1. We are predicted to have our first heavy freeze\/frost this weekend. I am rather sad about this. This evening after dinner, we harvested and frozen any green peppers and basil that could be picked. Tomorrow, the kids are looking forward to harvesting\u00a0the sweet potatoes. I am also planning to bring in as many tomatoes as can be saved.<\/p>\n

2.We have currently gone 5 weeks without using our heat or air. This should bring our October and November Electric bills\u00a0down to around $200. With temperatures to dip below freezing the next couple of nights. I am not sure how much\u00a0longer we can enjoy this break.<\/p>\n

3.I am so excited and proud to say that both the older girls are\u00a0 gainful and legally employed.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0All three of the\u00a0“little” kids had dentist appointment yesterday. Both Kendall and Zach came away with no cavities and Lily has\u00a0two small cavities but since they are both on baby teeth, the dentist suggested that we just wait. Zach has already started getting his permanent teeth and they have enamel.\u00a0 The lack of enamel on most of his baby teeth resulted in $5000 of dental surgery at the age of 2 and we have been anxiously waiting to find out if the permanent teeth would be the same. Zach has the same over crowding issues that both Lily and Kendall have so braces at least once per kid if not twice per kid are in our future.<\/p>\n

5.Budget wise for the month we are running fairly close. I\u00a0 have already over spent the grocery budget. Gas prices in our area, during the past week have ranged from $2.09 to $1.99 with no rhyme or reason for the sudden increases or decreases, because of these sudden changes, our gas budget is going to be a close call and may even involve less driving the final week of October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
