OCTOBER FIRST!

 Wow. Just starting October and I have already started filling in the calender with apts and things. Sheesh!

 Today was Promise's ortho consultation, again. She has lost 2 baby teeth and her big teeth are being HARMED By the way they set in her mouth so braces are needed sooner, not later. Go figure of the 26 points needed for Arkids to pay, she has 22. Apparently OVERBITES get the most points and that, is the only thing Promise does not have.

 Yes its going to be a lot of money and I was REALLY hoping that we could pay of Destiny's before having to start paying on Promises, but I cannot, simply cannot let her teeth be ruined, and I can see self esteem problems in her already, she sometimes tries to hide her smile, and I hate that. I cannot wait, simply cannot WAIT to see her smile all straightened out! I am excited! OH and I also get to torture her with TURNS OF THE EXPANDER HAHAHAHAH. :)

 So the day before Halloween, "hallows' eve" she will have them put on! WOOT! Another monthly payment added to my never yet started budget. At least he's no interest and he DOES allow payments. Oh and he's hot. Have I mentioned that? :)

 So not only that, but she will have 3 times to go this month to get the process started. Fun fun. Then I have parent Teacher Con. this week as well, tomorrow actually. AND the kids are out of school Tomorrow, AND all next week. Woot?! Yeah. Uh woot. hmmph.

 I have also made an apt. with myself. EVERY DAY I will sit down and I will make a plan for the next, what to eat, and keep it with in my "points". I am going to try weight watchers again, are you kidding, no meetings, I don't have the money. I know how the points work and I am trying it out. It seems easier than calorie counting right now. I get 23 points a day, that is how fat I am. UGH. I really just feel out of shape, completely and it sucks. So every day, stay within my point range, and also to work out. WORK OUT CLORIE. I feel so much better when I do, yet some how I always make up excuses NOT to.

 I have done this before, and I can do this again. I am almost ASHAMED To see people I have not seen in a while, I know I said that before though too. I think I have gotten to a point now I am ready to do something about it, at least, God I hope so.

 So here's to a new month, a new me, and a new attitude and soon for Promise, a new smile :) YAY OCTOBER!

8 years at the same job!

 I will say this about my work. No matter what is said, word gets around. Words also get twisted and changed, and rumors fly like well I don't know kites? I think co-workers are like a second family, not like to the point where you want to invite them over for Thanksgiving dinner... More like your around them enough that you are more than likely to have seen a bad side of them, and learned some annoyances. Chances are they were grumpy or depressed or pissed at some point and you have seen them at their worst. I think that makes it easier to get under each others skin and become annoyed. You get annoyed, you get over it, you move on. Your still co workers and you still get through. Like family, there are spats, you get over it move on and after it all your still family.  So do I always love my co workers or getting up early, or when someone is rude to me, or when I don't make any money... OF COURSE NOT. I have good days and I have bad days. Today it was raining, I would have ...

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

Time Flies

A year ago today my best friend gave birth to her second little boy. TWO years ago tomorrow my first granddaughter was born. Both seem like yesterday, but also so long ago. Two years in a row almost on the same day I got to watch the miracle of life happen... I have done it myself four times, but it never ceases to amaze me. To watch it is just amazing that our body does that. GROWS someone in side of us and then gets that someone OUT. Just amazing. Life is stressing me out right now however, I am trying to take this weekend to just tune out anything and everything that is getting to me, just have fun, go to birthday parties, eat cake and not worrry. Not worry about bills or calories or my steps (I even took my fit bit off) Just be me, just enjoy what there is in life to enjoy. My amazing friends, and my crazy family and the hot summer weather.
