Laundry

I put soap, water, fabric softener, clothes, etc... in the washer and left it. I went back an hour later. Water was full, clothes were wet, but that washer wasn't washing. I pushed, pulled, flipped breakers, and unplugged, to no avail, the washer wasn't' going to agitate. Man, life sucks. I pulled my clothes out, rinsed and rung out all the clothes. My hands hurt more that they had in a long time. But I put the clothes in the dryer, and they were ready the next morning.

But that washer still isn't working. So to wash all my daughter's clothes, I'm going to sit on my short day at work, and wash clothes at the laundry mat. Man I have better things to do that sit at the laundry mat and wash 20 pair of toddler socks. Yeah, me....

Lets see how long it takes me...

SO Sad

Well, my time off is over. I'm back to real life tomorrow. I'm so disappointed in myself. Yet again I didn't do anything. It was too cold to take Kari out in the weather. Then when we went to Grandma Faye's house we didn't do anything again. Well I've got to do something soon or I'm going to bust.

My Vacation

I'm so excited for my time off of work. I haven't had a vacation in over a year. I took time off before I had Kari, until I started work after Maternity leave, but that really wasn't a vacation. I wish I had the money to go away, but being a single mom, who works for little money and a baby daddy who doesn't always give me the money that I need, well I don't get to go anywhere.

I'm going to get Kari's 18 month picts taken tomorrow. I have a shirt that says "I Love Mommy"and a pair of jeans. She's going to look sooo cute. I think I'm going to put her hair up in pig tails. It's getting long enough.

I'm just ready for something new, something to change, or someone to change... but I don't think that will happen anytime soon.

Day Care or Baby Sitter????

This week I've been contemplating changing from a baby sitter to a daycare. I like that she's in with people I know, but the babysitter schedule is getting on my nerves. Every time we talk I swear it's something different. No Sundays, (okay I can live with that), No Mondays, Tuesday, or Thursday nights, (we work around that), if I take her Saturdays it's more money, (okay I can handle that,) but when I first started to take Kari to her, I worked nights, but for the last 6 months I've been working days. Well now I have to close two nights a week, because we got new district management and that's what they want. Well nights don't work for her anymore. I pay her more money than the other babysitter, and get a cranky, sleep deprived child back at the end of the day. My good for nothing baby's daddy told me that he's not going to take care of her so I have to figure out what I'm going to do on my own.

I love my life some days...

Wic Office

Today, I went to the Wic office to pick up checks for my daughter. There are two very nice ladies that work in there, but there is one lady that thinks she is better than everyone else. For the most part I tell them what they want to hear because they look down on you if you don't do what they want you to do. Kari's pediatrician told me to take Kari to the dentist at age 2, but the wic office lady said she should have been there by the time she turned one. Hum who should I listen to. The Doctor with a degree, or the nutritionist that works for the state. Hum medical school, or a class or two? I don't think it's hard to choose. The doctor wins my vote... The dentist can wait.

Vacation

I'm so excited to have a break from work. Not so much a vacation, but just a break. Can't afford a go away vacation, but Kari and I are going to do things to get to know Central Florida better. We are going to go to Downtown Disney, maybe visit the beach, not that we are going to swim, but still. I need to do more things in this beautiful area. Right now all I do is work and go home, maybe shop, but nothing more. So I'm going to look at the Central Florida visitors brochure and get some ideas. Lets see how we do... more to come.

Stupid People!!!!

I have never been a fan of stupid people. But today takes the cake. My uncle's brother is a habitual drunk, but doesn't see it. He's fallen two times today and wanted me to pick him up. But him being 6ft and me 5ft, I'm not quite big enough. So I had to call 911 twice. The second time he shit his pants. A 58 year old man shit his pants because he can't get himself up off the floor. I thought I was going to throw up because he smelled so bad. I don't know when the last time he has taken a shower.

I'm glad that my daughter was in bed both times that he fell. He'd really hurt her if he fell on her. He almost hit his head on a book shelf. I really wish that his mom would put her foot down, but he rules the roost. He gets what he wants too. When he's drunk he needs to sit his ass down and stay put, or use his cane and or walker. I don't know what I'm going to do.
