Life is Crazy!

I didn't realize how long it's been since I've posted. Life has been kind of crazy around our neck of the woods. I feel like I never slow down, until it's 10:30 or later, then I crash!

Marcus is loving school. If you know him, that's weird to hear I'm sure. He doesn't mind the drive to and from Vegas. He put the Lord of the Ring book series on his iPod, and that keeps him entertained. He is also working one or 2 days a week at the golf course. He doesn't make the schedule anymore. I really cannot wait until the day we can say good riddens to that place.

In an effort to make that happen, I am going to teach grocery smarts classes. It is basically the right way to use a coupon, and YES there is a right way and a wrong way. Whether you're interested in grocery smarts or not, I can probably get you the best rate on newspapers all over Utah and Nevada. Just let me know :) I have been consuming my free time with getting everything ready to teach my first class, which is Thursday. It's a lot more work than I expected. Hopefully it has the results Marcus and I are looking for.

Work at the Credit Union has it's good moments, but I am seriously counting down the weeks until Marcus graduates! I am so over sitting here and accomplishing basically nothing all day. Today I did get a loan approved, and got this post written, so it wasn't a TOTAL waste :) You all probably think I'm exaggerating, but I'm not. Everything in there is the truth. Sometimes I worry about my job and how long it's going to be around. I hope for at least 92 more weeks!

I started a financial counseling course to become a... financial counselor. I have a hard time finding time to read it. The time I do have is consumed with laying there with my eyes shut. I have a sinus infection that's killing me. I get a headache pretty much everyday, and they don't go away, even with medicine. I just finished a round of antibiotics, so it looks like I'm headed back to the doctor to get something else.

We haven't even gotten to visit our cute little niece, Zoi, because I've had this stupid thing for so long. She has a trach, so I'm afraid of getting her sick even if I feel a tiny bit ill. Hopefully these dang headaches will go away so I can do something better than complain.

So, we still have this computer desk that's free for the taking. It's just sitting in our living room waiting for it's new owner to pick it up. If that new owner is you, let me know. It's free, so please take it!

We also got another Nephew last Tuesday. Sorry, I don't have a camera, or I would post some pictures. Logan and Heather had their baby. He is SO tiny, and so precious! I love babies, and can't wait until we have some of our own. They named him Raiden Scott. He was 5 lb 9 oz. He has jaundice, but other than that, him and his Mommy are doing great!

We got me a bike, and enjoy riding together. I am so out of shape, I probably embarrass Marcus. I had to walk up a hill he took me up on Friday. It was ridiculous. I enjoy "feeling the burn". It makes me feel like I accomplished something in my day. It also gives me and Marcus alone time, which is rare these days.

Which reminds me... Robby FINALLY decided what he is going to do. He is moving back to Virginia to work for a year or less, then off to school wherever he chooses.

I fell asleep last night just laying there wishing my headache away, and woke up at 1:30 to something wet at my feet. My STUPID dog peed on the freaking bed! At first I thought it was just a little leak or something, but it went through our blanket, which is thick, and our two sheets. I am SO mad at her. She is officially banned to the crate at night. I AM NOT waking up in the middle of the night to change my bedding. Garh!

So, off I go back to work... oh, let's be honest... off I go to sit here. The good thing is, it's 4:07, which means only 53 minutes left of this day, and then it'll be 91 weeks and 4 days :)

HOLY SNOT! I JUST SCROLLED THROUGH THIS POST, WHICH MEANS IT IS TERRIBLY LONG. SO SORRY!!

Free for the Taking


We got a new freezer! YAY! I'm SO excited. Now I can coupon and not worry about having room for everything I bring home. Well, that required us to move our computer, and my old computer desk I didn't want in the living room, so I got a new computer desk, and need to give my old one away. If you want it, let me know. If you can haul it off, it's yours!
Oh, and if you were trying to look at my coupon blog, I'm sorry, I changed the web address and forgot to change it in the post. It's there now, so you can go take a look.
