I Love Beach Plants
I love the beach of course… I also love the plants that grow at the beach. I am sure I like them because whenever I see them they bring back good memories of the beach. I started to grow a few of them at my old house before I moved. The ones that I grew from a seed did really well, it was called Beach Morning Glory. I couldn’t find any seeds in stores, so I ended up ordering them on Ebay. I love Ebay, I can find almost anything on there.
Beach Morning Glory is a vine that grows along the dunes to protect them. They can grow up to 50 feet!
The Sea Grape is my personal favorite. I purchased a small one at a local nursery. I planted it in the ground and I thought I would kill it if I tried to pull it up when I moved, so I had to leave it behind. 
Sea Grape can grow in a bush or it can be shaped in to a tree.

4th Day and I Haven’t Spent Any Money!
I moved over the weekend. I really have to watch every single penny that I spend. Sure there are a few things that I need…
Trash Can for Kitchen
Lightbulbs
Night Lights
Batteries
Shower Curtain Liner
But none of those things do I need to drop everything I am doing and run out and purchase. I am sure while I am at Wal-Mart buying those things I will find 5 other items I “need”. So I have opted just make due with what I have.
I could justify running out and buying any one of those items but I am not. I am going to leave that money in my account because right now… I don’t know what my future holds.
Think about all of the misc. items that you purchase. $3.00 here $5.00 there. It isn’t a lot of money but it sure ads up.
When you pay a $35.00 return check fee because your account is $3.00 short… you wish you had that three bucks in your account.
I was tempted to stop by Chick-fil-a on the way home for dinner but I thought about $6.00 dollars of cold hard cash coming out of my pocket and I changed my mind.
I quickly added up what $6.00 a day was over a month and I came up with $180.00.
I would rather save up those $6.00 bucks and buy something that is worth $180.00.
I challenge you to see how many days you can “go without!”

Don’t Shop at Target and Save Money!
I love Target! Everytime I step a foot in there I can’t get out without spending $50.00 - $100.00. I think I need to ban myself from there.
They have the best clearance sales to stock up on stuff that you don’t need! Just in case you didn’t know…
If an item ends in a “4″ on a clearance sticker, it won’t get marked down any further. When I find something I clearance I really want I always try to be patient and wait for it to get marked all of the way down.
Target is constantly changing their products which in turn makes me want to buy it all! That is one concept Wal-Mart and K-Mart haven’t figured out yet. If you bought a set of dishes there five years ago, you could probably go back today and pick up another box of them.
Target has learned how to reach out and grab the money out of my purse! Then I end up with a house full of little knick-knacks that I really didn’t want in the first place. I just thought I wanted it!
It makes a hassel for moving all of this junk. When you are tired of packing boxes and you look around and there is 100 little pieces of what-nots to pack, you just want to leave it behind!
