long time no see

So, I've been away for a while. Lets do a quick catch up :)
When I last posted (end of june first part of july) I believe I was headed to Iowa for my grandfather in laws funeral. My husband, brother in law and I had to do a full honors military funeral. Everything went well and the guys held it together very well for the ceremony. It's so strange how I go into soldier mode and have such thick skin when I'm in uniform. And of course men don't cry. The guys were able to hold it together through the funeral. So we make it back from that.

We get back home and two days later I start my new job. Omg. Working and going to school still. At first it was fine. I was off Monday and Wednesday and only worked half a day Tuesday and thursday and then all day sat and sunday. The semester ended. I changed my school schedule so i could work during the day and take night classes. Big mistake. My gpa dropped from 3.5 to 3.0. I barely passed my english class. I've never had problems passing english. But apparently, since I was working and then going to school right after work, I was doing homework at work and my essays were not up to par. Bleh. Glad that's done with though.

Somehow, through all that, I was also invited to join the national society of leadership and success.

Anyways. I love my job. I hate the heifer I work with. Shes extremely shady and vindictive. Whatever. She's old news now. I just come to work with a smile on my face and hope she says something stupid to make me blow up on her. Only she says the stupid stuff infront of customers, I don't. And by the time they get out of the office, I forget why I was pisses. I know Im still pisses but can't remember exactly why. Lol

So, now its still work, school and Fallyn. I've learned how to make it work and keep my hair. Lol. And I'm going to try and post more pics. Since this is "a snapshot of my life" lol.

So here's the cutest little pen I found at walmart yesterday.



And when you squeeze him. His eyes pop out!



cute "bubble eye" pens and love

Back to school, back to school....

School has officially started again this week. I had a 6 day class about 2 weeks ago. So, I'm only taking 3 classes during this semester since I'm finished with the 6 day one. I'm hoping these classes are super easy and I'll get A's in them so I can keep my 3.5gpa. The 6 day class was public speaking. As of right now I have a C in that class because she hasn't graded our speeches yet. I'm also taking business English, Microcomputer Applications (word, excel, powerpoint, access) and beginning keyboarding. Business English I thought would be hard but it looks like its just going to be another refresher English class. I got my book today for this class.. they sent me the teachers edition!! OOPSIE! I ordered the right one though. They just sent the wrong one. Computer apps should be really easy to except I've never worked with access. And I know I'll get an A in keyboarding. I mean really why should I even take this class?? Well, other than the fact that it's in my degree plan.... I've been typing anywhere between 65-85 words per minute on my assignments!

So, along with going to school I'm also being pressured to find a job. I've talked to the school about the work/study program but I haven't heard anything back yet. It just seems so hard to find anything that's going to work around my school schedule (1-3 m/w and 11-3 t/th) AND something that will allow me some time to spend with my family. Not that we ever do anything fun or exciting anyways... I don't know... Maybe I should find something that has some pretty crazy hours that way Josh has to be the one that drops Fallyn off in the morning and picks her up in the evening and has to come home and make dinner... after he's run all over town doing my errands like I have to do for him during my down time since I'm not currently working. I swear he won't take any personal time for himself to do anything during work hours... for example, today. I had to go take his truck to get an estimate done on it since the idiot at Lowes decided to drop the stop sign on the hood. Why couldn't he go do this during work??? Or um, LAST FRIDAY WHEN HE WAS OFF WORK!?! Everyone else he works with gets to leave early for lunch or come back late from lunch to go do this or that... *sigh* I don't think he realizes how much I do for him while he's slaving away at work and I don't think he's thought about how he's going to handle it if I do get a job.... I guess we'll see what happens. I better start looking harder for a job... cuz we're broke and we both just got paid! EEK

If we didn't have bad luck, we wouldn't have any luck at all

Sunday, Fallyn is broken out with a rash that appears to be chickenpox (luckily it ended up only being an allergic reaction to something) A transformer blows a couple of blocks over and fries our dryer. UGH! Tonight we went to Lowes and bought a new dryer. We drive around to the back where they have the lumber yard and all the other junk. We pull up to the gate and the attendant takes our receipt, opens the gate, tells us which bay to go to to pick up the new dryer, we pull forward and the attendant closes the gate. On the hood of the truck. Crap. And all he says is "oh, oops" ugh you old ass! stop thinking about sandwhiches and pay attention to your job! We pull around to the bay we're supposed to pick up the dryer at, thinking someone would be there to pull it for us, nope no one there. We also checked the dent/scratch the stupid attendant had just put in the hood. I've been in a crappy mood all day so I get out my phone, look up the number for the Lowes that we're at, call it, and talk to a manager that doesn't sound very pleased at all. We ended up filing an incident report. Now we're just waiting for our insurance to get in touch with them or whatever needs to happen in order for us to not have to pay the damn deductibe and make Lowes pay for it. Hopefully they do. I swear it's just one thing after another. Hopefully our luck will start getting better soon cuz I don't know how much more of this I can take!

