Lifes Like That

As my mother is no longer with us, I make it a point to make sure that the kids are able to spend us my time with my husband’s parents as possible. His mother is sick right now (stomach cancer) so this goal of mine is really important. So, I’d like to share with you all a picture I took of my husband’s mother and our children. The kids really enjoy spending time with Grammie and loved getting their picture taken with her. The thing in life is that you never know what is going to take place in the future, so having these pictures will be a special treat for the children as they get older and it will help to keep their grandmother’s memory alive after she is no longer with us.

So, I hope you all enjoy the photo and when you look at it maybe it will make you think a little bit about your family and how important they are too you.

As most of you are aware, one of my favorite hobbies to partake in is kniiting. I always have knitting needles and yarn close by just in case the mood strikes. Well I’m happy to report that one of my kids has acquired the knitting bug and no, it’s not my daughter. It’s my youngest son. He has a lot more patience for this type of thing then she does. Because he is right handed so it is easier for me to teach him how to knit and her being left handed it’s harder to teach her, I think this maybe why he has more interest then she does. So, I just wanted to give you all an update and let you know how their making out with their knitting adventures. He’s doing really well. But, she has lost interest.

Have you ever considered have liposuction? If so what would be your reasons for wanting to have this procedure done? I have never considered this type of procedure myself, but do know people who have been considering having it done. So just for curosity’s sake I have doing a little research into this type of procedure and have found the information I have found to be quite facinating. I have found that one of the most highly recommended facilities that do this type of procedure is at the Los Angeles liposuction facility.

This facility has very highly trained and qualified staff that have been doing these procedures for a very long time. They are on hand to answer any and all concerns you may have and are very knowledgeable in this field. With any type of procedure there is always a certain amount of risk, but with these highly trained staff the risk is minimalized. So, if your like some of my friends and have been considering having this done, why not stop by this site and see how their expertise in the field can help eliviate some of your concern and questions.

You know that if we didn’t need to eat, we would all be rich.  Last night my husband and I and the children went grocery shopping.  We only bought the basics, not a whole lot of extra stuff and I was blown over with the cost of it all.  For less than 10 grocery bags, the bill came to almost $200.  That is outrageous!  I have no idea how people survive that live on a limited income and my hat goes off to them knowing that they need to purchase these groceries for their family on a limited budget.  The thing that really irks me the worst about the high cost of groceries is the fact that the government needs to get their fingers in the pie and charge tax on grocery items.  If they didn’t tax items that we HAVE to have, then I think it would be a little easier on people trying to feed their families.

Does it every shock you when you go to pay for your order to see how much you are being charged?

I am so embarrassed to say this, but my sneakers have holes. I never ever buy myself anything new and that goes for shoes as well. I honestly can’t tell you how old my sneakers are, but their pretty old and now my husband is threatening that he will buy me a new pair if I don’t. Well I love him to death but I don’t want him to purchase my footwear so I have decided it’s time to take the plunge and buy a new pair of sneakers. One type of shoe that I really like the looks of is Air Jordan shoes. I love the style and color of them. Now hopefully I can find a pair in my size and then I will be able to let you all know that I broke down and bought a pair of shoes for myself.

As far as the ones with holes, I’ll still keep them and maybe use them for gardening or swimming. They still have some life left in them and maybe if I continue to use them I won’t feel so guilty for buying something for myself.

Well I have a big expense that’s going to need to come out of my pocket soon. I am going to need to purchase a brand new TV. Mine just up and died last night. So today I have started doing a little research on the Internet to see where is the best place to find and purchase this item. I have found a site over at buy.com where I think I may make this purchase. They have loads of inventory on hand that not only includeds TV’s, but you can also purchase a viewsonic monitor, camera’s and any digital product you need. Their prices seem to be extremely reasonable and their shipping practices look extremely attractive. So, I’m off to check out their site a little more thouroughly and hopefully soon I will have a TV that is not dead.

Well folks, it’s been two months now since I left my place of employment so I thought that I would give you all an update.  Working steadily for the past seven and a half years, you would think that I would miss the job and the routine of going to work everyday, but honestly I don’t.  Someone told me that when I left, that I would miss it after a couple of weeks at home but this has not happened.  I have enjoyed my time off so much that I often wonder why I hadn’t done this a couple of years ago.  I am happier, the kids are happier and my husband is happier.  Yes I do miss the money and the paycheck but that is about the only thing I miss.  I’m enjoying being home so much, that I don’t think when September rolls around that I will be looking for another job.

Just the latest update on my life and everything is wonderful!
