April brought a lot of pain to my household and I'm ready to say hello to May and see what she holds in store for us!
We found ourselves a little "over budget" at the end of March because...well...I go overboard on birthday parties and Landon's 5th was no excpetion. We also had our spring break trip in there...so...anyway...we pretty much started April out ALREADY broke! Even when I got my Scentsy pay, it all had places it had to go. I'm selling ACE now too (wonderful product...ask me about it), and that pays really well, but when I put in my bank info for direct deposit I made a typo so I'm still waiting on about $100!
Then we had one hellish week there when everybody seemed to be running in different directions with a million things going on. Dentist appointments, field trips, soccer, tball, gymnastics, karate...just when stress levels were getting high, we lost one of our fur babies...Landon's little guy, Rocky :( We waited about a week and then took him to the animal shelter to let him "adopt" a new baby and so things got a little better around here. Sciut is our new buddy, he's part lab, part beagle and he's beautiful! He has a funny little bark though, lol!
About a week ago, we had a family come and look at our house (Yay! We're getting closer to closing on our land!) We felt really positive about this family. He told Alan he would talk to the bank...aaaand...we haven't heard back from them...that was a real bummer!
Then, the absolute worst heartache I've ever felt hit me over this past weekend. It's crazy...okay...started out when a hose came loose on my washer and flooded my laundry room, kitchen, and living room...as if cleaning up that mess wasn't enough for one day, while I was loading all the laundry into my car, in the garage, MY fur baby, of nearly 8 years,got out in the front. Now...we live really close to a county road that people drive crazy on...anyway...long story short...I had to face the reality that my Rosie girl is gone. I'm pretty sure I literally lost my mind for about 24 hours. That's all I want to say about all that.
Anway...I'm feeling back to myself, just today...seems like I went about 2 weeks there where I had no life in me. I didn't want to get up, didn't want to clean house, didn't want to fix my hair or put on make-up, didn't want to do anything more than I absolutely had to with my kids...I was grouchy, cranky, and lazy! I'm seriously beginning to think this is all hormone related...I just don't really know. Anyway...I'm going to take advantage of feeling better and tomorrow being the first day of a new month...an exciting month!!!
