Weekly Rewind: March 24-25

Welcome to our “Weekly Rewind” — a time to look back at some of the best freebies and deals still available. I know many people are busy during the week, so this gives you a chance to see if there is anything of interest to you!

If you’re on Facebook, I hope you’ll join my new Motherhood on a Dime group if you’d like to see all of the deals there each day. I’ll be posting them there instead of on my Motherhood on a Dime page – although you are welcome to join me both places! You can check out this post if you wonder what in the world I’m talking about!

Life Rewind:

It was spring break, and the girls and I got to go on a few new adventures. First, we went ice-skating…it’s been quite a while since I’ve gone and the girls had never gone. They loved it and want to try again soon. We also took in Disney on Ice. Before my brother-in-law died, he had encouraged my sister (all the way back in January) to take her girls, so I wanted to make sure they were able to go. It was difficult, but it was a really sweet time to watch my little-bitty nieces’ eyes light up as they watched the show.

This week also marked the 14th year since I lost my daddy…and his 64th birthday would’ve been today. It’s interesting how grief seems to come in waves and in a circle. Just when I think I’m doing okay, bam…it hits again. It seems like I should know this by now, but I guess each new loss adds another element to the grief journey. Though life will never be the same, I will be glad when we can find a “new” normal. I think it will still be a while though…
