They always watch over us

One of my biggest paranias is our car. I have a mjor fear of it breaking down.
The back passenger tire keeps going low and freaking me out about chirs driving it all over so today i decided we needed new one. We dont have much money but it had to be done.
I rememberd Papa ED talking about marion tire and i taken my old car there a long time ago.
Chris dropped papas name and the guy gave him a discount because i was his grandaughter. about $50 and thats alot these days!

Will always love you Papa.

Job hunt frustrations

So i have been job hunting continusaly since about may now and still nothing. I have 4 interviews that go nowhere and im getting so frustrated!
The replys i get in mail and email are all the same either its i havnt worked in 3 years so dont have experience or that i only have hair as a background.

The orginal plan of going to phloboblmy school didnt work since they dont have aid for a 5 week program and need $1000 up front. Hopefully i will be able to use tax money for the May session so i can at least get a new carreer.

I cant help but feel like a loser with all this crap. Chris works 2 jobs and is very burn out and takes it out on us. The problem is that he makes way more workng his part time job even 12 hours week than  i ever did doing hair.

We havnt been arguring as much lastly so thats good. i think he does see that im trying to find something but still have standerds. I wont do gas station or fast food unless we get down to absolute desperation.


Thankfully i have my dad who helps us out when he can/

I have to keep telling myself that Im not getting a job now because i am meant for more, that something perfect is going to come across me and i will love it and be happy again.

Whats in a name?

I have decided to start using my talents of sewing and creativity and try to make some extra money.
I am very exctied to take Jack on his first plane ride to Oklahamoa in May so it got me thinking about fun stuff to keep him busy on the plane. 
I looked around for stuff and its all pretty expensive but after searching and thinking i have found a few things that look fun so i made them myself. 
I still need to do some tweaking in the desgins but i like them so far. Everything will be made out of old clothes, crib sheets, random material in my house so cost effective. 


Jack calls these garages
Garages folded up ready to go
I pod nano case to hold headphones.
Crayon wallet!

Fun times

Tonight was the My Omaha Mommies 4th birthday party.
Tons of fun. I won the award for " most likely to have a reality t.v. show" im not sure if there telling me im  a drama queen or just have a really interesting life. But hey if is a contest im gonna take some bitches out. Random i know, i have been watching Bridal Plasty about Brides that get plastic surgery and a dream wedding if they win.
I also won a 10 person dinner at Cheeseburger in Paradise. We have never been there but i think it would fun, hard to narrow it down to just 10 people though.
Its nice to be around supportive moms who im sure are sick of my bitching about monster boy and husband but sometimes you really just have to get it out somehow.
I love going on the playdates and have become very close to a few of the moms which is great for Jack too.
