Life Insurance

Speaking of insurance, we have been getting some information in the mail about life insurance rates. I laugh at these crazy things. I imagine that some people really do fall for some of that sort of junk in their mailboxes though. My father-in-law is our insurance agent and I trust him to do what is best for us. He isn't one to sell insurance just to meet a quota or line his own pockets. I am sure there aren't too many out there like him!

Health Woes

Well the way we have been going the last 3 weeks I may have to get some insurance quotes. In that time frame, 3 of the kids have been to the doctor with 2 of them being twice! And that isn't all. I have one that will be going through some additional testing this week. And that isn't all! I have another that is currently running a fever. I think she also has a corneal abrasion which will entail a visit to the ophthalmologist. I think we will meet our family deductible by the end of the week. And we weren't even close to meeting it 3 weeks ago. Nice. I hope this is not a foretelling of how the rest of the year will be!

Kitchen

Okay, I am tired of the lack of light in my kitchen. Actually, my kitchen is plenty light with 2 large south facing windows. However, my work areas are situated so my back is always to the windows. That makes for some dark work areas! I wish that I had projector headlights installed above my work areas so I can see. I also wish that someone would gift me with enough money to completely revamp my kitchen. I want to put in a nice big work area and more cabinets and lots more lighting. I want to move my sink so that it is under the windows so that doing dishes is more interesting. I want a lot of things don't I!
