Challange update

Well, we made it through the first shrunken paycheck, with $0.33 left over!! LOL Bob "forgot" and went for snacks last night, to treat his guys for having to stay late at work. It *just* worked out.

Ella is doing pretty good about using the toilet now. The first couple of days she missed nearly every time, but she has shown great improvement.

I feel like a bad Mama for not writing about Riah on his birthday. Sigh. We all know I love him.

Not much to say; just incubating.

Incubate away. We all know it takes lots of incubating to produce those lovely children of yours! ☺ Well done on meeting your challenge!

Good job on meeting the challenge.

I do wonder (and I assume you've thought about this) how that amount will relate to life in the U.S., and if it's even close. So many bills will be different... Just a thought.

Wil,
The price difference has been in the back of my mind, but we haven't tried to analyze it at this point. Some things which I think are more expensive in the States can be done without (like cell phones), and other things will be cheaper (like store-brand food, which we can't get here), and we'll probably drive more on a daily basis, but gas will be lower... One could go on forever. :-)

I hope that I can make some money doing somting but this is just to see how tight we might have to make our buget. Thanks for the thought though Wil, I'm sure as the time gets closer we will be putting deeper thought into it. ☺
