On December 12 and 13 Sears is celebrating Green Monday by taking it to Tuesday for two days of money saving madness.  Green Monday is the term that online retailers use to describe the 2nd Monday in December.  The deals are similar to those that you experienced on Black Friday, but without the crowds and being reminded of that catchy, yet horrible song.  Continue reading Green Monday, Coupons and more at Sears, plus a $100 giveaway

Sears wants to be your gifting destination this shopping season

I’m really thrilled to be part of the Holiday Blogger Ambassador Program at Sears.  Regardless of what holiday you’re shopping for this year Sears has something for that person on the list.  For us, it’s Christmas and we purchased a handful of ‘needed’ items for the house.

Overweight children according to Chunk from The Goonies

We love The Goonies in our house.  It’s one of those movies that can stop me and my wife from whatever we’re doing to sit down and watch.    In The Goonies Chunk was played by Jeff Cohen, who at the time was a very chubby, excitable tween.

Daddy Mojo takes the Holiday Shopping Challenge at Sears

My holiday shopping is almost done.  The 2-year old toddler, Jake and Charlie, our 2-month old are all sorted out with toys and clothing.  My wife and I decided that we would not give gifts to each other this year; instead we’d spend that money on needed things in the house or a gift for ourselves. I trust my wife that this isn’t a trick and that she really means it this year. Continue reading Daddy Mojo takes the Holiday Shopping Challenge at Sears

DIY a stay-at-home dad can do: fix outdoor lighting

When my wife and I moved into our house it came with an extensive outdoor lighting set up.  In the front yard alone there are 20 lights.  In the back yard there are about 20 more, all of the lights are metal and the entire system runs on three transformers.  We live on a normal sized lot, mind you, it’s just a very well lit lot.  Continue reading DIY a stay-at-home dad can do: fix outdoor lighting
