Somewhat of an update.


 
 
 
Things are beyond busy here…. which is pretty normal for me. But with all the driving to class it eats up my time and I’m trying to work on that huge list of goals. Which means very little fun time on the computer. To top it off my neighbor’s son needs some help with multiplication and division. So on tuesdays and thursday i give him help…..don’t say a word……I know I shouldn’t be doing this but what can i say?
 
As for that goals list, I joined Fitworks to work on that weight loss and getting into shape, it is ok, I already have more energy than I did last week and it has only been 3 days. So that is impressive now if the #’s would just start moving off with it. I am waking up earlier and not bone tired now though, so maybe that goal of 7am will come soon, without too much pain.
 
Cami starts back to art lessons next week on Tuesday for 6 weeks. I have a decent homeschool schedule going, I wish the girls didn’t have so many days off right now. They are messing up my routine…..I did find that having a lesson plan really helped us stay on track so does having everything we need already printed out and ready to go makes a big difference. So that area is going better.
 
I’ve only missed a day or two of Project 365 so that is going ok. Daily bible reading? not happening right now, maybe soon as I get better at all this stuff. I do pray for the family almost daily, make it to bible study, still trying to make it to 1 church service, again it hasn’t happened yet.
 
Caffeine is still my favorite vice, and doesn’t look as if it is getting unviced anytime soon, *I know very well that is not a word don’t remind me.* Classes are ok, I have a ton of homework to do this weekend, film notes to write with a 1 page reflection, a 3-5 page essay on "how I knew I was a boy or girl". This class requires a ton of reading and that is a bit hard to keep up with right now. My stats class is fine, I have my first quiz on next weds. But as long as I review it I’m not too worried. The big thing is not making stupid mistakes.
 
We are looking to buy a freezer and stock up on food so that way maybe we can cut down on our grocery bill. I would really like to see that happen, of course it would be helpful if my kids would eat the food I bring home sometimes. They are picky eaters and I"m so tired of it.
 
We need to look for a used car so that I can save money on gas since I have to drive so far 5 days a week. Yet another problem to solve, it seems that as soon as I get a problem or two solved I have ten more spring up in it’s place to solve. I’m definitely tired of that happening. Ok enough rambling, here’s a photo for you:  A friend of mine gave this photo the perfect caption~~~~~

You have lots going on and so many good goals to achieve. I thought buying a freezer would help me cut our grocery bill but I don’t know that it’s helped much. I need to start carrying cash to the grocery store so I can’t over spend! That would take care of it.

freezers are great things!

We got a freezer at Sears, we LOVE having it, it definitely cuts down on the grocery bill because you can buy in bulk. We also frequently do a cooking day these days where we cook manicotti or something and freeze it so we have meals for those “i just can’t face the kitchen’ days. 🙂
