3 DAYS!!

Holy crap, I can't believe I haven't blogged about this yet...

IT'S ONLY 3 MORE DAYS UNTIL MY 21ST BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!! :):):)

all I have to say is.. it's about freakin' time!!

Where's all the excitement?

I've been feeling pretty down lately, can't really pinpoint why this is though. I guess that part of it comes down to being so dang bored all the time. Now believe me, I am not looking for sympathy. I know that there are many things that I could do to keep myself busy!! (like *cough* working out *cough*)

My biggest thing right now is.. money $$. We have no trouble paying our mortgage each month (thank god) and our bills are paid in full, on time each month. But we never have any extra money. We haven't been able to buy groceries for well over a month. It's not like we're starving or anything. I'm grateful that my husband is an avid hunter (except for this year apparently.) because I know we'll always have meat. It's frustrating not being able to just go out and buy groceries whenever we need anything though.

I know that there are a lot of people who are suffering much, much worse than I am.. and I really am thankful for everything that I have. But this is part of why I've been feeling down, so that's why I shared.

I mentioned me getting another job to Joseph, and he totally nixed the idea. He claims he doesn't see me enough as it is now. Which, I admit.. he's right :( And it's not going to get better any time soon.. with winter right around the corner and Joe having to plow and be on call 24/7, it usually makes for a long winter for us. BUT on the bright side.. lots of plowing = lots of extra $$$. Pray for snow, people!! :)

Our goal is to be free of debt (minus the house, of course) by May 1st! We'll for sure pay off Joe's truck and then hopefully most of our credit cards with our tax return. Yay, for an extra $8,000 back!!

THEN, I think we'll be ready for a baby! Pretty exciting, huh? :)

Well, that's all I have time for on a Friday morning. Have a nice weekend everyone!

Just a little boring.

Sometimes I feel like I lead the most boring life ever. Not that I'm not happy with my life right now! Just bored sometimes. Me and Joe are working on it though :)
Anyways, I thought I'd share my weekend!
Friday both Joe and I got done with work around 4:00. I thought that he was coming home right after, but he ended up going over to Jake's house for awhile. (Jake's been down in Plattville and school, so we haven't seen him since he left home in August!) Since the boys all had plans to drink themselves silly (do they ever do anything else?) I decided to go and hang out with my fabulous best friend, Kurt :) It's been way too long since we've actually hung out.. so it was very nice! I came home around 11:00 and got a terrible, terrible headache so I went right to bed.. and sadly still woke up with the headache Saturday morning :(
Saturday I spent most of the morning in bed watching Bones until my headache went away, then I got up and took a shower. The boys were going to finally kill the neon! I don't even know if I should begin the story of the neon.. :/ Oh well, what else am I gona write about.. right?!
The neon was originally Doug's. (Keith's brother) He messed up the passenger door and thought it needed some major engine work, and he didn't want to deal with it anymore. That's when my lovely husband purchased the car for $200. Joe fixed up the door and put in a new altenator and drove the car for about a year, maybe a little longer. Joe is constantly buying and selling cars though, so when he found a better car he sold the neon to Dylan for a case of beer. Dylan pretty much beat the car to shit and they decided that they would just finish it off out at the sandpit. They took it off jumps and drove it right into the sandpit multiple times. Joe dropped a rotten pumpkin on it. And then another good one that shattered the windshield! The poor car, you should have seen it!! When they finally blew the motor, they all took out their guns and shot it. It was pretty fun to watch :)
Well, anyways.. that's the story of the neon for the most part. So that's what I did Saturday afternoon! Then me and Joe went to get dinner in New Richmond. (DQ, we're pretty fancy) Then we headed back to Roberts to help celebrate Cody's 21st at L&M's for a little bit. Poor Joe's tummy felt sick from his burger at DQ, so we called it a night pretty early.
Sunday we went over to my grandparents for my Aunt Melinda's birthday. It's been so long since everyone's been over to my Grandma & Grandpa's.. it was fun! My grandma makes an amazingggggg bonnie butter cake.. that was probably my favorite part of the day :) lol. After we left their house, we stopped at Blockbuster because I've been dying to watch Dukes of Hazzard for SO LONG! I finally had to rent it :) It was just as wonderful as I was expecting. Now if only I could find my copy that I know I have somewhere.. hmmm. Then I can watch it all I want!
Yep.. that was my weekend. :) Now it's Monday.. yay.
