A Change In Daily Life

Starting this Wednesday, I will start my babysitting adventures alllll over again. It is funny that I will be watching a little girl that use to be my next door neighbor, and we ended up moving to the same town. Anywho, I was tracked down and will be watching her again. I am a bit scared.... and the only reasons I can think of for being scared is :
1. My daily routine will be changed
2. I wont have my rare moments of quiet during the afternoon as much
3. She is 2 years older now and I don't know what to expect!

Other than those reasons, I am kind of excited. I like life being shaken up every once and a while! The extra $$ wont be too bad either, as the in-laws are still in Texas and not sending enough for their utilities or rent. (whole other story)

But once again, an opportunity has presented itself to save more money insuring our safety net and helping us sleep at night.

So my brood grows to 4 kidos Monday through Friday 9-5!! What a way to make a livin.

PS- The dishwasher was prominent in plates and silverware this afternoon.... no cups or bowls. WEIRD!

Good Day!


Well, it turned out to be a better day then I expected. Started out a bit rough, as with switching our banks around and paying on our Chase credit card last month, things got confused and mixed up, ending in extra fees and a lot of headaches, so I was very worried and frustrated. An hour after freaking out, the mail came with a nice surprise ! A check from the hospital back paying me for what our insurance picked up and what the state picked up, and what we had already paid towards the birth! I was THRILLED! The amount was almost exact to what Chase had charged us. A load off my mind and I was able to relax again. So in celebration, and a little extra cash from my wonderful grandma, who told me to go buy something fun for myself (she listened to me stress out for about an hour) so I got the new Viva Pinata (on sale too!) and I am buying the first book of the Twilight Series for when I go into labor! So, all in all it was a great day, and a lesson learned to trust, and remember that God never does give us more than we can handle and is always keeping a watchful eye on those in need and those take care of themselves. :-D HAPPY DAY!

P.S.- Rex is feeling MUCH better, and I babied him like he needed with a smile and love, and felt a lot less grouchy when doing so!
