[MostlySunny]

Placed my supplemental order:
Tuscan Cocoa
Nut Case (I LOVE this stuff, anyone else?)
Peppermint Blast

Hope that helps me on weird taste bud days.

Used my holiday coupon!

I painted a chair this morning. Have 3 more to do before I go back to work. If it cools off I’ll have the girls help me tonight.

Felt good to be a little productive.

All my furniture is old, ugly, and worn out. 2 more years of college, then maybe some new stuff.

Exactly.... till then a splash of white paint will due.

And I ordered a new table runner and napkin holder. That should spruce up the kitchen table enough.

It was kind of neat. It was Walnut and a Maple that grew together and basically became one tree. Unique.

now that would make some interesting furniture or doodads...

Just as I told a dear friend of mine, they will work the mess out of you if you let them. Your health is worth more than extra cash. I am not saying don't work overtime. Seriously consider those words. Your body needs at least 7 hours of sleep to repair and defrag so to speak. Now and then isn't the killer. The consistency of it is what will eventually get you. A combination of this got me, along with a high stress job, and that environment. I can't go into more detail on that. It is your life, and your decision.

its not the matter of extra money... its a matter of making ends meet. this last month was a devistator on the savings... new windshield for van 300$, new tires on car 350$, dog fixed 150$, wifey Drs. 200$, the wedding 800$, tow fees 425$, A/C unit 500$... now I have to save up for engine parts etc... 1000$??? maybe... sometimes we dont have a choice...

Totally get this. My hubby works all kindsa weird hours and whatnot to provide for us...it just doesn't seem right but it is what it is. I am so very blessed to have a man who is willing to work so hard for us, as is your wifey. We DO notice, and greatly appreciate the sacrifices you guys make for us.

Okay BK, I see what you are saying. I did not have a choice either, we were often forced to work over time. Before I had my issues, I was regularly getting 4-5 hours of sleep. It changed my life, and it just about killed me. It ruined my health, and I will never regain what was lost. I am lucky that I got to see my kids grow up, I will say that.

Ceejay, I am glad that you appreciate your husband. It is not easy these days, and it seems to get harder every year.

Okay, I will leave it there. This might be a big reason why I try to learn more about natural food and remedies. I learn what I can, and just keep going slowly but surely.

That haircut must have taken years off of you!

People tell me I look 40 years younger when I get my eyebrows trimmed.
