Need I say more! I am so glad it is friday! And I am going to use this weekend to its fullest advantage because it will be the last FULL weekend i have off for a long time unless i have to request off for some reason. because my new job's schedule starts on the 2nd! So, It will be working the hussle for me!

I am anxious to be done with training though that is for sure. I cant take much more of doing the same crap everyday. Considering, I will still be doing the same crap everyday when I am on my own but that is just it, I will be on my own and not have to worry about being kept in this room! I will get to mingle with the other people! (and I will be making more money...which is what really gets me going)

Anyways, I have to say that I am super proud of my boyfriend. He took his last test for his GED today! So now he is officially edumicated! (I spelled it like that on purpose by the way) hehe!

So now I have to celebrate and I dont exactly know what to do because I am broke! No more money left over from the waitressing job, and this job doesnt pay until the 1st.

Ideas please!

To say that I have been busy would have to be an understatement.

I started the new job last Monday and Holy Balls batman! It is INTENSE and FAR harder than I ever thought it would be. I figured it was more typing that talking considering its "captioning" but No! Totally opposite. More talking that typing. I am re voicing everything I hear to form the captions. I barely type anything. You have to be able to re voice at least 132 words per minute with a 2% error rate! *blink blink*

I took at timed test friday to see where i was at...

This bitch can re voice 190 words per minute with a 1.5% error rate!

Now thats whats up! I kick ass I know! HA!

This week is cracking down and perfecting what I can already handle. And I have to keep passing those timed tests otherwise Im booted. And I wont make it to week 3 of training because they will show me the door. Which is what I dont want.

Because if I have to go back to that damn restaurant, I think I will cry...

say a prayer!

(on a side note, until today when I trained the computer (how funny is that) when I would say Barack Obama - the computer would pop up Bomb Iraq O' Bomb bwahahahaha)

Product Review & Giveaway: Sunglass Warehouse Sunglasses

28 Comments

I was recently asked to review a pair of sunglasses from Sunglass Warehouse! I was really excited to do this because for one, I love sunglasses and for two, the pair I currently had where about due to be upgraded! And I personally would have never thought to buy sunglasses online (yeah, im old skool)!

So I quickly ran went to their website to check out what they had to offer! And I was amazed at what I see. The site is very well organized! Right away on the main page you see that you can choose either Men's Sunglasses or Women's Sunglasses. Each of which are broken into smaller categories like Aviators, Celebrity, Retro, Oversized, Etc. Then along the left side, is a list of each one of the other categories that are offered by not being broken up into Womens styles or Mens styles but instead by style, trend, etc. I browsed around the Women's category (obviously) but then chose on the side "Rhinestone Sunglasses" to break it down smaller to see exactly what I was looking for. Im all about the girly stuff!

I was VERY impressed about the selection of sunglasses available. One thing I was worried about though was the fact that I have a fat face and have a hard time finding sunglasses that fit my face! I only find glasses that are too small and squeeze the side of my head. So I was really impressed when I saw that they have a guide on how to choose sunglasses based on the shape of your face!

I had finally decided on these sunglasses

Are they not just the cutest!! I freakin LOVE them! I got them in NO time FLAT! Shipping was VERY fast. And they fit my fat face PERFECTLY! Which give them even MORE bonus points in my book!

A few things I discovered about the sunglasses from this company:
  • All the sunglasses are UNDER $20! Which is awesome when you are on a small income!
  • Everything you purchase ships the SAME DAY
  • Free shipping of your order is $25 or more!
  • You can return anything 365 days a year!
  • All sunglasses have a UVA/UVB protection! (Mine have UV400!)
All in all, I am VERY pleased with these sunglasses and am even considering placing an order for my boyfriend! For Christmas of course! I recommend them highly if you are looking for new shades! :)

Remember The Fallen

0 Comments
 What a somber day!

September 11th used to be just another day! Now, as the day creeps up, my heart starts to break and my anxiety level increases.

I remember waking up on this day to my phone ringing like crazy with my mom calling me and asking me if I had seen the news. I hadn't because I had been sleeping. I asked her what happened. That is when she told me that a plane had been hijacked and flown into one of the towers of the World Trade Center.

Retarded me asked me what the hell the World Trade Center was! *dude, I was half awake...cut me some slack*

I was shocked, jumped out of bed...and I seriously watched the news 24/7 for the next month or so! My t.v. was always on CNN or MSNBC! I watched when President Bush did the live bombing (Shock & Awe) on Iraq (was it Iraq? I have a bad memory) and was litterly in shock & awe!

I cried over and over again as they showed what happened over and over. I cried harder when I saw people jumping from the buildings knowing they wouldnt survive that jump but knowing they where hoping for survival!

I couldnt imagine being in that area and having to deal with all of that chaos. Pure Chaos had been unleashed and I dont know how first responders maintaned their composure while helping all they could.

My heart broke for the children who lost parents and for the couples who lost their other half. I cried so hard for the women who where pregnant who lost their husbands. Those poor sweet babies will never see Daddy!

The other day I watched the movie "World Trade Center". I reccommend it!

To those who have lost, My thoughts are always with you. To those first responders, thank you for all you did and continue to do. To our Troops, Thank Goodness for your bravery and willingness to fight for our Country! Without you, we would be a mess!

