oil leak, check, carseats, check, tune up, check

so for those of you that remember my car got crunched a few weeks back...hallalujia they did NOT total my car
even better they sent us the check for the repair so we could decide what to do with itso instead of getting the body work done (because it doesn't really look THAT bad) we got the oil leak worked on again (didn't completely solve the problem but helped a TON)
since the carseats were in the car the insurance co was required to replace them, instead of replacing them w/ the same seats, since i was going to be upgrading the seats soon, i just got what i wanted and paid the difference, so instead of almost $400 for carseats i only had to pay $117!!! (which also came out of the body repair check) and tomorrow the car goes in for a tune up, get the broken light fixed from the accident, have safety and emissions done so we can get the tags renewed, we were able to pay for #2's cast, AND get caught up on rent!!!
so hubby was right, it WAS a blessing in disguise!!!

mia again

so i'm in this fertility study, can't remember if i've talked about it here or not
and OF COURSE hubby has to leave for work when i rank a 3 on the fertility monitor
so if i DO get preggie this month it will probably be a girl, which is fine, because despite the fact
that I want a boy (actually a set of twin boys) my main priority is that i have a healthy baby
so if i can get preg w/ a healthy baby this month i will be on cloud 9!
which takes acting out of the mix for me all of next year, BUT not directing...i'm leaning
twds taking a show that auditions in november and opens in jan...i want to read it before i
commit to it though to see if i feel like it's up my ally or not
oh, i'm also so freaking tempted to go and buy up a bunch of $ store preggie test
and start taking them next monday, actually i'd love to take it now, but i know it wouldn't
show up yet LOL
if i don't get preggie this month i'll actually be disappointed because this is the first
time that we've actually been activly trying w/ timing and all that good stuff...oh how a
fertility monitor provided via the study helps with that!!!
although if i don't get preg i'm calling SkyWest on the fact that they have it out
for me getting preggers
LOL!!!

PLEASE DO NOT TOTAL MY CAR

so last week we were out and about, hubby had to take #1 to the car for a time out because her behavior was rediculous
well, while they were sitting in a parked, turned off car for time out the guy parked to the drivers side of them pulled out and took out the front panel of the drivers side of the car!!!
he stopped as once he started to drag our car because it was kinda locked w/ his (tires wells) he realized what he was doing (he was in a new dodge ram i think hubby said) swapped insurance info and such...did estimate for work yesterday for his insurance co to fix the car
HOLY FREAKING COW!!!
the estimate to fix the car is $1355.50 the car at kbb.com good condition is worth just over $1500...oh how i hope they are not going to total our car, we can not afford to buy another car, the car is perfectly drivable...oh, and they'll replace our carseats, which i'm still trying to decide if i want to do or not because i was going to be getting new seats w/in the next 6 months, but nicer more expensive seats, so this would go twd that, but i don't think i can afford the balance of the new carseats...oh this is such a pitb!!!

So I've been MIA as of late

So the business finally opened on the 1st of October and we've had 1 sale so far...and hey, 1 is better than nothing right, even if it did come from my sister LOL
http://www.kingscrossgreetingcards.com/ is the link if you want to check it out
It's kinda crazy having 20,000 cards and 21,000 envelopes just laying about the house...if we sold them all, especially at individual prices instead of box set prices, we'd be able to pay off our loan much faster than not...of course we won't do that because we have to replace stock, increase designs, eventually we might get a cut
after i have to admit that a "company car" with our logo on it would be a nice thing to have
i expect big things to happen, but i also know that big things take time
