Well, this is the last day of my vacation. I enjoyed everyday that I had off especially the time i spent with my kids.
Rob and I woke up christmas morning and it was freaking cold in the house. I mean cold! So pretty much stayed under the covers. My Dad kept asking if I was going to get up. I told I am up Im up, I'm just not getting out of bed. It was too cold. And besides, it was christmas day everything was closed so there was nothing to but stay in bed and watch tv all day. So I did. It took all day for the house to finally warm up. We watched the American Chopper series on The Discovery Channel all day.

don't we all just love the winter!?
Well, the snowfall started yesterday afternoon and didn't let up until sometime early this morning. We ended up with 12 inches of snow/sleet/freezing rain combination. And if that wasn't bad enough, which actually wasn't that bad, it was a beautiful sight. Anyways, the electricity went out at 1 am this morning. Good thing I like candles as much as I do, so we had some on hand. My dad did have a nice oil lamp also, which puts out some pretty amazing light to wrap christmas presents with. That is what we ended up doing in the oil lamp light until about 4 am. We did consider ourselves lucky since we heat with an oil stove. So we kept fairly warm. I do mean fairly. We made coffee on top of the oil stove and then I put some frozen waffles on it for the kids to eat. The electric was restored around 11:30 this morning. We were all so excited. ITs amazing how something can affect your whole life. Electricity.
We did let the kids go ahead and open the presents. They like everything they got, which i knew they would. Which reminds me.....we got the package from my sister wednesday morning. It was a welcome knock early in the morning from the postal dude.
And now a few words from my youngest son......,
I got a juice box today. It came with little videos. I have TMNT, Dexters laboratory, and Winxs Clue. I watched TMNT today,and I don't like Winxs Clue which I think is for girls, and I hate girl chinzo actions.

Its a MIRACLE!!!
My sister in Ky did exactly what she said she was going to do! I can't believe it!! I'm still in amazement!! I don't know what got into her to get it done but she did! She deserves something special for her special efforts! A nice slap on the back! SMACK!! There ya go sis, job well done.
This amazing thing that she has done. Well, she sent off a christmas package on the day she said she was going to! The guy at the post office even guaranteed that it would get her by Thursday. Well shall see if this comes to pass. (not holding my breath, but hoping anyways).
My daughter has a cold which she has given to her younger brother and myself. I think hubby is getting it too! You know when you wake up with the scratchy throat, stuffy nose, and then the dry coughing starts. I figured I would end up with a cold eventually but it still sucks to be sick. At least I didn't get bronchitis this year...knock on wood.

A whole lot of people....
It was a busy day yesterday Im glad its over.....
The kids and I are putting up our little 4ft. xmas tree tonight. It will be fun. My sister is supposed to be sending us a package today. Now whether she gets it sent or not thats a different story. She procrastinates really bad. We shall see if it gets here by thursday.
In other news, the district manager from where I work called and was asking me about something that happened at work tuesday night. I couldn't really tell him anything because once I leave work, I pretty much forget what happens there. Especially if it doesn't or didn't have anything to do with me personally. If I could've remembered I so would have told him what he needed to know, but I couldn't so I didn't.

something else.....
Well, I have decided that I have been posting too many pictures. See that is what happens when you get a new toy and you go crazy with it. I really like having a phone with a camera. I've been taking pictures of my kids and they like it too. I pick them up tomorrow at 4 pm. I get to keep them for a whole week. I get to be a mommie again. I miss it. All of it. I miss them needing things from me. Cooking, cleaning, washing their clothes, being able to fix my daughters hair. When she was younger, she is 12 now, she didnt like her hair being up or in barettes. But now she loves it. And my boys, well they are boys. They started basketball last weekend. They played football over the summer. My oldest boy Isaac, loved it but Elijah well he could've played or not. Elijah is a laid back kind of personality. He goes with the flow. I've been lucky to be blessed with 3 GREAT kids. And I must think that i've had something to do with that. Didn't I? I was raising them for the most part up until 2 years ago. And I must say that their Dad has done a good job. There are things I would like it if he took more part in but he works and does a lot for them. My ex and I get along really well now that we aren't together. We can talk on the phone for awhile its kind of weird. But its all good. What is best for the kids we will do. We have to, we are their parents who else is going to do it?
I want to continue this but I have to get ready for work......

winter is here......
Yes, winter is here. Its snowing outside and its beautiful. I like wintertime. The air is so crisp and fresh. I know its cold too but...... its nice.
I was thinking last night about my internal happiness and I realized this. That I am happy. WE don't have much but we have want we need. Im working a nice job and Im seeing my kids a lot more than I was able to while living in Kentucky. That was all I needed. To be able to see my kids more hence the move back to Ohio. I don't know why we didn't do it sooner. That is what I just can't figure out. Maybe someday but Im not going to dwell on it or at least try not to.
song playing Staind Zoe Jane.........
I really enjoy my music.