Always in our Hearts, Never Forgotten!

Screams, Farts, & Constipation, Oh My!

1 Comments
So, after 3 months of dealing with the constant screaming & gassy-ness of my beautiful 3 month old baby, we figured out that it wasnt ME that was broken...it was her...LOL (not literly)

I couldnt bare to hear her screams of frustration and constant farts like a grown man any longer. So I took her to the doctor who immidetley assesd her and switched her to Soy formula! Because apparently, my little peanut has a milk allergy. Which would make complete sense as to why I breastfeeding was not going well and why her forumla was giving her gas! MILK! (I for one shouldnt drink milk because it goes through me)

She got this formula on tuesday and he said that it would take a couple days to see if this is better because we have to wait for the other formula to get out of her system. I'll be damned if we didnt see an instant reaction! She didnt scream her head off after eating, and when I put her on my shoulder to burp her, she burped instantly instead of fighting for a burp! She was smiling and happy! Amazing.

Then the wednesday came and thats when we found out that she cant poop!! So I quickly have been giving her prune juice (by the advice of her doctor--1oz. prune juice, 3oz of water to make a 4oz bottle of formula!) Girl was tryin so hard to poop but only little bits where coming out...and you can tell it was hurting her! :( She finally went on thursday but I still think she is trying to go!

And let me tell you, I think this girl is making up for lost time, because she is sleeping more now than she did when she was born. So all that time of being filled with gas and fighting her sleep had to have been related somehow because she is CONSTANTLY sleeping! And she has slept through the night for 2 days in a row now! LOVE IT!

Biting My Tounge

2 Comments
It is getting harder and harder for me to bite my tounge with Branden's mom egg donor!

There was a party by Branden's grandparents (her parents) house on Sunday! We where invited to come but I made some lie up about having another party to go to already so we didnt have to go because I didnt want to deal with her. I knew she would be there...and she was. Brandens grandpa asked us to pick him up later and we agreed that was ok. I love his grandparents! They are awesome and nice!

Anyway, we left to go get Branden and I was hoping that she would be gone by then, but no such luck! As soon as she saw me, she shot me the dirtiest look ever! Then turned to the people sitting on the deck where she was at and said, "Who The F--- invited them!" And she was then told to shut her mouth! Then someone told her step-mom and she said she'd take care of it. I dont know what happened after that....

But I saw today that she posted on facebook that we have him brainwashed! Simply because he didnt want to talk to her at all and said that he was going to keep ignoring her. She thinks we tell him to do these things. Which is not the case! We tell him to not let her bully him and you do what you WANT to do regarding her. He knows she is a sucky parent, he is just now starting to not let her hurt him anymore.

My heart breaks for him every time he has to deal with her bullshit! She makes herself out to be the better person when none of it is true. She believes her own lies. She told us (through a SAVED text) that she doesnt want Larry, Branden, or any of us near her or her family ever again....and we told her dad she said that because Branden was upset that he wouldnt get to see his grandparents again...and he confronted her about it....and guess what...she denied it! So now we are making things up!

I dont know how much longer i can keep myself from saying things to her. She tells everyone we are bad parents, yet she goes months and months without seeing him. For instance, the last time she saw him before sunday was MARCH for his birthday. WTF!

How do I keep from ripping her head off, because really, Id love to just scream and hollar at her and make her cry and feel like crap!

If you dont have to deal with deadbeat parents, consider yourself VERY lucky!

(Oh and BT...she took pictures of her new baby at the party, but didnt take ONE picture of Branden...)

Thank You...

To the sweet 3 month old that sleeps in the pretty natural wood crib next to my bed...

You went to sleep at 7pm which allowed me to watch Big Brother in peace...Thank You....
You woke up at 330am to eat...which is fine, that is your normal time, but this morning, you refused to go back to sleep until 530am when I had to be up at 6am to get your brother and sister up and ready for school...

and now you lay next to me, kicking and cooing, refusing to take your morning nap so that I may get a nap before work...

Thanks for that....ya big meanie!


Crazy Baby!

First Day of School!

1 Comments
Today, is a sad beautiful day!
Its the start of 180 days of having my house to myself from 7am to 3pm! And its frickin FABULOUS!

Larry is at class, Vanessa is passed out in her swing...and its QUIET!! No whiney MOOOOM's, no bickering over whose turn it is to play the playstation, and no whining or complaining in general....

and I must say its FRICKIN FANTASTIC!

Dont get me wrong, I love my kids. I really do! I tote them everywhere I go with me! Branden is old enough to stay home alone, but I dont let him. Only on the rare occasion when I just need to run to the grocery store and dont want the extra baggage following me. But other than that, I am with them 24/7 besides the few hours of work...

So when I get the opportunity to have a peaceful house to myself...I enjoy every last SECOND!

Besides, my kids love school! Courtney was so excited this morning that her tummy was upset!!! But she was all good to go by the time we got there. Teachers love her...she is their dream student (and they tell us that)! Branden gives his teachers a run for their money! Not because he is a bad kid...because he isnt! He is very smart. He just doesnt like to turn things in. But he is 8th grade and he SWEARS this year is going to be different...we shall see!
