Now Blogging From Australia

Hello everyone! It's been awhile now since the last time I was here. I was just super busy for the last few months due to our moving here in Australia. We finally are all together and the whole family is super happy. We are excited to explore this new country we are in now. So far everything is great and kids are happy and so is hubby and I.

We like to drive to the mountain and check out the beautiful attractions up there. And some places that we had visited has both the mountain and the ocean. It is really nice in here. This coming weekend the whole family is planning to visit the Cherry farm for pick your own fruit. Saturday is there first day of the season to open the farm to the public. We are excited to do our very first cherry picking. We'll take a bunch of photos to share with you guys in here.

Almost There

I am almost done with everything that I need to take care before following hubby. I keep saying to myself few more days or couple more weeks and I am done in here.:) I just wanted to be with hubby so bad and so is the kids. They ask me questions everyday on when we are going to be with their dad. I just keep on telling them very soon.

My son actually think that we are going in a couple weeks. For some reason he thinks that way. He said that next week will be his last week of school because we are going to follow daddy. I am hoping to receive the letter this week and find out when is my oath ceremony and from there we should be able to know when we go. Anyhow, Thanks everyone for visiting me here, I have been so busy lately and sometimes no time to sit in front of my computer. Have a great week ahead guys!

More Time

I am going to have more time to pack up soon. I am resigning from work due to our big move to Australia. I am hoping to get all the packing done before the first week of next month. I can't wait to be with my hubby I miss him so much! The kids wants to go and follow daddy already.

But, I still have one important thing to do before I can go. After the end of this month I should know when to buy our tickets to join hubby in Aussie. I seen a lot of nice stuff that he saw in Australia and I can't wait to see it in person.

SHOULD I GET HULU?

This guest post from Werner Rogers

We got great clear deals and upgraded our internet package. I wanted to upgrade our package because we just got a wireless blu-ray player. If you don’t have one, you must look into getting one. They are awesome! I have ended up watching more television and getting more entertainment by using my internet connection than I do watching cable. Cable is way more expensive to. There are a lot of different internet streaming sites that are available now. The two that I use are Netflix and Amazon Prime. I have heard of people using Hulu Plus too. I haven’t looked into it, but it is suppose to have a ton of great television shows that you can stream. They have all the episodes of all the retro television shows. I like to watch old tv shows, so I may look into getting hulu, but I have been really pleased with the two that I have now. Netflix has a lot of good tv shows. My favorite that I am watching now is the “X-Files”.

Away For Awhile

I was away from my blogs for awhile because of the busy schedule and so much work. We are moving to Australia and I have so much work to do before next month. Hubby is already in Aussie and the kids and I will be joining him next month. Because of my job at school I haven't have much time to be online. Every time I get home from work I have to do some packing and cook for the kids. That is why I was absent here.

I am going to try my best to put some updates here as I can. Once we arrive in Australia I will be sharing photos and things about Australia here in my blog. I am super excited already to go. I just have to get all this packing done.

NEW ACCOUNTS

Author: Joyce Mccall

I logged onto www.DirectStarTV.com and paid my bill before I went to work in this morning. I knew that I wasn’t going to be at the office long, but wanted to care of it while I remembered. I have had the worst time lately remembering things. I don’t know why! Maybe it is my age or possibly my stress level. I have taken on two new big accounts at work. Now, I have noticed that some things in my personal life have gone unattended. For example, I was really tired when I got home from work the other day. It was raining pretty hard. I would usually take my dog for a walk, even if it was raining, but I decided not to. I know that Henry ( my beagle) was disappointed and I felt bad for not walking him. I know that he needs to be walked everyday, but I was tired , stressed, and worrying about one of my new accounts. If my work load and stress level doesn’t get better soon ( I’m hoping its just adjustment), I think that I am going to have to tell my boss that I need someone else to help me with the accounts. I am going to give it another couple of weeks and decide what to do.

Almost Time

Content by Donny Vinson

It’s almost time for the Super Bowl and I’m so happy! I got the best direct tv green bay package I could find back before the season started and though my Packers were having an awesome year I’m not all that upset that they’re not in the big game. I think the best two teams won this year and you know, the only reason I really like to watch the Super Bowl is for the commercials anyway so what’s the big deal. I was already having a party for the game and now that the Pats are in it I’m going to have to make it bigger than ever because two of my best friends are Patriots fans. I love that my whole town is so into football because being from the South it's what I grew up with, too, and it makes me feel like I'm back home when I get to watch the game with my friends. Super Bowl here we come!

