Keeping it Thrifty
February 17, 2012As I mentioned yesterday, Chris lost his job last week. I would be lying if I said it was a surprise, because it's not. The company that he worked for (and was warned about before working there) is totally falling apart. It's one of those start ups that's doomed to fail for lack of good management.
While it sucks that Chris is out of work, we're feeling very peaceful about our situation. Chris can now spend all of his time working on developing my calligraphy site and I can spend more time catching up on life, design and the kiddos. I haven't had a whole lot of time to finish up the tutorials and projects I've had in the works, and I'm going to blame that on the weather and something that's going on in my ears. I haven't been able to go without a 3 hour nap (kids jumping on me or no) any day this week. Hopefully I'll be feeling better soon.
We've done the super cheap thing before and I'm prepared for us to do it again. I'm just so grateful for all of the support we have had from family, friends and all of you. Thank you!
With our current budget, we're still throwing Felix a little birthday party this weekend (really? how is he already ONE!?). I'll be keeping it low-key, but making a few fun little decorations for the festivities. I can't wait to share with you his big milestone.
I hope you all have a fantastic weekend!
