Word-full Wed

Good Morning all!

THE FIRST PART OF THIS POST HAS BEEN REPOSTED ABOVE. THIS IS SO YOU WOULD NOT HAVE TO READ IT TWICE. HOPE IT DOES NOT CONFUSE TOO MANY?

What else, hummmm.....well I have been held up by toddlers. Yes those lovely 21 month old twins I watch daily. Seems that they have decided that naps are passe' so we are just not doing them. Of course no one alerted me of this trend. So for two days I have had to stay with them on the large front porch we have or in the "gated community" of the living room. Why? Because they know how to blitz a room in 30 seconds. So now I am doing my household chores at 4 am so I can be held hostage all day long. Oh well, it helps pay the bills!.

Oh bills, yes that one. Was paid for 3 months of child care this last weekend. I had to work up my budget for the next 5 months (won't be paid again til Feb 09). Spent time doing it. Have it down how to pay all the bills for next 5 months but very low on food budget as usual. Now you see why we are so inventive. But it feels good to say all of October bills are paid and some of November's are too already! So will bask in that glory and not worry past that.

How do you budget?

  1. Good grief! We were both up early! I got up and showered at 3:45. Now I have a splitting headache. Maybe I need coffee? I am blog surfing until time to wake Dan. Have a great day!

  2. My former way of budgeting: I set an amount to spend grocery shopping. If I pass that amount, then I just don't worry about it. I know, pathetic :-)

  3. That is honestly one of the saddest things I've ever watched! At least you'd warned me, but I still bawled like we lost a family member!

Yippee! You came to talk to me. Thanks.
You know how special that makes me feel?
Like I swallowed the moon and the stars and I just shine now!