Oh how I hate stupid people..

So this girl I know just had a baby and it is or isn't her husbands. No one thinks it's her husbands. Her husband doesn't even think it's his. He apparently knows the baby's blood type and between their two blood types there's no way the baby could have the blood type that he has... and supposedly the girl doesn't know that the husband knows this. Anyways... this dumb cunt (excuse the language but I really wanted to put her in her place last night... keep reading, you will too) So, I'm at their house last night with Josh while he's helping the guy work on his truck. Fallyn is there with us too. Anyways, this girl is outside smoking and drinking and not wanting to take care of her baby. I ended up feeding him twice and dumb cunt fed him about 45 min before I decided to leave. While I was trying to get Fallyn out the door and into the car, the baby had started crying again so I went to check on him, gave him his binky back and walked to the front door. In that short amount of time, he had spit out his binky and started screaming. Poor little guy was hungry again. I told dumb cunt that the baby was back there screaming again and she starts throwing a fit like "what is wrong with him I just fed him like 3o min ago." I so wanted to tell this bitch if she didn't want to take care of her kid, I would be glad to take him so she could party and do whatever the hell she wanted besides being a mother to her 2 week old son. Sometime in the night she had decided that I was going to be staying there and getting drunk with her. Which wouldn't have bothered me but 1. I don't drink to get drunk and didn't want to play her stupid drinking games. 2. I only drink when I'm at home and 3. I had dogs to take care of a home and a child that won't sleep at their house. So, I left.

Yesterday (may 3rd), Josh and I were running around like crazy dropping the truck off to get the oil changed, applying for tags for the new car and taking the stereo out of the mustang... in the pouring ass rain. We ended up having to pick up "the husband" and take him home after he dropped his truck off at the dealership. I had left some tupperware at their house a couple of weekends ago and went inside to get it, when I walk in I notice that dumb cunt is no where to be seen, the spare bedroom light is on with the door shut and the baby is on the couch by himself... this spare bedroom also happens to be the one she uses to smoke pot in... I don't know if that's what she was doing but one could only assume so. EEEEFFFFF!! I swear if it wasn't for her husband being there, I would call CPS.

I'm so excited! and I just can't hide it!!

I got a new car today :) I was sad to see the mustang go but, we needed to get something that was better for the family. The mustang was just so cramped. Poor Fallyn would have to put her feet up into her car seat if someone was sitting in the passenger seat. And it was so hard to get her in and out of there. I now have a 2010 Nissan Altima and I couldn't be more happy with it. I was looking at a Ford Fusion to begin with but Ford didn't want to work with me any. So, peace out. I went to Nissan. They gave me over 3000 more for trade in than Ford was trying to give me. A whole 5000 bucks ugh! Thanks, but no. I had to go with the best offer in order to keep my payments where we could afford them. Anyways.... I gotta go pick up the house some. A friend and his wife and the wife's baby are coming over. oh geez there's a long story... maybe I'll post about that tomorrow after the art show :)

First time for everything

Lunch was rather interesting today. Josh insisted we go to Pizza Hut (gross) . I know I'm totally not American because I don't like pizza... or hot dogs. I'll eat them occasionally but it's not my first choice for a meal.

So, off to Pizza Hut we go. We get in there and their buffet/salad bar is practically non-existent! There was only about 12 pieces of pizza and absolutely no salad.at.all. They didn't even replace the salad until after I had eaten 2 slices of pizza and about 5 cinnamon stick things. Anyways, that's not what this story is about.... There is a guy there. Extremely flaming. And dressed in what reminds me of Sailor Moon. But now that I think about it, he was dressed more like Where's Waldo since he had on a red and white striped shirt. For some reason what he was wearing just reminded me of a sailor I guess. He also had bleached blond hair and the most annoying voice EVER! I don't think I've ever hear a gay southern guy. It reminded me of that pothole geico commercial. He had a little bit of a deeper voice though.... not by much. I can't even remember anything the guy was talking about but once he finally left, the building was so quiet.

This evening when I was picking Fallyn up from daycare, she decided to lock me out of the car. I was about to put her in her car seat when I noticed that she had left some chocolate in her seat and it was melted. So while I cleaned it out she climbed up into the front passenger seat and started pushing buttons, and locked the door. I get done cleaning her seat, put her in it, shut the door and walk to the drivers side to get in.... it's locked. CRAP! I walk back over to the passenger side and of course it was locked too. I don't know why I was thinking it would be unlocked. Silly me. So, I go back in to the daycare and call Josh to have him bring me my spare. Ugh! Luckily the car was running and the a/c was on while Fallyn was in the car so I wasn't too worried about being locked out.
