Something to think about...

Ponder this...

If you spent a MILLION dollars A DAY from Christ's birth until today you would have spent 733, 285, 000, 000. That is billions folks...

The government stimulus bill that just passed was 787, 000, 000, 000. So, do the math. I will wait. Let it sink in. And...

...a whopping 13.00 a week goes into your pocket! The is a whole 52.00 a month! 

So, what are you going to "spend" your extra cash on??? 

In our household, that won't even make a dent. I won't be spending it on new clothes, tv's, or eating out. I will be spending it on bills. That is it. With three kids, student loans, a house STILL for sale two states away (which is under valued for our current mortgage) and food to put on the table my basics are all that matter.

Kids are funny!

Man, oh man I love my children as they grow they are getting funnier and funnier...

The 3yr old to the 8yr old, "You're a rock star and I'm a rock star. Let me rock your world!"

The 3yr old and her hair, "Mom, my hair is all crazy! Fix it? I can't see anything!"

The 5yr old eating ice cream, "I don't have a brain freeze. I have an eyeball freeze!"

The 5yr old giving me a compliment, "Mom, you look pretty today. I like your underwear."

The 3yr old on potty training, "Good-bye poopie! See you tomorrow!"

The 5yr old beating Grandpa on a video game, "Pa, you're not very good. We have to find something easier for you."

The 8yr old after listening to music with her Dad, "Was that Salt with a little bit of Peppa?"

The 3yr old standing at the door ready to leave, "Let's roll Mom!"

The 3yr old crying in her car seat, "I want to go to church to see all of the animals! Not to be quiet!"

The 3yr old at the McD's drive-thru, "E, do you want a hot fudge sundae?" "Yes Mama. I want a hot dodge fun day!"

Now, this looks a little "3yr old" heavy, but I swear I can laugh several times a day at the clever and cute phrases from all of my children. There are more to come, but today the 3yr old happens to be in the funny zone...;-)

I've been missing in action...for a long, long time...

So you're wondering, "where the heck is she?" Well, I don't have a good excuse. Other than I've been busy and trying to keep up with life. However, I must admit I found a new "online obsession"...FACEBOOK!!!

My, oh my...I'm addicted. Seriously, I've been a very bad girl. I log on several times a day to check on the "status" of others, add pics, update my "wall" and other things. However, I've really enjoyed finding old college and high school classmates. It is so fun to reconnect with them and see where life has taken them...careers, marriages, children, etc. 

However, during my hiatus I've come to realize that I miss my pathetic blog. I hope to update it more frequently and really trying writing something of substance. (We'll see...)
