When I started this blog it was suppose to be my uncensored space in a sense. I place for me to reflect, ponder, and dissect the issues of my everyday life. I don't and didn't really think many people were reading it. I kind of still wonder if I'm one of the blogs that people glance at and say "nothing interesting here" and move on. I know it's been helpful to me, but I wonder who else it's been helpful too. I wonder how important it is that I put a voice to the going's on of my life on a daily basis.

I don't know if that a good thing.

Just to share a little bit of the backstory before I tell you, my husband and I had a huge financial crisis about 3 years ago. Things have gotten better little by little but it takes grind, especially on his part. He is a great husband and dad so he takes pleasure in providing for his family. This is a great entry point into what I'm about to share with you. As we were approaching the beginning of the school year there were some other expenses approaching as well. My husband and I believe our kids should be involved in extra curricular activities. As they get older we feel they need constructive ways to channel their energy. And they need to get away from the constant lure of the Ipad. This is a big challenge for today's generation and you have to be proactive, especially with your children. Anyway, my daughter wa...
