To move, or not to move that is the question.

As many know from past post we live in a Townhouse we bought almost 7 years ago. This was before we thought we would have a monkey born a year later. lol! It's a 2 bedroom 2 1/2 baths. The monkeys share a room which wasn't so bad before but now that Monkey goes to school Princess keeps him up. not okay! We don't want to sell because we won't even get enough to pay off what we owe. So we were thinking of renting it out and we'll rent a bigger house. BUT we have to fix a lot of little things in the house. We have to paint and I don't wan to fix the house and then give it to someone else to live in. Know what I mean. We have also thought about making our 2 bedroom into a 3 bedroom. When we bought this place you could have the option of either one, but since we weren't planning on staying here long we didn't go for it. I'm not sure how much it will cost, the kids bathroom need to be redone and the tub needs to be moved and plumbing changed, which is not cheap. We only want to stay in South Florida until hubs is done with his obligation (about2-3 yrs)from work because they paid for his Master, which he'll Graduate from next month. Also a big big thing is I LOVE Monkeys school, so does he. Seriously I have no idea what to do. I sometimes hate to be an adult and make responsible decisions. Another plus is if we stay here we can save money which is something we haven't been able to do because we have been paying off debt. I need a backyard for the kids, we need more room to move around. aggh! who wants to buy us a house. PLEASE! LOL! Sometimes I wish I played the lottery. I only want $300k, I would give the rest away. seriously!

Bathrooms

I hate cleaning bathrooms. When we bought our Townhouse I hated that we had more toilets than bedrooms. Until recently I would complain. We went to NY for Christmas and New Years. We stayed with family the whole time. With 2 of of my aunts actually. One which lives in a 1 bedroom apartment that the living room was turned into a second bedroom. Our entire family was great, let me just get that out. I am not complaining! My aunt gave us her bedroom and the 4 of us slept there. That first night we waited in line to use the bathroom. lol! There was 9 of us in this apartment, yes NINE with only one bathroom. We were there for about 4 days, then we stayed with my other aunt who has the a Townhouse. We definitely had more room to move around but again only ONE bathroom for 9 people. When we got home I was never so happy to not have to share a bathroom with ANYONE. How about you? How do you feel about just having one bathroom or multiple?

Scariest Day of my life

Lets start from the beginning. Jose and I both bought some Groupon deals for Barnes and Noble, $10 for $20. Awesome deal!!! We decided we were going to get the kids some Dr. Seuss books. We chose to go on Tuesday night. Jose came home early which is very out of the ordinary but if you know Jose he would live in a Barnes and Noble if it were possible. lol! We had dinner and off we went. We get a spot pretty close to the store. BTW our Barnes and Noble is ALWAYS packed. Jose unbuckles Anthony and I get Gaby and she fuckin takes off running. Jose and I yelled and then I see an SUV coming right at her. I run towards her just in time. The SUV must have heard me scream because it stop just centimeters from us. I bring her back to my car, I calmly tell her not to run on the street EVER again. I fuckin lose it after that. I started shaking and crying. Even now I can't fathom if things had been different. I start hyperventilating. NOT GOOD! My anxiety level has gone up a lot. I fear everything, ever since the plane incident. I have to go. I'm taking Gaby to the Nature Park.

Not enough time

I always want to blog but I just can't seem to have the time. With Anthony in school, I thought things would get easier but no, just more things pop up. We are getting ready to go away for our Winter Break, to NYC. I'm so excited. I miss NY and my family, of course. I also love NY around X-Mas time. It is just so beautiful.

So what have I been up too. I've been watching my ex neighbors kids twice sometimes three times a week. She is actually one of my close friends and I am extremely mad that she sold her Townhouse across the street and is actually moving to GA tomorrow.

There is so much going on this weekend we have a party my SIL is having. Then on Sunday we are going to pick strawberries with some our friends and their kids. The following weekend we have another party and Sunday I'm hosting a breakfast for the family. I usually do something before we go off on vacation, and the family gives the little ones gift and stuff. Then we leave Monday. DRIVING, that is correct we are driving to NYC. Yes, we are crazy! (You should know that by now.) I'm feeling a little anxiety. I'm getting a little scared about the frozen road but I'm sure we'll be fine.
I have to go the lil one's need a nap.
