Twin Telepathy
Samantha had the full head of hair.
You all know me, but somebody you don’t know is my sister. More specifically, my twin sister, Samantha. She and I are fraternal, complete polar opposites. She’s the shy tomboy and I consider myself the more outgoing girly girl. I like make-up, she prefers animals. I go to parties while she stays home. At 20 years old, we couldn’t be more different.
….and she still had more hair…
Does this mean we don’t share a connection? definitely not. I love her and she loves me. We are best friends. Maybe it was a coincidence when we had a telepathy episode, or maybe it was just that twin telepathy. I’ll let you be the judge..
Samantha and Me
Last year, about this same time, my sister and I were both showing signs of pregnancy; morning sickness, heightened smell, weird cravings, the whole nine yards. I was not even aware yet that she was going through this. I went to work that morning, felt perfectly fine. Thirty minutes in to my shift, I blacked out and hit my head on the wall. My charge nurse (I was working as a CNA) helped me gain my composure. She did her routine question: have you ate? yes, are you nauseous? no, and so on til’ she threw me a curve ball – Are you pregnant? umm pause, think, no? I wasn’t sure. Finally the decision came for me to head home, my mom picked my up. She was frantic and simply a hot mess. She shot me the same questions as my charge nurse. I gave her all the same answers.
We finally got back to my house and my mom was pacing. This was clearly a lot to tae on for her and we didn’t even know the answer to the golden question. It would explain a lot though. Finally, I got her calmed down and relaxed when the phone rang. I just knew it wasn’t good. A call from both daughters, a recipe for disaster. Only it wasn’t a call. We both received a picture message, from Sam.
The two of us a couple of weeks ago.
I don’t think you could describe the picture as subtle by any means. No,not Sam, she forward us both a picture of not one, but 4 pregnancy tests. All reading positive. I doubted it. All of it. Two sisters, twins, pregnant at the same time? Not possible, I hoped.
We finally got mom to finish hyperventilating, made doctor appointments, and waited for the next morning to come. We got to the appointments and pee on those golden sticks. My results? negative. Samantha? Positive. (hence Aneiha).
So why was I having all the symptoms? I wasn’t pregnant. We all boiled it down to twin telepathy. We share such a close bond that I shared her pregnancy symptoms with her. Now some people may not believe, and some will. What I wanna know, is what do you believe? Is twin telepathy legit?

Car Troubles…
So last night Bebo and I decided to have a lil’ adventure. We filled my hatchback with all the pillows and blankets we could find, loaded in our laptop and movie selection, rolled down the windows (due to such nice weather here), and got ready for our makeshift drive-in. We had no intentions of leaving the car until morning came.
Little did we know car troubles were at bay. Around 4 am this morning, Bebo woke shivering like a freight train. I hopped in the front and stuck the key in the ignition. Nothing. Nada. Not even a click. My question is, why? How did I have battery at 10 pm and by 4 am my car was completely dead? Any gear heads out there have an idea?
Tanks to the help of my moms boyfriend though, we are up and running again. For now….

Cut, Clip, and Save
Coupons are as easy to get today as a carton of milk. You can find them on the internet, in the mail, printable coupons from websites, newspapers, store ads, etc. You get the picture. Some people take it to the extreme, hence the show: Extreme Couponing.
I personally don’t go to extremes. I don’t need a stock pile in my spare room like i’m expecting the zombie apocolypse. I do, however, like to save money.
Many stores have their own individual policies. Kroger doubles all coupons up to a dollar on Tuesdays and Thurdays. (here in Ky, you maywant to check otherwise at your own location) Some people may not know that stores such as walmart with price match as long as you bring in your ad for the competing store.
Here are some links that may help you get started on your savings:
