Happy Home

Sure, Joel is bored out of his gourd right now. And maybe he is a little on the depressed side...

But I really enjoy having him home right now. I'm pretty sure Sophia and Millie feel the same way.

At least until the money runs out!

Nooooooo

Well, that word came out of Sophia's mouth earlier than anticipated.

And let me tell you, Nooooooooo is all we hear.

Unless we ask her if she wants a snack and it's a full, loud and clear YEEEESSSSSS. Just like her mamma. Love her food!

Cutting The Fat

Netflix is cancelled.

DVR is gone. Cable is gone.

We're filing for WIC. We've contacted the mortgage company. We're meeting with a lawyer about health insurance.

Jobs have been searched and some have been applied to.

Sure it's been busy, but the best part? It's a Wednesday afternoon and Joel, Sophia and I got to go take a walk. Together.

Good News Bad News

Ok, so what do you want first? Good news? Or Bad news?

How about the bad news.

They say a job is just a job, but for Joel it was his dream. He ACTUALLY enjoyed going to work every day, that crazy kid. Unfortunately, the world right now isn't making enough money to keep golf course architects employed, so we are now down to me working part-time. At a mall. With mostly shoplifters.

We're sort of in shock right now and we know that there is a bigger plan for us, but right now it is a big hit of emotions. Health Insurance. Mortgage. Utilities. Starbucks. At least most of our disposable debt is paid off. We'll get through this, but as I've said all day, it's just really sad to see someone who truly loved what they did lose that part of themselves.

Such is life.

So for the good news.

Pregnant!

We will be welcoming a new family member this February...and didn't I just mention we have lost our health insurance? This might be one pricey baby, but we're excited nontheless!

So to all the crazy life changes that have happened to anyone, this blog is for you.

R.I.P.

I always hate when celebrities pass away.

They're kind of our royalty and fantasy characters and when they are no longer with us, it sort of makes life feel more vulnerable.

My thoughts are with them and their families and close ones.
