it's friday!!!..............................................

Looking forward to the weekend. Not to much going on really, just ready for a small break from the week! Some sad news came yesterday, one of the couples I do daycare for has lost her job! The company has totally closed down, they are no more. Nancy thought she had until October, went in yesterday and found out the company is worse off than anyone knew. They are done. Wow, as for me that SUCKS! Since last year October things have been so crazy, we made it through some really tight times, financially. Our family had to do some big time adjusting. It was depressing! Thank goodness for our faith in God and finding the new church. We did make it through and all was for the best in so many ways! It actually had turned out be a blessing. I think this time around we are armed and ready to go! As one on my favorite songs say "His grace is seeing me through!" So, I need to get my "national" part of my test passed and get my rear in gear. I know God has a plan for me and I am giving it all up to him! Jeremiah 29:11-13.

For today, I am doing my menu plan for next week and getting a grocery list together. We are going to have to buckle up on the grocery budget. I have some strawberries in the fridge and I am going to make some strawberry bread. A recipe I seen on one of the blogs I follow. I will let you know how it turns out!

Later, I am going to clean our bedroom closet out and ORGANIZE! Not really sure what we are having for dinner tonight. I will start Weight Watchers tomorrow so I want to make it a "lite" day! LOL!

Sorry about you losing one of your daycare kiddos. I watch only teachers kids and mine start back in 2 weeks (boo-hoo). Last year was a horrible year for me I lost 5 kids due to the economy....parents just don't want to pay for daycare, I think they are finding every means possible to have family watch their kids for free. I am trying to find some new kids for this year.

This is a bad time for my family financially, hearing that you went through it also gives me hope that maybe our tough time will come to an end soon. I am hoping. Good luck with WW tomorrow.
