Rough day for my house

Well we received some bad news today that my husbands check will be garnished and therefore this puts me out for weekend work! ugh. Which is not at all something i want to do. I want to be home with my family. i know know who wouldnt but this is part of our plan. me be home and him work. I know that he could just work weekends also but its important to all of us that he gets time with the kids aswell and so here i go...looking for work YAY me. ugh this bites a big one. I have decided that we are going to research every money saving tactic. EVERY SINGLE ONE and i will become financially happy before i die!

introducing....ME

Hello everyone!! My name is Ashley and I am a stay at home mom of 3...well more like 2 1/2. My stepson is here every other weekend. I have three kids, Triston age 14, Kendal age 6 and Zephan 3 months. I thought that i would start a blog and perhaps help someone like myself with the struggles of being a stay at home mom and wife. Im a crafty, frugal mommy and my kids are crazy and full of energy and attitude. I believe my daughter is a 16yr old stuck in a 6 yr old body. can you relate? It amazes me every day how much attitude can come out of one little body. most people say she is just a little me, i however have no clue what they are talking about lol. My Stepson Triston is a handful. seems to think he knows everything there is to know but whats new he is a teen lol. And my little Zephan. Well he is too young for anything still but he is a cute cuddly bundle of joy. And my husband...well he is the description of perfect. he is amazing and supportive and my best friend.

For the most part our lives are pretty average. day to day there's school, work, car pools, shopping, cleaning and more cleaning. Lately i have felt like all i am is a mom. I dont know if anyone else can relate to that but that is how i feel. My identity seems to have morphed into a mom/wife role and whatever i used to be has ceased to exist. Day in and day out I happily take care of my family and love every minute of it. however i cant help but miss a little me time. So a week ago i embarked on a new life path with a company called Scentsy. Im sure you have heard of it, they are amazing and pretty much everywhere. I already feel a sense of belonging with this. I feel like when i work on my scentsy business that i am concentrating on me and something that I love. Which i must say for a mom is pretty darn important. Well looks like my first entry is a bit longer than i thought it would be so i shall end now. Thanks for reading and keep checking back :)
