Okay, right now I am still visiting my parents. So, I occasionally have to go places with my mom (complicated situation, don’t ask) and she’s not very good at getting back in time for meals. When this happens we usually end up stopping at a fast food restaurant. Now, I have decided that this goal will start once I get back to Michigan. Once I am back home I will quiit fast food (although I may occasionally go to a nice sit down restaurant).
Okay, I know that it will cost me almost $7,000 for the tubal reversal surgery. My husband and I have decided to wait until I finish college to have the surgery. So, I have roughly 3 years to save up the money. I also want to have plently of money saved up so that the baby expenses won’t be so overwhelming. I figure that if I save up $100 a week every week for three years I should have $15,000. That gives me plenty to have the surgery and buy baby stuff!
I have over 200 vegetarian recipes printed out and organized in my recipe binder! Plus, I have 150 more recipes that I don’t have the ink to print out yet! Plus, I made a copy for my vegetarian sister (sort of an early wedding present)! Now I can’t wait to get back home and start trying them out!
I quit my job. They were laying off people anyways, and I was only planning to work there temporarily in the first place.
My husband is a truck driver. Since he’s gone so often I want to have a whole bunch of recipes that I can make for him when he’s home. We are going to be eating vegetarian soon, so I want to restrict that binder to vegetarian recipes only. If anyone has some good recipes post them, please!
On May 12, 2008 my husband and I are going to have a wedding ceremony to renew our vows. When we got married we went to thecourthouse and our witnesses were a military buddy of his and the judge’s secretary. So, for our five year anniversary we are going to have a small ceremony and go on a honeymoon! We have decided to save the money to go on a month long trip. We plan to spend one week in New York City one week in Boston, and two weeks going camping and four-wheeling in Maine! It will be so much fun!
OK, this goal is actually broken down into three smaller goals.
1) Save $10,000 so we can move back to Michigan.
2) Save $10,000 so we can buy a house.
3) Save $7,000 so I can have the surgery I want.
I am going to concentrate on the first part right now, and hopefully I can complete that one by the end of February. Then I will probably focus on the last two simultaneously, ut place the empahsis on the house. Hopefully, I can finish both those goals by the time I graduate from college.
I have Mommy brain! I have had Mommy brain ever since I had my oldest one almost five years ago! I cannot seem to remember anything. I have tried writing things down on a to do list, but I can never seem to remember to look at the list! If anyone has any suggestions feel free to speak up!
Well, this goal is being placed on hold temporarily. I am going to have to be out on the road with my husband for a while (see sassyteffie’s blog at vox.com) and that pretty much eliminates everything but fast food!
I have made it through one entire day without drinking a single soda pop (as opposed to my usual 5 or more a day)!
I swore for years that I would never learn to drive a stick shift. Four years ago my husband taught me. Now I hate automatics!
Ok, that’s it, I’m done. As of right now I officially quit fast food. I may, occasionally go to a real restaurant for a special treat, but not a fast food joint, and no more than once a month. Stay at home meals and packed lunches for me!
ok, no more soda pop, period! I am tired of drnking tons of empty calories and filling my body with crap.
Well, I really, really want a fourth baby, but my husband says not right now. I know that he’s right, and we should wait a few years until I’m done with college, but I really want another one right now. Maybe it’s because my other three are growing up so fast.
My boss has put in the paperwork for my promotion. Now I just have to jump through all the hoops correctly!
