I have to say that after the long week I had with the kids last week, I really wasn’t looking forward to another week of having them home and fighting. They have only been out of school for a little over a month, but I really think they need to go back. I think they are both getting a little bored and that is why they are at one another constantly lately. Thankfully today was one of their better days. I didn’t have to yell at them a lot over their fighting and they actually got to play a lot outside today. So I’m keeping my fingers crossed that last week was just a bad week for them and this behavior that I seen today will continue for the rest of the summer. But only time will tell.

My father in law is getting married in a couple of months. This means that I have quite a bit of things I need to do. First of all I will need to get a hair cut and dye. Also I need to purchase me and the kids some wedding clothes. And I also need to find some good acne cures to clear up my face before the big day and all the pictures. My husband is going to be the best man at this wedding so he is also going to need to get some new clothes as well. Although it’s my father in law getting married, I can see this day costing us quite a bit of money. I don’t think I spent this much money on my own wedding.

Today is my husband’s and I’s anniversary. We have been married for 7 long…years today. We have actually been together for over 14 years, but it took me a little while to say yes when he asked me to marry him. After seven years of marriage I can honestly say that I’m glad I did say yes! So in a little while my husband is going to take me out to a restaurant of my choice for supper. And yes, we are taking the kids. Some of you may not think that this is a very romantic thing to do. But since we have been together for so long, taking the kids with us isn’t a real big deal.
So…I guess I’ll see you all later. Now all I have to do is decide where I want my husband to take me.

Although I went to my insurance company for a meeting regarding my current life insurance policy, I am still unsure as to whether or not I will end up getting this service from them. Their life insurance quotes seem pretty high so I’m thinking about calling around and getting more quotes from different companies. Although I would love to stay with my current company, if I can find a cheaper deal somewhere else for the same coverage then I’m going to have to take it. Who knows though maybe their prices are right on and I’m just not seeing the whole picture. Time will tell I guess.

Well I have a major job ahead of me today. I need to sort through all my crafting supplies to find some beads and wires. Last month I purchased some supplies to start making some religious jewelry to sell on my crafting site and for the life of me, I have no clue where I put them. So because I have so many supplies, it’s going to take me all day to go through them to try to find the supplies that I want to work with.
This always happens to me. I get it in my head to start a project. Then I can’t find the supplies I need to get started on the project. By the time I find the materials I usually have changed my mind about what I want to do. Not this time though. I’m going to find those supplies if it takes me all day.

Although it’s been raining, cloudy and little cold these past few days, I couldn’t be happier. The excessive heat that we were experiencing seems to be gone right now and the temperatures are quite nice. It’s not too hot outside and I have actually been able to get quite a bit accomplished outside and in because I can breath a lot easier. The weatherman is predicting a hot and humid weekend, but since we will be camping, I don’t mind that it will be hot. During the week I love it when it’s not so nice outside and on the weekend I love it when the sun shines.

It’s been quite a while since I last posted about Project Wonderful. So I thought I would give you an update. Last week I hit the $10.00 payout again. So I requested payout and within the day I was paid and it was in my paypal account. So this was the second payment I have received from them for $10.00. I know $10.00 doesn’t sound like much, but…after you place the code you then can forget about it. You don’t have to do anything extra. So it’s really passive income. Plus every $10.00 I receive from them pays for one year of hosting for one of my sites.
So…I guess what I’m trying to say is that I am quite happy with the program and will continue on with it.

Since we have decided to put our house hunting on the back burner for a little while we have decided to put an extension on our current home. It won’t be overly big, just enough room for a play room for the kids. It’s not like we will be able to fit any home theater seating in it. But with the extension we will be able to buy the kids an air hockey table which they have wanted for a very long time. We never had the room for any type of toy like this. So now all we have to do is purchase the wood and get building.

Just this past Christmas my youngest kids got a play station 3 from “Santa”. Although it was given to both kids, my youngest son gets the most enjoyment out of it. He is constantly playing it and when he is asked what he would like for a present he always says “a play station 3 game”.
Well it’s broke! It’s only 7 months old and right now it’s unusable. As far as we can tell, he put a magnet to close to the system and erased the hard drive. And do you think that we can find anyone around our area who works on them?? Nope. Nobody in this area will touch it because it has a hard drive. My husband did find a guy who is selling a used hard drive out of his system. So he’s going to purchase it and hopefully fix it. If this doesn’t work I don’t know what were going to do as this is a very expensive system.
If there is any gamers out there who have experienced something similar maybe you could give me your input?
