| So it's been a while since I last blogged. Life has been a bit crazy but yet fun at the same time. First of July we headed for Oklahoma City and Kansas to visit relatives. Princess TWIG wanted to see the elephants at the zoo in OKC since Mom and some of the girls who work in the nursery at church had her convinced there were elephants upstairs one Sunday morning. There do happen to be elephants painted on the wall but they were not the ones we were referring to that day. The elephants from the OKC zoo were in Tulsa for a new exhibit so we did not get to see elephants on our trip . From OKC we went to Arkansas City, KS to see my dad's brother's wife and some of my cousins. We only spent one night there and then headed to Beloit, KS to see my dad's sister. While in Beloit, we caught lightning bugs at the campground (the city park), swam in the baby pool and went to church with Uncle Bill and Aunt Lila. We got home a few days before VBS started at church. Princess TWIG played in the nursery during VBS but had a great time painting pictures and going to sing. This week is Music Camp for the older kids so again she is in the nursery but seems to be having a good time. Mom had a good time on vacation and did not want to come back to reality. Mom's work has been lax lately as she is only getting scheduled about 10 hours a week. This does not pay the bills very well. So Mom is looking for something but staying where she is and mentioned that she wanted/needed more hours. We will see what happens there. Plus Mom and Princess TWIG are gearing up for the school year. Princess TWIG will be going to Children's Day Out 3 days a week this year. Mom is taking 12 hours and hopes to finish with an Associate's in Business Office Technology in May of 2012 (if she keeps taking a full load of classes). | | |
| Have you ever had friends who were your best friend until something monumental like marriage or a new baby came along? I have a friend who is a few years younger than I am who I thought was my best friend. I got married but still made time to keep in touch with my friends who were not in the same town I lived in. I had a baby and still try to keep in touch with friends. Said friend had a birthday recently and we have kind of lost touch due to marriage and my child but I called to wish her a happy birthday. I have not heard one word from her. I guess we have really lost touch now. I don't like that fact because I do not have too many friends to hang out and do things with because of the fact that marriage, children, or moving away play into the picture. I am also a bit down because I have had my hours cut severely due to "not having a very high percent to trans" which translates into not selling enough of the items in the retail store at work. So until my hours come back up I am only going to work. I am not eating at the establishment nor am I going to purchase retail items. The economy is horrible and we should be lucky that people are even entering our establishment to eat or look around. Plus, I am not a shopper who likes someone looking over my shoulder and constantly asking if I am finding everything ok or if I need any help. On a positive note though, I am going to take a class during the first session of summer school and I am taking nine credit hours of classes in the fall. All at the Community College but hey it's a step in the right direction toward a degree. | | |
| I know it has been a long time since I blogged. Life has been interesting. I looked for a job then I decided to stay where I am. I am kind of seeing someone. Plus with Miss Twig my life has been fun and interesting. | | |
| My life continues to be crazy but hopefully some things just got easier! We went to court in zozo today and i think we are finally going to get an order written up to sign and agree to. Mr X was not even there! School is over for the semester. I think I passed all of my classes and I am still not sure if I am going to take more classes at the moment. Work is kind of kicking my butt but I am trying to stay positive and stay with it. I went back to Cracker Barrel as a Cashier. They are trying to push us to sell the items in the store but with the economy that is hard to do. Plus people are not always interested in the target items of the day. All I can do is try but I don't always feel like it. HAPPY SUMMER!!! or at least Summer Vacation (to those not taking summer classes) | | |
| Where to start? Life is ok I guess. I quit my city job a few weeks ago and I am now working back at Cracker Barrel as the opening cashier (I have to be at work at 5:45 AM!!!) School is winding down. YEA! Not sure if I am taking summer classes or classes next semester yet or not. Stuff is the same. We go to court for a hearing on the 8th of May. Please pray! Thanks Hope all is well with all of you ~i~ | | |