My Birthday Girl

I took her to the store the other day so she can show me what she wanted for her birthday. Her she goes right into the computers. And right away she wanted the Kindle Fire!!! I told her that she need to look for something else because mommy can't afford to get her a Kindle Fire, so she said how about the toshiba tablet thrive? I said that is more expensive. So, she walked away from it and doesn't want to look for something else. So, we end up going home lol.

I told her maybe later on we can get her that, but now. Anyway, that's how our going to the store story. I have been asking her to think of something else and she said she can't think of anything yet. Hopefully she will let me know soon.

My Happy Family!

Here is a picture of us during Christmas day. We had a very fun and exciting Christmas. Kids was so happy for all the things they received last Christmas. We don't have much material things, but we are one big happy family!I am so thankful every year and everyday that I have a wonderful husband who always there for me and gave me two beautiful and smart kids. And That is a lifetime present there that you can't buy anywhere:)...

I hope everyone had a great Christmas! Now we are heading to a brand new year!!!

Single Mom

Thanks for the post, Arthur Lawrence

Being a single mom has been challenging to say the least but it’s fun for me to get to make all the decisions for our little family. When I was tired of the New Jersey weather I packed up my little girl and all our stuff and I moved us down here to Florida– how’s that for being able to think on the fly? I found a cute little house only a few miles from the beach and I spent a lot of time looking into Florida adt home security and good babysitters and all that to make this place feel more at home. I love being a mom and my daughter is just the light of my life but it really is a big responsibility working full time and taking care of a child. I don’t know how people do this AND have time to carry on a relationship but I’m thinking about trying online dating as a way to meet some single dads. Who knows, maybe I will!

Not Feeling Good

I don't like this because finally it's Saturday and here I am can't even enjoy it because of my sinus infection. My head is hurting so bad and I just feel like crap today:(... The kids are enjoying watching movies. I have my quiet time right now. I just want to make a quick post in here before we go out for lunch.

I hope that by the end of this day my sinus will get better. Otherwise I'll be like this the whole weekend. I can't wait for the school winter vacation. I am ready to get that break. I have been so tired lately with not much sleep because of my sinus keeps making me up in the middle of the night. Crossing my finger that this medicine will work this time.

We Need A Break!

Last week hubby had colds and now I am the one that is sick. It is so hard because I can't get much sleep that I needed, I have to get up early to take care of everybody. I am just glad that today is Friday that means I can sleep longer tomorrow. This family need some vacation already. Maybe Travel somewhere we can use this two weeks of winter break.

One more week and it's vacation time for the kids and me. Anyway, if you are looking to travel this Christmas visit the link I have here on this post. I know that there are so many people going on a long vacation this month, my family and I just want to see a snow. The kids wish to see a snow every year. So, we are going to see if we can drive on the nearest state that have a snow.

Not Much Sleep

My body is getting use to go to sleep so late, now I am having problem falling asleep early. So, I end up with pimples on my face. Plus my blackheads are driving me crazy I need some Acne medicine. I hate this because it's so hard to get rid off. I need a very strong medication to get rid of this acne.

Anyway, I just hope that I can get rid of this soon! Also I think I need to start going to be early it will help me reduce the appearance off pimples. I need to get ready for a family outing kids and hubby are done dressing up. Have a great weekend everyone!

Another Cold Weekend

Kids woke up so early and start playing very noisy. So, I don't have a choice but to get up. Now, here I am trying to get this blog moving a little. Anyway, we are going to the town center tonight for the lighting of the big Christmas tree out there and after that they have a fireworks display. First we are having a hot cocoa for a very cold morning. But, it should go up to the 70s so, it will be fine later.

So, we don't want to miss that, that is why we want to go their a little bit early today so we can find a parking spot. I know a lot of people are going in there today. Kids are excited about it we watch it every year. Tonight we are going to have some fun out there.

Home is just THAT!

