So we hear….

So we hear from the home front that
power was restored to our neighborhood this evening.  It's
comforting to know when we return home there will at least be a
termostat who's little red line has come alive once again.  For
those of you who haven't read last night's blog that little red line
had disappeared as a result of an ice storm. 

Tonight
we went to the local Stuffmart to get diapers and a few things. 
Both my husband and I forgot our wallets/pocketbooks. 
Lovely!  My mother in law was kind enough to drive down the
mountain to bring us money at 9pm.  Have you ever tried to hang
out in the front part of Stuffmart and just wait?  Seeing how I'm
in the major throws of PMS I was just about to sell my second born for
diaper money.  If he has a quarter it must be spent.  I have
officially banned any purchases FOREVER until he can make it through
ANY store without begging me for everything he sees. 

As my easiest child my second born has this one area that needs lots of
work.  It must be a stage he's going through because he was so
good at saving money for a while.  Now it burns a hole in his
pocket.  If anyone has any suggestions for redirecting this
annoying behavior I'm all ears!

Well once again tonight I'm
lying in bed typing as my husband unwinds from our day
downstairs.  The heat is hopefully back on at home.  I'm
supposed to be out on a super romantic date with my husband (see last nights blog entry)
and instead I'm PMSing and recovering from our Suffmart trip (after a
cup of decaf and a chocolate bar).  As my kids say, “Not fair!”

Good night……
Julie