listening to music
There is times when I just want to sit and really listen to certain music. Its the kind of music, it has a soft touch, a light breeze, and very emotional. It digs to your very core and releases those emotions inside of you that you didn't think you had or even existed. Its rhythm and soft crescendos glides across mind and and absorbs its very notes into your being. You begin to sense the tingling and you close your eyes and begin to soar upon enchanted wings across the green fertile lands of home. The soft scent of wet earth upon your breath. You begin to feel things once again. You can find the group I was listening to as I wrote this here. I love their music, i think its just captivating and surreal. Excellent.
after a small holiday
good evening all!
I took a small holiday from my blog. Obviously, not entirely though. Now that I have figured out how to post pictures from my phone to the blog. It was kind of an act of great achievement of the grandest degree.
listening to Def Leppard Pour some sugar on me.........................................................................
and now Im back after a short time delay inside me head........
I had to get a bite to eat and something to drink....A Nathans hot dog, on a bun and a coke.
I'm listening to my Launchcast Plus station on Yahoo. I would have to say I enjoy having the station. I get to chose the music I listen to by rating different, songs, artists, and albums, even genres. I think its really cool. And if you upgrade to the Plus, which I've been a member for almost 2 years now....I think it was really worth the $35 a year. Yeah a year, thats it. I don't think thats not a bad payout for all that you get. Maybe you should just check out mine to get an example of what your missing:-) this is it here.

Its a small world....
It is a small world.....
Last night at work someone can in to eat that I haven't seen since 1990. It was my old Attendance office worker from High school. It was weird.
I got my phone out at work last night and took some pictures. IT was funny.
There is also a new guy that started last week that runs the grill, well i don't trust him as far as i could throw him, and he is a big boy so not throwing him very far. So from nowon, Im keeping my purse in the managers office. Just something about this guy that just rubs me the wrong way. I know i really don't him all that much but my intuition is telling me something. So for now I will be guarded.
Tomorrow is my youngest sons birthday. I can't wait. Im sure he can't either. His Dad is having a party for him tonight and I will either tomorrow night or saturday. We have a lot to do after I pick them up from their Dads tomorrow so we will see how things go.

Things are beginning to look a whole lot brighter...
Yes they are. Its sunday. Last night hubby and I went to a mall and walked around, we did get him a new jacket and some bigger gauge earrings. He looks good in both. Yes my hubby wears earrings. My ten year old son wants an earring too but he is going to have to wait until he is 18.
We also went to eat at the Olive Garden. It was very good. It had been awhile since we ate there. ITs kinda my fav restaurant. Their Chicken Fettucine Alfredo is my fav dish. And we always get Kalimari as an appetizer. They cooked it perfectly. Of course by the time we ate, salad and the appetizer it didn't take long for me to get full eating my main course. So we doggied bagged it home.
Before we went in to the restaurant I was talking to my ex about what the kids had on their christmas list. Boy this man can talk. Almost like he is starving for adult conversation. But then again he and I always were able to get along on the phone. That is how our relationship first started back in '89. But I am glad that we do get along. Very few divorced couples can get along or agree on anything. Also, he has been letting me get more than what I am supposed too. I was going to get them today but they are putting up their christmas stuff. I told him that was cool. Im sure the kids were looking forward to it.
We are going to have a christmas tree this year. We weren't able to have one last year. 2005 is going to be whole new year, I know i've said this before but I can't believe things are turning around for us. We both have decent paying jobs, we live with my dad so that makes paying bills a lot easier. Its just going to be fantastic.
The boys start basketball camp next weekend. My ten yr old quipped on thanksgiving weekend, that he wanted play basketball so he could turn pro and get rich. From the mouths of babes...what can I say? he is a great kid, all of mine are. and I love them dearly.

something found while surfing blogs...
I found something interesting on the web today while surfing blogs. I happened upon Lewismoten blog and he had posted a link to this interesting movie type thing. It was kinda cool.
I'm free! I'm free!!!
Well, I had to go to court today which sucked ass! And the judge was a f*ckin B*tch, the ex husband even said it too and if you knew him, you would know that is unlike him being the god-fearing man that he is. I've been having to go to court every 3 months for the last 2 years. Its just crazy! But things have turned around for me and mine in the last couple of months. So 2005 is going to be a whole new year. Its going to start off frest, clean slate if you will. I'm gonna make things happen and get some things done, final, over and out.

Out to Lunch
I'm going to lunch today with my Dad. It shall be interesting. He is funny. He has a dry sense of humor sprinkled with a touch of sarcasm. He is a great Dad though. I know I've done some things that have disappointed him but he never faltered with his love and support of me. He is my crutch. I know he will always be there.
Ok for those of you who don't know, I live with my biological Dad and the Dad I'm having lunch with is my adoptive Dad. From a legal standpoint though my adoptive Dad is my dad. I have had an interesting life to say the least. Maybe I should write a book or something about my life and maybe it would help others that led a similiar life to mine. Who knows?! It could happen.

