Swagging With Swag Bucks

I've been working hard to save money these days; clipping coupons, comparing prices, making do, and doing without. Sound familiar? Are you doing the same thing?

Well, I've been having fun while saving money by earning Swag Bucks.

What is a Swag Buck? It is a virtual dollar that can buy real things.

Really, it is a search engine that rewards you for searching the web. You can earn Swag Bucks by completing surveys, watching videos, looking for codes or even trading in games or old cell phones.

My favorite way to redeem my Swag Bucks is to buy $5 Amazon.com gift cards. I'll show you tomorrow what I just purchased for Hubs with my SB (Swag Bucks).

Want to get started earning SB? It's easy:

Go to Swag Bucks (click on the logo above or below to get there quickly) and create an account. It's so easy to do and as soon as you're registered, you'll be rewarded with 30 SB - not a bad way to start!

Install SB as your homepage (if you want to) to make it easy to use as you search the web. **I use SB to log into Facebook and I've been rewarded many times with SB. Fun!

If you join Swag Bucks with my referral link, I'll earn some SB. Just wanted you to know. Thanks.

How To Make Your Own Exercise Bike For Next To Nothing

Remember back in April when I had a kidney transplant? Well, the kidney is doing great (thanks, Cathy , for taking such good care of it when you owned it). There was one little glitch, however. During surgery, the retractors they used caused some nerve damage in my right leg. When I woke up from surgery, I couldn't move or feel my leg. The docs felt like the feeling would come back but the paralysis had them stumped. A visit to a neurologist ruled out a stroke and a CT scan showed some fluid which was pressing on L4 and L5 (medical talk which means I couldn't feel or move part of my leg). The prognosis is good and I'm recovering pretty quickly. In fact, I've left my cane behind and I'm walking freestyle without falling. My next goal is to be able to drive. I've been itching to get back to exercising (physical therapy doesn't count) because my medication causes me to gain weight and I need to burn some calories. Running? - n...

Plans For A DIY Exercise Bike Stand

Thank you to so many of you who emailed me about plans for the DIY Exercise Bike Stand . I apologize that it has taken me so long to get the measurements to you, but they are finally here! The wood was purchased at Home Depot and the bike pegs were purchased at Walmart in the bike section. The bike we used for this project is a 24" 12 speed bike (I'm a shorty). I used the hardest gear while riding, but this set-up does not allow you to really get much resistance (for building muscle). It was great for getting my legs moving after some nerve damage. I also wanted to burn calories and get my heart rate up and this did the trick. If you have any questions, just shoot me an email.

The Finished Kitchen Remodel

Yes, we survived the kitchen remodel and I'm back to blogging again - I hope. The kitchen has been done for about 6 weeks now but between my camera breaking and some glitches with loading photos into blogger, I've been an absentee blogger. A big thanks to those of you who were concerned about me and checked in on me. So. . . do you want a tour of the new space? A few months ago, my kitchen looked like this. . . And this. . . And this. . . And there was a window looking down from our upstairs bedroom. . . Then we decided to remodel and went through this for awhile. . . And some of this. . . The room was finally starting to take shape. And then we had this!! I wasn't sure what I was going to do about the island. I really liked the functionality of the piece, but it was too busy and too white. My new cabinets are a vanilla color and the white island was just stark. ...
