I need advice...

A certain daughter is behaving strangely toward me these days. If I try to make an appointment (yes, appointment) to see my Grandbaby, it's like pulling teeth. Either she has an excuse as to why she won't be home or she does not reply to my texts or phone calls. I can't think of a thing I've done to make her mad at me and with the twins coming soon, I'm afraid I won't be able to see them either. Any thoughts about this? I've tried talking to her and all she says is she's been busy. I can't believe she doesn't see my texts because her phone is an extension of her hand but she ignores them. I'm going to see her today and am not sure if I can't hold my tongue about all of this. Give me strength because I don't want to upset her with only a few months for her to deliver. Advice anyone?

Stress...

Things I stress about:

How to pay off my college loans.
Making my paycheck stretch enough to buy food.
Learning how to save for my new ROTH.
Praying my knee doesn't give out completely.
Dying with Vicky alone in the house with me.
Lauren having trouble with delivery of the twins.
Going blind.
Surviving.

Babies....

I just found out Lauren is expecting TWINS!!!

One more week...

One more week of RES342 (statistics) and I'll be done with this part! It's been a hard and at times fairly easy class but mostly due to the instructor. The tutorial was the hardest part (for only a ten point grade) but that ten points can make the difference between an A or a B depending on other class grades. I take my final next Saturday. Wish me luck!!!

Kids....

I'm not sure what is going on with Lauren. I've been trying to go see Caylee for three weeks now and her momma won't make time for me to come by. On top of that, Lauren is preggers again! Now I'll have to hunt down two if I want to see them.

Pictures!

Kidlet graduated last night!!

I'll post pics soon! She had such fun at the graduation...

Okay, so I've been suspiciously absent of late...

Between school, work, and kidlet I just don't have time to come on here and post but I know I should. My life is going on, right? I start a STATISTICS course next Tuesday and believe me, I am not looking forward to it! I've been studying off and on for the past two weeks trying to sort of make sense of some of it. I think its the formulas that will confuse me more than anything. Any thing that looks suspiciously like MATH, I hate automatically. Oh, on a side note, I bought a new car (AGAIN). I traded my 2008 in for a 2010 with an extended warranty this time. Zero percent financing so let's hope I can make the 30.00 more a month payments. I managed to finally get a raise at work too. A whole 32 cents..haha. They do it off percentages of something (I forget what my boss told me). He did get me retroactive (I think that's the word) for the past 90 days since I should have had the raise in December. I'm managing to get some overtime still so that's a good thing too. Now if I can make enough to pay bills and buy FOOD! : )

Today is my birthday!

I'm so excited to be a year older...NOT!

Sometimes strange things happen...

The strangest thing happened to me yesterday. I had a knock on my door and it was my OLD boyfriend from many years past at the door with a box of candy. He wanted to wish me Happy Valentine's Day and visit for a bit. Very strange. This is a man I will never go back to for a variety of reasons. I'm still confused as to why he did this since he never did anything like that when we were together. Very very weird. Anyway,

Happy Valentine's Day tomorrow!!

Pictures!

I got in Vicky's senior pic and her grad pic today. I wish her teeth were in better shape but other than that, I think they turned out terrific! Also got another picture of Caylee (8 x 10) woohoo! I'll try to scan it and post it another day. Enjoy!

Time is flying by...

It's hard to believe its the New Year and I haven't posted since November. December was actually pretty busy. Between class and working 30 hrs of OT in a two week period and then 14 hrs of OT, I mainly worked and slept. Kidlet went to Oklahoma for two weeks during that time so it was nice to be able to get in the extra time at work. Classes start back up on Tuesday for us both and I think I'll be making an A- in this class I am currently. I really don't care for the topic and am doing all I can just to make a good grade. Astronomy is not my strong suit. We have one last team paper to submit and a final then I get a two week break before Macroeconomics begins. Caylee is almost 10 months old already! Unbelievable! I am already anticipating this year flying by as well. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!

Too much to do and no time to do it...

I've been working extra hard lately trying to get as much OT as I can while they are offering it. Kidlet is going to OK for Xmas break so I hope to be pulling 11-12 hr days while she is gone. Started up an astronomy class last week. Gotta get that science credit, you know. Still making A's in school and trying my best. For those of you who read this, sorry I didn't post a Happy Thanksgiving Day post but better late than never, right? so Happy Thanksgiving! hahaha

Wanna see a cutie?

OH NO!

I just realized I forgot to post a picture of my little pumpkin during Halloween! Isn't she adorable?

Thanksgiving again...

Well it's soon to be Thanksgiving again. Where has this year gone to? It seems like just yesterday it was NYE day and the year was beginning. Things I am thankful for:
CAYLEE STELLA
KIDLET'S HEALTH
MY HEALTH
STILL HAVING MY BRAIN FOR SCHOOLING
HAVING A JOB
BEING ABLE TO SUPPORT US BY HAVING A JOB

I'm sure there are other things I'm thankful for but that's the most important I can think of at the moment. I am having my one year anniversary at work next month. Wow! Time is flying by there too. I seemed to have moved from the mail room to scanning department though and still trying to figure out how that happened. I like the scanning though because I can sit down all day. Not sure if I will stay there or not but we will see. I have another class that starts up on Tuesday (Astronomy). I have to fulfill my last science credit then its back to main core classes. I'm supposed to be reading my chapters today but I haven't felt like it. It's early yet though...

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, what are you thankful for?

Okay, my mug is posted...

I joined Facebook, why? I have no clue...people keep sending me gifts and I keep forgetting to accept them. If I had more time for it, it would be okay, but hopefully they'll forgive my lack of time to accept them. I can post comments from my phone though..isn't life grand? hahaha

It's tough...

When team mates have emergencies or drop out of class. I've been so busy with my Economics class that I've barely had time to do anything else. Luckily, I have other team mates willing to help take up the slack and that makes it more easier.

On a different note, we are expecting more rain! I think we are in for a very wet winter this year. Not sure if it will be cold or not, just wet.

Got to see my Grandbaby today! She is sitting up by herself and eating baby food now. They grow so fast. Spoiled rotten too! Can't be too far from her Momma or she throws a fit! But she's sooo cute...



See what I mean?

It's raining, it's pouring

Rain rain go away....

Less than a week to go...

Why is it that time flies by so quickly? I take two weeks off between classes in order to have a break and spend time doing the first assignment for the next class but for some reason this two weeks is flying by and I've not had any time to do anything. I'm not ready for my class to begin! Am I getting burned out by this stuff? I'm thinking I need more than two weeks. Maybe after this class, we will see. Economics is going to be difficult because I have a hard time reading those stupid graphs. Fortunately, I've had both economics classes before so hoping I actually retained some of it. Anyway, guess what I get to spend my last weekend of freedom doing? Writing my first paper for class in order to stay ahead of the game....
