Man what a day
Holy crap this Saturday class is something else. It's bad enough I hardly get what the fuck is being taught, but the professor is just WOW!!!! I have no words for this man. He really is just out there. But I've been told the way to pass him is to do his work and to try and befriend him. If I can do both he will up my grade no matter how I do. So befriend him I'm gonna, and I think I might have started. Today he asked about the pet food recall and what brands where on the list. Well, lucky me I had printed a copy of that list on Thursday and left it in my bag. So I gave it to him to keep. I think the dog food he just got is on the list. And he was talking to me a bit during the break today. So woohoo, ya I gotta play a bit of the kiss ass but fuck I need all the help I can get in this class. Especially after missing last week, I missed an important class with lots of important notes I need to find a way to get.
But crap did todays class give me a freaking headache. After that I had to go to FedEx/Kinkos to make copies of my book for my classmate. Since we are taking two classes together and we are cool we're book sharing. Spent like 30 bucks on copies, well, she did I didn't. But it's still cheaper than buying the book at the bookstore.
Another thing not helping out the past few days are these damn cramps I'm getting. OMG they are painful, I might just pop one of my script pain pills to help. I'm saving them for my afs but this hurts almost as bad.
Grrr I need to buy a new mouse also. This one is on it's last licks. IT was bad enough that Kev broke it more that it was messed up, but now the cord is pretty shot too. I had a hard enough time locating the driver required to re install the damn thing. I lost the driver when I tried to see if Kevs new wireless mouse was working or not. It messed up both our laptops. This man better get me my mouse fast.
On a good note T's bunk futon bed is now up in her room. It gives her more space in there, plus it gives Doni her own bed to sleep in. So this should end the complaints I get about their sleeping arrangements. If it doesn't so help those girls cause I will hurt em.
Well it's getting late and I want to relax. So that's all for now.

Sad day for me today
Well not that sad because I kinda already had an idea this was an issue, but now it has been confirmed. After going to the allergist today and being in there for four, yes four fucking hours! It has been confirmed that I'm allergic to cats, dust, and tree pollen. And of course I have two cats that I now need to get rid off. I was planning on getting rid of the boy because he's become to unruly, but I love my Sandy and I didn't plan on getting rid of her. She's my fluff ball. I got her for mother's day the year before I got pg with Kev. She was my baby fever fix. When I saw her in the pet shop she just looked so pretty and tiny. And once I held her she felt like a ball of cotton and I knew she was meant to be mine. So Kev got her for me and I was in love with a cat for the first time ever. Gradually she attached herself to Tiana, so she's really become a part of the family that we all loved. Smokey I had gotten to satisfy Kevs need for his own cat, but he turned out to be more than we can handle. The straw that broke my back was the scratch he gave lil Kev in the face. But the finally straw that broke big Kevs back is the fact that we have had to purchase a brand new bed for T thanks to the piss stain and smell he left on her freaking mattress!
But man on man the allergist is not fun. I managed to get stuck 41 freaking times today alone. First they did the scratch test on my arms. So each arm got 16 damn scratches, then off to the lab for two viles of blood to be taken. After the scratch test showed that I had no reaction, the doctor decided to play it safe and do some sort of other test that required 8 more needle punctures under the skin on the top of my left arm. And OMG it was horrible all of it. The scratch tests hurt more than the freaking first four needles. But the last four hurt because it hit the fleshy area of my arm. All and all it was a choice she made because I do have allergies. I have to go back in 2 weeks and if my lab work comes back good she wants to do allergy shots. I'm a bit nervous about those but hey it's either that or suffer with repeat sinus infections or an asthma attack due to the pollen coming fairly soon.
Well, I have some steak marinating that I have to put on the grill so that's all folks.

