Online Earnings

This month I requested payouts from the sites I told you about earlier. I did recieve a check for $40.32 and a paypal deposit of $25! For what? Just for reading emails and doing the occasional survey :)

New Week - New Day

Things have been busy at our house lately. Ava started walking! And I haven't been able to sit down! :) Since coming home from Michigan it's taken me some time to get back to myself. I'm not 100% there yet but getting closer. We are HOPEFULLY moving into our house with in the week. We were told August 1st (But, we were also told July 1st - so fingers crossed) I don't plan to post any in depth recipes this week. I'll wait until I get into my new kitchen with lots of space and a full pantry at my disposal! I don't have much space in our apartment right now. I will post a few from the past (missing pictures) of dinners I made but never made it to the blog. They were some of our favorites. Hope you enjoy :)

Time Off - To Say Goodbye

Obviously I haven't posted anything in over a month. And, with good reason.
On May 23rd my little brother passed away. He had a heart attack and didn't survive it. My family and I travelled back to Michigan for two weeks to help my Mom and deal with funeral arrangements. I've been thinking about this post for a while, and what I wanted to say. It's been about 6 weeks. I hadn't seen my brother in 5 months. We didn't see each other every day and then we moved to North Dakota. I have days where I don't have time to slow down to think about this and then there are days I can barely hold it together. Today is one of those days. I don't have any other choice but to push through. I have a baby to take care of. Not sure how I would be handling it if she wasn't there to pull me through. I don't have much to say that I didn't say at his funeral. It's still not entirely real to me. Possibly because I'm over 1000 miles away from home and not there to see that he's not there either. Doesn't make the hurt go away though.
