Menu plans for the week of March 15th-21st

Okay, so this is a little late.

Fine.

A lot late.

I’ve had a lot going on right now, and honestly can’t think.

Life sometimes, gets too crazy, and this time I got swept …Continue Reading…

March 8th-14th Menu Plan

Okay, so let’s try and get back on “the saddle again” and work towards having a full week of not eating out, shall we?

Even if it means eating peanut butter (which we’re out of) and jelly for dinner, I’m going to try my DARNDEST to not eat out.

So, here’s this week’s plan! …Continue Reading…

This week’s menu- March 1st-7th RECAP

Okay, so for our first week of not eating out, we pretty much failed. But, we only ate out once. Which we normally eat out 4-5 times a week. I know, I sighed at that too.

Now, on with the show! …Continue Reading…

It’s a true Domestic Debacle.

Oh dear. We got “paid” this morning. Turns out the cut I mentioned before is really closer to 20%. I had to make humiliating calls this morning, to work out payment plans for our bills. That isn’t the worst of it. We have another cut coming next payday. I think it’s time to get a paying job.

Not only did that happen, but on our *leased* car, the engine light came on. We have to pay $100 just to have the mechanic look at it. The *lease* ends on 3/18. I’m not kidding you. Really, I’m not. Perfect timing, eh?

Disney World is looking further, and further and further away. Just a dream actually.

Now, I’m going to get a little random: Dinner for tonight. Here’s what’s on the menu:
Crock Pot Chicken. I got this recipe from Kraftfoods.com.
Here’s what’s in it:
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can cream of celery soup
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
~spray bottom of crock pot with Pam. Mix soups in a bowl. Put chicken in crock pot, and pour the soup over the chicken. Cover and let cook on low 6-8 hours.
I’m serving mine over rice, and with veggies.

I’ll let you know how it turns out.

It’s the little things

shower

I took a long shower yesterday, and got to wash my hair!

Yesterday, instead of housework, M and I went for a walk. We walked up to the office, and back. She actually listened to me too.

The laundry has piled up, but I don’t mind. We still have clean clothes to wear! This means we have too many clothes. I’ll be gathering them up for the homeless shelter before Saturday.

The weather is great. Warm, not sunny, and breezy- bordering on windy.

My gas bill came in. I’ve overpaid $200. I don’t owe anything, and still have a $108 credit.

Our maintenance tech is coming over to look at our water meter. We’re hoping he’ll find out what’s wrong. I know we don’t use as much water as they are saying.

M pooped in her diaper again. Instead of punishing her, I made a deal. Poop in the potty, and I’ll take you to TRU, and you get a My Little Pony. I’m actually hoping this will get expensive!

I’ve decided, if I can’t change something, I’m just going to go with the flow. Loose lips, sink ships.
Tonight, I get to play with a Cricut. I’m so excited! I’m saving all my pennies for the Expression model.
Last night I went to church, instead of my regularly scheduled program. I am so glad I did!
So, there are some little things going on. I hope I didn’t bore you too much!