It was just another day like any other. The sun was shining and it looked deceivingly warm outside. It wasn't! It was cold. The sun was nice and warm tho. Which was nice since it seems like it has been raining for the past week. The night sky looked calm and serene. The stars were sparkling and the moon was bright. There was some light dusting of clouds that seemed almost glowing. If it wasn't so cold I would be outside just staring at them. Speaking of staring, you should never look up at the sky looking at the stars and not watching where you are walking because eventually you will end up running into a riding lawn mower parked in the yard. This happened to me a couple of years ago. I walked right into it. Yeah Not funny. I didn't get hurt but it did make me realize something, Who leaves their riding lawn mower parked in the middle of the yard at night??! Well, I would have to say that my brother-in-law does! LOL

I'm sure it's no big surprise to you that your
romance is The Princess Bride. A heartwarming
tale of "Twue Wuve" that has giants,
Spainards and swashbuckling. You really do
think that love can overcome anything. You may
be a touch naive but your heart is certainly in
the right place. You've probably got one of
those relationships where proper nouns have
been replaced with "Snookums" and
"Pookie Pie". Eww. Beware a cuteness
overload.

aren't the holidays just grand!!!
Well, last weekend we went to kentucky. I didn't get to hang out with my friend Phyllis though. She and her boyfriend at the time went out of town. But there will be other weekends though. I did get to spend some time with my sister. But on the first day we were there she spent the whole day at the mall and she was concerned that when we got there saturday morning that we were going to sleep all day. Well I only slept until 12:30 cause she said she would be back at 1:30....she didnt get back until 7pm. But by then we had to be in paducah at 6 to pick up Rob's friend Sue Ann. After we picked her up we went to Los Amigos to eat dinner, then went to STeakn Shake to visit some friends and after that got some alcohol and drove around for awhile. IT was fun but it would've been alot more fun if Phyllis was in town...oh well, like I said, other weekends...
Early Wednesday I picked up my kids for the thanksgiving holiday. They are here now and its just great. They're funny and make me laugh....alot! The boys are watching "Spy Kids 3" and my daughter is taking a nap. Rob had to go to work again. He works tomorrow too.
We went to my sister Charlene's for dinner. It was pretty good and nice. IT was nice to be together on a holiday. It had been a long time since we did. Now we just have to find our baby sister and see exactly what is going on with her and why she hasn't tried to contact us in a couple of years.

the long road ahead
we are leaving for kentucky tonight....visiting some friends and family over the weekend and to get some more of our stuff that we left at my sisters house. It will be nice.
I was doing laundry tonight and while the washer was filling up with the last load, the fuse box started sparking. So my dad turned off the water, took out the fuse and proceeded to say that there is too much pulling on that box. Its very old. So now we don't have hot water anymore....at least not until the fuse box is replaced with a circuit breaker box. How suckie is that!?

another day in paradise....
It was a very nice night for the rain,
it came down in sheets and covered the road,
it quenched my thirst.
I started a channel on earthcam tv. http://tv.earthcam.com My channel is 777538, Stonish: Land of Make Believe. You can drop in for a visit and see if I am on. You can usually catch me on in the wee hourings of morning....I work 2nd shift so I am a night person. Have pretty much always been. Just something about the darkness that i like. ITs calm, mysterious, enchanting, but yet bright. I don't know...its just what I enjoy. One of many things actually. Rob and I celebrated 420 on the way home tonight from work. I just thought it would cool since we have a 40 minute drive home. Make the ride more enjoyable and boy! did it ever!! I'm telling you. We ended pulling off into someone's drive way and my hubby and I enjoyed a little of each other. IT was nice and awesome and felt amazingly good. We could actually make some noises and thats all I'm going to say about that.
I feel sad now that the rain has stopped,
The nighttime has cleared and
I thirst once again.
You are water. You're not really organic; you're
neither acidic nor basic, yet you're an acid
and a base at the same time. You're strong
willed and opinionated, but relaxed and ready

without you, everything would just not work.

I got this quiz from my good friend at http://www.cucucachoo.net
it came down in sheets and covered the road,
it quenched my thirst.
I started a channel on earthcam tv. http://tv.earthcam.com My channel is 777538, Stonish: Land of Make Believe. You can drop in for a visit and see if I am on. You can usually catch me on in the wee hourings of morning....I work 2nd shift so I am a night person. Have pretty much always been. Just something about the darkness that i like. ITs calm, mysterious, enchanting, but yet bright. I don't know...its just what I enjoy. One of many things actually. Rob and I celebrated 420 on the way home tonight from work. I just thought it would cool since we have a 40 minute drive home. Make the ride more enjoyable and boy! did it ever!! I'm telling you. We ended pulling off into someone's drive way and my hubby and I enjoyed a little of each other. IT was nice and awesome and felt amazingly good. We could actually make some noises and thats all I'm going to say about that.
I feel sad now that the rain has stopped,
The nighttime has cleared and
I thirst once again.
You are water. You're not really organic; you're
neither acidic nor basic, yet you're an acid
and a base at the same time. You're strong
willed and opinionated, but relaxed and ready
to flow. So while you often seem worthless,
without you, everything would just not work.
People should definitely drink more of you
every day.

