Where o Where have I been?

Not here blogging!! So lets see whats going on in my world.

Kiarah spoke to Taylor last night. she asked to call him so I said ok. I don't want to step in her way and like I said last time end up the bad guy. They talked about school, and she brought up going to Va after Xmas. She told him about dance and how she loves to play Guitar Hero. He asked if Madi can talk yet. So Kiarah asked Madi if she wanted to talk to daddy and they talked. He asked her what she was doing and she said. Mommy, Yaya (Kiarah), Aries, home tv. Basically we were home watching TV. LOL then I got a phone call I was waiting for and told him they would call back. LOL But by that time they were off to bed.

Today I got nerve to call him myself. I called his GF because his phone is still not on. She said he wouldn't be home til 5 or 6. So we talked. The reason I wanted to call was because Kiarah wants to play spring soccer and I won't have the money in time for the deadline. The stupid soccer president made the last day of sign up on Dec 28th. Uhm hello that's only a few days after Xmas. Most people spend their last pay check on Xmas like me. LOL. I asked if she knew if he would have 75 before the deadline and I told her why I needed it. So she took the money out of her rent and will have him put it back next pay check. I was shocked she did it. She was at the post office getting it and going to send it while she was there.

We talked about other things. But Im not going to blast all that on the internet out of respect.

UPDATES ON US!

Work is keeping me on my toes! I love my job. I am working about 8-9 hrs a day. Its getting hectic but I am managing. I have yet to hear from the lady about my GED. I called the director and she is on vaca until Jan 5th. Blah on them. I need to get my ass to the damn dentist. My teeth have been bothering me. I think I have a cavity. :( cavities suck ass. I went to the dermatologist yesterday the 2 things I have on my arm and back. Are not cancer. I forget what he said they are but I'm good. No need to be surgically removed. YAY me. LOL. I am debating on getting my IUD removed. LOL I hate how my period is. Its just so anoying. Too much info but it just comes when it wants and I spot on and off whenever my body feels its needed. I have lost 5 more lbs. Woo Hoo me. Who would of thunk with the holiday season upon us I would lose not gain. LOL. I plan on starting the Couch to 5k soon. I just need a new ipod. That will have to wait until I am caught up with everthing. Im thinking maybe Feb starting? I need to buy my mom her Xmas present and then pay for my phone and I will be good. I am torn between the pink and red one. I want to get the Nike thing that connects to it too. Measures your distance and this and that. Seems pretty cool.

Kiarah has been driving me mad. At school they are on a color chart for behavior. Green is good, yellow is a warning, and red is 2 warnings. She brought home a yellow every day last week but Friday. And has at least 2 a week. This week Mon was green, Tues yellow, yesterday RED!!!! and today yellow. Apparently yesterday she decided to bite a kid because they took an eraser from her. So my mom decided to tell me she is the way she is at school because of me. Its all my fault @@. she is acting the same way she did when she was DXed with ADHD! I am so fed up with it that I am having her reevaluated and possibly put on meds. Do I want to no. But nothing is working anymore. I can take everything away from her til she has nothing but clothes...which is what she has in her room and she still acts this way. Its frustrating to deal with.

Madi is great. Doing very good PTing. I am still to worried to put her in panties but it will happen in about another week or so. Next week I will be buying pull ups. I couldn't afford them this week. LOL Nothing to really update on her.

Orientation and then some.

So I had orientation tonight. I was not thrilled to be honest. LOL I hate school so damn much that when I was in the parking lot in front of the building my stomach started turning. Anyway so I go to the room it was supposed to be in and a bunch of people are just waiting. No one shows up. 5 minutes later the instructor walks over and tells us we are to go to another room @@ yea thanks! LOL. So I got my test results back. Reading and Language is GREAT! Math...not so much. LOL. Im in 7th grade math. I am horrible at it. Anyway because I got below a 9th grade in math I have to do 50 hrs just in math then take another test to see if I am at a 9th grade level. Then I will be in the GED class and work towards my pre test which will be about a month. Once I pass that test I will qualify for the actual test. So the lady said she was going to come around to each person and explain to them what the test score means and if they were placed in the right class. So she comes around to me and we started (wow I started typing got to talking...so southern @@) and I mentioned about taking the test back in 01. So she said I shouldn't have to retake the whole test. I told her I only failed the 1 part because I rushed the test because I wanted to get out of there...yes I know stupid. Anyway so she said my test should be good until 2012. She is going to look into it and see if she is giving me the right info. If thats the case I won't have to take GED classes for math. I will just take the practice test for language and then test in Feb on that part. My luck she gave me thr wrong info. LOL So whoever reads...please have hopeful thoughts.

