On the insurance hunt again

5:01 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
So my hubby works a very stressful job for the state. They have effectively given him a 3% pay cut and are probably going to but their pay even more in the very near future. We have all of our insurance through his work. We are starting to look at other places such as Wholesaleinsurance.net to see if they have comparable plans or at least affordable and acceptable plans. I hate the stress of not knowing if my husband will have a job in the near future or not, but I guess there are a lot of us out there now:/

Google Android Tablet

Well, now that I have a couple of good nonphone home work eggs, I am starting to look at some small tablet computers that I can use to do them. I am trying to find something that is good for a bout $100. What I have found so far are some seven inch tablets that have android on them. I think that is a pretty good deal to be able to be outside with the kids while they swim and I can watch them and still make a few bucks:)

A friend of mine is really artistic:)

A friend of mine from nursing school is so artistic! She has a step daughter and she made the most awesome scrapbook for her graduation from High School. I can't wait till I actually have a little bit of time to sit down and do some artsy stuff like that too. I really enjoy things like that, and would love to have some nifty books for my sons pictures and memories. I think they are just as appropriate for boys as girls, although, I am sure women probably enjoy making them more than guys.

It is HAWT here in FL!

Well, as you probably already know, we do not have an air conditioner. This is the third year in a row we have not had one and well it pretty much sucks. We do have a very low electric bill because of it though:) Tomorrow I am going to start getting our little above ground pool ready (i.e. cleaned out). It has been unbearable the last week or so with the weather breaking records.
I can't wait to get the pool going again. Yeah!

I look like a racoon

My allergies are really kicking this year. I hate how it makes me look too. I can't wear makeup because I keep rubbing my eyes, but I need to wear it to cover up the dark circles. I really wish that I knew how to remove dark circles under eyes. I am starting to search on it. When I was in class 5 days a week, I didn't have the time to even go to the bathroom when I needed to, so now I actually can take some time to look up things that I need to find out. I can't wait till I get rid of the circles though, I will probably look 10 years younger.

My son is so sweet

My oldest son is 7. In the mornings when I drop him off at school, he usually goes and does this thing where they run laps for points and then at the end of school, they get prizes. Well, today he got a brand new very nice bike helmet. He asked if he could get one for his brother that is in Pre-K. They told him if he ran an extra lap, that he could have one for him. So, he ran an extra lap to get his brother a new bike helmet. I just thought that was sweet of him:)

Hubby

So hubby is starting to think about a job change. His job is very dangerous and stressful and they are starting to cut back on some of the benefits which is the whole reason that he has the job in the first place. He has asked me what I think he should do for advertizement and I told him that printing postcards would probably be a good idea as well as having a great website presence as well. I can't wait until he makes the chance and he no longer works in the evenings.

My baby is almost 3!

So tomorrow my "Baby" turns 3. It is bitter sweet. I am glad that he has become the big boy that he has, but I am sad that he will not be a little baby anymore. He will also be my last.
When we had 2 little boys, it seemed as though something was still missing. It was, it was my little Sethipoo. Now our home seems VERY full:)
We have decided to wait until next weekend to celebrate his birthday, we will actually have a little bit of money then and my BFF will not be 2 days out of an abdominal surgery and will hopefully be able to make it.
I hope to be able to post some cute pics after the celebration.

Aging

4:40 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
So, during my nursing class, I pretty much didn't worry about how I looked or anything. It was all I could do to get out of bed and go to class, do clinical and take the tests. Now that I am done, I have the time to look in the mirror and realize that I really do need some really good anti aging products that work. I think from all of the squinting I did to read drugs and such, my crows feet have gotten pretty bad. I want to make sure that I do not look old before my time.

Excited!

Now that I have some extra time, I can start going to the sales at CVS and Walgreens again! I have so missed going. We have no stockpiles of anything and I am really feeling the need to go and do this. I feel like I am having withdraws from it. Is that even possible?

Sort of miss my classmates

4:00 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
You know, it is now Sunday and I last saw my classmates on Thursday. I already miss them:( It is hard when you have been seeing people everyday for a year more than you have seen your own family. I hope that we all stay in contact thanks to Facebook. But, I also know that we are all going to get really busy again once everyone takes their NCLEX and passes it to get a job. Although this has been one of the most grueling times in my life and I would not want to go through it again, I do see myself missing it.

Personal loans

3:55 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
I wish I had known about the concept of personal loans while I was still in school. We were down to our last dollar MANY times. There were times that we had to figure out how we were going to eat and my hubby was going to get to work and me be able to get to school as well. Thank goodness the kids breakfasts and lunches were already taken care of, but boy, it sure can feel traumatic when it feels like you have so many things to pay and don't have anything to use to pay them.

Boys being boys...`

So my 3 little boys are outside right now. I love it when they play nice and run around and get dirty. They really have a lot of energy, and letting them go outside like this really lets them use it up so that there is not as much fighting in the house or tearing the house up as much. What has me worried right now though, is that the baby keeps coming in the house and filling a bucket up with water and going back out. Am I going to go outside to a mote?

Trying to talk him into it

1:06 PM Edit This 0 Comments »
When I met my husband, he had been taking some classes at the local community college for a degree with computers. When we met and got married he has stopped taking classes and was working to pay the bills basically. Now that I will be able to make more that what he does, i am going to try to talk him into going back to school possibly for an online it degree. Then he would be able to work at his own pace and not have to spend the money on gas to get to school since that is a great expense especially these days with $4+ a gallon gas prices.
