I know I know…I promised you a new blog design WEEKS ago.  Looks like there are a few more glitches to iron out and Chris (that’s my husband) has been really busy at work so we must wait.  I know, how dare him?!

I have been soooo lazy lately.  I have a million things to blog about, like our debt diet, the importance of fathers in their children’s lives, health care, the new purse I got to review.  I am going to make a BIG effort to get all of these posts done this week.  Although I think I’ll save the purse review for when the new blog design is up because I am also going to be giving one away.  So look out for that post…because this purse…is AWESOME!

Do you have this problem?  Whenever I put on mascara whichever eye I do second never turns out as good as the first.  Doesn’t matter which eye I start with.  It is a daily irritation.  I’ve even considered spacing them out like one eye now, the other an hour from now.  It’s sickening really.  Please tell me I’m not the only one.

When I was a little girl I always thought it was funny the way my grandparents called each other “Mom” and “Dad”.  Especially since their kids were long grown and out of the house.  I always swore I would never engage in such strange behavior.  Then out of no where I become a mom and my husband and I start calling each other “MOM” and “DAD”!  What the heck is that all about?  I can’t even stop it, like there is some cosmic force overpowering me.  I am determined it is genetic and must skip a generation because I’ve never heard my parents to refer to each other that way.

Well…it’s official, I start graduate school in one week!  I’ve been a full time mom for almost a year now and I am just now finally starting school (which was the plan from the beginning).  I can’t wait.  I’ll be going to ASU and getting a Masters of Education in Higher and Post Secondary Education.  Try saying that in one breath!  Basically I’ll be able to work in a college or university as an academic advisor or something of that nature.  Which I’m super stoked about because I love telling people what to do advising people.

Did you hear about this hotel in San Diego that is offering a “Survivor” rate of $19 a night?  The rooms are normally over $200 a night!  Basically you are camping out in a hotel room with no bed, a/c, toiletries, or lights.  But it’s way better than real camping because you have a toilet, a shower, shelter, and you’re like in SAN DIEGO!  With access to the hotels pools and restaurants too.  I am dying over the fact that there is no way we can do this right now because of the debt diet.  So please somebody take advantage of this and then tell me about it so I can live through you. Pretty please?
