I just completely overhauled our budget and took a hard look at where all our money is going (food and coffee). It's motivating me to get back into debt payoff.
I also deleted instagram and facebook off my phone last night. Both were sort of depressing me and I have way too much going on to spend time on them. Let's see how long this lasts!

I've started seriously researching compound bow shooting, and I think I want to learn how to do it. I told H that he might need to get me one for Christmas.

I have been dealing with screaming tantrum after more screaming tantrums. I'm already ready for bed time...but 8+ hours to go.
Also, our drier (dryer?) broke last night so I guess I should spend some time researching new ones. Thankfully we expected this when we moved in and set aside the money, so we actually gained nearly a year of using them we didn't expect!

Apparently I'm really tired. Normally I'm a SUPER light sleeper...last night my alarm went off for 4 min before DH woke me up (alarm to dream feed C). Then again this morning I didn't wake up for DH's alarm even though I always do and I was up at 4:30 closing C's door (30 min before the alarm went off). I woke up at 5:32 and was quite irrationally irritated that DH didn't wake me up (I love this one hour of quiet before C wakes for the day...thankfully he slept late so I still got my time). In his defense...I really needed the sleep and am feeling quite tired today.
We are listing out house!! Photographer will be here tomorrow if his appointment cancels (which he thinks it will). Otherwise, it will be Tues. We are looking at neighborhoods in new city on Sunday. Things are moving fast! I really hope that we are moved by C's birthday (12/21)...it's going to be a crazy busy finish to 2015!

I have a bow and love it. I have a junior size that fits me well and has less draw weight which is always important.

The bow in looking at is technically a youth bow, too, but all of the reviews say it works really well as a lightweight adult bow.

bk1 Your quilt crafting inspired me to go to JoAnn's and Hobby Lobby today to get supplies to make a fall wreath for our door. I have all the stuff I need and will start tomorrow!

We did errands with MIL most the day so G didn't nap much. Early bedtime tonight! Hoping she will nap extra tomorrow and I will get some sewing time in.

We are still trying to get internet set up. For real. This is ridiculous. They had to come out earlier today to install something to do with the phone box which should have fixed the issue. Now it's broken again. H called and they couldn't even find our account (for some stupid reason they had to give us a new account at the new place). They found it now but they keep putting him on hold. So frustrating! Why is this so difficult?!
luv2rn4fun good luck w the house! The thought of listing my house stresses me out SO MUCH.
Today at work SUCKED nothing was easy. I think it am going to drink a Margarita.
I have been resisting DH on this for months now. The thought of listing, having to keep the house spotless for showings, having showings and C's naps, finding a new house 40 miles away from here, packing and moving all make me so anxious and stopped me for months. It was only when realized the only reason to stay was my mom ( who is currently not talking to me and wants nothing to do with us) and how little there is to do here and how that affects me, then I knew that we needed to start thinking about moving. It's been a long couple months just getting to this place and the hard work is just beginning. Please drink a margarita for me too! And I'm so jealous of your 12.5 hr of sleep...I haven't slept more than 6 straight since C was born.

I got a ton done today! Managed to mow the grass with C (the lawn mower scared him (I had him contained on the porch) so I ended up wearing him so I could get thatdon and help DH out), work on the photographer pre-checklist (remove lots of pictures, towels, etc), talked to our agents and got contracts going, talked to our lender to ge pre-approval going, went for a walk, took a shower, played and took care of C, made dinner and DH's lunch, and C is in bed for the night! Feels like all I did was move around all day or talk/text on the phone.
