As for a real update...
I was able to get honey back in time for 4th of July. Things have been pretty good between us. I have to admit, he's been pretty randy since he got out, which has been nice. LOL!
Hubby has moved out. He's now in an apartment in the city with one of his friends.
We're still trying to figure out what it is that we want to do after living here. I have a few ideas. We could buy a house not too far from here, just across the bridge in NJ. (Why NJ? you say, well due to wonderful homeschooling laws and getting out of the city so I feel ok letting my kids outside to play.) Or maybe a house in Delaware near my mom. Or should I go ahead and get another boat and live back in Florida again. The there is the most out there idea; Homesteading. Hubby's family has some land that they will be selling when the market gets better, but in the meanwhile, we might be able to all move out to the San Fran Bay area up in the mountains and try homesteading, (which hubby and I have talked about for years and honey seems to be ok with).
So, all these ideas keep rolling around in my head, to a point where it hurts. At this point, I'm working on getting my bills paid off so that my credit will improve, (it will be good for any choice we make). And as that's all I can do right now, that's what I'm focusing on. Before I can move forward with any "plans" I need to have debt paid off, have everyone on the same page and have some money saved up. So, I wait... you'd think with how much waiting I've been doing I'd be good at it... but I'm not.
I'm also starting to experiment with making bath and body products. I'm hoping that after a little experimenting that I'll be able to start a business. I had forgotten how much I love stuff like this until I got a thick lotion/butter from the Faire. I've fallen back in love and want to make it to share with other people. So, I'll be making body butter and other bath/body products for Christmas for everyone. And, as I said, if things work out well, and we enjoy making the different things, I want to start selling them. I'll probably sell both on my etsy and in local farmer's markets (once I get a car and can get to them).
That's about all that's been going on; trying to figure out what's going on... LOL!
