Save me from Sinus Colds...

I hate being sick. I mean this one didn’t seem to last that long.  The cold symptoms didn’t last much beyond Wednesday so I stopped taking the Tylenol Sinus pills.  So now I’m dealing with nausea, cold sweats, and dizziness off and on through out the day since then.  I have been kinda useful besides that.  Thursday night I got the lawn cut for the first time in a month and a half.  90% of the lawn had been burned off and dead so I wasn’t going to drag out the machine to do the little parts that lived in the shade!  Besides we were having a heat wave!  No yard work when death threatens thank you!  Anyway, weeded the driveway, ripped out the front garden and got it ready for winter, cleaned out my shed, got the bikes hung up from the ceiling, re-created our entire filing system and got Microsoft Money to balance with our current bills and budget.  THANK YOU I ROCK!  

The Boy starts school on Tuesday.  I have to put my baby on a big yellow bus to take him away.  I am not happy.  Mother stuff, anxiety stuff, and I’m sure some other stuff so it all builds up to me not feeling happy about this.

Marshy got a new job.  It’s only a term for a year but it’s been her and me for so long now I’m sad, yet happy for her, yet very sad for me.  Going to lose my co-pilot.  

J and I are hitting the brokest stage of our lives yet.  Wednesday is the quarterly tax payment of $4421, the 21st is the GST payment of about $700, and the 29th is the last property tax payment of the year at $702.  We are going to make it but thank you for the line of credit! We are eating a lot of potato’s and rice right now let me tell you!  The big challenge has been cutting back on the groceries.  Since we started tracking everything in Microsoft Money in June I can see that we have spent anywhere from $480-$636 on groceries per month!  We are trying to keep the lid on it to $200 for September.  We are about a third of the way in and we are at $80.  YAY FOR PRICE CHOPPER!!!!  

Hmmmm…this one has been a little bit not happy.  Something happy, something happy….



With The Boy being at school or home with Jay means no more daycare bills and I’m now free to re-join the gym at work ‘cause I don’t have to leave work on the button at 4pm to go pick him up!  

OH!!!  I’m going to the Black Eyed Peas concert on Wednesday!  4th row left!!!!  Should be AWESOME!!!  

Blog ya later!
