I gotta get back on track

Posted by lemondropz998 on May 17th, 2009 |Filed Under Uncategorized |

Welp, I’m back from vacation and it was really fun. I havent written on here in a while because i feel that i cant check in on everyone like i used to. Its more lonely just blogging. I dont like it at all. I still havent gotten my past journals emailed to me yet. Sigh….

This week has been really stressful. We have a total of $2 in the bank. I almost thought that we wouldnt make the bills this month. We cashed in our savings bonds. It was really close. Hubby has a job interview on Wednesday. I really really hope he gets it. Everyone please send positive thoughts our way.

I’m starting to get my body baby ready. I realized i really deperatly need to lose 55 pounds before i get preggers. I’ve started taking folic Acid (because i read you were suppose to) I know I need to eat less and move more. I just can’t seem to get motivated enough to do it.

Work now has me down to 17 hours a week. I applied to a night job back at stop and shop (the first job i ever had) which means hubby and i are averaging $1060 a month before taxes. Rent is $650 Credit Card debt is about 400 a month (min payments) that leaves 10 for grocerys and everything else.

My best friend is also in major bill trouble. She doesnt have electricity so yesterday i had her come over and let her and her children take showers and do laundry. (our electricity is included in our rent) The economy is really hurting everyone. It sucks soooo bad

Ok well today im doing some laundry and trying to pick up my room.

I am also going to work on my next painting. Im thinking about becoming a kindergarden art teacher. It def sounds like something i could do. :0) Although with the money problems the move is in jepordy and so is my going back to college for my ECE associates. (early childhood education)

    Times are certainly tough. That’s nice of you to help your friend.

    I agree, it is still so difficult to check in on everybody in this format. Miss you though!

    I am so sad for your friend and her children! Has she checked with her county to see what kind of emergency help they can give her? There has to be something. It was nice of you to have them come over … gosh, she isn’t even my friend and I am worried! lol

    The blogs are definitely different, but once you get into the routine they are okay. Just time consuming!

    When you get a chance, check in and let us know how your hubby’s interview went!
