Nesting Update

Naaawww. I didn't even come close to getting all that done.

I did get all my laundry washed and dried. But not put away. That's the part I hate the most.

That's it. I know, horrible. Oh! And I did all the dishes.

But.....One of the guys I work with is a big gardener. He got a new-to-him composter thing that spins so he brought his old bins to me for my compost.

I am sooooo freaking excited. I can now move my compost pile into round bins. I meant to take pictures this morning but I got distracted by the kids. I promise I will get some pics tomorrow, just in case anyone is as excited (or even close to it) as I am.

I have to go to Walmart today after I get off work because I have coupons that are going to expire in the next couple of days. So maybe I will pick up some shelves while I am there.

Goals-Update

1) Create budget~~Nope, didn't get this done.

2) Create menu~~I did do this. Hub still has to look it over and let me know if he needs something added or taken off.

3) Vacuum~~I did this too!

4) Finish diaper cake~~I didn't even LOOK at this thing. I was having too much fun playing with the boys.

5) Get ALL laundry washed and put away~~I didn't do a single load. Ha!

6) Work on book~~I didn't get to this either.

7) Yard Work~~Hub worked all weekend and the wind blew like crazy. I didn't want to go outside and smoke because of the wind. (But I did, but I didn't like it) There was no way that I was going to try to rake grass or plant something.

8) Find sunscreen~~I didn't need to. I didn't spend much time outside. See above.

9) Play some Rockband or Guitar Hero with Monk Man~~Yep, we played Guitar Hero a little. Monk Man played more than I did though.

Goals for this weekend

1) Create budget
~~This baffles the hell out of me. I have been putting it off because I get depressed when I try to deal with our sucky debt. I have got to figure this budget thing out. We are spending way too much money. Scroll to the bottom of the blog and look at my ticker. I gave us a year to get out of debt. $50,000 in a year? I hope so. If this is the ONLY thing I accomplish this year, I will still be thrilled. I cant wait until we don't have to live paycheck to paycheck anymore and have some money in the bank. I have some friends on babycenter that are giving me a TON of support and ideas.
2) Create menu
~~Maybe we can stop going to the grocery store every damn day? We have so many weird things in our pantry due to the almost daily grocery runs. Questions? See the above paragraph.
3) Vacuum
~~Ugh. I hate to vacuum. It hurts my back but I am sick of walking on popcorn seeds. Thanks Monk Man. Thanks.
4) Finish diaper cake
~~I have GOT to get this done. I am afraid that Hub or Monk Man will destroy it before KK's baby shower.
5) Get ALL laundry washed and put away
~~Someone on babycenter gave me brilliant advice about laundry. As soon as the clothes are dry, fold, hang and put it ALL away before starting a new load. Genius! I am going to try it this weekend.
6) Work on book.
~~I have been neglecting this. I was putting it off until I got a new laptop so I could have easy access to it anywhere. But a few days ago I found this amazing thing Google offers. Google can store your documents somehow and you can access them from ANY computer. For FREE!
7) Yard Work
~~Hub wants to plant some more grass. Hopefully it will stay warm (in the 70's) enough to get some outside time.
8) Find sunscreen
~~I am so pale, I am clear. I would love to have a teeny bit of a tan but my skin only has 2 colors, clear and red. I burn so easily. I already have skin cancer fears due to the ridiculous amount of time I spent outside growing up. There is this mole thing on my lower back that appeared right after Monk Man was born and there is something going on with the bridge of my nose that I am worried about. Oh well, I will take care of all that later.
9) Play some Rockband or Guitar Hero with Monk Man. We both LOVE these games. The microphone that came with the drums and guitar is broken. Need to get that fixed so I can sing while Monk Man drums.

When I get back to work on Monday, I will let you all know how well I did on the goals. Off to find the sunscreen before I forget!
