Some time ago I mentioned that something was going on with me but I was not prepared to write about it, well now I’m.
For quite some time I was under the weather. I was sad, nervous, fed up with everything, no patience to take care of the house, the kids, the husband, I was full with everything. Although I knew what these signs were I was hoping they would go away by themselves, but they didn’t. A depression was diagnosed and medication was prescribed. It is a very light medication, …

Easter is just two weeks away and my son is already on school holiday. Usually he has holiday one week before Easter and one week after but once this year Easter is a little late school closes two weeks before. Pre-schools will close only the week before Easter so my daughter still has school for one more week.
When they don’t have school they stay in daycare. Fortunately the daycare where my kids are has a lot of activities and the schedule is already done for school holidays. Next week my …

January, February and March were are tough months. January one life insurance and six month payment to our Medical Clinic; February one insurance and one birthday party, March two insurances and one birthday party. The best part, the Mortgage dropped in March.
Birthday parties at home we are done for this year. It’s my 40th birthday this year but as usual there will be only a small birthday cake just for the view and that’s it. Insurances will repeat in June, July and September and sometimes I feel I …

Now we have some other room to paint but once my husband only as time after work it’s very tiring to paint one room after …
Special Days »
I had a few busy days with the living room painting a birthday party on Saturday and my own daughter’s birthday party on Sunday. And that is what I am going to write about today: Catherine’s fifth birthday.
Yes, my daughter is five years old and I feel the baby is gone for a long time already but I refused to accept it and I have a little girl now.
I did it with my son so now it’s time to do it with her. Here are the words that come up …

This last week I’ve been a little away from blogging world because, besides having a lot of work in the office, I haven’t been having the help of my husband around the house. The reason is a very valid one, he is painting the living room.
We have been on this house for almost 9 years and some rooms have never been repainted. The living room had the walls with a lot of mold that cleaning and washing didn’t remove. It was a little difficult to stare at the walls day …
Shopping, Stay on the Budget »
Middle of the month and as I expected my bank account is red. All the grocery products are being bought with the credit card and we continue to be careful with extra expenses.
I know credit cards can lead us to a tricky situation with a roller coaster effect but I’m carefully using my credit car.
First of all my credit card, which I have for a few years, it’s the only one I have ever had. Although I was offered other well known credit cards I never accepted them. Why do …
