Monday, the kids wore shorts and t-shirts to school. That afternoon, I heard complaints of how hot it was!\u00a0 The house temperature was 78.\u00a0 Today, the kids both are wearing long pants and long sleeves. The house temperature is currently and I am hopefully to avoid the heat til at least Saturday.<\/li>\n<li>We will have to dig up sweet potatoes and grab the last of viable veggies from the garden as we are predicted to get our first frost Sunday night.<\/li>\n<li>I planted some lettuce bottoms in May and after we ate some they ended up self seeding.\u00a0 We have really been enjoying this lettuce during September and October. I walked out this afternoon and grabbed enough lettuce for 6 salads! This is probably the third full meal we have gotten and I grab usually a salad a week for my lunch.<\/li>\n<li>I am coming to the realization that my job in Guam may never come about. I have already received notice that I need to renew my Guam license by Oct 26th for next year. I have yet to use this license so I am thinking that I will not renew and mark it up to a learning experience. The biggest issue is that I will need to re-do our budget in December and eliminate the need for that income.<\/li>\n<li>Dinner this week has been a challenge, as I have had after school meetings 4 out of 5 days.\u00a0 I am hoping to get a better\/easier plan for next Monday and Tuesday. I also have a meeting on Monday evening so we may be ordering pizza after all.<\/li>\n<li>I have spent my grocery budget for the month so I am forced to say No to a really good sale at Harris Teeter.<\/li>\n<li>Going to end on a positive note, we currently are 1\/3 of the way to have our Christmas completely paid for via Swagbucks. I am hopefully that by December we can purchase all large items using this free money!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fall has officially arrived in North Carolina.
