Hi everyone! Still have not heard anything but I started applying at lots of other places. Lit a fire in me to try to get out of the house. I know it will help me mentally AND physically. I read everything that you all said BUT, I am under the influence right now (painkillers) and I can not remember what everyone said! Sad, huh? Well, this did not help...we went to the grocery store and i was listening to macy with my head turned and I rammed my knee into a trailer hitch on a truck. Needless to say...it hurt like the dickens.... Have a great night everyone! :smile2: Jen-thinking of you sista!

HAHA...and I did not even see this. Great minds think alike!

I wish I weighed what our page number is....(random thoughts go through my mind like this all the time....)

still no news.....ugh. BUT i am still optimistic!

I have never driven from here to Dallas. Angela, what is it...about 3 or 4 hours?

OK, so here I am already. I went into the temp agency and she did the paperwork she needed to get me started. She said that she would turn it in to the TWO different jobs that need me and would let me know when they want me to interview. SO, basically I sit and wait for my phone to ring. I am going to bow my head for a word of prayer....

Thanks ladies! I am so excited/nervous. I have not gotten up to the sound of an alarm clock (for somewhere I need to be) in over 2 years! Kind of liked it. Sounds corny, but true. I hope the pain pills & muscle relaxers I have to take every once in a while does not hurt my chances. OMG...I am being so paranoid... So...I am gonna dash over to FB, play my slots, have my coffee then finish getting dressed. Thanks for the good vibes. I will post when I get home! Keep the prayers going today!!

Cindy-that is a beautiful school! I can see why it will take a long time to renovate! I feel so bad for the kids though! OK guys, so I am seriously jittery about tomorrow. I am taking this one step at a time because if I dont it is a bit overwhelming. Today my mom came to town and she and I went clothes shopping because I had ZERO nice clothes. We hit paydirt at Palais Royal. I bought a really pretty skirt & blouse that I will wear tomorrow. And I got a few more blouses. When I find out what the dress code is at the job site is, then I will go get more clothes. PLEASE GOD let it be jeans!! If it is jeans, I have it covered, if not, then I HAVE to go buy more clothes. I have someone to watch macy for me tomorrow but if I get the job (even if it is just temp) I have to find a daycare that can keep her as well as pick up at her school starting next week. I am getting mixed signals from dh about the job. Part of him wants me to stay at home but he sees how excited it makes me so the other part of him is happy for me. Whew, so many emotions, so much to think about. Like I said, I will take it one thing at a time. It is just hard for me to believe I have to set an alarm for something in the morning! Have a great night everyone! I will post in the morning while I am getting ready for the interview/work. :cursing:

Angela-it was great to see you too! We seriously need to go have coffee (or a drink) and re-catch up! You look wonderful....i am jealous of ya sexy mama! Did you get my text? Did you have any luck finding ds any shoes? My WORD....that is a big ole foot! Bethany-I am so sorry you are in a funk. We are here for you. If anyone knows the pain you are going through, it is me. I have regained all of my weight so I know what you are feeling. Just know that those feelings will go away and you will feel better about yourself. It is a long road but hang in here with us and we can help each other through it, k? Everyone-strange thing happened yesterday. I got a call about 4:15 and it was a lady that had seen my resume online. (i had posted it about 3 or 4 months ago I guess). She was with a staffing agency and she has a position open and she said my resume looks like exactly what they need. Frank and I had been joking around recently and I said, "well, ya know, I guess I should start looking for work again because someone is not just gonna walk up and ring the doorbell". Wow, I was close, she called instead of ringing the doorbell! I believe in fate and things are meant to happen. So, I told her I would be there Monday mornng for the interview. Wish me luck! The starting pay is only a dollar less an hour than what I made before and I worked there for 18 years to get that much! lol Now I get to worry about what the heck I am gonna wear! I have to go buy something. I hope the boss is not prejudice against fat people. Oh well, I know what a good employee I would be and if whoever it is can not see past the physical part, I am better off not working there. I will post again later. Have a great weekend everyone!

Cindy-that is totally unacceptable. Seems like something could be done. A brand new school could be built faster than in 2 years! That is really horrible. I feel bad for your son. :thumbup:

Awwww, she said thank you!

Michelle-I had issues like that when we moved and I had free stuff on craigslist. People amaze me! lol Angela-so glad you slept better. I had to LOL @ your flat pillow. Mine is flat as a pancake....and if I had to get a new one I would never be able to sleep again! This time 7 years ago I was in labor. I love reliving it in my mind. I would give anything to do it again but God saw fit for me to have just one....so I am fine with it. She is more than I ever expected anyway. I know it sounds crazy but I wish she would have been twins. Twins NOW, not twins when she was a baby. LOL Have a great day ladies!

hmm, i learn something new every day! So today I learned this AND that today is National Smores Day!

