      My boy is back for a visit. T arrived with his cousin this afternoon and will be staying here for a week visiting us for his birthday.  We had pizza for dinner and that cost a fortune. Since when did you have to spend a hundred dollars to feed your family?  Granted I've got 2 extra people to feed for the next week but it was still cheaper than going to Olive Garden where I was planning on taking him.
    Work tomorrow and the time is creeping up on me. Wish the time home out weighed the time spent in the workplace. Maybe then working would seem more worthwhile.
    My taxes finally went through. Glad and relieved and already paying bills off. I'm so grateful that we will be able to take our vacation and really need to start planning that. J is getting excited to be going somewhere new and I'm excited to be going somewhere new.   The fam is going to Mesa Verda this year which is a bummer because I really like it there, but I really can't afford two trips. We can go camping with TA and her family because they own the land so we wouldn't have to pay for camping and it would be shared food so less expensive there too. We will have to go camping with them so that we can do both this year. I would also like to go camping with our kids sometime. Maybe when N gets home if it's still warm we can all go camping as a family.(Not that half the kids talk but we can do our best)
