As so it continues....

Well it has almost been a month since I updated.....hey I have been busy working and fixing problems (other people's computers LOL). Not only that but at my house we have sick kids and at work I have a sick mom. I have also have many projects on the go.
1. Making a rock garden in the back yard.
2. Planting lilies.
3. Racking leaves.
4. Painting the kitchen walls. (nice bright YELLOW)
5. Painting rocks.
6. Remodeling the bathroom.
7. Spring Cleaning.
8. Clean Sweeping the house and Garage.

I think that is all that I have on the go. LOL sounds like alot and I am sure that I have missed many of the things that I have going.

Sorry about the long wait!

Well it has been well over a month since I updated this blog. I know bad me! But I have been busy with life.....you know that is what we all live and try to improve. In the last couple of months I have been doing some serious soul searching and making changes to my life. One of the things that I have implemented is a different attitude. No matter what is thrown at me I keep a positive state of mind....sometimes I have to chant " Think happy thoughts " many times in a day but let me tell you that it works. Life in general has gotten "brighter" (for lack of a better word). I also went to the doctor and ordered a whole bunch of tests to be done (actually I was made to .... almost literally kicking and screaming). I am glad that I was "asked" to because I AM HEALTHY!!!! No chance of croaking it the near future (sorry "ex in laws" you will have to find another way to get rid of me LOL). Another improvement that is still in the works is my confidence.....we will see how that one works for me when I go out on that "date" sometime in the future. I also am eating way healthier than I ever have....tons of fruit and vegetables, very little meat, and plenty of fluids. So far I have lost another 3 pounds. I am so proud. Ok enough rambling already...I must go and pretend to work!!! LOL

HAPPY EASTER TO ALL!!!!!!!!!

What is wrong with this....

Have you ever stopped and looked at the people around you? You see the ones that flaunt their money to the world....you see and hear about the ones that lie, cheat and steal to get what they want out of people. No I am not talking about celebs. (although some fit the profile). I am talking about your everyday Joe. The people in your everyday life.

I am a honest, reliable, and I will bend over backwards to help out. I don't lie, cheat, or steal. And if I didn't earn something with honest work I won't take it. I also know people that work their a$$es off and give every bit of their heart and soul to help out others and what do they get? Nothing. They barely get recognized.

And what happens to the people that lie, cheat and steal? They get what they want because they play dirty. They are driven by greed. Where is the balance?

It just goes to show...." Nice guys finish last."

A 360

It is amazing how receiving something in the mail can make you feel whole again.... being a single mother I am on a fixed income and certain cheques come like clock work. Well this one didn't this month and I was faced with the decision of not being able to pay bills this month. Now I am the type of person that pays my bills on the regular, have never missed a mortgage payment, or a loan payment. So the prospect of not doing so just completely ruined my day/month. I was in tears yesterday and well into the night because I felt screwed... this cheque would eventually come to me but it didn't help for this month. Well I got the best phone call from the post office today....it arrived this morning....appearantly it got re routed and went the long way around. Now I can pay all my bills and get some food.

WTF Month

Is it just me or is Feb. the worst month of the year. I have been moody, lethargic, and down right cranky. And no it is not from me quitting smoking. I have had plenty of oppurtunities to start back up. Because let me tell you that life and people are reallllllly testing my resolve.

But on a positive note I think spring is coming.....I killed 3 spiders in my house within a span of 12 hours....and I didn't do the heeby jeeby dance....I just killed them....literally with my bare hands.....yes I washed them afterwards.....and yes I was in a REALLLLLLLY foul mood.

I am getting my hair dyed and cut today so maybe that will perk up the mood.