Duhhhhh!!!
Well, something funny happened the night last night.....we get home from work and the phone says "check phone line". well we did....it was plugged in, but there is no dial tone. Well, hubby checks the line and its plugged in. He proceeds to get the number for the phone company, and hops in the car and drives to town to use the payphone and its like 130 in the morning. He gets back and they are going to send somebody out the next afternoon. Ok..at this point, Im a little frustrated because I can't get online and I need my fix.
Ok, we go to bed and get up like 1130 this morning (17th)....well hubby is checking the lines again, and he realizes he forgot to check the modem line, well the phone cord became disconnected from the modem so therefore dead phone. He hooked in back up and miraculously the phone worked. The phone guy showed up a few minutes after we got it back on, and the guy seemed to like the fact that the phone was working so he didn't have to do anything. And I couldn't get online and the phone worked the whole time. How crazy is that?!
I have one little thing i need to bitch about.....why can't men do dishes too?! Im pretty much speaking about my father whom we live with. I work nights 4 days a week, and every night we have come home, the dishes still haven't been done. We aren't even home to dirty the dishes, he does.....but I am sure I will learn to live with this....
I can't wait until we get to kentucky this weekend!!! YEah!

I think I have writers' block...
I can't think of anything to follow the sentence above...
OK, I started working the hello program (www.hello.com) It s a photo hosting website for blogs. That way you can post pictures and stuff inside the blog. Its pretty cool so far. i've already posted one....Im planning on working with the program a little this morning, and besides that, I am also in the process of cooking some chicken 'n dumplings. Yummy! If they are made right. I use biscuit mix for the dumlings and I put just salt, pepper, and sage in it. NO onions!!
Using the biscuit mix turns the broth in a creamy gravish sauce. Not just plain dumplings and broth..YUCK!
Ok, I was messing with the hello program, which lead me to download another program to access the hello program....what kind of shit is that?! I can upload pictures from my comp directly to the hello program, why do i need a another program to upload pictures to it, and then uploads the pictures to hello, and then on to my blog. And its got 71% to go!!! I'll be back.........

Its monday again!
Hello......i have 2 hours and 45 minutes until work....oh well.....at least im working and i get paid a decent wage.
Oh, I get to make thanksgiving dinner this year for me and mine. It will be nice to cook a big meal like I like to make. I will have my kiddies for 5 days too! They are actually out of school the whole week, but i need to work for at least 2 days before i get them...IT will be good to have them for all that time.
Here is another poem that I wrote....
a touch of spring.......
coldness of winter reaches.......everything.
the song of spring sweeps in quietly.
small annoucements, everyday.
swoosh of wind, drops of rain,
like sweat upon one's brow.....
the smell of anew brings to mind.....
new life....
springing forth.
crowding,
winter out the front door.

who can think of this?
Doing laundry sucks! That is what is on the agenda for today. Woohoo!! I'm so excited and I just can't hide it, im about to lose control and i think I like it!!!
Anyways, Yesterday we took the kiddies out to eat and to see Shrek 2. IT was funny!! The puss-in-boots character was hilarious. Might have to eventually get that on DVD. The kids enjoyed it also, but they did already see it but it was the only thing that was playing that the kids could see...so they saw it again. They had fun, we had fun. My kids are a riot. They make me laugh, especially the youngest.
We got back home last night and went to Wolly World....YEAH I got 2 new DVD's , "Daylight" and "Double Jeopardy". Both good movies. I've been talking about making a list of my fav movies but some reason I just haven't gotten around to it yet. I know I will one of these days I will do it. Maybe. LOL
Talked online to the "the phyllis". She is doing good and so is her 2 yr old. The doc finally removed his tonsils and adenoids. She said he is already showing improvement. Im glad, that poor thing always had ear infections, sore throat, the works.
Ok, now for me....Im doing alright considering. Work is going good, and so is my hubby's. We have a place to live, its not the best in the world but its a roof. And we now have Hot water. Went there for about 2 weeks with none at all. The one that my dad did have burst last winter. He wasn't staying here and it got extremely cold and so Kaboom! no more hot water heater. Well, we do now and its amazing the little things you miss when you don't have them. It was a pain in the butt heating up water on the stove for a bath, or even to just do the dishes.
We are planning on going to Ky next weekend. I am looking forward to it. I will get to see and party with "the Phyllis". We are going to have fun, fun, fun.

re-energizing my soul
As time slowly passes....
Moonbeams dance in the cool crisp night.
starlight flickers in your eyes.
A night, made bright by moonbeams in the sky.
The light guides her through the stark, gray forest,
once green and lush, full of life.
Memories scattered by the winds of change,
impede her path at every turn.
She continues with determination,
feeling the breeze on her face.
She recalls the best of times,
feeding on their enery.
It carries her through the wicked branches.
Further on the darkness starts to embrace her.
She feels its strength reach down into her very core.
She strains to fight the cold embrace of the night.
Something in the distance catches her gaze,
upon the horizon she can see the faint glow,
the glow emanating the path ahead that will lead her home.
Where it all began, where she will stay for eternity.
Her heart won't ache for desire, But she will ache for the desire to have a heart.
She must go on.
The trees begin to close in her mind, playing tricks on her.
She looks around, and feels them closing in, as the tree spirits wrap her soul in a sea of silk,
She sees a flicker in the distant.
The warmest of glows from fire of unwanted dreams.
She is starting to feel tired and lonely.
Her breath is heavy and quick.
Oh, to take a break, and sit on a rock and listen to the gurgle of the stream.
"You are almost there my friend, push on" a faint whisper in the dark.
She can feel the warm of the heat from the flame,
Her body aches, and her chest burns.
reaching the fire, she is here...
She waits, watching the fire dance.
After a moment, she realizes,
realizes that she is no longer standing beside the flame,
for once beside, now inside the flame...
The whisper once before now says anew...."Time has no place here. You are home."

