Working, St Nick & Busy Days

We had a visit at our house last night… from St Nick… that jolly man left lots of goodies for my kids and that included candy that they didn’t need. They’ve been way too crabby all day because they’ve been up way to early to rip open socks full of candy and trickets and toys… oh the joy! Can you totally tell I am not feeling the holidays? I don’t know why, but I am just not. I am getting them in the shower shortly and then off to bed they go!! Time for mom to have some QUITE time!

Hubby’s back to work again, on nights. I hate when he works nights. I think the only thing that keeps me sain when he’s working nights is my security system. I love it. When I was pregnant with Alex we started looking at home security companies and all the benefits of them. Our garage had been broken in to one night while we were asleep. This scared me. Our garage is attached to our home. We rarely locked the door between the garage and the house. We quickly decided that this would be a GREAT benefit for not only our home, but our safety. I love the security of the sytem. I literally have no worries when I go to bed at night. Every door, every window is protected. My family is safe. I sleep well, they sleep well. When we go on vacation we never have to worry about our home. The security company watches over it and ensures that it’s kept free from strangers or anyone that shouldn’t be entering. Our belongings are safe. We actually get to save 20% a year on our home owners insurance too. That is so nice. It wasn’t all that expensive to have it installed and put in. It’s beyond paid for itself in the first year or two expecially with the insurance savings. I love the safe feeling.

We have remote controls for our key chains that we can turn the alarm on and off before we enter the house. They work so nice. We use them if we go for walks and stuff too. A motion detector also came with our system and they have it all set so that our puppy doesn’t set it off. Nice!! When it comes to security… these are definetly the FIRST things I’d consider… which makes me GLAD that I have one… expecially when my husband is working nights and I am home alone with the kids overnight. I love it. It makes it so much easier for me to sleep. I don’t know if I could sleep at all if it weren’t for this!

Anyhow… Okay I think I am going to SET my security system now that I’ve totally talked your ears off. I’m freezing my butt off and I want to cuddle up and get some rest. Maybe tomorrow I will actually scrap some. I had the most adorable photo session today with my god daughter!! She’s such an adorable baby! I love her so much. The pictures are amazing!!! I need to get scrapping them!! Later bloggers!!
