What a whirl-wind week!

Wow. What a whirl-wind week! Yesterday was a not-so-great day, but today was wonderful.

First the not-so-good: Wednesday I was on my way to Foy's with a few friends and was in a car accident on St Rt 35. The traffic was horrible and stopped suddenly. I stopped in time, but the car behind me did not, rear-ending me and pushing me into the car in front of me. Everyone was relatively OK, and it could have been much worse, but my car is undriveable and had to be towed. So now, for the time being, we will be a one car family. Now we have the waiting game as the insurance companies play the reimbursement game.

Tonight, we had our weekly meeting with our coaches; Jayme, Andrea, and Kim (can I just tell you how much I love them?!) and they gave us our goals. I am so confident that we will be able to reach and surpass our goals. It will be a change in our spending habits, but I know we can do it! We have been doing a good job on keeping up with our spending journal and it has already opened our eyes to our spending habits. We have also already implemented some saving "guidelines" that saved us $16 this past week. Every little bit helps us get closer to our dream of finally having a family!

And I have also promised Dave that I would not buy any shoes (unless I truely needed them, by his standards) until the race is over. Now that's a sacrifice!!
