random updates

So here is a list of random updates since the last time I wrote ...

* yes!, I did get my own job so I am officially NOT acting anymore ... no, I didn't get more money ... but I have been doing the job for more than 4 years now so is just about time
* yes, I did get my house back but with pops having no transportation until like a week ago, it was a bit hard even thinking that I could go more than a week without having to haul ass over to where he is and helping him out
* kiddo got honor roll at school so momma is super proud!
* kiddo also lost another tooth and has 2 more that are loose so the tooth fairy might be busy within the next month or so
* my thumb is getting a bit greener - that was usually my parents or my sister's touch, I was the one to kill plants ... but am getting better and in a way, it makes me feel connected to ma'
* yesterday was 9 months since ma' passed away ... it seems so long ago
* for whatever reason, I feel very disconnected from a lot of people - it doesn't happen online, it happens in real life
* I decided to cut ties with a person that I felt very attached to emotionally speaking ... I think it is affecting more than what I expected it to and I don't know what to do
* at the same time, I am getting closer to someone that I know is not good for me and I don't know how to stop it since it doesn't seem that there is anyone else better than him on sight ... sad, uh?

I think that is about it ... bared my soul much?

... 'til the next time ...

dsiXL

So.... we are on Spring Break this week and momma decided to get G a dsiXL ... I know, I like to spoil my kid, so what?  Is not like he throws stones to the neighbor's windows or steps on a cat's tail just to inflict pain.  I have a good kid.  I do.

 

His face when I gave it to him ... priceless!  Then he got an old ds that one of my friend's had given him after he lost his dsi last month ... and he set it up so we could chat, lol.  I think it is called "picto-chat" or something like that.

 

And he sends me these cute messages that just melt my heart!  ♥♥♥ This one particular message he has said before, but being that I love reading, seeing it written down, it just made me smile ... it said "if you were a rose, I would pick you!"

 

I love that boy!

moving

Well ... it happened ... my dad is moving out of my house.  I am getting my house back!  And I have so many changes in mind that I want to make!  I think they will keep me pretty busy for at least 2-3 months, lol

 

My sister finished moving - she is now in the south side of O-town.  Taking the expressway the drive is around 20-25 minutes.  Where my dad is moving to, is the west side of town.  A 10-15 drive through the expressway is the distance from my place on the east and his place.  Not bad.  I think this way we are not on top of each other but we are close enough to be of help to each other.

 

Dad is excited it seems.  Guess he needed his own space and Lord knows I needed mines.  I don't regret having him move in with me after ma' passed away.  It was the right thing to do at the time.  And now that he feels ready to move out, he is doing it on his own time.

 

In other news ... I am interviewing tomorrow for my own job.  Yeah, you read right.  I have been in an 'acting' status since November 2008.  With all the changes in the economy and government protocols and policies and procedures, well I had to apply for it and I did (of course) ... and my interview is tomorrow at 2:30pm.  I am crossing my fingers that this will imply some increase in my pay but I am not counting on it.  I mean, I am grateful that in this economy I still have a J.O.B.
