New Year's Resolution!!

For my new year's resolution I am going to keep track of all the $$ I spend and all the $$ I save and keep this blog up to date with all of the information. Also I will be starting my plans for Christmas... in January. I always find tons of things I want to make for my loved ones instead of buying things but don't seem to have enough time to make them (you know in the crazy three weeks before Christmas.) Furthermore I will start homeschooling H 5 days a week (maybe 7 if she wants that) and I will keep to my cleaning schedule that I have made. So quick recap
1) Track Spending and Saving on Blog
2) Christmas crafts start in Jan threw Dec.
3) Homeschooling H 5 days a week
4) Stick to cleaning Schedule

My Husband Rocks Friday!!


My husband had a Snow Day from work, I know unheard of right? His boss called him at 7 a.m. this morning and told him no one was going to the office today he didn't want anyone getting hurt on the roads and to stay home and play with his kids!!! I don't know the man personally but I have love for him for caring for my husband. Also I am so happy that my husband is such a good provider for our family. Turned out for the best that he was home today since I was sick!! My doctor started me on a new anti-depressent and it made me super dizzy, so dizzy I was motion sick. Man was I ever happy to have my husband home to help with the kids and take care of me, all with very little complaining lol. But at least the complaining was him teasing me.

USA MADE TOYS!!!!

Now I know most of us are really starting to think about where our things, and especially our kid's things come from. Both for safety reasons and also to support American jobs. Well I found a great site for some toys.

Hope this helps someone.

This is a post I've been wanting to do for a while I got it from I'm not super mom's blog, so starting today I am going to do this every friday I can.
My husband rocks, because he is my husband. He loves me for me and accepts me for who I am even though I drive him crazy sometimes. He works very hard to take care of and support our family and I really appreciate that he works so hard so I can stay home with our children. He is a true gem and I am ever so blessed to have him.

Thank GOD!!!!

I got a phone call from my mother in law today asking if I had spoken to my DH (I thought she was talking about an outing she had asked us to go on with her tomorrow) I said yes we decided we are not gong to go. She said "Jenn (very firm tone) NO, listen to me. He has been in a car accident, he was hit by another driver" At this point my heart hit's the floor and my stomach ties into knots. She had to let me go after that to talk to someone else but she just wanted to let me know. Now I have to wait for a phone call to find out what is happening with my husband finally I can't wait any longer and I call him (what seems like forever was only 20mins) THANK GOD, he is ok his work truck is not but that is just a thing that can be replaced. He is sore and has tomorrow off work, and of coarse he says he is fine so he won't go to the e.r. but says he will go to the doctors tomorrow.
