Purty sad
Its pretty sad when Quicken suggests you schedule your transactions with the liquor store, isn’t it?
Today it said that $28.32 was overdue to Discount Liquor. Best get on that

disjointed post
1. Blizzard???? Yesterday??? and right now it is nearly 50 degrees. Ok.
2. Did our taxes. For the first time in several years, we owe NOTHING. In fact, between the state and the fed., we get back $6! PARTY!
3. Lydia does the neatest trick. She will lay on her belly, spread her legs WIDE apart, split-style, and then use her arms to push herself backwards (legs remaining spread), until she is sorta sitting, then she pulls her legs out front, and viola, she has gone from laying to sitting! I don’t recall ANY of my other kids using this method to sit up!
4. Back on Weight Watchers. sigh. Thought I could do it on my own, and I probably could, but with all the stress my eldest daughter has been causing me, and all the anticipatory stress delaying taxes was causing (HA! TAKE THAT!), I found I wasn’t…in fact, I was resorting to stress eating big time. I have, consequently, gained back all the weight I lost after Lydia was born (about 15lbs), so now I weigh exactly what I did a few days after she was born. That will never do!
5. Listed some auctions on Ebay, and did better than expected! Now if I can only get two deadbeats to pay up I have a few more things to list. I was doing it in hopes of earning some money to pay my taxes (HA HA! TAKE THAT AGAIN!), now I am thinking I will do it to either purchase Spelling to Write and Read OR Rosetta Stone Spanish. Truly, a homeschool curriculum addict.
I guess that’s it!

First conversation of the day
Allison: (in a sad whiney tone) Mommy, my throat hurts when I swallow.
Meredith: Well my throat hurts when I swallow GUM.
