Brody is 10!

Now I have tow kids in the double digits. These kids are growing up too fast! He is now out of his car seat and now has a phone. What are we going to do with him? LOL! What to say about Brody? He is our comedian but sometimes goes too far. I think he tries too hard to impress people when he doesn't have to. I believe he is great just being him! I don't think he quite understands that yet. He reminds me so much of my brother it's not even funny. I think it's better that he now has his own room so he can be by himself when he wants to and he doesn't have to answer his door if he doesn't want to. I am proud of how much he has grown in this past year. He still has more to learn!

 He had a Five nights at Freddy's theme. I don't know why kids like this game

We were going to have some of his party at Flynn retrocade in Roy on Saturday but they were booked that day and they only have two available slots. One in the morning and one at night and no one wants to go to a party at 10 at night. I felt bad that we didn't have a big party for his 10th but I think buying him the phone made up for it. 

Another year has passed and I am glad that this is going to be his last party. Not a lot of people came and I think because it's right before Christmas. I think it's hard to have a birthday party around the holidays. I felt bad for him because none of his friends came. And I was kinda disappointed. I hope that he had a good birthday. Only my family came so I guess that is better than nothing but I am glad that we decided no more parties for this guy. I think he felt left out and I still think he feels that way. He wants to go spend his Target gift card today and I think that will be a good idea and maybe make him feel better about things. Even though I don't think he deserve going to Target because now that he is 10 it seems like his attitude has gotten worst and I don't think the phone is helping. I love you bud just the way you are!! Don't change for anyone!!

Happy 3rd birthday to Daisy Lynn!!

I am just sick and tired of my job

I am having a hard getting a new job. I apply at one or two jobs a week. I am tired of picking up everyone's slack at work. I am tired of her not hiring anyone else and being comfortable with how things are going there. I am tired of her not changing my schedule around even when I request a day off. She keeps everyone on the same schedule and never changes it around. You can't even call in because you don't have anyone to cover your shift. I would love to work more on the weekdays than the weekends. Maybe I won't have to have a job much longer because Chris got a raise at work and he is doing really well there that he might become a lead because he is so good at what he does. I just wish I can find a job that appreciates my hard work. I am just tired of it all and I just hope it changes around soon. I am sorry but you can't have a set schedule when you work retail; it is just impossible. I just try to avoid my boss at all cost because I really don't want to see her. I am so glad that she is gone by the time I come into work all the time. Everyone please pray that I won't be at my job very much longer. In a couple of months it will be my one year anniversary. Maybe I should just wait until then and then quit. I just don't know how much I can take though.

Feelings about what happened a year ago

A year ago was a hard time for us. Chris was in the hospital for his bacterial infection and it was one of the most scariest times of my life. I never want to relive that day ever again. I understand that it was hard for everyone but everyone has to remember that I am #1 in Chris' life!! Everyone also have to remember that I almost lost a husband!! It wasn't about anyone else but Chris and getting him better. I really hate that everyone forgets that I played a big role in what happened a year ago. I worked my butt off that whole week that he was in the hospital. I took care of 4 kids almost all by myself. If it wasn't for me Chris wouldn't be here today. I am the one that demanded the xray; I am his angel!! When Chris was in the hospital it seemed like his mom wanted all of the attention on her and it was about her. She keeps forgetting that I come first in his life. I understand that she is his mom but I am his wife!! She keeps saying that she had to be there for him when he went to St. Marks and she didn't. I was counting on God to watch over him. It wasn't like I could of stopped doing what I was doing here and go and be with him. He knows that I was thinking of him. He knows that I had important things to do like take care of our children.Who was going to take care of them if I went up there?! And that is all that he wanted from me during that time was take care of things at home. I am pretty sure he would of been fine if no one was there when he got out of surgery. He was probably so out of it anyways that it didn't matter.  I wish that she would stop mentioning it and move on. The reason why I am saying all of this because this has been kept inside for too long and it needs to come out so I can move on. I am so glad that he is well and that everything is good now. God works in mysterious ways and still surprises me all the time. I also want to thank all the doctors and nurses that worked around the clock to help him get better. They are the true heroes in this story!!

Update on my job situation

Things aren't getting better at my work. There is only one positive thing that happened and that is they finally fired that one girl that kept having no calls no shows. It's kinda weird how it all happened. My other co worker had her check missing and she couldn't find it anywhere. When we get our checks our manager puts them in a drawer and my co worker's check went missing the day after I saw it next to my check stub and the next person that was in after me was Leann. After Kassi's check went missing Leann did a no show no call and didn't contact our manager until 2 days later. We believe that she took it because I find that guilty in itself. Lately when I have been getting into work I am so fed up with nothing getting done that it takes all my strength not to walk out. The new guy keeps telling me that I should go try for a manager position because I would be good at it. But I don't think I want all the responsibility and plus the store is so screwed up by this point that I don't want to fix everyone's mistakes. It's pretty bad when the new person can see your potential as well even though he doesn't know you very well. Every time I come into work I always stocked the cigarettes so they are fully stocked during my shift. Well they started this thing where all but the cheap cigarettes are going to be locked in the manager's office and you can't stock them until the manager is there which I think it's stupid. What happens when a customer wants a brand of cigarette and you are out of stock on the shelf and you can't restock them until the manager is there? We are going to have some pissed off customers. It is going to annoyed me so bad because I am a very organized person and if nothing is stocked it's going to drive me nuts. I guess some cigarettes are ending up missing which I find it hard to believe. What is hiding them in the office going to do? Nothing. I think it's stupid to be honest! That is another reason why I am glad to be leaving this place. I can't wait until I gone. I am trying to hang in there but it has been hard trying to find a job.
