Just back in town after an exhausting week of out of town work. Ready for the weekend! I'm looking forward to a weekend at home with my boy finishing the christmas decor and taking it easy. We are looking into buying some real estate to invest in and plan to make that decision this weekend also. We will see I just know we need to consolidate our life and focus on what is important. So we need to simplify some items. Not so sure I would want to live that close to my mother and stepdad, but the help would be nice!

Potty Time!

Ahhhh! The adventures of potty training. My son has been doing really well with peeing in the potty (until this morning) After he is all dressed and ready, he is laying on his tummy on MY bed watching cartoons, and just pees right there in the middle of the bed! I thought my husband was going to loose it! The comforter has to be drycleaned the sheets jerked off the bed and thrown in the wash! Change him again, all this will make me at least a half hour late getting to work. Now we also have to worry about the cat coming to pee on top of that! She had an issue with that before, but we had broke her, it has been 8 months since her last offense. To make matters worse I am leaving town today for work and no one will work with him as much as me. The hard balance of a working mother! Just make it through the week! Just make it through the week! Just make it through the week! Just make it through the week! I hope they can make it with out me, I will be back on Thursday, will the house still be standing?!?!?!?!?!

Holiday Chaos

Wow! How much it takes just to get this family out of town! It is offical we have WAY too many animals! Since we are all planning to go out of town including the boyfriend and girlfriend, we are left with no one to take care of the critters. I had no idea what drama it would bring to get this task acomplished. I think we have found someone, but she doesn't like to drive being she has no license and she doesn't wan to clean the cat box, although she has 3 cats of her own. So we have decided to cut the trip short and come home Friday night. That's fine by me because going there is just a little too crazy with all of the people and a VERY small house. I know now is the time I am supposed to be thankful for all that I have (and believe me I am) but the PMS has taken over and at this moment I am just trying to keep it together without going postal! It can only get better from here, .....Right??? Wishing Everyone a Safe and Happy Thanksgiiving!

Going Green

Well after 3 days, we have made the first step and effort in going green! Baby steps....baby steps, we have officially changed the lightbulbs in the house to flourescent. The color is going to take some getting used to. I am a fan of the warmer light, but am willing to sacrifice for our planet. I also went around and unplugged all items not used everyday, whaahooo that's 2 steps then. What will be next?? I was thinking paper towels, but I don't know if that will ever happen.....my husband carries one around like a security blanket. I will have to do some research to see what we might be able to adjust to. I am trying to make this transition an easy one for the entire family.

To Do List
Well the weekend was pretty un-eventful. Friday we just had family time on the sofa with popcorn. Saturday morning came way too early, I left the house a 6:30am BLAH! After work, went home to start on my "To Do" list. On this list is to find a reciept from where I paid to apply for the NCIDQ test. I spent 2 hours going through trying to find it. I have always been an organized person, but I have found that the paper trail is becoming overwhelming. I think for Christmas I will be asking for the Neat Receipts program. Anyways, after not coming up with the reciept from Dec 06 mind you, I have come to the realization that I will have to re-apply. Which makes no since because they know I have already taken the test and passed, but they cannot find my application which they had to approve before I could take the test anyway! Moving on Sat evening friends came over for a night of catch up we went to dinner then sat around the fire and drinking way too much wine. Sunday the wine has sat in and I was not 100%, but I was determined to get that "To Do" list accomplished! And I did, but went to bed about 8pm last night. My son woke me up at 4am coughing so we watched a movie and spent some mommy & me time together this morning. I am so ready for a long weekend even if it has to be an out of town weekend it is very much needed!

Here we go!
Well here I go off into the world of blog........(the updated version of a diary, that everyone in the world can read!)
At least it's Friday, I haven't done much work today....it's just too damn pretty outside. Well after the cruise I have reflected on my life and decided to make some changes for the better. I want to live richer in mind, body, and soul. I want to use the power of positivity to bring wealth into my life. What better way to be accountable than to start blogging! I think for me it is a step in the right direction!
So I have ordered 3 books this week.....