The Day of Rest
So it's Sunday and it's been a nice and quiet one. Just how I like it. This morning I went to get my bi-weekly pampering and it felt great. I did get the girl that gives the pedicures to fast, but at least her paint jobs make up for the speediness. I'm totally in love with the color I picked for my nails, I so have to go buy a bottle. It's called Sands of Time by Maybeline. Some one must have left it behind after getting their nails done.
UGHHH I'm so tired of the snow and ice already. You can hardly walk out there with all the damn icy snow on the ground. I almost busted my ass going down my own front steps. The snow and ice fell off our awning and all over our steps. NICE!!!!!! And then with the temps going up and down the snow melts and more ice begins to form. It's going to be a mess for a few days until the sun melts this whole mess away. At least the snow will make sure our upstate rivers are full. Gotta try and look at the bright side of things right?
I did my math homework earlier too, so I got that out of the way. I tried to do my law work but I was a bit confused on it. I'll have to ask my professor what exactly she wants so that I can do it correctly. It's not that hard really but the explanation isn't crystal clear and I hate doing things half assed. Especially in law, after all this is the field I plan to make my career in.
Tonight I'm making Crockpot chicken tacos. They taste so yummy that way and it's the easiest meal to make. Just mix chicken broth, taco seasonings and chicken cutlet in the pot cook on high for 2-3 hours and shred. How much easier can it get?
Well, I better get going and check on the lil dude. He's throwing a screaming fit and I'm willing to bet it's over his mega blocks!

Snowed in Saturday
So I woke up to a good amount of frozen snow out there this morning. Needless to say I skipped class because of it. They didn't even plow the street, there is no way I'm taking mass transit to school today. Those buses can lose traction easy. I'm not going to risk that. I highly doubt many people went today anyway. I spoke to Rebeena and she said that the school streets for parking were dead. And they are never that way unless there are no classes. So I'm sure not may showed, maybe even the professor himself.
Since it's so cold and icy out I'm gonna crock pot a good chicken wings in honey sauce meal. I guess I'll make some rice to go with that. I can just imagine how good that will taste later. Man I must admit it feels good to just be home right now not running around. Kev is napping, T watching TV, and Big Kev went to the market to get the food for later. Myself, I'm just pogo'n it up today. I should and will do my homework later on. It's not much but I want to get it out the way.
Shame the weather messed up the parade for people, but the actual city didn't get much snow so I guess it wasn't too ruined. That's one thing I hate about the difference between Queens and Manhattan. They almost never get a good accumulation of snow so the rest of the boroughs get ignored. But oh well what can I do about that really. Not much to do but move out of NYC one day. I hope to achieve that sooner rather than later.

Friday yet again
Oh how I love Fridays, it's just a shame that I have class tomorrow. But I think I might skip it. We got hit with one hell of a snow/hail storm today and it's not going to let up any time soon. It will probably still be hailing in the morning and I don't think I want to travel in that crap. I'll wait it out and see how it goes. I should go it's accounting class and it's only my second class.
Today was payday, YAY. I worked my ass off for the past 15 days I deserved that nice check. Shame I had to give it ALL to daycare though. But it's OK I got my transit metro card from them so I don't have to buy one, which means the money in my pocket is my own. But they did forget to take it out of me pre taxed money so I'll have to give that back later on. I didn't want to say anything today about it. But I will on Monday. I know bad me but I wasn't in the mood to go into all of that. It's not my fault they forgot to take that out.
Also all that hard work paid off because the co-op board was very happy with my spread sheet. They just wanted to know a small amount of information more that took me less than a few minutes to do. I still have to make some more copies but all and all it's over with for now. I wonder what other work they are going to throw at me. I hope it keeps me busy but not too busy. lol
I so feel like going out on a date with Kevin this weekend, but with no sitter and me not trusting MIL that's just not going to happen. I'll just have to settle for drinking some wine getting tipsy and hopefully getting taken advantage of later. LOL I just want to relax this weekend but that won't happen either. I will however, get my nails done so that is relaxing in it's own way.
Well time to watch All My Children and drink my glass of wine.
Have a Happy Saint Patrick's Day everyone.

