IT'S FRIDAY, IT'S FRIDAY - YIPEEE! Mood

Friday, May 16, 2008 | A General Update story

IT'S FRIDAY, ABOUT FREEKIN' TIME!

SO WENT TO CHILI'S WITH BOSS AND HUNG OUT TILL HUBBY AND JIMMY GOT THERE. I HAD CHIPS N' SALSA AND 2 TALL BLUE MOON. JIM HAD TO LEAVE FOR WORK AT 4:45 SO WE HUNG OUT FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND THEN JIMMY AND I HEADED HOME, LET THE DOG OUT, FED HIM AND WE WOULD UP GOING TO MY MOM & DAD'S HOUSE TILL ABOUT 8PM. MY COUSIN BARBARA WAS THERE WITH HER 7 MONTH OLD BABY BOY. SHE LEFT HER BOYFRIEND IN KENTUCKY CUZ HE WAS BEATING HER. SHE HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN RELATIONSHIP WHERE THIS IS NORMAL FOR HER. OK SHE HAS A DAUGHTER GRADUATION FROM H.S. THIS YEAR WHO IS FROM ONE MAN, ANOTHER DAUGHTER 16 FROM ANOTHER MAN, HAD A SON WHO SHE GAVE UP FOR ADOPTION AND ALSO MAY HAVE GIVEN UP ANOTHER SON PRIOR OR AFTER THAT. SHE HAS HAD A FEW ABORTIONS (WTF???) AND NOW ANOTHER. SHE ISN'T DIVORCED FROM THE 2ND BOYFRIEND BUT WITH SOMEONE ELSE AND ALREADY HAS A CHILD - CONFUSING RIGHT!?

SHE WAS LOOKING INTO STAYING AT A SHELTER. I FEEL SOOOOO BAD. SHE STAYED A FEW NIGHTS AT MY AUNT'S HOUSE, A FEW NIGHTS AT MY MOM & DAD'S HOUSE AND HER AND THE BABY ARE SICK SO MY DAD SAID TO STAY THRU THE WEEKEND WITH THEM AND IF THE SHELTERS I GUESS ARE TOOO BAD, IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, THEN I GUESS THEY WILL FIGURE SOMETHING ELSE OUT. SHE STILL DRINKS BEER BUT WAS BAD, VERY BAD ON DRUGS BUT HAS BEEN CLEAN FOR 2 YEARS NOW, SHE SAYS....

THIS KINA STUFF JUST DRIVES ME CRAZY. THANK GOD I'M IN THE SITUATION THAT I AM IN AND CAN SUPPORT MY FAMILY AND HAVE WHAT WE HAVE. I COULD NOT IMAGINE BEING IN HER SITUATION BUT SHE DOESN'T THINK FIRST. THIS FAMILY IS NOT BLOOD RELATED AND I SWEAR THE WHOLE FAMILY IS SCREWED UP, MY STEP MOMS SIDE OF THE FAMILY.

ANYWAYS, AT WORK, JIMMY GETS OUT OF SCHOOL TODAY AT 12:10, JIM GOT HOME THIS MORNING AND I THINK WENT TO SLEEP AROUND 8 BUT SET HIS ALARM FOR 11:30 SO HE CAN PICK HIM UP, HOPEFULLY I WILL GET OUT EARLY SO I CAN RELIEVE HIM SO HE CAN GET A FEW MORE HOURS BEFORE HE HAS TO LEAVE FOR HIS LAST MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. HE LEAVES FOR WORK AROUND 4:45PM. I SWEAR THE KIDS HAVE SO MANY DAYS OFF AND SO INCONVENIENT FOR THE PARENTS AND MAKING ARRANGEMENTS YA KNOW - IT SUCKS!

SO YESTERDAY JIM'S MOM & ONE SISTER CALLED ME, MY FRIEND MARGIE, MY FRIEND KAREN AND MY DAD BESIDE JIM OF COURSE- THAT'S IT. I HAD MORE DS FRIENDS WISH ME B.DAY WISHES. DO PEOPLE NOT MARK ON THEIR CALENDARS.

