tough times

Tough times right now, not exactly very exciting. I miss being able to go out to eat at the drop of a hat and really enjoying it and looking forward to it.
Now every week I'm digging through recipes, trying to come up with a good meal 6 nights a week, does anyone really even cook 6 nights a week still. And the one night I don't cook, we eat leftovers.
I have enjoyed getting better at cooking and trying some new things and I think Luke is proud of me and I definitely know he is surprised with some of the things I have been whipping up lately.
It's only temporary, the paycuts, the economy, the no shopping or indulging in ice cream or Nico's Mexican Food. The shopping 6 months ahead of time to make sure my son has a good 1st birthday and great Christmas. It's all worth it! The sacrifices we make to get by. Never thought it would be like this. It's not the end of the world yet, but it sure sometimes feels like it. The hunt for more income is on and has been for the past week or so. Depressing as that is, who really can't use more money, this whole win the lottery thing just isn't working :) At least not yet.