Aww just shut up already! your making me stupid...
Its been awhile....so one would think that I have lots to say...well for some reason I don't think I do. Maybe I will once I get going here. Work is well work. ITs not bad but it isn't great either. But there is a girl, that is nineteen that works with me occasionally, well she is a talker. I mean the girl loves to hear herself talk. Half the time, she doesn't really know what she is talking about. Don't ya just love people like that?! Sometimes its really hard not to just tell her..will you shut the fuck up!!! Last night at work, one of the managers asked me..."is she getting on your nerves yet?" I laughed and said yes...LOL
Ok...since I have working nights again I haven't talked with my friend opie all week...but I have been chatting with a guy in florida in the wee hours of the morning. He is such a hoot! We laugh alot and talk a lot of shit but its fun. He even told my hubby that I was "super cool". How awesome is that!! It feels pretty good when someone tells ya that your cool but i always knew i was. Im sure others would differ with me on that but I say to them...."Fuck you bastards"...LOL He is not so bad himself. The other night I made him go to Steak n Shake and get one of their new white chocolate milk shakes. I had one too and its REALLY good. The eggnog flavor is back! Im going to wait to get one of those when we go to Kentucky for a visit the next weekend.(I can't wait to get my high on with my great friend "THE PHYLLIS!) We were chatting the other with some idiot 18year old in New York. He started spouting shit that women are stupid, when we get want we want fuck everybody else, you still talkin to me, women are bitches and blah blah blah. Well Phyllis started chatting with him also, well he thought she was a guy because of her screen name...IT got to be pretty hilarious. I'll tell ya something too, Phyllis tells ya shit just like it is, she also knows how to say something that makes the other person feel like an idiot(truth hurts don't it ya idiots out there, Yeah you know you are so don't act you don't know what I am talking about). Hey, Im saying that sometimes I can't be an idiot, Im sure I can be, but Im not a stupid, idiot, moronic, dumbshit, that thinks women are all stupid bitches either. No wonder the guy is online and not out trying to find a woman of us own. He's been turned down by too many....and mostly because he is just plain rude!!!
I'm thinking I want another tattoo. I wonder is there is way to post a pic in this here diary. Ummm..something to look into.
Also some good news...My hubby Rob found one of my poems on paper, I thought i lost all them when yahoo to my previous ID away from me. I had them posted on the website, and some saved to a floppy, but we can't find the floppy anywhere. Sucks too, they were pretty good.
OK...I finally got the paper that had one of poems in it outta the car...so here is it....lemme know whatya think..
Time has no place here....
Journeying through the shadow mist
The owl flies love over the hills
The sound of frogs croak
The limbs of the trees, dark and cold
Stretch over the path like arthritic fingers,
Long for the relief from existence.
The breeze moves the scent of the wet earthacross the forest floor.
Steam rises slowly from the suns heat,
Then as dusk moves in, it falls back as dew.
Moistens the ground, quenching the grasses.
Time has no placeMoonlight flickers through the air
Images appear before thee
Haunting and surreal,
Like a plague upon ones memory.
The spirits of darkness all around,
You feel them, you touch them,
They know what you have come for,
They know what you need and why.
Your toes began to tingle,
The sensation follows to your legs
and they begin to move
They flow with sounds of the wild
They inhabit your heart and open your soul
It awakens to things unbeknownst
Your eyes become open even though they are closed,
You begin to see things anew,
feelings come alive,
All your heartache is lifted into the air,
Flows freely in the breeze and is carried away,
Carried away into the dark, enchanting sea.
Your burden has been lifted, you
fall to your knees,
grateful to the all unknown spirits,
For what has been done.
Time has no place here.
Last weekend, I sat down and started writing again. Well, by the time I finished, i realized that I had wrote a prequel to this one. The next time i post an entry I will include it....

Isn't the weather just great.
Here I am again. What can i say? I had a great weekend. Rob and I went to our buddies house, took a little road trip, came back and got our groove on. It was awesome. It felt great passing around that J. We wasn't able to hang out for long, but long enough I guess. We did get to see our friend that we hadn't seen in a long while. Im sure we will be hanging out again. We were talking about being able to do couples stuff together. His girlfriend his very pretty and she seems like fun too.
I was able to spend some time with my kids on sunday afternoon. It went great. My youngest son, he'll be 10 in December, he is just a riot. He was telling me that I needed to shave his legs because they were getting too hairy. Hairy?? He's only 10. He is a little weird sometimes, but funny. He just makes ya laugh. My other son, was a little quiet. He didn't quite seem hisself. I guess we all have days like that. My daughter was doing good though. She was pretty much herself. We watched the LOTR 3, we rented it on saturday night and realized while we were watching it that we had already seen it when we were living in Kentucky. We felt really stupid. I couldn't believe I picked out a movie i had already seen but I was so sure that I hadn't seen it. Oh well, life does move on. ITs a crazy world i just live it.
Living with my dad hasn't really been that bad. We our trying to get things moved around and figured out so we can actually have a room with a door. Ya know, that privacy thing that married couples need. I had Rob put a sheet up last night so we could have some privacy. Because anybody that is in the kitchen or walking to the restroom can see right into the bedroom. ITs pretty much just an open space. But the sheet hanging on a rope does help.
I need to turn on some music or something its just too damn quiet in here. LOL

