endings and new beginnings

      Even though the warm weather is here for a while longer, my summer break with my babies is nearing its end and my sad face is showing. I have taken full advantage of this summer break. With a summer pass to the pool, the kids and i have practically lived there, we are all nice and golden brown, Riveranne has made such progress with the water this summer going from not even wanting a drop to get in her face to swimming like a little fish under the water without holding her nose, Im such a proud mama! Ryder has also made huge strides for him, last year he was the baby on the side of the pool that would rarely even get in, this year he got in had a ball and wasnt afraid at all...hes such a big boy!!! and me well i just loved seeing them have a blast while i got my tan on. Having a great tan always makes me feel great. Along with funfilled days with my babies i have also taken full advantage of being able to stay up late watching movies with nowhere to be in the morning and no bedtime in site...i have had a movie addiction really this summer, i have watched a ton and it has been so nice to just have that quiet time to myself after the kids go to bed yet before jason gets home from work...it has been awesome and im terribly sad to see it come to an end... its gonna take me forever to get back on schedule, im gonna be death for the first couple of weeks...shew wee im tired thinking about it.
      For a long long time i havent worked a public job and even though it has been a mutual decission between me and my husband and he make plenty of money to pay all our bills and such i have felt terrible that i havent been contributing to our family financially. I took the biggest step last year when i decided to sign up for school again and i was so determined to be focused and do well and i did just that and i was so proud of myself. With my second semester coming up soon i cant lie, i am so very excited about it, i actually really enjoyed school last year and the feeling of actually being productive in my life, other than taking care of the kids and the house, made all the difference to me. So this semester i am taking my first meteorology class and that in itsself is what i am most excited about, if you know me and my love for weather then you will totally understand. After taking this class i will decide then whether i am going to continue with a degree in acounting or change it to meteorology...of course in my heart i really want to do meteorology... But on to my point, with the biggest step in helping my family financially being taken, i have recently decided to take yet another step. I signed up to be a thirty-one consultant. I am so very excited about this cause i love all the products and im sure everyone else will also. I hope that i will be able to kick this off right with all the support and help from my friends and family. Not only will it be fun for me but i sure hope that i can make a lil extra money so its a win win situation!!! so heres my shout out, let me know if your interested in booking a party or placing an order with me!!!
     Like being a full-time mother and wife, a full-time student, and a thirty-one consultant werent enough i have now been sucked in by extreme couponing. One of my best friends has been doing it for a while and she created a monster when mentioning it to me..lol. i have been burning up the interenet printing off hundreds of coupons, and new papers for all the coupons i can get, i have my 3 ring binder and my card collecter sleeves to keep them all organized, and as of a couple of days ago my bestie asked me to come along for one of her trips to the store where she taught a few of her secrets and i got entirely to excited about it all and i will now comfirm that i believe i am addicted...yep i am!!! i have even cleaned out our hall closet so it can be where i stash all my goodies!!! there are several of yall out there that will want our secrets but i can share them with everyone, cause i dont want all the deals gone when i want to get them...im selfish i guess!!!
       And as it seems so many things are changing in my wonderfully busy life and i am so very excited about each and everyone of them, there will always be things that will never change no matter how hard i try...just gotta suck it up and keep on with the keepin on. I have a wonderful family and i am so thankful that we are so close my sister is literally my very best friend. me and my friends always have the best time together, we are all crazy and just laugh and laugh and i love it! we are always so comfortable around each other, we dont have to beg and pleed to see each other, regular phone calls and no lies and games!!! Its awesome!!! and im so thankful for all of them. well even thought im so tired i have been fighting sleep for a while cause i just dont want to give in early, its one of the last few night i can actually stay up late...so ill end this now and then prob give on in and hit the sheets!!!
