    End of Summer

    Hard to believe it's almost the end of summer.  Time flies when you are so busy, and summer is always a busy time for me.  I have enjoyed this one more then most, I have tried to actually live, instead of watching everyone else do so.  I went to Six Flags for a couple hours today, such relaxation was in order, it's been so hot lately.  I figured I might as well use the season pass, it will be getting colder soon.

    My back is doing a lot better now.  I still have random pains when I'm driving at times, or if I sit in a spot that my back doesn't like, but it's not as bad as it used to be.  I can do everything as normal, which is great.  I felt bad not being able to pick up the kids at work or Kira. 

    Hard to believe my baby goes to school in 2 short weeks.  I can hardly believe it.  Feels like I mere 2 days from when she was crawling around...sigh.  I can't wait for Jenny's son to arrive.  I needed a new baby in my life.  I wonder if I will ever have a husband and kids of my own?  Seems like the answer is no.  You would think I would just get over it and move on.  I'm having a hard time with that though.

    September promises to be a ridiculously busy month, October not much better.   Then again, by the time they are over the holidays will be on top of me....hmm, I think before I know it 2010 will be here lol.  It is a year to travel I can see that.  January is a wedding in North Carolina, and May is a graduation in New Orleans.  I am excited at the thought of going to all these places, I plan on making traveling a habit of mine.   Might as well while I'm young lol and not tied down. 

    My hours are about to change at work.  I will be working 4 days for 10 hours, instead of 5 days.  They need to spread out people cause work isn't as full as it used to be.  I don't care, I will still be getting my 40 hours, and this is one day without a single child in my care. Kira will be in school, and everyone else will be at work!  I plan on making it a day of catch up housework, errands, etc...mostly SLEEP!  I never get much anymore.  I also wanna start taking 3 day weekend trips to places, now that I have that extra day to do things. 

    I cancelled all my credit cards last weekend.  I am tired of debt and never having any money once I pay my bills each paycheck.  I know I will still be scraping pennies for a while, but in the end it's for my own good.  Eventually I will be leading a more profitable life.  My contacts are fogging over, time to get off the computer.

    Bedrest

    So I have this sharp pain in my lower left side of my back on Saturday, and I thought it was my kidneys acting up.  On Sunday I went to Urgent Care and found out it's just a strained muscle in my back, but they put me on bedrest until Thursday.  This does not sit well with me.  Ah well.  I know I need to heal but it's still not helping much. They meds they gave me have me sleepin around the clock, they wipe me out!  I'm hopin to see progress soon, so far I'm not as sore but I'm very stiff and cannot bend down to pick up anything that's lower then my knees, which is going to be very bad when I go back to work.  I won't be able to do anything, but I really need to go back cause I'm using all the remaining vacation hours I had just to cover for the missed days of work now. 

    Sigh.  Such is my life.

  • On my Mind

    Happy Birthday...since you're on my mind hard today I figured if I said something somewhere, even though I will never talk to you again in person...maybe you would get off my mind.  So Happy 25th...your heart never truly stops loving that first one...

    Ocean City

    Ocean City was a blast.  I had the best time with my four best friends.  It was so nice to be without worries or cares for 4 whole days.  I hated going back to work with a passion.  I'm thinking that I may need another job.  I try to get off at every opportunity,  I just don't want to be there half the time.  And I need to work because my car needs some major work done on it, and I need money for that.  It stranded me until 4 in the morning the other night because it overheated and I was in VA, with no one to come get me.  I finally just had it towed home, much as I hated forking out the money for that.  It's been working since, but not the greatest and you can forget about AC which is so lovely in this heat.

    2 weeks without Kira was torture.  Her father had her, and I thought I was going to go insane.  I kept myself beyond busy, so that I collapsed by the time I went to bed each night.  I am so happy she's home now, even if shee did come home the wild child lol. She must have done as she pleased for the 2 weeks, because so far that's what she wants to do now that she's home....hmmmm.  I am actually looking forward to her starting school in the fall. She needs to learn to read, I'm going tongue tied with her love of books lol.  It's not a bad thing, just ready for her to do her own reading. 

    Saw Harry Potter 6 twice the other day!  I went at midnight and then got back up and saw it again at 2.  It was great.  I really enjoyed it, much as I was sad we went to Largo so therefore missed all the opening night fun.  I'm not going back there again that's for sure.  Ah well, New Moon will be out in November so  I can watch the crazies at that one.

    Visitation

    Well I visited a new church this morning, Fellowship Baptist.  Well it wasn't really new.  I had been there years and years ago, back when it was a "sister"  church to Capitol.  An old friend of my sister's invited me back there today so I went.  I really enjoyed the service, even if it was longer then I am accustomed to.  Kira listened well, which impressed me.  It may be a place to go back to in the future, though I will probably visit a couple others before I make a decision. 

    I am on vacation til the 30th!!! I am super happy, it was much needed.  I am attempting to spend the day with Kira on Wednesday as she will be with her father from Friday until like July 12th or something like that.  I am going to miss her like mad.  The first weekend won't be so bad because I will be in Ocean City with my besties, but the next 2 will be hard.  Sigh.  I can't imagine doing this for real, with my own child.  My godbaby is hard enough.  So gonna rotten her up when she gets back. 

    So after this vacation it's buckling down on the bills.  No spending if it's not clothes for the growing child.  I have got to get these cards paid down in the hopes of one day being in my own place.  For now it's simply not possible, and I can accept that since it's my fault that I got here. 

    Well must get baby girl washed up and in bed.  I'm putting her in camp in the morning for the first time, we shall see how well this flies.  She was all for it earlier, hmmm lol