28 Oct 2004 - Just another day at the office.
I know its been awhile so here I am. We are no longer living with sister. She kind of asked us to leave one night so we are back living with my biological father. Its not great but at least its not the car..LOL I am finally getting more hours at work now. I have to work 3-close but its cool. At least this place closes unlike steak n shake which is open 24 hours 363 days of the year. Believe me that gets old and its hell sometimes. But I did enjoy working there thats for sure. I am starting to miss my pals in Kentucky. They were some great people. Phyllis, you still ROCK!! Thanks for puffing harder for me the other night, it was awesome.
I went to get a much needed haircut today. My hair feels great. Its still long but feels better. I will actually be able to fix it now instead of just putting it up in ponytail all the time. But before I went and got my haircut I went to the Hustler Hollywood store and got some much needed lube. Man, that stuff is awesome. If you have never tried it you should, it really feels great

5 Oct 2004 - Aww..don't you just love your family?!
Well, i am now back to working again. Finally!! I am now working days. YEAH!! I'm soooooo happy now. I didn't realize working days was so awesome. I get off work while its still daylight. How weird is that? For those of you that don't know, I used to work nights at steak n shake in kentucky. I like days alot better. I am going to get to have a life now I can't believe it. Right now its not all that big of a deal but when my husband and I get a place of our own, watch out. Living with relatives sucks butthole, but you do what you have to do in order to have a place to live until you can get the money together to get your own place. Oh what a day that will be, standing outside with your mouth open wide, ahh ahhh ahh aha ahha...oh wait thats a song..LOL

This is a link to the National Archives and Records Administration. I would like anybody that stumbles on to my diary take a look at this page and read the third paragraph and then tell me why everybody is making such a big deal about people voting in the presidential election. I've never understood the big hoopla surrounding it. The popular vote does not count.
http://www.archives.gov/federal_register/electoral_college/scores2.html#2000
If you take a look at the above page you can see that Al Gore clearly won the popular vote but George Bush won the election. We the people need to rise up and say that stinks!!

2 Oct 2004 - Would you please just Shut UP!!!!
Today was a very hectic, chaotic day. I went with my sister and my dad to run some errands. Everything was going ok until we got to my dads house. We stopped there so he could pick up his monthly check and cash it. Well he thought that once we did this we were going to be able to take him around to pay his monthly bills. Now most people just send their bills in the mail. Not my dad. He wants to hand deliver every single one. I know his reasoning why he wants to do this but i keep trying to explain to him that you can send them, they will get there. Let me see if i can explain this to you. My dad is 64 years old and only has a 6th or 7th grade education. I don't know exactly which one it is because it changes every week. He can't read and he doesn't really know how to write. He is very stubborn. You try to explain to him the way things are today and just doesn't believe you, either that he just doesn't want to. Well, it also doesn't help that my sister hasn't been paying some of his bills. Quite a few of them haven't been paid in a couple of months. Which this has made him extremely pissed at her. This is kind of his fault to. I tried to get him to put me on his account so i could help him with paying his bills but he doesn't want to take the time to do it. She has also been using his money to pay some of her stuff even though her and her husband get plenty of money each month to make their bills. She also has a problem with spending the bill money on senseless crap and then she wonders there is no money to pay the bills with. WEll DUH!!!! Where do you think it goes?!! I am glad the my dad is finally opening his eyes to what she has been doing with his money. Because what she has been doing is not right and just burns my butter. He doesn't get that much and she wants to buy crap with it. I don't think so. Don't get me wrong i love my sister but......Well, anyways in the car today, my dad and her just kept bickering. I couldn't take it anymore. I had to finally tell them both to shut up, they were driving me nuts. (he also complains and always has to put his 2 cents in on the way my sister drives, which in some things he does has a point, but it gets old). When he does this, it just makes my sister frustrated and then she starts going crazy with the way she drives. She starts going faster, stopping shorter, taking curves to fast, and peeling out the tires. I actually could go on with this but im not.
I haven't been able to talk to my children all week. I miss them everyday. I will get to see them tomorrow at my sons' football games. I look forward to this. I will be able to spend some one on one time with them on sunday too. I just wish it was for longer. Maybe someday soon this will change. I finally was able to get a daytime job. Working those nights for the last 2 1/2 years really takes the toll on a person. I won't have to work all those long hours either and i will be able to make enough money to pay the child support that i have to pay. It will all come out of my check and then i won't have to worry about it anymore. I will work my hours and enjoy my days off. What a relief to be able to work normal hours, normal days. Maybe I can start to have some sort of semblance of a normal life. HA! Normal, what is that? So many different people, different ideas. What can be defined as normal. You can't define it, just not possible. And I think that is cool as hell. In this world we need different people, different ideas. Who wants everything to be the same as everything else. I know I don't. Wouldn't that getting boring. I'll tell you what, with me starting my new job this monday I won't get bored sitting around my sister's house with not shit to do. That was getting old real fast. She doesn't work and you can tell too. All she does is clean this freaking house. It so clean you could eat out of the toliet and shit on the floor. It wouldn't stay messy, she would be right behind you cleaning it up as you took your shit...HAHAH im so funny i crack myself up.

