Header Fun

Love my new header? So do I. Thanks to my friend Sheila (a skilled artist) for creating it.

My Mission

As you can probably tell by the lack of new blogs, life is crazy. My mom was staying with us for 2 weeks before she could move in their apartment, I had layoffs at my work, Ryan’s been working 10-16 hour days, my work’s been busy and I’ve been stressed about it all. Ryan got home at 6:30 one night last week. It was the first time he’s been home in the 6:00 hour in probably a month.

I've also been increasingly motivated to get us the heck out of here. I'm devoting all my free time to making it happen. I know it'll probably take a while, but I'm tired of just talking about it.

However, this crappy economic situation is slowing my progress. Isn't it kinda scary out there right now? Fortunately, it hasn't directly effected us yet, but who knows how bad this could get.

On a happy note, the NKOTB concert is Friday! My friends and I are so excited. I bought their greatest hits CD this weekend to refresh myself on the songs. I have a good husband to put up with that! I owe him, perhaps this.

A Day Worth Noting

Today I did something that I’ve never done before. I bought my very own Coach handbag at Bloomingdales. It’s so pretty.

And because I’m my husband’s wife, I did not pay full price. You got a sale on Coach bags, you say? Yes. I got $100 off on sales plus a $30 gift card to Bloomingdales.

Step by Step

Julie got the tickets! I'm working on finding a flight home for the weekend. I'm gonna have to get some NKOTB tapes to refresh myself on the songs! I wonder if I still have an old NKOTB t-shirt I can wear to the concert?!

It's Official

Today my mom took her one-way flight from Cleveland to Burbank. My dad's driving out over the weekend.