Thanks for the post from Barney Crosby

Our home is just that – ours! My husband and I got married a few months ago and we’ve been looking for a new house since just before the wedding. We finally found the right one at the right price and we moved in about a week ago and now are slowly working on making it ours. I’ve been doing all the girly stuff like painting and making flower arrangements and stuff like that and my new husband (that sounds so weird!) has been doing things like looking into ADT security RichMond and trash pickup – all the things boys should be concerned about. I’m so glad we didn’t go over budget with the wedding so we’re not entering this phase of life totally broke like some of our friends – we’ve got the money we need to keep ourselves afloat and not live paycheck to paycheck. I can’t imagine being like that and I don’t understand why so many people put themselves in that position right in a new marriage, as if the marriage itself isn’t hard enough!

Good Deals

I went to the store this weekend and found so many good deals out there. Like the Christmas decorations both of the craft stores I check out had a 50 to 60%off. So, I bought some but I was a little disappointed, because I did not found one Christmas decor that I was looking for. I am hoping to find it next weekend. I love decorating for Christmas, our Christmas trees are up and I love the way it come out. I will take some picture soon and I am going to post it here so you guys can see it.

It is so nice to find something on sale. There are places online that you can find good deals in your area. You can find chicago deals at yipit.com/chicago. So, if you want to found out what is the good deals near you visit yipit.com today. Soon we are going to find a lot of special deals at the stores for the Black Friday sale. I am sure that there are a lot of people out there who is waiting for the black friday sale.

Get your budget ready for the biggest shopping day of the year. I am not sure if I have any budget to go shopping on that day. But, I will surely drive around and look for something good. The kids are already starting to make their Christmas list, but I don't have any idea what they put on their list yet. I will take a quick look at it this week if I can find it.

Done!

I am done decorating the Christmas trees, now I can relax. I don't have to do that next week. So,now I can start thinking on what to make for Thanksgiving. We already bought the turkey and other stuff. Next weekend we are going to buy the ham. I don't know what to make for dessert yet,so I have to start thinking about it this week.

I just want to make sure I know everything what we are making before the Thanksgiving is here. Kids are so excited about it. I still have few things to do here at home, then I;ll be done with the Christmas decoration.

Shopping For Christmas

My friend asked me if I can join her to go shopping this coming Black Friday. I said I have to see if I have a budget for it. I also told her to visit the upromise black friday for the coupons. You will get additional discount if you have the coupons. Last year I got lazy, so I stayed home and did go for the black friday sale. Now, I am thinking of going with my friend and see if we can find some good deal.


At upromise.com you will also find macy's coupons. So, if you are planning to go shopping this coming black friday visit this website for coupons. They actually have so many different store coupons on their website. If you like to to save and check out those coupons just click the links I have on this post.

Anyway, I am a little tired today we went out for lunch and go to the store to buy more Christmas decorations. I am tired now, but happy because I am done decorating the big tree and the small tree is half way done. Tomorrow I only have few more things to do with the Christmas tree, then I am done. Hopefully I'll get this all done by next week. I need to get this decorating job done, so I can start thinking about what to make for Thanksgiving.

Christmas Tree

The kids are so excited about Christmas, that they even have the Christmas tree out and now it is up with a light. Now, they can't wait to put on the ornaments. I told them to wait because I need to buy some Christmas ribbons first. I am going to pick up some ribbons at the store today so we can get this tree done.

We like our tree up before Thanksgiving come. So, after Thanksgiving we can just sit down and relax. The kids like that idea since we're been doing it for so many years. It is kind our tradition to put up our tree before Thanksgiving. So, I will get that tree up before this weekend end.

Some Entertainment

For people who love to read jokes and more visit yitz grossman at yitzgrossmanlawrence.com. He have plenty of jokes on his website. So, if you feel bored and nothing seems to entertain you check out his website and have some laughs. We all can use some fun time and for me, I go for reading a very funny jokes online. I have some friends who like to do that too.

Anyway, the website of yitz grossman also have something about love and caring. So, if you're interested just visit yitz grossman website on the links I have here on my post. It seems like we are going to be stuck here at home today and tomorrow, because of the cold weather. Now, I am planning to spend sometime on reading yitz grossman jokes. Then, also I have to start putting all those Christmas stuff up. I already have some idea on what color we are going to use for the big tree. I'll let the kids decide how they want to decorate the little tree. Anyhow, I have to get this kids something to eat for breakfast first before I continue blogging.