P.s. we named the kitten that has been hanging around and taking a liking to my husband....oliver twista cat, cool, huh?!

30 Sep 2004 - Now Showing: Working Woman Again:The Sequel
Hey Hey Hey, I got the job i was up for. HOoray!! IM so happy. I go today for orientation and start working on monday. And I get to work days no more working nights and into the wee hours of morning. I get to have life besides sleeping all day and working all night. Im so proud of meself. I don't have to wait tables anymore either. That got really old. Dealing with people who just want want want and then only leave you a buck for a your trouble. But i do have to say that there were times i did get really awesome tips, i just don't want to depend on that anymore. I want all my money in my checks. When i do start working it will be good, that i don't have to spend all day with my crazy sister. Sisters' can drive you nuts, can they not?
I've been able to chat with a very good friend of mine the last couple of days. It had been over 2 years since we last spoke but it feels like no time has past at all. He is soooo funny. He cracks me up more than i crack myself up. He is only a year younger than me and it is nice to have a friend that is closer to your own age. Don't get me wrong, i loved the young friends I had/made while living in Kentucky, but you must admit, its nice to have somebody close to your own age as a friend, as well.
My husband has made friends with a little kitten that has been coming around. He always tells me that he is a dog person, but he also loves cats now. Its because of me, cause i rather have a cat than a dog. He feed the little kitty some warm milk this morning. He says he is going to take care of it or will end up dying this winter and we just can't have that. You know, i would like to be able to one get a hold of these people that throw kittens out to fend for themselves, especially when they are too young to take care of themselves. IF you aren't going to take care of pet, Then DON"T have one!!!!
Thats all for now folks.

28 Sep 2004 - I just couldn't believe it!
well, well, well....I was sitting at the computer last night, like i usually do. I love the internet!. Well, i was playing my zuma game and listening to my launchcast plus on yahoo and low and behold a friend that i haven't talked to in a couple of years comes online. Needless to say I practically jumped out of my chair. I immediately sent him a message. I was really wanting to talk to him. He was such a great friend. He is funny, and great to hang out with. He is awesome. Anyways, i sent him a message. Well he didn't reply, at first, so i sent him another one just telling him to have a great life and all that if he didn't want to talk to me, but after i sent that one, we started talking. He pretty much told me that in the last couple of years he did some soul searching and apologized for just cutting off his friendship and that he did email me telling me all this. I asked him where he sent the email, well he sent it to the old yahoo addy-starmouse1972-I never got it because Yahoo took that addy away from me, which i am still stewing over. I had a lot of friends online under that addy, and all those webpages of mine...uughhhhh! Well, we had a nice chat, i was very happy to hear from him. He is doing really well. So things can only get better from here. I hope so. I really liked hanging out with. Had some good times.
Hopefully, maybe there will be more...one can only hope and there is nothing wrong with hoping.
I finally have a job interview for tomorrow. I had to call them but its cool. So things are definitely looking up. The hubby has 2 interviews today. So something has to come from one of them don't ya think. Im keeping my fingers crossed. I seriously don't want to live with my sister forever. She is kind of driving me nuts but i will live since she is letting us live here until we can get things squared away for ourselves. But as i sit and think about it, sisters are supposed to drive each other nuts. that is what we are here for. I guess you could say we are making up for lost time. You see, my sisters and I, there are 4 of us, well, we didn't grow up together. When I was about 7 or 8 our biological parents had to give us up for adoption. It was hard for us then but now I am thankful. I can't even begin to imagine what our life would have been like if we would have stayed where we were. Every couple of years some of us would see each other but not ever all 4 of us at one time. So when we did get older, 18, we did manage to find each other and get back in touch. Which we have done, except now, our baby sister, has lost touch with us. The last phone number i have for her, has been disconnected. Not trying to read too much into this but its hard not to. She did email me. Its been almost 2 years since then. She had a new baby with her new husband and things were going good with them. And she even agreed with me that we needed tot stay in touch, well she hasn't. so one of these days I am going to take a drive to her last address i have for her and find out WTF is going on. and I know with a new family, some of old gets passed by the wayside, but still, we are sisters. And I also know that i can't force her to do something she doesn't want or have the desire to do but i feel that i have a right to know why she hasn't kept in touch, and if she doesn't want anything to do with us anymore why hasn't she said so?. I don't think that is too much to ask, do you? Me neither. I will write more on this as info becomes available

24 Sept. 2004-Just Another Day
Well, not really all that much happening right now. Still looking for a new job. Did take my app back to Wendy's. Woohoo Wendy's but hey its a job and i need one. So beggars can't be choosers.
I am really glad to be back in Ohio though. I missed it up here. I know where everything is pretty much. I was hoping to go to the library today but didn't make it up there. We did get a temp tag for the car. So know we don't have to worry about that for awhile. 30 days anyway.
My sister cleaned the house today and wasn't saying much. She was upset because she and her husband are trying to get pregnant and it hasn't happened yet. I keep telling her that she needs to relax and not think about it for awhile and if it is meant to be it will but she doesn't really think so. She can be stubborn like that. we all can from time to time, but we have to eat the meals life dishes out to us. We can change some things but not everything. It all comes back to that destiny thing I guess. Do we actually get to chose the things that happen, or is everything already laid out for us. Will we ever know. Probably not. such is life. we take chances, take the consequences and then move on to the next mistake, hurdle, or the joy. whatever we get, we get.

