Current Conditions

What a week it has been. Back to work for me and back to school for Peanut. His ears seem to be much better. Needless to say, a long week and weekend is here! Slack is going to be gone for the weekend camping with friends. I will miss him but glad he is going so he can chill with friends and honestly, he needs to. He is driving me crazy. He is not doing anything out of the ordinary, he is just being him . I know he will be glad to get a break from me too and work, family responsibilities, etc.

We have had our house on the market for 6 months. Not even ONE LOUSY OFFER. I am disappointed that we have not sold our home. It will be off the market tomorrow. We could have used the equity to pay bills since I am not in love with this house. Note to self: Do not decide to buy a house on the day the fertility treatments did not work AGAIN. Thank goodness, however, we are not having to sell our home because foreclosure and/or bankruptcy is looming. Our budget is overextended but we have come to grips with that and are trimming the fat: cable, groceries, eating out, etc. On a happy side note I am so glad to not have any more nasty strangers clomping through the house leaving the toilet seat up. I swear!

Shopping garage sales and thrift stores are on the list this weekend in the hopes of finding decent deals for clothes and whatnot. I do love finding a great bargain. It is interesting to see how our family budget is following the U.S. market trends. Blecccch!

It is already getting stupidly hot (in the 80’s) and it is not even March. I love it here, really I do, I swear.
