Day 30...

Finally got around to day 30. Go me!

A picture of myself today (it's a beauty) and 5 good things that have happened since I started this challenge.
Yeah....looking pretty hot this morning...not! It's the best I can do. I think I overdid it yesterday getting Charlotte's party ready and cleaning. My back is paying for it today. Good news is I have very little today so lots of time to rest! Woohoo! So here I sit catching up on blogging.

Alright, now 5 good things that have happened. Well I found a friend that lives around the corner is pregnant. Scott home teaches their family and he knew her in high school and kinda knew her husband but has gotten to know him better. They're pretty awesome and have two of the cutest boys ever (if I'm lucky Charlotte will marry one of their boys and then she'll have awesome in-laws!). I'm so excited for them. Babies are springing up in our ward. Another good thing is that I ovulated... only 50 some odd days as opposed to 64... yahoo! So if I'm lucky I could have a kid about the same time she does. That would be so sweet!

So other than that I was trying to think of other stuff that happened. At first it didn't seem like good stuff but now that I think about it and try to turn it around positive I think it will be a good thing. We're down to one car until we can get the money to fix Scott's car and get it registered. So if I have to go out of Tooele I need to arrange something with Scott to use the car or hitch a ride with my mom. In town I can ride my bike. So more exercise for me and plus Charlotte loves to ride the bike so double bonus! We'll also save a lot more on gas money. My car has a $17 gallon tank so it costs about $50 to fill it.That sucks!

Another thing is a job Scott normally does Thursday mornings (he'd go to work at 3am every Mon and Thurs) is only running once a week. So now on Thurs he won't start until around 7am (he works at 5am pretty much every other day). So that's 4 hours he'll be losing out on. We think he'll be able to make it up on other days but we'll see. So yeah, that sucks but it'll help us learn to budget even better and tighten stuff up more and be a little more resourceful so gotta look at it as a good thing. I think we're gonna learn a lot from it.

I think that's 4 so last one.... Charlotte turned 2! That's a great thing! I'm so excited to see her getting bigger and talking more. She's so smart and so funny. I just love to see her growing up. She is a blast... minus the fits :)