16 Sep 2004 - Moved out of the country back to the big city
Ok, Ok, I know its been an extremely long time since I've added an entry to my diary. I did kind of forget about it there for awhile actually. I don't know how I could have but I did. So hopefully, now that some things in my life have changed I will remember more often. My husband and I finally were able to move back to Ohio on Aug 31st. Kentucky was Ok for a little while, but things were starting to get stressful. We were living with roommates, and that got extremely old after awhile. We really never had any privacy. There was also alot of other shit that went on but no since trudging up the past, because its done its over. Of course, I will miss of few of the friends that I did make down there but I am more happy to be home than anything else. I've been able to see my kids and i talk with them on the phone every night. Which when I was in KY it didn't happen. circumstances suck! But things are going to be better now.
And you know what I wish....I wish people would stop pushing me to do stuff. I will do them i feel they need to be, and I will always do something before it needs to be done. They make me feel like a freaking little kid instead of the 32 year old woman that I am. I have a mind of mine own and I will use it. Someone tries to force me to do something that I don't want or ready for, you will end up just pushing me away from them. They should know this by now. I will DO IT when I want to do it, not any sooner so get off my fucking back and leave me alone....you know whom I am talking about so don't act like you don't. Ok enough ranting, I do feel better.
We are living my sister and her husband for the time being. Hopefully, we can both find work pretty soon and get money saved so we can find a place of our own and keep our jobs and be able to stay in one place for a long time. Im tired of moving. It gets pretty old after awhile. I had to move alot when I was kid....I want to stay in one place and actually live! Doesn't everybody?! I mean I have dreams and desires, and goals and hopes. And One of them is definitely not to keep moving around all the time. It just puts too much stress on a person. How much can one person cope with?---i mean for real.

20 Mar 2004 - Peanut Butter and Banana's
I think that I have finally realized that I do have the ability to make new friends. And its funny how that people that you thought would be friends for a long time can come crashing, streaking to a halt. I would still someday like to find my "best" friend. I did have one in high school but afterwards, we both kind of went our separate ways. Which sometimes, that is how it goes. When I was married the first time, my 'best' friend more or less, was my ex husbands mother. We got a long extremely well. I talked to her than I did my own mother. We could talk for hours, even on the phone. IT was strange but I did like it. I think after all those years of being around her---and now IM not. I miss the relationship we had.
My sister is due with her 5th child this coming tuesday. Im looking forward to it. I just hope that she has it on one of my days off from work. I can't really afford to miss a day of work, but I guess i could just make up a day. I should check into that. Yes that is what I will do tomorrow at work...
And since I mentioned work, you would not believe the shit that is going on there. A girl I work with, Jessica, is trying to blame me for everything that she does at work. ITs just crazy. But its work and i will continue to do my job. Just like it should be

17 Mar 2004 - IM BACK!!!
OK...Yeah I know its been awhile since I 've been here. But a lot has happened in the time frame. I don't know if I can exactly recall everything that has happened but Im going to give it a good try.
Ok here it goes.....Well we moved out of our house and moved in with a girl that I work with. She was really nice and opened up here home to us when we needed it. Im so thankful for people like her.
I had 3 friends, well I thought they were friends, pretty much give me the cold shoulder. It kind of sucked at first. Well, because we always hung out together, and they also stayed at our house for weeks on end and we never asked anything from them. Anyways, we aren't really on speaking terms and I realized that maybe they were kind of bad influence on me. Plus, they were also way younger than me.
will continue this later, I need to lay down...night

20 Jan 2004 - Just another day
I know, I know! Its been awhile. But Im back. Lots has been happening the last couple of weeks. We now have a roommate, well make that 2. A good friend of mine from work, Justin, and my biological father, Charlie. Its actually going pretty good considering, we only have 1 bedroom, and its MINE all MINE!!! lol My Dad is living with us because he can't really take care of himself anymore. So while its winter out, he will be staying here. I really don't know how he is liking it. He hasn't said anything, yet. he can be stubborn, and hard headed but he can be hilarious at times. And Justin, well its Justin, what can I say.
Eventually we are going to try find a bigger place for all of us.
Work has been kind of crazy here of late. Friday night wasn't too bad, I made OK money. But Saturday night was Cool as fuck...I made lots and lots of mucho dinero...I mean mucho!!! We were busy the first part of the night and people were actually tipping good.
Now for the people that I work with....they are a couple of people that don't need to be working.....they are crazy or just plain Lazy and it irks me to no end. Why do they keep hiring these people???? They aren't there to work, just to make some spending money. They are not trying to earn their living or anything.....But Im not the manager so I don't have say, I just live with it...but it doesn't mean I can't bitch about it from time to time...LOL
