My Little Crafty Corner

The hubby asked me if I could create a website for him. Uh, I think so. I have to check into some things first to see if it will work, and see if the name they want is available for them to use. I can host it on my server, so that will be a bonus for them.

In doing this for him (them), he is going to to look into things for me, that he keeps putting off. Like term life insurance, health insurance, and if the pay will be more for him. I hate how men leave things like this until the last possible second! He has me on pins and needles!

So I guess I will be adding another new hobby to my list…. making websites. I know I can set up a blog, but not to sure on the website. I will give it a try though! It will save them some money in the long run, if I can indeed do this for him!.

For my daycare, I am constantly writing out receipts for payment. I should invest in an epson receipt printer, then I could print out duplicates, one for the client and one for myself.

I could also use it for any items I sell. In the long run it would pay for itself. Plus it would be a tax write off. You know me, I save every receipt and find one way or another to write it off!

I am slowly healing. I can go most of the day without wearing the splint. I still have some pain when I lift things, but not anything like it was before. I am thinking about picking up the needles and seeing if I can knit a few stitches. I am using soup cans as weights right now, then slowly working my way up to the other weights.

John has been drinking organic apple cider vinegar, as he heard it did good things for joints and stuff. He hasn’t seen any improvement in his shoulder, but its cleared up his acne and is better than any acne scar removal product out there. Some of the deep pitted ones look really good now! As much as I can’t stand the smell of the stuff, he needs to keep drinking it, as its working! He now just need to work out and get back into shape. Guess its time for me to crack my whip!

Have you ever stopped and reevaluated your careers? I have done this so many times. I wish I would have stayed in the medical field at times. But then I stop and think about all of the office politics that I have dealt with in the many offices I worked at and am thankful that I am a SAHM and have my own daycare business.

I am hoping that soon, I can just be a full time SAHM. We are working on things, so that maybe by the time Trent starts school in the fall I can be done. Fingers crossed!

Now that I have lots of extra time on my hands, I am in cleaning mode. Well as much as I am allowed to do with one arm. I have noticed how dirty my ceiling fans are! Yuck! Can you guess what will be on my to do list for tomorrow?! I have 5 of them in my house. I will tackle the down stairs one first, the upstairs will have to wait until my hubby gets home so he can carry the vacuum cleaner upstairs for me. The boys will then be told to vacuum their rooms as well! I don’t know that last time they did this!

Hubby and I both have the day off tomorrow. We are starting off with a breakfast date, then off to do some shopping. I am hoping for some sales on jeans. The ones I bought him at Christmas don’t fit, and he had washed them before he tried them on, so there was no taking them back. Darn! He’s going to have to commit to the diet to actually fit in them, but in the mean time he still needs a few pairs he can wear now.

I want a new watch. This one is cute, but not sure if I want a purple watch, as not all my clothes are purple, and it would clash.

I will probably stick with the usual, and go with a brown or black band. But you never know, I may go with a gold or silver one. Whatever jumps out at me.

We need to look for a paper towel holder for the kitchen. The one we have, one of the arms broke off. I have looked at a few stores, but no one carries them anymore. Hoping one of the hardware stores in town has one. I am tired of the towels getting wet, and wasting them.

Then it will be close to the time to pick up Trent from school, then those two have a father/son night at church of pizza and bowling. So I get the house to myself!! YaY! What a great way to end my day off!

… has finally caught up with me. When I do my grocery shopping this week I am going to look for some over the counter sleeping pills. I need something! The dark circles under my eyes aren’t so pretty looking. Today a friend asked me how I got a black eye. Yikes! You would think I had a newborn in the house, for as often as I wake up. Nope! Just one of those things.

It doesn’t help that some of my favorite reality shows have started back up. I don’t like to start watching them when the first start, so I DVR them. This way I can fast forward through the commercials. I don’t like to watch live TV anymore.

With everything that has been going on with me this last year, the last thing I want to think about is anti age products. I know I have a few wrinkles, but for my 40+ years, I think I look pretty darn good! I have people shocked when I tell them I have a 22 year old. They don’t believe me. Makes ya feel kind good!

I guess I will keep doing what I am doing… whatever it is, its keeping me young!
