  for 15-20% off their already low prices. So, I'm going to buy a discounted Kohl's gift card and save up to 16 % off. Before I even start shopping, I'll already be saving. Combine that with all those great coupons and deals, and WOW! That's some smart shopping!

I don't know about you, but at the holidays, I tend to go over board with shopping. I forget all about my budget, and just keep on shopping until I don't have anytime left. Then I spend January trying to catch up on my debt. But, this year will be different. This year, I'm only going to shop with gift cards. By buying my gift cards in advance, I'll know just how much I can spend, and I'll stick to that budget. I can buy a discounted Home Depot card, (and save 7%) for all those DIY gifts, and some of my holiday decor needs. Since Bath and Body Works always has good deals, and all those fun soaps make great gifts for the girls, I'll pick up a discounted Bath & Body Works card and save 12% before I've even used any coupons!

This year, PlasticJungle.com will be key to my big holiday savings, and to staying on budget. And, after the holidays, if I get any gift cards I don't want, instead of forcing myself to find something with it, I'll sell the gift card and get up to 92% of the value!

Aloha Friday, Scary Movies


Happy Aloha Friday! I can't believe it's Friday, already! This week has really flown by. My brother has been here for the past week. He's in the Army and just got back from 2 years in Korea. It's been so nice hanging out with him. We've mostly been watching movies, (some scary ones, which are not my favorite,) but it's been great just to spend time with my little brother!

My aloha Friday question for you:

Do you like scary movies?

Wordless Wednesday, Hospital View


This was the view from my hospital room at Moffitt Cancer Center. Moffitt did my hysterectomy last week because of cancerous cells in my uterus. They have been so helpful and kind through this whole process. I hope no one has to receive cancer treatment, but if you ever do, I highly recommend seeking help at Moffitt. I couldn't ask for better service!

Got a Great old Post? Link it up at Tuesdays Gone

Welcome to Tuesdays Gone at Life Music Laughter. At Tuesdays Gone, we're breathing new life into old posts every week. And, I bet there are some great old posts that just need to pulled out of the dark into the light!

I didn't have a Tuesdays Gone last week because I was in the hospital, but this week, I'm recovering at home and I can't wait to read some of your great old posts.




Aloha Friday, What kind of patient are you?


Monday was my hysterectomy, and though the surgery took a little longer than expected because of a small complication, overall, it was successful. I'm happy to say I am now cancer free! I'm recovering at home which involves a lot of napping, and movie watching, (thanks for your great movie recommendations last week.) It's only been a few days, but it seems like weeks, already. Hubby is great at taking care of me, but I'm really a terrible patient. I hate having to ask for things, and then when I do ask, I want it right away. I also forget to take my meds, and then complain when something hurts. Bless him for his patience!

My question for you this week:
Are you a good patient?


Music Monday, What's Your Favorite 80's Love Song?

It's Monday, and you know what that means?! Music! At Monday's Music Moves Me, it's 80's day. I'm a child of the 80's, so picking only a few songs was hard. The 80's was full of fun dance songs, but there were also some lasting love songs. Here's a few. Hope you enjoy and have a happy Music Monday 80's style!

1983


1984 (one of hubby's faves)



1985 (I think I wore out my cassette tape on this one.)



1989
