Web Cam

Big news! I bought a web cam! They are actually pretty cheap. I go mine for only $16 at Best Buy with a $10 gift card I had. If you have a web cam or decide to run out and get one cause of this amazing post I'm on skype.com look me up. My skype user name is bellahkins.

Playing w/ my camera

It's the most fun having a computer that I can upload pics on!

Here are some from the last few days....

Canon, he's not fat, he's just fluffy!

My baby Moshe! I love this little person more then I ever thought I could. He pointed to me & said "Hedder" Thursday night. It was plane as can be & with absolutely no prompting from me or his mom! I'm telling you the kid is a genius. He gets that from me!

Ginormous chair at work on Hawaiian day! Yes we do work....sometimes. :)

EPIPHANY

I HAVE ASKED MYSELF MY ENTIRE LIFE:

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I HAVE AN ANSWER....

THERE NEVER WAS ANYTHING WRONG WITH ME!

13 BOOKS!

I found this great place that sales used books here in Logan.

It's called Jenson BooksYou go in and they give you a grocery bag. You brouse & fill up your bag. Then...here's the best part: They only charge you $7.00 for all the books you've been able to fit into the bag! I heard about them on the radio & mentioned as much so I got an extra $1 off. Can you believe it! I got these 13 books for $6.38! The place isn't flashy or well organized but for book fanatics like me it's a little peice of heaven. I'm telling you. You've gotta scope this place out.

27 weeks

Can you believe the berries have existed for 27 weeks? Em said we're hoping for at least a 35 week gestation. So that means as few ans 8 weeks to go!

Em's baby shower that I'm giving her is on Sept. 11th, 2010! I can't wait. I have the food and decorations planed but I need help with games. I would like to have 2 games to play. Any ideas?

New

I finally did it....

I bought a new computer! I'm so excited. Now I can watch movies and upload all my fabulous pics. I've been saving for a while for a computer at Sam's Club but when I went in they had sold out of the discounted one I was saving for. I decided to scope out Best Buy and got this computer for a deal I feel just great about. It's a "eMachine" which I know nothing about but as I'm not supper tech savvy it seems to be serving me just fine. Yippee!

Getting things done!

Here is a short update: (Mostly for Chris)

I'm getting some of the things on my "To Do List" checked off!

• I've been renting a storage unit for $25 a month which isn't too spendy. Trouble is I've been paying this for the last 5 1/2 years for stuff that I don't really need. Obviously! I haven't needed it in 5 1/2 years! Yesterday I finally got completely emptied it out. I'm sad that I've wasted $1650.00 on this stuff purely for sentimental reasons and laziness but no more!
  You might be wondering where I took all my stuff. I tried to take it to Deseret Industries but they were closed for the Mormon holiday yesterday. I left it by the unloading area and as I was leaving a security guard drove up to me and told me to go take my stuff back! Are you serious! It's DI! Apparently DI doesn't take donations! Anyway, I ended up taking my stuff to a fabulous local thrift store called "Gammies." It's located at 521 N Main here in Logan, phone number 435-755-2198. The lady was so thankful for all the stuff I brought. I ended up buying 4 shirts & 2 overalls for Mo and the lady wanted to give them to me for free. I insisted that I pay for them so she gave them to me for the unbeatable price of $2.13! If you're looking for a thrift store in Cache Valley definitely support "Gammies!"
• The next thing on my list was to call the companies I pay $ to each month and ask for better deals. The beauty part of working for loyalty at Qwest is I know what to say to get a deal. I called Comcast and they knocked $20 off my bill each month for the next year! Yippee! You may wonder why I don't have Qwest internet since I work for them. We don't offer internet in North Logan...yet....
• With the help of my darling cousin Em I figured out that I have $250.00 each month that I have no idea what happens to it. I know, ridiculous! I set up direct deposit for this $ to go into my saving rather then to me. I'll get to England or on my cruise in no time at that rate.
  
• Lastly I got on the year long waiting list with "Hanbury Manor." Hanbury Manor is an apartment complex that offers affordable rent for low income people. The waiting list for the 1 bedrooms really is a year, but I'll wait. I toured the apartments and they are so darling. I can even have pets! Plus there are washer & dryer hook ups! Good thing I have a year to save for such a purchase. :)
• Lastly, I can't believe that everything I own fits into my studio apartment minus the Geo of course! It's refreshing to not have so much baggage weighing me down.
