Sorry, guys. I just haven't had time. What with sleeping most of the afternoon. And playing with the kids, and trying to figure out ways to make my life work a little better.
Isaac got into a bed of ants this morning, poor baby. Thankfully we were at the church, and some people there had an idea of what we should do to treat his bites so that they look a lot better this evening. At some point today I realized I hadn't paid the bills on September 1 like I normally do. I made out the budget; I transferred the money into the count so I could make the payments on the bills; but I forgot to actually pay them. Thankfully most of them are on automatic and the ones that aren't weren't due yet. I haven't gotten us into any kind of trouble by forgetting.
Also, I lost a few of my receipts in the great purging of my house that took place last evening. Fortunately these were expenses that a) weren't tax deductible, so I don't have to prove them to anyone, and b) had been paid with by credit card so that I can reconstruct the lost activity by referring to my credit card statements. This wouldn't really matter to anybody else, but I try to track absolutely every penny we spend, partly for tax reasons, but primarily for budgeting reasons. Even if we weren't in financial straights, I would prefer to keep my records with that level of detail.
Now it's time to watch Little Einsteins with Isaac and maybe find a few more things to throw away. I apologize again for the delay in posting anything. These are times when it's good not to have a large following, and good that those who do read my blog are mostly friends.
