Summertime

So, the kids are out of school and it's officially summer. I would have to say that it's my least favorite season of the year. I think Fall is my favorite, followed by winter, then spring. Lastly... summer. I don't know why really, I guess it's because it's so dang hot! I love the fall and the fall holidays. I would have to say Thanksgiving is my favorite. It's all the food I think, and without being obligated buy many presents :) .

Anyways, the summer started out fine. Jake's baseball is over and that's great news. It's always fun but it's a relief when it's over because it takes up so much time. Then, we went to Arkansas for 2 weeks to visit my family. It was a very good visit! for the most part.

My job(s) are doing good. I'm not exactly sure how long I will be able to do both of them. My goal is to get all of the credit cards paid off and then save money for Christmas and some extras. It would be great if I could put money back to fix up this house. I just want it DONE...NOW.

I love my cat but I hate fleas, and the poor kitty is bringing them in. Guess who is the one who gets bit by them ALL THE TIME? Yeah, you guessed it....me. They love me and it's driving me crazy. I did the fogger in the house on Monday and I think I'm going to do it next Monday too. It's getting too much for me and I just want to pull all the (nasty) carpet and put hardwood or laminate. Seriously, this carpet has seen better days. I know my kids can be messy but I think it was messed up before we came to live here anyways. So I think hardwood would be so much cleaner and easier to clean up spills and everything. Maybe by the end of the summer I can have all those credit cards paid off and enough money to do what I want to do. Fingers crossed!

Well, I better get back to work because it's how I'm getting the $$ to do all this stuff I want to do. :)

I'm so glad you updated and that things are going well. Sorry to hear about the fleas. We had that problem at the first house we rented. I guess they were there when we moved in and at the first heat wave they all hatched. Disgusting to say the least. It wouldn't have been quite as bad if they would have been from our animal, but since we didn't have one, we knew they were from someone else...gross! I hope you can get rid of them soon. We had to do a couple of those fogger bombs and then they were gone.
