Brandons Home!

he already hates my picture taking!


I am so excited! today has been one of the best days I have had in a while! I took my brother to his meeting this morning which took like 6 hours, then we ate lunch with mom, then I decided to add another line to my cell account and got him a new cell phone and I had made him an appointment for a practice GED test! I am such a good mom! Afterward I picked up dinner for everyone, and then went to take my majors biology test and made a 95! WOW! I'm one of those ppl that aren't really that smart so this was awesome news for me! However, I did have to drop my chem class there was just no way I could go on 32 hours without sleep on mondays and I hate chem. SO...... I just have to focus on my world lit class that I keep skipping and I may make all A's this semester! here are some pics after we picked brandon up!

Blah

So today I am still very sick, not only from the common cold that i've had for a week now, but stupid me decided I'd go have a few drinks that led into a very long and sick night ahead. Today I am feeling pretty bad and now remember why I dont drink very often and when I do in small moderation. I am at work again until 6am, another 12 hour shift that I get to work by myself. I'm not complaining, it is actually peaceful, and not too busy! Perfect for a not so great me. Hopefully it will stay that way for 5 more hours. With hurricane Ike here school has just stopped! It is great my Biology test was moved to this next week because the testing center closed early and my physical conditioning class (Aerobics) is canceled for the second week in a row now ( they are housing evacuees there), first for Gustave, and now Ike! YAY... and I finally got a chance to see Will and I was very inebriated (thought this was funny...)

Behaving as though affected by alcohol including exhilaration, and a dumbed or stupefied manner.

I was in a dumbed or stupified manner! ha no mas though im done! I even woke up still puking. Onto a new and better week though! Im going to try to be positive! When I get off Im going to get me a good shower and head to Will's for a good night/morning of sleep until work again at 6pm. Hopefully my camera battery charger will come in the mail this week! =) thats it for now though

Oh and no word yet on if I have to work thanksgiving, but considering they are starting this year to pay time and a half on holidays I might just work it, I did get the weekend of thanksgiving off though! I have a crazy boss!

More School

So I am currently up at the school (just got here really) studying for a bio test tomorrow... not too worried but i will feel much better about it before I leave here. Well I hope I do. I got ahold of my Uncle Pat and he has my camera charger YAY! so Lots of pics to come! I have been sick all week, still am and it sucks. with that trying to go to school study it can get too much. I havent seen Will since Monday I think, minus yesterday when I stopped by his work for 5 minutes to get some cough drops from him. Brandon is coming home Monday! another YAY! but I still havent found another job, sux. Hopefully god has something grand planned for me! Ive been having a rough week. But it seems to be getting a little better. I had to call in to work wed and thurs so I could catch up on my school since ive been sick and man has it been hard. Pray for me tomorrow that I can do well on my test and finish catching up on my homework.

Oh and today I cleaned my car! It needed it bad... And Pray for Lauren, baby Hadley will be here soon! Thats it for now got to get studying or I dont get to see Will!!!!

another day

So I am at work and sick. Who knows what with but I feel awful... I have been getting pretti sick latley these past 6 months. (well more than I normally would) And I have found the reason..... WORK. I am too stressed with my job and I believe that is what is causing me so much sickness. I should probably go to the doctor but I am one of those ppl that just hate to go. I dont get off work for another 10 hours then I get 3 hours of sleep, shower and go to class at 11am until 8 p.m.! yahoooooO!! Yes I am being Sarcastic. But as soon as I get done with tomorrow the rest of the week wont be too bad, except for wed and thursday because I have to work and there is always drama at work. I need to spend tuesday looking for another job! oh and I have a test this week, along with like 6 quizes. pray I make it to next week without getting too sick. Oh and hopefully Ill found out if I am supposed to work on thanksgiving even though I was only hired for the weekends. (another drama event that no one will show me a policy on! and im asking off two months in advance) CRAZINESS... have a better week everyone!

Oh by the way the reason i dont have any pics up is because when i took me camera up to arkansas for my grandmothers funeral i left my battery charger. My uncle kevin couldnt find it at his house and i know i left it before we got an hour away i knew i forgot to pack it and that i left it plugged into the bathroom. My mom said yesterday that someone had the same camera as me, and it is my Uncle Pat so hopefully he may have accedinatlly picked my charger up! i havent taken a picture in 2 months! and i priced the charger and it is $ 70! Hopefully Pat has it or ive got to shell out 70 bucks. just great.

