Had to
turn on the air. When the thermostat says 88, I think it is time!
I hate to turn it on if I don't have to, every time it kicks on I hear my money being sucked from my bank account! At least it isn't as expensive as heat.
Stay cool!

Research
Sometimes I take part in surveys for a market research company. I love it! It is usuallya few hours of my time, but they pay really well. I wish they would call more! They usually call once a year. But it does bother me that companies go through so much time, effort and money to get us to buy stuff. I guess that is why they do so well in the end though.
I know when we were thinking of flier ideas and logo designs Josh was very worried about what "people" would think. I am not all about what people think!

?!Insurance!?
I am not sure how you all feel about insurance (car, life, renters or homeowners, health insurance and even business insurance), but I think it was a good thing gone bad!
Everyday all of us are just trying to live life to its fullest and some of us are just trying to make ends meet or pull ahead a little bit. Right now we carry 4 different insurances, and as you can imaging, the cost of these is a lot of money. If we didn't have all these bills to pay, just think of the savings our kids could have for college or the nice vacation we could have or a down payment for our own home. It is bad enough other bills are so high, you know things like necessities. I don't know how anybody gets ahead in this world.
their rates will go up etc?? I am getting to my boiling point real quick here. And then On top of the high costs, what about when we do make a claim or rates go even higher. Isn't it the most ridiculous thing when you hear about people not claiming things on insurance because insurance companies give you the run around on getting your vehicle fixed or getting the money you rightfully deserve. It just makes me so angry. One day I will be one of those people who has a large savings account,just in case I get into that car accident, that way I don't have to pay high monthly premiums for motor insurance.
Josh and I have lived without health insurance for 3+ years now. Our kids are covered by the county, but we were right under the guidelines. We pay for the office visits we really need, and just pray God will keep an eye on us. The 2 major accidents Josh has had (one he was in the hospital for over a month) we never saw a bill for! god took care of us and the system was just in that case!
Here a re few articles you may find interesting!
Is inflation a necessary evil?
Speeding won't increase premiums

Memorial Day weekend
We had a pretty nice long weekend! I was a little sad because we tried to get a camping trip together, but it didn't work out. And since the Brucks, are far far away, there are no kids to keep our kid entertained=( So I am not sure if we will get to do any big camping trips this summer or not, but we will try.
Friday night we had a girls poker night at Kelly's, lots of fun! Complete with spinach dip, peanut M&M's, Mitchells ice cream, Klondike bars and cheesy garlic biscuits...not to mention some yummy "girly drinks"!
Saturday I had to go grocery shopping with both kids=( and then after Josh did a small job he came home to fix my Jeep (front brakes..we just did the back ones a month ago, ujoints, new battery connections, my Jeep has been deciding not to start at random locations, so we hope this was the problem and rotors)! It sounds great and I feel much safer!
Sunday we went to church, took naps and took the kids to see Shrek 3 and then went out to eat.
Monday Josh finished building (actually fixing the broken one) Ethan's barn. He loves it!! and then we went to Josh's parents for a cookout and a swim in the big pool! Josh and I watched DEJAVU.
With lots of laughs and some color to my body, I would say it was a great weekend!
