What a day.....

So do you want to hear about my day???? Sure you do... Because you love me.... Okay so the day starts off like a normal day. My kids are at their dads house until later that evening when he was to bring them back home. I only had one kido to watch until then. At 6pm I was to leave to pick up the other little girl I watch and was only suppose to have her until about 8:30... So all in all nice day... Until.....

Well first 2 am I am BURNING hot!!!! I look at the thermostat to see it's 79 degree's in my house, I check online to see how hot it is outside and it's 75! Nice my house is hotter then outside and yet my A/C is blowing like crazy but with no cold freaken air! URGH! I get up first thing in the morning, and start calling and emailing our landlords.

I get really upset because my landlords say it might take 3 days to get this fixed. I then go off in email.... THEN our landlords try to say that if they have to replace our A/C unit that they will do so and then up our rent... Can we say ILLEGAL???? UGH

Then my ex calls me around noon to let me know that he believes his water pump is going out. He was driving to bring the kids home and the car started making aloud rattling noise. So off I go to pick up the kids which they were about 45 mins away. I get them, score though because my ex made us all Pizza! Whoo-hoo.. Good thing too because I was starving!

We all get in the car listen to who is doing what to do who (always a fun game you should try it sometime? not!). Get home, start feeding the kids. To what we hear a few moments later? My son screaming bloody murder. It was the type of scream where you just drop everything and run because you know something is wrong. Christopher tells me that Amy (my oldest) jumped on his finger when they were playing apparently Wolf and Cat? Never heard of the game but whatever... Amy claims it's an accident but still get's time out because our "accident's" in this house seem to happen quiet often and I wanted to teach the kids that yes they do happen but we still have to pay attention or people will get hurt.

Sortly after Christopher is still yelling, Derrick takes a look at his hand and says, uh Misty has his finger always looked like this??? His pinky was the finger he hurt and now his hand is making what looks like an L... Great.. Nope it doesn't normally look like that... So I have to call the mom I usually pick up her daughter and tell her I can't today, call the other mom and let her know my helper I have here will have to watch her son while I am away...So off to the ER we go! Low and behold it's broken... Sigh As you can see his nice little splint that the doctors gave him.


So we leave there, get him some Ice Cream for being such a big boy in the ER :) and then head home. Get home and realize I have no pain meds for him. Eat dinner go and get that. After we get home we give him his motrin, put the kids to bed and that was that...

Phew I am still tired....

It's our first broken bone... Twice now though he has hurt the same hand... Poor boy! Anyways thought I would share.

Boy have I been MIA

First I guess I will start with the MIA which for those who still don't seem to know what the "internet lingo" that means missing in action... Funny pharse if you ask me because not sure how much action I had before but okay I will take it....

I looked at the date of my last blog and it was something like October of 07.... Geez it's been almost a YEAR! Wow didn't think that it's been that long since I have talked??? No, really I haven't been a mute for almost a full year but anyways....

So what are my updates... Gosh well lets see here, I had gained an awesome boyfriend whom I really love, lost my trailer, got stuck living in an apartment with 20 something year old Harry Potter freak... Okay let's talk about this for a minute so I don't upset any Harry Potter fans out there, yes the movies are good... I hear the book is too though I regress in trying to read it, I'll just sit on my big butt and watch it on my computer with my savvy program I downloaded to watch movies...... Anyways this girl was a nice girl I will admit but come on who in their 20's walks around in a cape from harry potter??? Thus why I say Harry potter freak.... So I live with her and my boyfriend for like 5 long months, while my children had to stay with their dad (I wanted them to finish their school year). All while trying to find a job!

I find a job through a mortgage company, my boyfriend and I decide to live in a nice rental house that is costing us WAY too much but whatever, and then the unthinkable happens I get fired because my boss says that he feels I am working for just a paycheck???? Thinking to myself what am I suppose to work for bananna's or something??? Seriously isn't that why we ALL are working? But whatever, I then the next week get another job. I now work at a warehouse by this point. I start working wondering WHY on earth they even hired me as I sat bored at my desk most of the day and finding things through out the warehouse to redecorate. But hey I was getting paid 11 bucks an hour to move around crap and be bored. Why complain? Then market hit and wow that got more busy but I have had worse I mean I did once work at a daycare where I had 28 two yr olds and just another teacher with me.... So I consider myself super woman now and well this was nothing LOL...

I work there until market is over and they give me some bull crap of it's not going to work out, knowning darn well that they really just didn't want to pay for me being bored off my ass anymore since we didn't do so well with market. But hey whatever, move on to the next job. I get another job just almost 2 wks later.... Great paying job actually and I felt I could do this job with my eyes closed. The next day I wake up to find I don't have my car in front of the garage.

Sigh.... See it was one of those things where when money gets tight you find which bills you can just not pay... Well thinking I moved and everyone is like it will take them a long time to find you, I held off, found other things that seemed a little more important to pay and well time ran out and those little smart asses did their job and found me! Damnit... The day after I just got a freaken job too! Sigh.... Of course a week later my boyfriend figures out how to fix the garage door, would of been nice maybe now I would still have a car, however, I might had I just paid the bill instead of hoping they wouldn't of found me... Luck only goes so far I suppose lol... The job I have calls me and tells me to just not come in (I called them telling my car was gone, why I didn't lie??? I keep wondering that til this day but I SUCK at lying I am just horrible at it and well it just didn't come to me to lie) However, I just keep telling myself it all happens for a reason because this is what makes me feel better! K... Don't judge me you don't know me.... LOL...

So..... I whined, got depressed wondered why we really are here as puppets on this earth still wondering if god up above is watching and says yes my puppets yes corrupt yourselves??? As he is eating his popcorn and laughing at our own stupidity while we want to blame him for our mishaps which typically are resulted in something stupid we did and we know deep down this is true, even if you are not brave enough like me to say it. Anyways so I had my pitty party I won't lie... put up some ads because now I know I am stuck with one car which is my boyfriend who works god saken horrible hours that are almost impossible to share a car with... Ugh... Gas stations... But hey it helps pay the bills so I will not complain.

Anyways, I started watching children from my home. Which honestly I am excited about. I really do enjoy watching kids, even if sometimes I want to yank my hair out, yell into a pillow and wish for my magic fairy bitty boppity boo me out of here, but all in all I do love children.... So I started watching a 6 yr old little girl at night and now a 4 yr old little boy, both are very cute kido's... The girl a bit hyper I won't lie... Though she does but what 6 yr old doesn't lie... The 4 yr old little boy is actually quiet good! Almost makes me feel bad my children have turned into these... Well, we won't talk about it but for the most part I won't lie my kids are pretty good too.... When they are sleeping hehehe... No really they are.

So now I am just watching kids, hoping to get about 2 more and that will be that... It's exciting because I really do feel like I am on the right track now days... Oh and BTW I guess I forgot to mention that earlier this year I did offically get divorced too... Phew the year isn't even over and yet it's been SOOOOOOO LONG! Sigh...

Anyways that is my update... I will try to write more often now that I have a moment or two since I don't work out side the home currently.
