      I bet you can guess. Look at the list for just one second and think to yourself, "what would she do first?" I bet you figure it out right away.

    I think a nap should be added in there. LOL Wait that is my list.
    I'm trying to find new ways to cut some expenses off of the main budget.

      I wish! I can't nap. Everytime I do I wake up ready to kill someone; horrible headache and weird rage issues. Naps + me = very bad.

    The sun is so necessary for mental health. Glad you are getting some and also feel like trying something new. I wish I had taken the time to do things like that when my kids were little

      We've really not seen the sun all month :( Until today.
      It seems like trying new things helps pick me up a bit though. And honestly I LOVE experiencing new things with little Abe (even if they are only new to him). Watching a child learn has been one of my all time favorite experiences ever since I was a young adult. The amazement, the joy, the fun they have doing new things, I love it!
