We don't have a thing!

I swear office supplies in our house are pretty scarce.

When Shawna was working she always used to bring nice pens home since she did some work from home. We had collected quite the number of pharmaceutical pens.

However, just the other day I realized that we didn't have *any* pens at all! So for the first time in about 10 years we had to go out and buy a few packs.

I can't wait til we get to go school shopping with the kids. FUN FUN FUN.

Flab.

Well, at least I've been able to get back to my 150 pound mark. I was exceeding my limits for a while there and I contributed it to extensive maternity leave and the fact that we were eating way too much and too often!

Of course, I might be interested in reading weight loss pill reviews if I want to start on a fat pill any time soon!

*gulp*

Our friend, L, mentioned the other day that she was down $30,000 for the year. Now that's a lot of money! Right now I have a pretty large amount of money in savings and I've been looking at ways to invest.

I've thought about futures trading but I'm not sure I want to take the risk right now.

At this point I have some ability to go risky and I know I should just take the plunge in order to diversify my portfolio.

Nice.

When we were in New York I tinkered around with all of my dad's cameras. He has the Leica, Canon, Nikon D90, Samsung, and Olympus digital SLRs.

It was a lot of fun but somewhat overwhelming because there were tons of settings and it reminded me how much I love my Canon Powershot point and shoot!
