Because it Friday and I don't feel like working!

Let's see...I haven't written about my FPU in a few weeks. My sister can't believe that I blog about this. She said it was boring! I said I don't have much of a life besides Dave Ramsey. FPU...Tues. 31st Matt and I both attended class. This class was about how to deal with debt collectors. This isn't something Matt and I have to deal with but it was still very interesting. On the 7th I went to class alone and I loved it. It was about Marketing and since this was 1/2 my specification in college I found it so interesting. The video showed how companies do things to make you want to buy their product or remember the product. For instance this slogan has been around since the 1950s...Melts in your mouth....not in your hands. There probably are very few people who can't finish the second half of the slogan or who doesn't know what candy they are talking about (M&Ms). That's great marketing.

Some other big news that was announced on April 1st, no April Foolin', Matt and I are going to be an aunt and uncle again. Meredith and Wayne are going to have another little one! Whoo Hoo to being an Aunt again! Very exciting. Thanks Meredith and Wayne. Mattie is going to be a great big sister...and little helper! Oh and the baby is due early-ish November.

I have also finally finished with the whole name changing thing. SS Card, Drivers License, Checking Accounts. That's a big pain in the butt. Glad its over and I only have to do it once! (If Matt's lucky)

Speaking of Matt...funny story...last night we went to Wal-Mart. He wanted to buy some cereal. He takes like 3 steps down the isle and saw Frosted Rice Crispies. He get the cheesiest, most excited look on his face. Cracked me up and I made fun of him the rest of the night and all day today! I had never even heard of this cereal and he was so excited! He said it was yummy when I asked him about it this morning.

Something else that is new is that I have become a Southern Living at Home Consultant. Yesterday I got my starter kit and got some really cool things. I just don't know how to get started. I don't want to ask people "Hey will you have a party?" I'll have to think on this. Just thought it would be another way to make some money.

I am excited about Easter this weekend. Although I'm still not sure how the time is going to be split between the families. Good thing they are only 20 mins apart!

Well that's about all I got for now...and works almost over!
