The Holiday Spirit

Ehhhh, what's happened? How does time get away so quickly? Where did Christmas go? It's gone already? So how was everyone's holiday? Mine was pretty good. Very good, in fact. Our inheritance from my grandmother came in, and the check cleared the back on xmas eve. I think my grandma did that on purpose to show me that she is still watching over me! I mean, seriously! Christmas eve!? I got a new (well, not brand new, but only a few years old) Chevy Trailblazer, that comes with all of the extras: heated leather seats, 3rd row seating that folds down, a dvd player in the back for the kids, I love it!!! We got some things paid off, some bills caught up, some things we have needed for a long time, and still have $$ left. Thank you, Grandma. You really were and are an angel! So my Christmas was very good, despite my daughter acting like a spoiled ungrateful brat about her presents. She was down right rude to my mom, and my mother in law. Where does she get that from? I'm sooo opposite of that and so is my husband. 


I don't have anything planned for New Year's Eve. We never go out. I would like to, but we never do. I wish we had some actual friends to go out and celebrate it with. I wish we had some really close friends to go out with. I have some friends at school, and have one girl that I am getting to be very good friends with, but none that I really go out and do things with. I really don't have a "best" friend. I have friends, but that's it. My best friend is my husband, which is great and all, but sometimes I miss having a best female friend.


I have almost 2 weeks off from school and I'm so happy! I desperately need the break, even though I'm going to spend half of it cleaning the house spotless. My brain really needs a break, but this new year is going to start my interesting classes. I start Pharmacology next week when I go back. 


I finally have a break from school and what happens? I get sick! First time this year! Started out as a stomach bug which lasted for 2 days, then turned into a chest cold with a stuffy head and non stop coughing! Come on, really? I thought I was going to get lucky this year, but I guess I can't complain too much. Usually I"m sick numerous times throughout the winter/cold season.

My new ride! Yes, I love it! Merry Christmas To Me!!

Kids Giveaway!

No, I'm not going to give your kids something, I'm ready to give MY kids away! Seriously, mine have been soo horrible lately and driving me absolutely insane. It doesn't help that school was cancelled today due to the weather and my kids have been arguing and fighting since the moment they woke up. In fact, my 7 yr old son and 6 yr old daughter were wrestling and my daughter's front tooth got knocked out! Thankfully it was just a baby tooth, but come on! My daughter acts like a spoiled little brat. I'm at my wit's end with her. She doesn't listen, even when I try to sit down and talk with her about stuff, she just starts playing with other things or looking at something else and doesn't listen to a word I say. She does everything she knows she is not supposed to do, she talks back, she cops an attitude with us, and today when I was talkin to her she actually covered her ears. I mean... WTF!? I don't know what to do with her anymore.. I've tried everything I can think of.. I can't do this for another 12 years!! Help!!!!!!


We finally got some flippin snow. It wasn't a blizzard or anything but enough to mess up traffic, and have school cancelled today. I tried to go to my class tonight but the road I take there was complete ice, so I turned around and came back home. I did get some pretty pics yesterday though! We attempted to take the kids sledding, but it was tooo freakin cold out.


I'm still not in much of the xmas spirit. I think maybe it's because my kids are out of control all of the time. Makes me feel like a bad parent. I'm stressed out all of the time. I need to call super nanny or something. I can't stop them from fighting. I try to play games with them.. they fight. Try to find something fun to do with them, they fight. They fight over the dumbest little things and it's non stop, as soon as they wake up and then as soon as they get home from school. They already have a delay for tomorrow.. i'm sooo hoping school isn't cancelled again, I need a break. I feel like a horrible parent saying that, but I can't take it! I try to just ignore it, but after awhile, it really gets to me. I try to separate them, but it doesn't work. Sometimes I feel like I just want to run away. I thought parenting was supposed to be wonderful? I'm not enjoying it.

This is a pic I took yesterday at the park. It was a beautiful winter wonderland!!

Jeff Garcia is F'n Funny!!

Yeah, so I'm sitting here on a Saturday night watching Jeff Garcia on the DVR, my husband snoring next to me on the couch, feeling the need to blog. Wow, I'm such a flippin exciting person, everyone wants to be  ME!!


I made it through Algebra by the skin of my teeth.. yeah, so I needed a 60 to pass the class and I ended with a 65! Phew! Happy as shit though because I found out that my instructor got her ass fired.. hahahahahahahahahahahaha!! Ok, I'm really not such an evil person, but she should not be proud that the average for her class is a 55%! She really shouldn't be teaching. But I'm done with it, Algebra, and all numbers in general soo yeaahhh!! I'm in Constitutional Law right now. My instructor is also a lawyer and he spends the entire time talking about how crooked the judicial system and government is and how they lie and cheat everyone. I like him already!!! Going to be an easy class for a great ending to 2010! Maybe my next post will be a review of the year? Hmm, we shall see.


Can you believe it's almost Christmas? The decorations are up, the xmas songs are playing everywhere, but I just don't feel it. I'm usually alll excited for christmas, but this year it just doesn't feel like the holidays already? Is there something wrong with me?? My tree is beautiful though; I did a good job decorating it, haha!


Maybe I'm not feeling it because we haven't gotten any snow yet? It's flippin December 4 and all we've had is a little dusting from a few days ago. Not that  I'm complaining because I really do hate winter and snow, but what's going on here? Where is the snow?


I've been trying to find some new writing work. The company I normally work for has really been.. sucking lately. No good articles to write, so I've been looking for something else. I wish I could just find some private clients to work for. I really can write better than I do in this blog, this is just my.. fuck around blog and my dontgiffafuck blog! Wish me luck. My husband has been getting worker's comp but his 12 weeks are up which means the amount is going down a lot, and he may not be going back to work for quite a long time, so I don't know wtf we are gonna do now. I may have to try to find a job outside of the home sooner than I thought.
