Well I am happy to announce tonight that I am finally caught up on pretty much everything I needed to do, and I have only been caught up for about an hour now but I already feel so relieved! I finished cleaning the whole house (except my bathroom, tackling that tonight), I the past 2 weeks worth of coupons clipped and put away in my coupon binder, I finally made it to Walmart for the rest of my All You magazines, and I cleaned off my desk so now I can actually blog!!
I can't believe it's only been 2 weeks since baby came home, it seems like he has been here for so much longer... I just hope time doesn't fly by with this one like it did with my oldest son, he is already almost 6 years old and it seems like just yesterday he was a little baby like my new baby. It makes me sad to see them growing up so fast.
I am, however, happy that he is back in school, I am already loving it! He hates going shopping or leaving the house in general and whines and whines and whines when I used to make he go to Walmart or CVS with me, so atleast now baby and I can shop till we drop!
I am way off budget this month since I spent a lot more than I was planning to, baby needed unexpected stuff and I had to switch to driving the Durango instead of my car and gas in that thing is crazy! I have also spent a lot on school shoes, underwear, socks, etc, etc. The biggest budget buster (well not really, we had it in savings) was my DH upgrading his little 250cc motorcycle to a 14 year newer 750cc, 2003 Honda Shadow which costed us 5000$. He is a great guy and he works hard and gives me all but 40$ of his paychecks every week so I never say anything when he wants to buy something. Besides, it will pay for itself in no time, he only uses about 10$ in gas per week versus the 70$ he was spending in the Durango.
So anyways, it feels good to just sit and blog for a while, and I can't wait for my Super Savings Sunday post this Sunday because I have been taking pictures of all of my deals for the past few weeks, I just haven't been posting them, so I will have lots of pics to share! I have to get back to work at my normal computer job too, I didn't work at all this month so my income is down very low for August, gonna get back into the swing of things and start making some $$ again!
I will be posting a lot more now but it will start off slowly, I am caught up but I am still exhausted and sometimes the last thing I want to do is sit at the computer =) Can't blame me though, holding a baby at the computer totally kills my back.