Sunday Morning
Ahh gotta love a good Sunday morning where you can just chill out and relax. Ya we lost an hour of sleep, but I'm not feeling it so it's all good. Everyone woke up in a pleasant mood and brunch is about to be served. Later on the kids and myself will go wish Uncle Al a happy birthday. The weather is beautiful so I know the kids will have fun playing in the yard today. I plan to take some pictures, so keep an eye out for them. And if you don't see them make sure to get on my ass to post them. LMAO I'm horrible at that shit.
Yesterday was my first day of accounting class and OMG the professor is a flat out asshole. He came in late and straight up told us, he doesn't like to be jerked around, he's moody and we just have to deal with it, and he's short tempered. Nice way to start off a long ass 6 freaking hour class! I swear like half the class looked and we all had our "time to drop the class" up. But I'm not alone in this long ass class, I do have companionship, so I'm good. I can tough this out and I won't let a professor scare me. I'm too grown for that shit.
The only down side to this weekend so far is that I'm having cramps for a tmi situation that I will spare the eyes from.

WOW what a week
Damn this has been on hell of a long ass week. I got a taste of just how busy I'm going to be, and HOLY SHIT! it's hella busy. I had my classes this week so I don't get home to after 8 2 nights a week, and after 7 for one of them. The other two I get home around my normal time, but not this week cuz I've been working a boat load too. But hey more hours equals more money so I'm not complaining. I put in 32 hours just this week alone, and I'm a part time worker. But the pay will be nice and make up for the lack of pay I got on my last check. Tomorrow will be one long ass day too, I have class from 9 to about 4 or so. At least my friend is in that class with me too, so it won't feel so long I hope. It's cool we are taking two classes together this semester.
So far I'm not a fan of my math class, but I do like my legal research class. I know I won't be a fan of tomorrows class either since it's accounting. Did I mention how much I HATE math! And I'm so lucky to be taking two kinds of math classes. I'll be having night mares with numbers this semester. I just hope it won't be so bad or feel to long.
On a good note I got all that work done that I had to get done on time. WOOHOO!!!!!! Now I just have to do a spread sheet for the stuff and it's good to go. But the biggest part was done and the project manager was happy and pleased with the work. He told the big guy earlier that I'm doing a wonderful job so far. That felt awesome to hear, it put my mind at ease as far as my job goes. I was worried because I had to take time off already because Kev was sick. But they seem like a very understanding company when it comes to children, so that's good.
Well that's enough from me, lil man is driving daddy up the wall, not that I mind. LOL

Day 1 of the spring semester and did I feel dumb!
OMG I'm pissed at myself for forgetting everything I learned just last semester. This is why I just can't stand math, I just learned this stuff not even six months ago!!!! But yet I could only answer 2 out of 15 questions and even then I think I got them wrong. Thankfully this doesn't count it's just an assessment of where her students are at. Damn I hope I can pick this up fast again. She seems like a cool professor so far. There is just one thing I don't like about her class work. She wants 6 journal entries about what we learned and give examples.
I picked up my books too and OMG thank the heavens I get a book voucher for that stuff. For just 3 books that came to almost 300 bucks! Can we say SHOCKED!!!! I mean I know they cost money but damn! That's a whole lot of money. If this had to come out of my pocket I'd be damn broke. I went to the ECLC and filled out another intent to return form for Kev. This holds his spot if he goes back in the summer or fall.
Well, it's time to eat and then watch my favorite shows for Monday.

My last night of sanity
Well my weekend went as planned so I can't complain. Only one thing didn't get done and that was laundry, but I hate doing that anyway. But I got my hair cut, nails done, and a pedicure that felt like heaven. I feel like a new woman and I'm loving it.
Last night was a good night too. Has some great quality time with Kev, and it was so needed. I'm actually looking forward to some more tonight. I know things are going to get crazy so I have to make the most of what we got now.
I hope things go smoothly tomorrow. It will be one hell of a long day, up by 6 am at work by 9, work till 2, class at 330 there till 530, pick up Kev, come home and cook, get things ready for class on Tuesday to then do it all over again. But I'll be in school till 730 ugh! But it's for an important law class so it should be interesting.
