Groupons

Groupon is an AWESOME site. You sign up and they send you daily deals for your neck of the woods. :)

Try it out! I use it all the time.

Here is a referral code. If I get friends to sign up, I get $10.00 towards one of my Groupons. :D

Either way you should still check it out!

Worth it.

Days are long, children routy, family needy, house needs cleaning, homework worked on, dinner made, dishes washed, laundry washed and folded.....the list goes on and on.

What makes it worth it? When one or all of your kids says:

"Momma, You're the best mommy in the whole wide world"

:) makes my heart warm

Bubba Gump Shrimp...

I get cold sores. I have since I was young, just something that happens mostly when I get sick or stressed but can pop up if I sun burn my lips or if I let them get super chapped and they peel really bad. Well chapped they got and peel they did and last night they felt bruised. I hoped and prayed that it was just them hurting from the peeling! But that was not my luck. This morning I woke up to...yes...cold sores.

Now here's the kicker. Most of the time I get them in one spot on my upper lip. Its actually a different color then the rest of my lips because its scarred so badly from all the other times its blistered there. But that spot was saved instead my whole bottom lip is one big blister. We (in my family) call this the bubba gump shrimp lip, because by the time its at its peek with the swelling I seriously look like bubba and talk like him too.

Its humorous......a month later when I'm not dying because my lip hurts and itches and looks disgusting. And right before valentines day! Ya this pretty much rocks (I hope you see that was dripping with sarcasm!)

O well whats ya ganna do right?

Silver Lining

So we should always look for the silver lining, the upside in things. I'm trying to look on the upside of my office moving to Carson.

- I get to see my Carson friends and family on lunches and such whom I haven't seen in such a long time.

- My doctors are still based in Carson. I just haven't switched them over so I can start setting up appts again.

- We are considering putting the children in school in Carson since I would be closer and if we did so the daycare would be close to 200 cheaper then what we could find.

I don't like the fact of commuting but if we can buy a house in South Reno within the next six months to a year then it will be about a 20-30 minute drive, instead of a 45 minute to an hour drive. Our office isn't scheduled to move for another five months or so. But anything could change. But for now that is what I see as positive about this situation. :)
