After Christmas Baked


Let's get this Holiday crap over for another year! Christmas wasn't too bad. Friday we took the kids to my mom's, Saturday to his mom's, then Sunday we stayed home in our PJs all day long! Yeahhh!! Kids played with their new toys all day while we lounged around and did nothing but play Uno Attack. The day after Christmas we got some bad news about a family member. I can't really go into details though because we were swore to secrecy until this person tells the rest of the family. It would be shitty to find something like this out on a blog! Unfortunately, it kind of goes along the same lines as my Pour Your Heart Out post a week ago. If you read that then you may understand more.

The Christmas break hasn't been TOO bad, actually. I decided instead of loathing these two weeks, I would actually spend some quality time with my kids and do some things with them. Sometimes I feel like I really don't spend a lot of time with my kids because I'm always on the computer trying to earn money, or cleaning and doing things around the house. Last week, we spent the week baking cookies, making Christmas cards for family, playing games..etc.. I've also been making them go through their old toys to see what is broken or what they want to give away. I was actually surprised how much stuff they wanted to give away or throw away. It used to be like pulling teeth to get them to get rid of anything, even a stupid happy meal toy! I told them that they had a bunch of toys they don't play with any more and they needed to make room for all of the new toys from Santa. It actually worked this time!

Now I'm enjoying sleeping in and not having to worry about homework and all of that and I don't want them to go back to school!... I do miss my alone time though.

Oh yeah, so I said we baked some Christmas cookies. We always do every year. .. and that's about the only time of the year because, yeah, I really don't like to bake. It's fun at first, but it fades fast.. and there's always a mess to clean up, all over. I am definitely not one of those people that bakes 10 different cookies, cakes, and candies for the holidays. Not at all. I'd rather just eat yours.

So I posted about the job interview I had last week. I'm hoping to get it, really I am, but there's a part of me that is scared to get it. I mean, a medical assistant is kind of an important job. If you make a mistake, it's a person that you made a mistake on, not just a piece of paper. What if I read the doctor's orders wrong? or forget how to do something? or do something stupid and look like an idiot? Can I really do it? Not to mention, working one on one with so many strangers all day? I'm really shy. I'm not as bad as I used to be, but I'm still shy. I've learned how to force myself to be more outgoing though. School helped a lot with that. I also worry about being emotional. Ugh, I cry at the drop of a hat and it pisses me off!!!!! What if a patient is upset and I start bawling? or a little kid is crying and I start crying? Oh good lord! I'm gonna drive myself bananas! I know I can do this though. I know it.
