Little Brother
To all those bloggers who are also parents and have full time jobs - I am so impressed!
With have Jordan's little brother staying with us, the frequency that I have been writing has gone down dramatically over the last two weeks! We have had some significant trials over the past while - and although I love the kid like my own little brother, I am so glad his parents get back to town tomorrow.
Little brother will stay with us tomorrow night, and then go back to his home on Friday after school. Following this weekend, I hope to be back to a more regular writing schedule.
Receipt Tracking
This past week I've had a hard time keeping and tracking receipts. We had a lot of additional expenses due to Little Brother being with us (including groceries, socks & underwear, increased gas). I'm going to try again in February.

ReplyDeleteGood, cause I miss you when you don't write.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I could take 2 weeks with a teenager... I'd probably get worn out by trying to keep up with all the stuff that's cool now! And cooking, cuz teenagers sure eat a lot :-)
ReplyDeleteSocks and underwear? I don't think I want to know. it'll be good to see you writing more.