DOESN'T THAT DRIVE YOU NUTS, I GO OUT OF MY WAY TO MAKE SURE I CALL EVERYONE ON THEIR B.DAYS, WHEN DO I STOP.

JIM GOT ME A "LOVE" PLAQUE W/STAND, A CABELAS T-SHIRT (WHAT?) AND A WORKOUT SHIRT (OK). MEN JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO PICK GIFTS, I TOLD HIM JIMMY SAID HE GOT ME PERFUME, HE SAID THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD IDEA. I TOLD HIM TO START ASKING OUR SON AND I WILL MAKE SURE I GIVE HIM IDEAS, HEE HEE. BUT IT WAS THOUGHTFUL OF HIM ANYWAYS, HE HAS NEVER BEEN GOOD ON GETTING GIFTS, HE TRIES AND IT'S THE THOUGHT THAT MATTERS, MAYBE HE HAS ANOTHER ONE FOR ME ON SATURDAY WHEN WE GO OUT, YEAH RIGHT .

HE DID MENTION KOHL'S IS HAVING A SALE AND I ALSO GOT A 30% COUPON IN THE MAIL, SO LOOKS LIKE I'M HEADED TO GET MY OWN GIFTS, THAT'S OK, RIGHT ON JIM! HEY, IT WAS HIS IDEA!

HE ASKED IF I HAD A KOHL'S CARD CUZ U GET AN ADDT'L 30% BY USING YOUR CARD - WHOO HOOO, I LOVE SALES AND I LOVE THAT STORE! JIMMY WON'T BE HAPPY SHOPPING, OH WELL, HE NEEDS NEW SHOES.

SO THIS MORNING I HAD 160 CAL OATMEAL & 130 CAL 2% MILK. SO IT'S ON, NOW IS THE TIME TO GET SERIOUS AND GET MY BUTT, YES BUTT IN GEAR. I HAVE BEEN SLACKING WAY TOOO LONG AND NEED DISCIPLINE. I HAVE TO GET A PLAN TOGETHER, THAT'S RIGHT AND DO IT. STICK WITH ME, I WILL FIGURE IT OUT IN NO TIME AND BE HAPPY LIKE THE REST OF MY DS FRIENDS WHO ARE EXERCISING AND EATING RIGHT.

HAPPY FRIDAY! THANKS TO YOU ALL AND HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

I hope that you have an nice weekend...shopping is ALWAYS fun!! I am sorry to hear that all your birthday wishes didn't come true, men always try hard, but never quite get the whole present thing right do they?! I have started to tell my husband exactly what I want :) Good luck getting back on track...I still think that you are doing fabulous!!

Have fun getting yourself gifts at kohl's!! You know what? No one remembers my birthday either. And I swear to you that I tell people 3 months, 1 month, and every week prior to it that it's my birthday, yet sometimes ppl just don't care enough to call....GRRRR!!! But we all love you here and we SO would have thrown you a wild party if we could all be together in person!
Big hugs to you and your family- it sounds like a really tough situation. Hugs! =)

Enjoy the shopping at Kohls shopping trip - that will be a lot of fun. When I was in high school, every year my mom would give me a mini shopping spree for Christmas and we would do a little shopping on the after Christmas sales. I love sales! Anyway, I hope the family drama gets sorted out soon... If you ever need to talk about it, I know my share of family drama. Anyway, here's a big ((hug)) for being a great family member!

Hope your weekend is gonna be great! You deserve it with the crazy schedule challenges. I hate that school is off constantly or 1/2 days. Don't they uunderstand we're not in the kitchen wearing aprons anymore? Lets start a revolution SCHOOL ALL YEAR LONG!!! Why should teachers be off so much? Anyway thanks for the pizza advice and enjoy your b-day festivities and shopping. (((HUGS)))

Well, the family drama stuff serves the good purpose of appreciating your own family. Yes! even if your hubby gives you Cabella's T-shirts he is still trying! At least you didn't get an electric cheses grater like I did a few Christmases ago. That one went back!! He had good intentions. Says he sees how hard I work using that box grater etc. I always treat myself to something on my birthday, so I always get something I like! We are here for you to support you with your goals! You are SO supportive to me and I really appreciate it! have a great weekend!!
