Ugh it really sucks when you get money as a gift for yourself and you are struggling financially so you spend it on household necessities or on clothing for your kids. I seriously need new under clothes and new shoes but every penny I get goes to my kids which I don't mind really. I mean I'd rather go without so that they have everything that they ( Read more... )

It's Friday the 13th! I wonder if there will be any good scary movies on tonight or at least some of the awesome movies like Jason, Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, etc I love watching all those older scary movies ( Read more... )

Abigail Rose is officially 18 months old. I cannot believe it! Last week Abby went to see a cardiologist who did an EKG and an electrocardiogram. Both tests came back normal. The doc deemed her heart murmur an innocent one and sent us on our way. He said they are very common and it will probably disappear but if not that it isn't something to worry ( Read more... )

I wish these weren't blurry! It is so hard to get everyone including my husband to look at the camera at the same time.

Everything went wrong all day for me so I did what I do best, I re-organized and cleaned. Cleaning, decluttering, re-organizing, etc is very therapeutic to me. I redid the entire pet room, cleaned their closet, cleaned cages, scrubbed litter boxes, and gave everyone pedicures :)

A few pics just because I am proud of my work.

I just have to vent. My damn rent is due in 2 days, the car folks keep calling and now the van will be repo'd in 13 days if we can't come up with the payment AND we just got a 10 day cut off notice from the electric company FML big time! If I didn't have the pets and I weren't so emotionally attached to them all I would seriously just go live with ( Read more... )

Sorry I have been such a downer lately. I'm normally not like that. Life is just very very hard right now. My step sister contacted me today and told me that she will fly me and the kids to North Carolina for the summer...sounds great right? Well the only problem is I have 9 pets that rely on me for their daily care. I just don't know if my husband ( Read more... )

So I went to the doctors today (not a rheumatologist but an internal medicine doc since I can't get in to see a rheumy until June which happens to be when my insurance ends). The doc said that I could look into the hospital here and see if they offer any kind of programs for people with low income and no insurance so I am going to do that asap. Doc ( Read more... )

Omg I am so stressed out and just down right miserable with my life right now. Today I got a letter in the mail saying that since my husband gets $300 a week for unemployment that our food stamp benefits are now going to be cut in half. How am I suppose to feed a family of 4 with $200 a MONTH?!?!? I can't feed us with healthy foods for that amount ( Read more... )
