How are you?

[ilovemyglo]

I just really wondered how everyone is doing?
Things are good here, but just a "hey, I am bored at work cause my promotion doesn't start til they get a replacement for my position so I am stuck with not much to do!". Anyway, just the same old! Still with Mike, still having my ex calling me asking me to come over and hang out, still loving the family and friends! My best friend, Eric Luckett, got back from IRAQ about two months ago so we are spending way too much time together, but I missed him! He is moving back to Bowling Green to finish his degree because if he transferred here he would have to go back to a Sophomore status instead of Senior! Other than that.... I wish my mom was taking better care of her diabetes! Hopefully her next doctors visit will help! My dad is having a hard time dealing with the death of his brother, yesterday he got the insurance check so he has to go next week to meet with the lawyer about setting up a trust fund for his brother's son. I meet with my lawyer about my settlement from my accident- FROM JAN 02!!! Three surgeries and 12 months of physical therapy, delaying my graduation (albeit only til the summer!)- I wonder how much that is worth?
Oh, and I am taking the LSAT's soon!!! I am scoring between 155-170 on the practice ones, so hopefully I will do as well on the real thing!

Okay, now spill- what's up?

This is a hard one.

I guess things are good. No major trama in my life right now.
Starting to feel like an old maid. Good friends are getting married, another couple got engaged, most all the girls I meet are married. And I don't get out to meet a lot of people because I am a single mom, so there hasn't been much dating recently. I am usually very optimistic, but lately feel like I am going to be 40 and single. Not the worst thing in the world, but if I turn 40 without having at least one relationship it might get ugly . I have got nine years to work on this.
Kaitlyn has her first skating competition this weekend. (She is only five). It is going to be so cute. She skates to "You are my sunshine". I just need to find her the perfect dress. Shopping!
The guy I spent the most time with in New Orleans never called. But I am not surprised. Just dissapointed.
On the upside I have been working at keeping my diet low carb. I lost five pounds the first month, and nine the second. It is going really slow, I have a long way to go, but I am encouraged by my results so far.
I think that about sums it up.

Okay, who is next?

ooh ooh me over here!


Hmm, well everyone here knows I'm having another baby yippee yay! Nov 14th I find out if its a legacy or not *crosses fingers* this is my last chance, I need a little girl! but I will be perfectly happy with a little boy. My hubby is gone 24/7 now. He passed his Paramedic school final with a 97 and has started his ambulance ride outs with a very very busy Dallas station in a NOT good part of town, so I freak out everytime he goes to work. He starts back to regular firefighter duty in October and I can't wait - less stress and more $$$. We are in the middle of building a house and everyday there is new crisis - the marble people can't get the tubs we want, or the floor guys are going to be 2 months away, then the mortgage company says we can't have insurance until January regardless if the house is done sooner - AAAGGGGHHH!!! If a marriage can survive this it can survive anything. My little guy is turning 1 on Oct. 18th so I've also been running around trying to get his birthday stuff together. I can't believe its been a year! I'm starting to feel oh so old. My Mother in Law is threatening a visit Friday. Oh just can't wait....blah I swear this woman needs to get a job. She will just come here, sit on my couch and bitch about people I don't know - meanwhile smoking like a chimney around my little boy and my little fetus. Yeah I don't think so. OOOOO that woman urks me.


Other than that, I'm feeling pretty crappy. I'm 4 days away from starting my 2nd trimester and I feel like a cow. My back hurts, my head hurts, my feet hurt, my pelvis hurts - I'm falling apart. Right now I'm watching Noah terrorize my poor little cats.

ok NEXT!

not bad - not bad - i'm healthy!

other than that --->

school started back up less than a month ago so i'm feeling like a chicken with my head cut off. i've got a ton of research to do, 4 classes, a ton of student organizations, i'm president of one, and i still need to take the GRE's. pray for me when i start applying to grad school!

as y'all know - i got married this summer! and as we're settling into a routine, everything is good for us. we've got a house that we're slowly but surely adding stuff to and our dogs are great. sometimes though i feel as if we never see each other - he works 1st shift and i work 2nd shift and we get to see each other somewhere in between.

i recently took over the VPO advisor position for Theta Iota (WKU) which makes me really happy. I've been feeling bummed about not being able to get involved as much but now i can. I'm also trying to make it to more of the Nashville Alumnae activities and i'd like to get my mother AI'd into Alpha Gam! ooh ooh ooh - there's also a second Alpha Gam at Austin Peay now and we're gonna have shirts made together.

work sucks! i used to love my job and i still love working with children, i just hate my coworkers. ehhhhhhhhh... i can't bring myself to be punitive and disliked by all of the residents in order to be effective. factor into that - my supervisor is pretty much abusive! i don't think i've ever been yelled at so much in my entire life - i seriously think that she's got mental issues. i've started placing applications at other facilities and even other career fields - hopefully i'll get a call back about the asst. mgr. position at the new movie theatre opening up (even though i don't have any theatre experience.

i think i'm in one of those stages in my life where i'm not quite sure what to do with myself - i'm not quite "adultish" but i'm definetely not a typical college student (i work 40+ hours, i'm married, etc.). i figure that it will all work itself out eventually though - well back to the class that i've been ignoring -

I am job hunting. Graduated from nursing school. Applied for an RN position in the department where I had been working. She yanked me around for 2 weeks before telling me that she filled the position before I applied but it didn't get taken down. I had no more hours scheduled, so I didn't go back. It's been 3 weeks on the job search. I've had offers, but one would put me supervising LPNs in an ICU setting. I wasn't comfortable with that so I turned it down.

I have been working hard - we have a set of plans that are going out for advertising, so things have been hectic. And we have a monthly meeting tomorrow morning! Several family members have birthdays this week. Married life is great. We are getting into our routine. And also planning our vacation next summer! It is such a great thought to have a paid vacation. We have been going to soccer and football games. It is still warm outside - which is a major plus because I hate winter! I have started to play golf - its fun, but harder than what I thought!
