Sorry to hear about your husband’s knee and being laid off! So many people are getting laid off these days its ridiculous but at least you were semi-prepared for it.

Your 2 times is 2 more times than I’ve work makeup this whole year. Thank God for my olive complexion!

I know how you feel about the mouth since my dog likes to sneak kisses in and it is so gross! Eww. My cat does the whole walking over me thing at night, too. I guess they think it’s play time or something.

Ohhhh Gossip Girl, I love it. I so can’t wait for the new season! I will have to check out Bones & True Blood!

Well, at least you can say that you’ve been busy as hell!

Hope things pick up for you a little bit, not that all that was negative, but you know, It’s a little hard on you.

Get better soon, Ben! (And you, Anna, with your flu of epic proportions!)

I love True Blood. I just discovered it and I haven’t been able to stop watching. I am so excited for season 2 this Sunday.

8 bananas in 2 days. Wow!! That’s impressive.

Gossip Girl and True Blood are fabulous! I totally vote catching up on them instead of blogging. I cannot wait for their new seasons!

I’m very sorry to hear about Ben’s most recent troubles. I hope he gets better and finds something else that works out.

btw, just to provide some more information for those considering meniscal surgery. My surgery went fine. And the recovery is going fine. Last time, I only had one minor tear, so the recovery was the best case. This time, there was a more sever tear, plus a minor tear, plus an incidental finding of trauma (they described it as a divot) to the cartilage. All of those 3 things (vs the 1 last time) are what are making the recovery just a tad bit slower than last time. However, I am happy to report that today, I am hobbling (still would call it hobbling) around w/o the crutch at home, and to be fair, it’s only been 18 days since my surgery (5/22). I was fortunate to have access to an excellent surgeon, team, and facility.

I think I’m well on my way to a full recovery. I believe last time, it was still 1.5 months (45 days), so, technically, I”m less than halfway to that mark. If anything, I’m acting overconfident (see also: leafblowing last weekend in the backyard). But, in any event, the knee surgery recovery is going very well, and if anyone suffers some damage to their meniscus, I would highly encourage they consider arthoscopic surgery when it is warranted

Hi Miss! I completely agree with eating in. When Sean was outsourced and it took him 114 days to find a good replacement position (not that I was counting), I did what I do best.. google useless info on saving! And food is the largest flexible expense a family has each month, so we immediatley went to eating in. Not only are we now eating better but we reduced our food costs dramatically. I take homemade soup for lunch (er… “homemade” being my putting several canned items into a bowl of broth) under a buck a day. Sean eats his lunch out but he spends $2.14 on 2 items off the dollar menu. Then we shop at a farmers market for produce for cheaper (do you have a Sprouts?? I know they’re opening one in CA but not sure what area). Also a lot of local farms sell fresh-from-their-crops produce for CHEAP too, so we have done that. Who knew?! Not this gal from Los Angeles! LOL. We have a really bad berry addiction but that adds up and usually spoils, so we buy frozen. Also, if we do stuff like pasta, I store extra sauce in a tupperware for the next dinner (since we don’t use a full jar each time but never have quiiite enough to do two meals in one jar) and mix it with the next. I know, we sound ghetto, but I swear it’s not bad! And then we use places that are lower cost for vet stuff that is pretty basic, like vaccines, heartworm meds, etc (vaccine clinics, check out Petco’s website). You can even ask vets to write you a prescription for some things that are sold at a humane pharmacy (like we bought Bailey’s antibiotics for $4 at Walmart). Hrm, what else? OH! Heartguard is great, but you can also buy the “generic” form of it called WormSheild for a bit cheaper!

This entry is awesome. I love how you found a number for everything. Haha. Sorry to hear about Ben being laid off. And I never wear makeup. I’m the natural type. Plus I save money not using it.
