Tackle It Tuesday

Beloved and I are Tackling our budget and finical life.
As I have mentioned before we are studying Dave Ramsey.
This is a life changing effort to change the way we view our money in efforts to become TOTALLY debt free one day.
It is also addressing the "fat" of life all around ad inspired Beloved to go for a run last night, witch inspired me to awaken at 5:30 and walk Willy twice around the block.
Beloved is reading this book aloud to me while I bead in the evenings (after he reads the children to bed).
It is so wonderful to be on the same page together.
If our home does not sell we are still going to keep our goals of becoming debt free.
It will be a lot of hard work but the goal...The goal of owing no man except to love him is so deeply desired by both of us.
I am so blessed that he and I see eye to eye on this.
We only have our mortgage. In that we are very blessed. We have always used credit carefully and sparingly. We are going to do this study together and see if we can stay here. If... we can make a way.
I may get employment in the fall while the kids are in school. This will have a twofold effect for I have not enough employment hours to get Medicare when I am of age. I think I will be doing some type of elder care. Companionship type service. I think I would excel at it.
My task to prepare to go into the job market.
My resume will need updating. I have not worked outside the home for 10 + years now.
I will need to inventory the estate to see what needs to be accomplished
I need to do the Master Address list updating.

I got this cookbook at the library.
Dove is off now to go read it in her room.
I made a dish last night from it.

Little Dove has sensory integration dysfunction and has NEVER liked soft foods. She gagged on them badly as an infant. It took many , many months to get her able to get her to swallow soft foods.
Now with braces she is forced into a soft foods diet. Poor thing is really challenged.
I told her to look through the book and see if there is anything she might like me to make for her.
My task...to help her get a diet of soft foods that she likes and will tolerate.
Her order...Vanilla milk shake and lemon pudding (funny I have some lemon pudding mix for tofu).
