Another underwhelming blog....

So now that I had my Asus eee pc for a little while I have had time to decide how well I like it.  A few things to keep in mind are that I am a stay at home mom and I mostly surf the web, read email, and watch videos. The time I do get to spend on the computer happens all over the place, kitchen table, living couch, floor, cooking, etc. Notice I
didn't mention sitting comfortably at a desk for extended lengths of
time. Keeping all these things in mind, I must say that I love my new
computer! It really fits my lifestyle well.

It's not often that you trade cars and reduce debt, but that's exactly what Liz and I did today. We've had our Subaru payed off for a few years now, but owed about $7k on our Nissan. As I'm only working out of the house 2 days a week now we'd toyed with the idea of dropping down to a single car for a few months. During that time we've tracked how often both cars were in use at the same time and it wasn't much at all. We kinda wanted a Honda Element or some other similar SUV, but all of those would have increased our monthly expenditures. Rick and Charla got a minivan last week, which I didn't think much of until I heard how much they paid for it. They payed way less than an SUV would cost, and there is a ton of room inside. So we decided to keep our eyes open for one that fit our budget.

We had another great weekend!  Margaret is getting so big and starting to really be a lot of fun.  This week she started blowing bubbles! Its great makes a huge mess and she loves it.  She also started riding in her car that my dad got for her a few months ago.  The love to go fast, fast, fast! And also started rolling over from her stomach to back more regular.  So that is what all is new with us...
