Random thoughts

So I went out with a friend that I have not seen in 4 years since my boyfriend Jim passed away. Its been kind of an emotional month for me so it was to have a girls night out, I hope to be able to do it again.

This whole month has been like an emotional roller coaster. My sister Linda passed away 6 years ago in December. On New years eve I had thoughts about the fun I had on past New Years eve's with her and it kind of brought me down.

My boyfriend whom was like my best friend was an alcoholic and former drug addict. He will be gone for 4 years on January 19. He died just weeks before his 32nd birthday. psorosis of the liver.It was a very sad event in my life. He was my best friend moreso than a lover. This year its hitting me hard.

I have issues with my childrens father. He is just a jerk. He has emotionally scarred my son. My daughter is just to young at the moment but eventually she will be hurt as well. I wish I could just meet someone new who would treat her as their own. Also to be a good friend to Dylan.

Dylan really just needs some type of male influence in his life right now and I just don't know what I am to do about the situation. I am just at a loss to help him deal with what he is going through and all his emotions.

My crush man I am crushing so much harder lately. He is such a nice guy. I think he may be attracted to me, but not really sure of expectations, maybe there is none and its just wishful thinking on my part?

5 question Friday(sorry its a day late)

I am joining in on this weeks 5 question Friday again, for more go to http://fivecrookedhalos.blogspot.com/2010/01/five-question-friday-11510.html




1. Worst trouble you ever got into as a teenager?  I think that the biggest trouble I ever got in was for ringing up the telephone bill, we had went on vacation and i met a kid from New Jersey that I talked on the phone with for hours and hours, to bad they did not have unlimited long distance back then like now.




2. Are you a morning person or a night person? how about an afternoon person, I am not full fuctioning in the morning but I am not a night owl either, I guess I take the middle road.



3. Are you a one-handed or a two-handed Texter? I think I am a 2 thumb texter mostly



4. Democrat, Republican, or Independent..or maybe even Green Party (whatever that is). not very political, I vote for who I think will do the better job.



5. Are you a pet person? I like dogs, my my kids each have a cat cause dogs are not allowed in my apartment.

1. What's your "comfort food"?
I like Soup  there is nothing better than a cup o soup to cure it all. I like home made soup the best but in a pinch a can of a homestyle soup will do.

I usually say thank you in person or on the phone if it cannot be face to face.



3. If you had to be trapped in a TV show for a month, which show would you choose?
There are so many to chose from, I have so many favorites. Okay I'll pick true blood... I would be one of Sookie Stackhouse's best friends... Okay House would be next choice



4. What is your favorite online recipe site?
I don't really have one


5. If you had to choose: "Friends" or "Seinfeld"?
I guess friends because I have never found Seinfeld interesting at all

Its Humpday and what I have done this week so far

Well it is wednesday or Humpday as some people like to call it because they have made it through the hump of the week, Technically for me it is the end of humpday as it is 11:57 pm.

So anyways on Monday my lap top died and I needed to get another one for how else will I get my blogging and facebooking done school work completed? I did in fact take my laptop to be repaired but they pretty much said ha ha you might as well buy a new one... Ha ha ha I have no money, so I left there and went to rent a wreck rent a center, as I have no money, they do have this deal though that if you pay it off in 90 days it is same as their cash price which is slightly higher the actual price at the store.

As a single mom this is how I have gotten some of the bigger ticket items such as my fridge and washer and dryer. I wanted to get a new kitchen table but alas this computer fiasco came first.

Well my apartment is still pretty clean after my deep cleaning. I mean it doesn't look as if a cyclone hit it yet.

So this saturday I am off to my friends again the one thats in this blog. I cannot wait hurry hurry saturday.

also going to see my favorite guitar guy both friday and saturday, how cool is that?

I need my breaks and enjoy the music.

I had a sad day a few nights ago, I was thinking of the people I no longer have in my life anymore. I think its because its still close to the holidays.

NOT ME Monday!!!!!

Following along with MckMama's  Not me Monday... for for more non confessions head her way.


I did NOT fail to post my Christmas post until December 31 no way why would I be so lazy?

I did NOT pay my sons teenage friends to clean the mess that Christmas left at my house. I am so NOT being so lazy this last week.

On Christmas morning I did NOT fail to put the ham in the fridge before I left for my parents house and my cats did NOT get into said ham and eat some of it.. Not my kitties.

Gee I did NOT like having two days to myself because I did NOT bring Alexis to daycare/school even though I was home for the week. she did stay with me the other three days but NOT because one day she had an appointment, one day there was no care and one day was a half day and I was Not to lazy to bring her in.



Can't wait to see everyone else's NOT me's

Starting on resolution 3

Or at least it is the third on the list of three things that I wrote for resolutions, which are not really resolutions. They are in fact Life changes that I need to make.

Anyways I got started today by extreme cleaning my apartment out, I am so thoroughly cleaning..So far two rooms are very clean.. see it can not look perfect because its not, the wall need painting, the rugs are dingey, so its not perfect but at least its working on being clean and organized.. I just cannot stand it... Of course it will all get clean with exception of Dylans room I just changed rooms between Alexis and Dylan, She just had way more stuff and no room, also because his room was so disgusting (I mean like growing science experiments) But alas both the kids rooms were clean, well Dylan is back to his old self of it looking like a cyclone hit it..

He refuses to get off his butt to throw his garbage away... not only does he do this in his room where eating is not supposed to happen he does it in every room.. gets a can of soda when finished throws it on the floor.. I even put a trash pail next to him so that he doesn't have to move..still on the floor..

He is almost 16 I pitty his wife someday, I hope she is a neat freak.

Speaking of neat freak, I want to train myself to be one.. I mean I am gonna be a perfectionest of anything. But I do not want to be ashamed to invite people over.. And I am gonna ride Dylans behind hard for him to get on board. Maybe then my 3 yr old will grow up to be neater unlike her brother.. But its really not his fault I never enforced it..

Maybe i'll get the nerve to even invite my crush over? Its motivation anyways

New Years Resolutions

To continue bettering the lives of me and my little family

to continue be more healthy

to have a more organized house

Happy New Year
