Let's see...
September recap:

- Went to my first Charger game with Josh on Sept. 4th. (Official date #8)
- My baby turned 8 months old and started cruising around furniture.
- My 2 year old learned how to ride a bike with training wheels.
- Spent waaaay too much money and managed to leave $0.21 in my checking account til payday on the 1st. A used double jogging stroller put me over the edge!

- Visited with family I haven't seen in awhile.
- Lowered my cell phone minutes and cut out the internet to save $50 a month!

October goals/things to do:
- Set a budget for myself.

I just found you through SITS. You have my utmost respect. At 35 years old, I found myself divorced and starting over, but I had no children and a good-paying job. Often I would stop and think, in the stress of it all, how lucky I was. But now, 39 and childless, I have some regrets. It took some time, but I'm in a good relationship and my life is coming around again. Things feel better than ever.
Those are some big goals for October! And wait...cut out internet?! Please don't say! That would be like selling the car to me!
Great list and a perfect season to start anew! Coming through from SITS:-).
Yes, the internet. I'm already dying without it on my phone, but what I didn't mention was that the screen on my phone keeps cutting out. So I also have to buy a new phone soon. I'm sure once I have a new phone the internet will come back. It's only $15 more... I think I can handle that. ;)
Stephanie - I sometimes wonder what my life would have been like if I never had my boys, but still went through what I did. Despite how much harder it makes things I'm so happy to have them with me. They're a constant joy in my life and I can honestly say that something (well, 2 somethings) good can from our marriage. I'm so happy to hear that you're in a good relationship now and things are going great for you. :)
