Progress Report, What's to come, and random ramblings.

Last week I looked up a blog I visit quite often. I had a question and was trying to find an answer and so far I couldn't.  This particular  blogger  was a little bit late on blogging so I thought it would take some time to reveal that "something"  I was looking for. Well I'm sad to announce (mainly to myself) that she has put her blog on private and I wonder if was because of me.
My wife has a blog of our family. If some of you are curious  of my life. It is written  in that blog all the way back until right after we were married  in 2006. It too is private. At one point it was public until my wife's friend found a picture of her daughter  on a website. So back in 2007 my wife went private  and so did most of her friends. what I'm  trying to get at is I get why this particular  blogger  went private I just wonder of it was because  of  me.

So alot of progress has been  happening. If this ship maintans it's current course I may stop ranting  by next year.

1. I (Finally) got a decent raise! I'm  still taking this with a grain of salt until I see the results but what I figure I should get a sizable  paycheck  as soon as next week! This is incredibly  awesome  considering  I haven't  been  making much for the last 2 years.
2. My wife is also doing awesome at her at home business. Yeah the house  is not always  clean and laundry  is not done but when I come home walk into the office (that my wife and I just remodeled over valentine's  day) and she's  has a ton of shipments  going out, its  all worth it.
3. Taxes are done and we were able to pay off a credit card that was charging us around 6.50 a day  in interest. Such a relief. We tried to get them to turn down  the interest but they wouldn't. I've  been noticing a trend with credit card companies lately. It used to be that you would be able to threaten them that you would transfer funds or go to another  credit card company  and they would  return your fees or lower your interes. Now it's  like they have these probability charts they look at and then make a decision. I'm  guessing  they called our bluff thinking we were full if it so we laid  down four acesand paid them completely.

4. I won the most I've  ever won on a lottery ticket. It's  not a life changing amount but it IS the most I have ever won. I think the most I've  won is 25. It's  just nice to finally  have a little  luck. Now if I could just win a jackpot amount.

5. I would of ended on four but five seems to be a more reasonable. The calender is opening up with more activities  and life is just getting  better. Even my relationship with my wife is getting better. We may or may not do something  crazy this weekend  by ourselves. We deserve it. I just don't  know if we will.

Lastly I just wanted to write down a few ideas  on what to write. I may publish this before all my ideas are down but it's  more a reminder to me rather then material for my reader

1. "It goes both ways" I've  read and heard couples complaining that they are not able to have a family right away Infact some of these couples who are trying have waited a couple of years to start trying weather it was to have fun or get a college degree then when they do start trying they find it very difficult to conceive Which leads to heartbreak anger and even marital problems. My argument  is that it goes both ways and even those coupless who do have children  right away weather they planned  them or in my case, not, there is still a real stuggle that they go through and have to dealwith so without going into too much detail I'll leave it at that.
2. I don't  want another kid right now.
my wife wants to be pregnant. I'll  explain  my reasons.
3. Why is it acceptable  to have assistance  while your just starting out in a marrage. I'm  asking not explaining. It doesn't  make sense to me that young couples our using medical and state programs  while some people like me work three jobs to make  sure my family was ok.

I'll leave it at that. Happy Monday everyone!
