Nothing

Guess what I have decided to do this evening (after going to Bed Bath & Beyond, the mall and Mimi's Cafe for dinner)? Nothing! That's it... absolutely nothing and everything that I haven't done in a while.
I caught up on Ugly Betty from this week and learned that next week is going to be the last episode... very upset about that, but nothing I can do about it except for seriously enjoy it last week.
This month seems to be a great month so far and is only going to get better. Peezy had a doctor appointment today to check her ears as one of the tubes had been clogged/blocked after she had them put in and went for her post-op. The verdict is that her ears are clear! The first time in since before Christmas that she hasn't had an ear infection. I'm very happy about that.
Next, we have my job. It seems to be going great and the accounting department has given my boss the go ahead for us to do something that I think we should have been doing all along, so that is a plus. I also got trained in a billing function (which is not "my" function) so there are now two of us in the entire company that know how to do this particular task.
Hubs' job is great and he's trying out for a special task force at work at the end of the month. I'm sure that he'll get it as he's awesome at his job and they have come after him to fill this position. Needless to say we're excited about it.
This is the last month of this semester in school. I have decided to take the summer off to spend time with the family and not to spend the money on it since we're having to pay the deductible for the girls' surgeries. Which is a lot. Not to mention that I think I did pretty good this semester. This is my first time going back to school and really dedicating myself to doing it and doing it well in a long time. I have to give thanks to my hubs for this one. He has been extremely supportive and I couldn't ask for more!
I have re-worked our budget and we should be having a lot of money left over every month and hubs has committed this evening to really sticking to our weekly allowances and the rest to pay bills and necessities. Whatever is left over will sit into the bank until we get to a comfort level of $3000 and then will put anything above that into a savings account. I told him how much we could have by the end of the year and he was really excited so we will be closer to our goal of buying some land, paying it off and then building a house within the next five years (woo!).
My grandmother had surgery Tuesday and she came out of it OK.
Easter was great this year. Like it is every year, but this year Peezy understood more of what the egg hunts were about and was a much more active participant in them! It was great and we got some good pictures.
My in laws put in a bid on a beach house and they were outbid on it, BUT that just means it wasn't meant to be and they will find something else they like better that is more "them." I am actually very excited about it. I just really hope it has a private pool like this place did so when I put the girls down I can go chill out by the pool. I'm not really good at laying out but I am good at falling asleep and if I can do that and get some sun at the same time then awesome, so it would be good if we were somewhere I could lie by the water and still hear the baby monitor!
This month has been great so far and we're only on day eight so I can't wait to see what the rest of the month will bring.
