Weekend Progress... for a change

So, since I got back to life (from vacation), it's just hectic. Work has been busy and life, well, life is stressful. Hubby promises me that this are the difficult years. That once the kids are bigger and out of daycare/aftercare, it gets easier. But my dilemma is this... how can I even think to rush this time, to get to a better financial position, when this are the best years with the kids. I cannot get this time of youth and innocence back. In a few years, my son won't want to hang out and do arts and crafts with mom. I won't be my princess' best friend forever. There are so many things that I want to do with and for the kids NOW. Unfortunately, I have to now weed out the pricier things. It might sound materialistic, but in the real world, it costs money to do just about anything... especially with kids. So be it though. I'll just think outside the box and find more creative ways to keep them smiling.

One of THOSE weeks

so I started to write earlier this week, just no time. Hubby sick all week and the little one is having a bad week as well. Hopefully I can play catch up this week and get ahead... okay, at least catch up - don't want to sound overly optimistic. I'll get back to you!