Cindy-every time I read a post of yours talking about your job and students, I love you more! How many teachers/people would really want to learn another language for their job?! I admire that about you! The summer flew by didnt it? What movie? I did not know you lived in LA?! When and for how long and what made you move? Everyone-well, macy is all registered. Her meet-the-teacher night is Thursday. She is excited. All of her school supplies are bought as well. I just LOVE that the schools sell them now. Sure makes life easier AND i know she is getting the correct supplies she needs...not to mention to fighting the people in the stores!! Still need to shop for school clothes but that is doable. I wonder when the tax free weekend is? I will shopthe following Monday, LOL. It is worth it to me to just pay the tax and not deal with the idiots. :tongue: Have a great rest of the day everyone. Michelle-are you present and accounted for?

lol Suzanne

Suzanne-Awww LOVE the pics! Macy would have been in heaven. She is crazy over butterflies! Cindy-when does school start for ya'll? Seems like summer flew by! Ours starts the 23rd. I have to go register macy tomorrow. SO much paperwork...like buying a house! Kat-I know you are having fun... Angela-are you ok? I have been thinking alot about ya lately. how is the family thing going? How is work? How are YOU? Terri-how is the band going? Still losing? Most people refer to the first month of the surgery as hell month but I did not find it that bad. I was not hungry hardly at all. I hope that is still the case for you! Jen-what ya doing mama? Have you talked to George lately? I am feeling a little woozy this morning. I have done so well the past few days with NO antidepressant that I do not want to take part of one again but I will if it will get rid of this dizziness. I hope all of you have a great day. I need to get some school shopping done. YUCK!

The party was fantastic! Her cake was BEAUTIFUL. We had a photo of The Titanic with Jack & Rose on it. Absolutely beautiful and tasted GREAT! (not that I ate much, lol) I am SO tired....I will write more in the morning! Sweet dreams all... :party:

Macys party is in about an hour.....wish me luck!!

If I disappear, you may wanna check out this news link to see if I have been arrested for manslaughter on my neighbor. lol Click 2 Houston | Houston News, Houston, Texas News, Weather, Sports | KPRC Local 2

Michelle-aren't moms the best?

Good morning all~ Terri-congrats on the -25. :redface: That is awesome! Suzanne-no no no, do not push yourself! I want to come your way too to see you janie and Tracy. Jenn-and you have been knowing he is a loser, so why do you sound surprised? lol MEN! When is the Zac Brown concert? I am WAY tired of the chick that lives upstairs. She stomps and stomps and STOMPS. It HAS to be on purpose. Once again she kept me up all night. She must NEVER sleep....EVER. The layout of her apartment is like ours and it sounds like she jumps off her bed all night long. SO.....it is about 8 AM, it is nice and quiet upstairs...and I have a broom and I am giving my ceiling HELL with a broom handle. Sometimes I switch to a hammer :eek: I have seriously had it....can you tell? lol I am doing the banging in about 10 minute intervals and I will KEEP doing it until I wake her and her child. Tracy + sleep deprivation = b*tch. lol It would be different if I thought it was not being done purposely, but I know that it is....so.... On the upside, Saturday our apartments is having a drawing for 6 free months of rent. They are having it the exact same day & time as macys party. Boy i wish I could be here for it! That would be SWEET! Have a great day ladies. Keep your fingers crossed that I get a nap later!

*i wish suzanne was still coming my way*

Cindy-good looking dentists are always a PLUS I am so sorry that you are having to go through all those expenses! I know that sucks! Kat-omg, I hope you feel better quickly! I am so jealous! Have fun and I will be there with you in spirit! Everyone-Yesterday was my heart dr appt. He is sending me a thingy to wear for 21 days. ugh...but I will do what I have to do. They did a heart echo (sp?) and an EKG and I go back in a month to see how things are. Angela-I am sorry that you are in a funk. (((hugs))) Let me know if I can help...even if it is just an ear! Jennifer-dsd just turned 16 as well. She cam e to spend the night last night. Havent seen her since March. I was really happy to see her. Funny how kids can trample on our hearts and we still love 'em. lol Suzanne-first brow waxing? fun right? Michelle-so are you relieved that you are not working at BK anymore? I'll bet you cant sleep at night because you miss it so much! lol Oh well....I am gonna get off here. Been in a strange mood past few days. Roller coaster of emotions. Funny, I am ready to diet but I cant because I need to weigh in at my dr office?! what is a girl to do? .....

I had to postpone the one for last month because of the move. I hope it is good news!

Tomorrow is my first appointment with my heart dr to see if there is anything wrong with the old ticker. Wish me luck! I can not wait for the whole 'you need to lose weight' speech!! I hope I don't accidentally say something like "no shit". :blushing:
