Fitness Friday – Fighting Depression
My Progress for last week was wonderful and with the small amount of movements I’ve been feeling better. I had my follow up with my doctor and I’ve been released.

TJ Maxx and Marshalls Children’s Costumes are very affordable #giveaway
October 2, 2009 · Filed Under giveaway · 679 CommentsI know I’ve written about going to Boston a few times but I’m very grateful for TJX (Marshalls and TJ Maxx) for inviting me to their Mom Bloggers Event. I also want to share all that fun with you. While I was there, I purchased a Halloween costume for my daughter for 15.00. It is a purple fairy costume that came with a So I know that they start very low. I’m not sure how high they go but I know that TJMaxx and Marshalls are excellent at keeping costs down because of how they purchase their high quality materials.
Just an FYI…
They do purchase in season designer clothing, purses, accessories, and retail items.
They purchase the same stuff you can find at Macy’s, Gucci, and Guess for much less and share the discounts with us.
They have less than 15 percent that is defective, and by defective I mean, a manufactured defect that is not detectable to the naked eye. The manufacturer just decided it was slightly less than perfect.
Since Halloween is a ton of fun for me I asked if I could host a giveaway. I know you can find one and still have money left over; and rumor is that if you wait until the day of Halloween, that they go on SUPER DUPER clearance on that day; instead of the day after. I know that was the longest run on sentence in the history of Mom Start.

The Children’s Place Halloween Costumes are on sale #giveaway
October 1, 2009 · Filed Under giveaway · 168 CommentsEvery time I’m in a mall and pass by the Children’s Place I have to stop in and take a peak. I love their clothes. We have an outlet or two that are in the WA area and I find even more savings there. I’m even apart of their points program where you get a point for every dollar spent. I just can’t get enough of their store. It’s funny but I can even tell when another child is wearing something from The Children’s place. That’s how familiar I am with their store.
I just got an e-mail telling me that their fall line is out. Their Christmas Clothes are out. So shop early to get the sizes you want. Not only is their fall line out but it’s on sale and so are the Halloween costumes.
Get in the Spooky Spirit with The Children’s Place this Halloween. The Children’s Place has once again designed a variety of unique costumes to outfit every trick-or-treater. Find costumes for all kids – there are costumes available for girls, boys and newborns! Each costume and accessory is created with the same attention to detail, quality and value that they have come to expect from The Children’s Place. The ultra-durable costumes last long after trick-or-treating is over for dress-up sessions all year long. Every costume is machine washable and made of comfortable fabrics that, unlike many costumes on the market, never irritate or itch. Plus you won’t break the budget! Great costumes with all the extras at goblin good prices – costumes from $22.50 – $29.50.
I love buying different accents that The Children’s Place has to offer. I often buy my daughter all the pairs of tights that I can find in her size. Because by Halloween they are usually on sale already. We love wearing thick tights around here because of the rain. It’s also a great way to stay warm while trick or treating.
The Children’s Place has generously offered one reader of Mom Start a Halloween bag. That’s quite a fun treat. Costumes are already on sale for under 16.00 and the tights are under give. I need to run over there before they run out of tights.
To Enter:
Visit the Children’s place and tell me which costume you like the most
