Getting ready to start a whole nother month

So it's budgeting time again and as I sit here, listening to Garrett whine and Chelsea talk to her dinosaur that eats play-doh, I'm not so surprised that it's already March. With all the stresses and bustling of everyday life it's no wonder we've wandered our way through a quarter of the year already. Yes, I said it. A QUARTER OF THE YEAR!

Today appears to be turning out to be "one of those days". Let me set the setting for you. Garrett is sick and up most of the night. It's now a little after 9 and the lake is so still like a mirror that you can see the birds flying overhead and the trees that loom on the other side of the lake. The fog is lifting but the sun is refusing to shine. It's eerie in a calm sort of way.

10 Things that happened this weekend:
1. Got a rocking chair and Nortictrack Bike from Kevin and Becky for free
2. Got a pop-up camper from Lance for free
3. Cleaned out the car
4. Got all my work done for the week in only 2 hours
5. Got helathy groceries for me to try out more new recipes
6. Spent tons of time outside with the kids at the park and at the house
7. Move the sandbox up to the porch and got new sand
8. Had date night at the movies
9. Worked out hardcore
10. Heard a shooting by Twisters

First to start off with the free items we got. Kevin and Becky, the neighbors, called on Saturday and asked if we wanted to come look at these big items they were planning on taking to Goodwill. We took the rocking chair, which is gorgeous and comfy, and the exercise bike. Becky never uses it now that she has an eliptical. I can't wait to get our new house so we can incorporate all this in our new place.
Also Lance, a man that works with Ray, said that in exchange for Ray helping him build a shop we could have the camper. It's a pop-up 4 bedroom camper that looks tiny but is actually really spacious. It has a stove, fridge, eatting area, hookup for tv and electric, a showering tent, ac, etc. I think we might take it out for a spin on the 15th check to Citico Creek.
Last night since Ray and Ellie had a dinner party John and the rest of us went to Twisters for dinner and icecream. As we got there and were getting out of the car we heard a shooting and tons of screaming. I said, "John, is that screaming?" He wasn't sure either and I said, "It sounds like a death house over there!" Like in the movies. We didn't think anything more of it and we went in to eat. As we were eatting we saw tons of police cars and ambulance and once we were done we went over to Movie Gallery because they have a police scanner and they said that there was a murder over there!
All the rest of the stuff is pretty self explanatory. We saw Shutter Island at the movies, I just need to vaccum out my car, I got to workout for over an hour instead of just the regular 20 minutes because with Garrett being sick and John being a weenie with no sleep they napped.
