Here's to hoping

that the rain slows down before it floods again!!

It's supposed to be partly sunny this weekend, which of course is both our weekends to work so that leaves doing anything pretty much out. But if I can get hubby up and moving in the afternoon maybe we can get the dogs out for a nice walk...

I've gotten my new computer and both having sound is just amazing!!

I'm off to work now so talk to you'all later

We are back

to our regularly scheduled pouring rain!


We did absolutely nothing this past weekend even though it was our weekend off since it has done nothing but pour, have high winds and major flood watches, so we decided to err on the side of caution and sit at home. We did get a few home related things done and now we are both of to work me for 4 days and hubby for 6 days so we won't be doing much of anything until our next days off.


I do need to make an appointment with out tax lady and we'll try to get out to see her hopefully not this weekend but the next one to give her our tax stuff, unless I can get her daughter to take it out to her next time she goes to see her.


I can't believe it's almost March already and here's to hoping we finally get some dry weather and sunshine!!

Working the budget

So we got paid and I took money out for all our envelopes and so far it's going good, we have been pretty careful about using what is in our envelopes and not really touching the checking account. I was able to triple pay each of our envelopes since I worked some over time and wanted to make sure and get them up and running since I know we will have some expenses coming up that we will need the envelopes for.


On the down side, it's been raining and snowing here so we haven't done any outdoor activities, although my Sciatica has been bothering me pretty bad and I've been having trouble walking, I did finally go to the doctor and she wants me to have an injection to see if that will help. I'm pondering that thought though not sure I'm ready for any shots in my back..

Trying to get back to normal

So we've been back a couple of weeks now and are still trying to get things back to normal.


There were a lot of things that needed done when we got home, a tree has fallen down in our back yard, litter boxes changed, house to clean things that happen when you leave a 23 year old male alone in a house for 2 weeks, but he did a great job keeping DH fish alive in his tank so we're happy with that.


We haven't really done much with our finances yet since we haven't gotten paid since we came back, but we do have our budget set up and envelopes are all set some even with some money in them already!


We will be doing our first budget on the 13th and we will hopefully have some money left over although I do know it takes 3-6 months to get a set budget! Here's hoping for a faster one.....