So onto other things!

Last night Kiarah was acting up. So my mom said to her you better knock it off because Santa is watching and I bet he won't bring you any toys. So she turns around and says IDC he's not real anyway!!! I wanted to cry. she is only 6 and too young to know the truth...IMO. I tried to convince her he is, but she wasn't going for it. The parks and rec here has some dude call kids who sign up for it. So I faxed them the paper this morning and they will have the person call on Wednesday. Hopefully it will put the fact he is "real" back in her.

The last 3 days Madi has been doing REALLY well with the potty. Yesterday she went potty 6 times. Out of those 6...5 she told me she needed to go. Today she has gone four times. Out of the 4 she told me twice! Its def a work in process but I think she has it down and this is it. I just bought my last box of diapers I will now have to get pull ups and put her in diapers only at night. Oh and the 2nd time she had to go, she made me laugh. She told me too hurry up (her new phrase) and run. LOL. I'm so proud of her!

Adios cupcake maker

Yep. I plan to do just that!!! So after someone telling me that the cupcake maker had bad reviews and I checked them out on 2 sites. It will be going back. Almost everyone said the cakes taste like card board and the icing was just gross. So that will go back and I will have my mom get the spa thing instead. It looked like a cool thing but oh well.

A little of this, and a little of that

Kiarah FINALLY lost her 1st tooth last night. She is growing up so fast, its really scary! It was so bittersweet that I got all teary eyed. LOL. She was happy it finally came out. The Tooth Fairy came last night. Her name is Erin. She left a letter for Kiarah, some dough and fairy dust fell off her wings when she came to visit. She left me a wonderful mess to clean. Damn her. ;-)

Kiarah was sick over the weekend with a fever. And then Tuesday night she was hacking all night, so I kept her home Wednesday. I brought her to the DR and she has acute bronchitis. I also talked to her about her ADHD. Lately she has been slipping back to her old ways and I am fed up with her behavior. And with her teacher sending me notes home every day enough is enough. So we are going to re-evaluate her. I sent the release form for the DR back in NY to send her file over. And now that I realized..they are not going to have anything on file. Its there but everything was in her school records. So I have to call tomorrow and see whats going to happen with that. My luck they will re test her on EVERYTHING, which I don't want to do because it months long process. So we will see. Anyway so I have some pics to share. I wish there was a better way to upload them rather than only 5 at a time. Grrr its not letting me put anymore on. I will fix it later.

Front of the house

The entrance way

Our mantle

LOL Kiarah when she was sick

Oh how fun

So today I go for my entrance test for GED class. I am so not excited to go. I just think its stupid that I have to take the test, and then the class. Why can't I just take the damn GED test its self? I hate going to class, It makes me all nervous and crap. I know I need to do this, and I will do this. I just don't want to. LOL

Oh joyus!

I can't believe its December 1st already. Where did this year go? 24 more days and its Xmas. I have bought a few things here and there. This week I am going to go buy Kiarah's soccer nets, and stocking stuff. Kiarah's big gift will be HG World Tour, and Madison I am still thinking on the Dora power wheel. IDK what else to get her for a big gift. I think she would really enjoy that. But then I am woried with would be waste of money. I am still not sure what to get. I know some things for Madison, but Kiarah not so much. This weeks paycheck all goes to dance though. So I will have a lil bit for the stocking stuff and nets. I have to pay for this months class, her recital outfit, and sweatshirt. BLAH its rape I tell you. LOL Taylor's mom is supposed to be sending me back $100 because I paid in advance for the train tickets. So that will go for gifts. Im hoping she will be sending this week or next.

I am so not looking foward to this holiday. Its going to be so different without my sister, niece and nephew around. Plus I won't be able to see Steph. It sucks. NYE should be fun. I am going to my parents best friends house its his bday and NYE party all in one. So it will be nice to be around adults on NYE. LOL. I have to hire a babysitter though so that is not fun. LOL Im hoping my God sister will be the one watching the girls.

Kiarah's tooth is ready to like fall out of her mouth. LOL She ate an apple this morn for breakfast hopinf it would take it out, but it did not do the trick. It will be out before Xmas.

I now have to go and figure out dinner. IDK what to make.
