In light of recent developments we now have a new goal; it's called "
come up with enough money to pay for adoption".
I'm just going to say it, saving sucks! Obviously it's a necessity, or at least it should be, but trying to cut out a couple hundred $$ from our monthly budget is MUCH easier said than done. So I've tried to approach the problem from the opposite end as well and come up with ways that I can start financially contributing again.
The quickest way to come up with $$ would be for me to go back to work, but let's be honest, it would kill me to leave our little boy and I haven't been up and ready by 8 am for two years now. Yes, being a stay-at-home mom is a ton of work with no pay, but it's awesome and I'm not willing to give that up!
So since that isn't a real option, I've started thinking outside the box. I tend a little girl two days a week and I tutor math more these days (so hey, if you know anyone who needs math help, send them my way!!). The last couple weeks I've also embarked on a new project, one that I find very exciting, and one that will hopefully bring a little bit of $$. What is this new venture, you might ask? I'll give you a hint:
And three words: Zesty Orange Peel
Hopefully everything will be up and running by the end of the month!
Wish me luck!
Happy Photographing!
