Tuesday List

Ok, it's actually Wednesday morning, but I kind of wanted to do this post because I thought it was cool! My sister had a list a few weeks ago, her grocery list! Luckily for me, I do not have many picky eaters over here, especially not Jason, but the kids are somewhat picky. They are kids, what do you expect? So, here is our basic grocery list when the kids spend the weekend with us!

-Two gallons of milk
-Cereal (mainly just for me, so it's usually raisin bran or something)
-Apple Juice
-Capri-Sun
-Cokes
-Two loaves of bread
-Sandwich meat
-Sliced cheese
-Shredded Cheese
-Two packages of fresh, not frozen, chicken breasts
-One-Two pounds of hamburger meat
-Bananas for the monkey Sophia
-Apples
-Grapes
-Other fruit, just depends what's on sale
-Dog Food
-Some sort of sweet something
-Cooking oil, they love fresh friend potatoes!
-Canned veggies
-Frozen veggies
-Fresh lettuce, broccoli
-Chocolate syrup, when I think about it
-Chips
-Mayo
-Flour, sugar for pancakes, if we are in the mood
-Frozen dinners for lunch time at work
-Coffee

That's about it! Obviously, these are the usual things, but it changes, depending on what I make for dinner. AND I just got Kaye's strawberry cake recipe! Yippee! I am sure that will start to be a regular staple at our house.

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best.   So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System.     This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This syst...

Why I am Pro Universal Healthcare and Changes to Our Healthcare System

Due to my recent proactivity with my credit and paying off debt, I decided to give the hospital a call where I was admitted about a month ago and ask about my bill. I wanted to make sure I didn't miss it in the mail and I wanted to get an idea of what I'd be paying for my stay. I get on the phone with the billing department and the woman is just as nice as can be, really. She was surprised I'd even called her, considering I didn't even have a bill yet. She told me she'd sent the bill over to my insurance to be approved and paid but they hadn't heard back yet. "Just out of curiosity," I asked, knowing I would be responsible for 20% of the final bill, "how much was it?" What I heard next shocked me.   "$61,000" she said.   I said, "$61,000? I was only in the hospital for a night and only on anti-biotics, you can't be serious! My daughter cost me less than a third of that to give birth to and I was in the hospital two nights!...

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this!  I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...
