feeling: blah.
doing: trying to work if my PShop would stay open!
listening to: 'The Get Up Kids' Pandora radio!
things have been good!
this week has been really long and i have NO desire to be here today. but its friday so that makes it better!
last month was crazy and this month isn't looking like it'll slow down at all. bummer. but its okay to be busy... i just have to get myself caught up and motivated!
first off--money-- we got into that debt program and its finally kicking in! we aren't getting constant calls from companies, none at all actually! and we've gotten all of our card statements that show lower interest rates and things getting paid! it makes me so happy!! if we keep this going we'll be out of credit card debt in 4 years or less!! *happy dance* its like a huge weight! of course, we're still living paycheck to paycheck.. but our bills aren't late anymore and we're not paying $100 to each of our 5 cards! always a good thing! i would deffinetly suggest this to anyone who is even starting to struggle! of course there is an amount that you have to be in debt, but if you are there then DO IT! its the best and easiest way to get out of credit card debt!
love -- aahh love! L-O-V-E love. hehe. yes, Matt and i are doing okay! finally and again! everyone has their bumps, but for the most part we are happy with and around each other! we don't fight (unless its about money ) and we actually like each other again! sadly, this took a long time for us to get back to, but we're there and its so much better!!
Ethan -- my baby boy will be TWO this month! ARG! where did the time go!? he's growing up too fast for me!! he's so smart and remembers anything you tell him! we've had to start spelling words around him because if you tell him your going to Gma&Gpas house later.... he thinks its now and he HAS to go! he loves trucks! trucks, tractors, buses, anything that moves. he's 150% boy! but he's also a mama's boy, which i LOVE! it makes my heart melt when he smiles and says "Hi Mommy!" we've also gotten him to do the "thank you" and "please" all the time! you still have to remind him sometimes but he's started to say "thank you" for almost everything! "thank you mommy!" i love it!!
my little family is perfect in almost every way. yeah, look for us on a Hallmark card! haha! of course i'm back to my baby fever. pretty much everyone that has a baby Ethan's age or right around there has either had another baby or is preggo! why not me?! because our house is too small, we don't have enough money, and we're not quite ready! but a tiny part of me want to have that accident that makes it happen! someday we'll be there and we can plan for it. not just yet.
okay, i'm going to try my PShop again.... hopefully it'll stay open this time!
yeay for work!
oh.. i'm having Subway for lunch.. it sounds freaking amazing!!
have a good weekend everyone!

I'm so glad to hear that things are on the right track for you guys... I had no idea that things weren't ideal. But no one on the outside ever really knows when we come along those bumps that happen now and again...
What was the debt program you started? I wonder if we could try it out - we've definitely got more than we'd like, that's for sure! It's so hard to get out from under that junk!
I hear ya about the baby itch. Christopher will be 3 in November, and it doesn't look like we'll be having another one. Toran has many reasons, like Matt... some are valid, but most are not. Either way, we aren't financially there (no one ever is though!!!), nor do either of us really want to go back to the whole baby thing (meaning the night time feedings, diapers, etc.) I'd love everything else though and a part of me cries every time I think about what we're missing out on...
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed your Subway lunch and that you made it through another Friday at work - - - bring on the weekend!!!
thanks Shelene!
btw-the link you sent me wont let me get into your site! can you invite me again? i dont know what the deal is!
we are in the Consumer Credit of DM program (http://www.consumercredit-dm.com/) its been really great! they call and set up a schedule, we make 2 payments a month and then the first of every month they pay our credit cards! its pretty slick! and they got our interest rates down to 4% and 7%! a LOT nicer than the 21%'s that we were paying! our lady told us if we stayed on track we'd have everything paid off in about 4 years!
my baby itch is pretty bad! but there are all those reasons that keep us in line... but then again i never minded the late nights and bottles and things! so i'd be okay with that again! matt said he wanted to wait until ethan's 10 to have another one.... not happeing!! haha!
hope your weekend was good! i'm ready for another one!!
