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.

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!...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...

That "Thing" in That Basket Isn't a Baby, You Know That, Right?

I have had the most horrible case of writer's block lately! With that said, I saw this article on Babycenter and I just had to write something about it.   So, we've heard of the trend of eating the placenta after birth . We've heard of the trend of putting them in pill form to get the nutrients . But this? This to me, is just the craziest of them all.   As a group of beings on this planet, I've never seen any other mammal who evolves to get to a certain place, then de-evolves on purpose, to be more "natural." I am sure I am seriously about to put my foot in my mouth, I am sure there are (some) people out there that I might offend with my "closed-mindedness" on this topic. But this is just, well, ridiculous to me.   Basically, after the placenta comes out, instead of cutting the cord and detaching it from the baby, you leave the placenta on, they salt it to help with the decomp process, add rosemary (I am guessing for the smell?), then p...
