Hi wilderness,

I hope you a good weekend. Be careful with all of that snow out there! It sounds like a lot of us are getting hammered with snow. Take good care of you!

We received alot of snow overnight.

Hey Girlie! To answer you question YES!!!! Menu planning definately helps me to stay on program because I always know what I am going to be having for lunch and dinner each day. I mean obviously I can vary it a little if I want to with the lunches - but my dinners are always planned. It really does help in the fact that I don't have to "THINK" because when I think about dinner my first thought is PIZZA!!! LOL! Which is so not good! Plus the mean planning really helps shake things up a bit because I am making sure that we are not getting bored. We are not eating the same thing every single night.

Have a good day!

Hi Wilderness,
Sorry I've been gone so long. We are also having a nice little snowstorm here (maybe 2 feet!!). I hope your son is feeling better soon. Take care .

Good noc. I will check journals later.

 

[sarahsmom73]

Hope youa re getting some much needed rest!!

Hi wilderness,

I hope that you were able to get the rest that you needed. So, how much snow did you end up with? We have about 6-8 inches if not a little bit more. I don't mind the snow as much as I mind this brutal cold. Makes me want to move to Florida!

Have a great week!

Hope your neck feels better real soon! And your son too! Does he have asthma?

Try and have a good day today!

 

[wilderness01]

I am off to my day.

Hi wilderness - Sorry to hear about your neck. I hope it feels better soon.

Wilderness, I hope your neck feels better soon and you get your ROM back. At least you get to be with the babies at work. Are you working with the newborns? Babies are my favorite - tiny, small, and unable to sass.

I completely understand your thoughts on having a nest egg! Better to be safe than sorry. I applaud you for taking the time and energy to rebuild your egg, and get that vacation to the beach!

I hope your DS feels better soon. Both of mine are home from school today. Something must be going around!

Wilderness:

I live with the sore neck all the time...somedays ROM is near 0 and I have difficulty just glancing over my shoulder to check on-coming traffic. Please see someone for it before it gets any worse.

I'm sorry the bug is going around and your DS has it. Not good!

Its interesting you mention building back up that "nest egg". Since my DH has been out of work - we've really cut back (started about a year prior to him being laid off because he'd gotten a warn notice the year before). It takes some getting used to but there are things I thought I couldn't live without and guest what - I don't miss them. If he gets that job (interview on Thursday) we'll probably still keep expenses as low as possible and really put away some cash saving for a new kitchen.

Again, take care of yourself!

I am off to work tonight.

Hi Wilderness,

I hope your neck feels better. Do you think you pinched a nerve, or is it muscular. Be careful tonight. I know you work with babies, but still.

You DH and mine sound similar. When we talked about having Katie, we knew I wanted to stay home until she was in 1st grade. We went bare bones for 3 years to build that nest egg. It has dwindled a bit faster than expected r/t the house, so that is why I work what I do. I am really glad I was able to spend 3 years working 20 hrs a month when Katie was an infant. I would never have been able to save that without Won. I think you need that balance for things to work.

Have a good shift,
Beth