Biology, Chemistry, and World Literature OH MY!

So school has started and I am ready for christmas break! I work my 12 hours weekends still going in Saturday at 6pm to Sun 6am. then Sunday at 6pm to Mon at 6am. With Chem lec monday at 11 am, Chem lab at 1 to 430, Biol lab 530 to 8. Then tues world lit 825 am -940, a "physical conditioning" class 115 to 1230. and so on for the rest of the week! so on mondays i get almost no sleep! this semester is going to suck. on top of that im going to start really kicking my butt in gear to make A's hopefully. I am going to try my hardest and get energy and think everyday about how grateful I am. But you know those people that are just always happy and never seem to have an off day? does that really happen? Bc if so i need to become friends with these people.. I found a saying that fits me and my sis and mom perfectly........


Wish me luck this semester I am going to need it! I'll let ya know how my first test goes ... (that is in a week! AAHHH)

school school school

So, there is a few months missing that I didn't write anything about. School has changed for me, from nursing to Health and Kinesiology at UTT. Then I will probably get a teaching degree and just teach somewhere. Or better yet I'll get married and just pop out some babies to take care of and make play dates! :) I am taking some classes at TJC this semester (my last semester there :,( although I already have two associates lol) I will be going to UTT to finish the rest of my classes and should graduate December '09 if i push it but probably not until May'10. kinda far off but its still something to look foward to! I like my plan! Now all I have to do is keep Will in the picture long enough.... haha hopefully he will put up with me for a while! Thats it for now! School starts in less than a week. oh and books are too expensive, i say everyone should boycott buying them!

I'm Sick...

So back to enjoying the wonderful days off from work... yeah right. So Thursday was a wonderful day off handing out resumes, and then everyone getting together at my papa Jims house for a family dinner. My mom got off work and her Lori and I started cooking. Steak, Grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, corn on the cob, salad, rolls, and my famous brownies ;) ! sam, karen, papa jim, lori ann, aunt laurie, and uncle mike all joined and it was great wo have everyone there to just hangout with papa jim for a while. Afterward Laure and Lori got papa Jims internet fixed! The next morning I woke up feeling completely awful, i couldnt hardly get out of bed. I took some benadryl and slept through the whole day finally waking up around 9:30. Deciding I better get something to eat since I hadnt all day I decided to get my mom to go to the store with me. After we checked out, came home, and were done unpacking I noticed we were missing the bagels I had bought to eat with some yogurt. We got back in the car and rove back up there to get them, what a hassel when i dont feel well. However, i ate some of the bagel and yogurt took some nyquill and went back to sleep.
Saturday came and I felt even worse I woke up in cold sweats, freezing but sweating, coughing, my whole body ached, headache, sore throat, the works. I try and pull it together because I was supposed to work at 6 that night. I grabbed a shower (at which I couldnt breath after about 10 minutes) through some clothes on and went with my mom to mercadoes for lunch trying to blow off whatever it was i had. We get to mercadoes and I cant eat anything, just dont have the stomach to hold any food. Afterward I went home tried to throw on a little makeup to look somewhat desent to see will since i hadnt seen him since thursday. By the time I get up to carinos I am really sick with a fever, cold, and practically dripping in sweat. He told me not to stop anywhere and go directly to the doctor. So I did, and sure enough I've got bronchitis. So I call in sick to work get the medicine and go home. Around 7ish My mom made me some toast trying to get me to eat something (by the way I had already lost 4 pounds). Plus I have to eat with the medicine because i will normally get sick and nauseated from it. I eat almost 2 peices of toast to get the medicine down. I read the directions and Always look at the side effects. I told my mom I would get the side effects! She said I was just like my papa jim and gma kay! and sure enough a hour and a half later I get the abdominal cramps, diarrhea, and nausea. So Sunday comes and still facing the side effects I call into work again. Today is monday and I am finally starting to feel like I can get out of bed, and move around. I am supposed to work tomorrow and get my hair done that will had gotten for me for my birthday. He said I can go get my hair done, but we will see about me going to work tomorrow! as much as I am "enjoying" this break... I'm ready to get outta the house!
