christmas... stress

it is the 17th.  we are having our first Christmas event on the 22nd with my parents, my sister, and her boyfriend. I bought Cory NCAA third round tickets...and they won't be here until like March.. therefore, Ive got to get him something to open saturday.        and i dont know what to get him... 5 days...and I have no idea.     UGHHHHH ... i'm stressed.

gotta find something quick! Any ideas???

it's storming in December. that's weird.

time to go think.. because Carter's asleep! 

-♥-

i'm a slacker..

yes. i am a slacker.

I intended on updating my blog daily.. then came the end of the semester, and job hunting, and unemployment filing, and carter's birthday, first hair cut, birthday party, etc.  So it was way too much stress to try to blog and do all of that!

BUT, now I am going to update whenever I get a chance.

Lately, I've been a "stay-at-home" mom.   It's stressful. It's a lot harder than people think it is... at least with my child it is. He's spoiled. He has a temper. He's whiney.   Our days are long.   But i do love my little meanie boy.

:)

On the flip side, I'm gonna start looking for designs for my blog. ♥

YAY!

if it weren't for...

my son, my boyfriend, my family, my friends, and my awesome grades I've been receiving this semester..

then losing my job would be a pain in my butt!

There are just somethings you can't let get ya down! 

Tomorrow--Carter and I are going shopping with Granny and Aunt Ashie.  Since I'm unemployed, it'll be a lot more looking than shopping. (broke..as a joke)  

I'm just super glad to have Carter's birthday & Christmas presents taken care of. Above all, my son will have the best! Job or not! 

I've applied many places. Wish me luck and hope I receive a call!! 

[how many days until Thanksgiving?? I'm beginning to starve from the cravings!]

days behind..

I'm days behind on my countdown..and i probably won't pick back up on it. this week has been horrible.

Wednesday, I was fired from my job. So that now leaves me unemployed. Which is not okay. I have a baby to raise and buy for, a house to make payments on, a cellphone & a car to make payments on.. it's just SO stressful.

  enough of my pity party. let's talk about something else!

I've moved up in the world and got an Iphone..  yay me!! :) 

I'm ready for Thanksgiving and family time. it's much needed. 

I dont remember which day I left off on.. BUT a new goal I have now is to get a job!  Or at least a source of income flowing into my household to help pay my bills!  One that will work around my January school schedule.    Why can't I be rich?  ugh.

until next time.

day #8

today on the countdown.. i plan on going on a cruise!! Cory and I have talked about it and I'd say we will be planning on going one in the future!! I hear they're actually not THAT expensive. guess once I start doing some research on it, i'll find out for sure!


I didn't get to watch Monday is a Mother (Teen mom 2).. i'll have to get caught up throughout this week!!! ...yes.im a teen mom junkie, leave me alone. :)

welp. it's tuesday.

& the countdown continues

Happy MONDAY y'all!!!

I hate mondays.

there is seriously nothing worse than a monday...

 

ANYWAY. I skipped yesterday on the countdown, so today I'll make up for it.

day #10. I want to get married!!!!!!! I have my whole wedding basically planned out on a yellow notepad...dont laugh. I've got colors, bridal party, events, what i'm wearing, where i'm getting what i'm wearing, etc. My biggest  concern is the decor. I cant really decide what I want. But all i know is I want a big rock on my finger..and I'll continue to wait until I get one I suppose. *sigh*

day #9. I hope to one day have my dream job as a Clinical Psychologist! I keep running into problems with getting my bachelor's.. but hopefully once I get it, i can hit the high road into graduate school and have my masters!!! (maybe even go for my doctorate??....ehh i'm still iffy about that).. I would resort with any type of psychological therapy as a dream job actually. I always dreamed of working in a criminology atmosphere. Really getting into the minds of victims, or even criminals. It seems SOOOO interesting!!! ah I'd love it.

Family thanksgiving went swell. Tons of good food and nice chats with family!

Cousins.. (l-r) Martina, Carter, myself, Ashlee, & Lynn

Carter & I after we got home.. He has a diaper on.. Promise. He was running around in it...after he peed in his bedroom floor while being changed.. (ah. babies & mommyhood)

AND lastly. I want to show you all this house that I saw yesterday.. It is Cory's Great Grandmothers house.. who died.. and was left to his Mema's brother.. who died.. who left it to his son (Cory's second Cousin..i think).. anyway. this picture is from google maps.. so it sucks.. but apparently cory says its "run down".. "would take $100,000 or more to fix up"..  Well. I dont care. I want to go in this house and see how bad its really damaged.. because i LOVE IT!! I loooove old houses anyway. but the fact that its HUGE makes me love it even more.. So yes. I am determined to go in this house before the year is up.. just look at how big it looks from the sky!!!

Ughh I want this house. It would make for an awesome *maybe expensive* project.. But thats just something to add to my to-do list countdown, right?

until next time!

day #11.. on a saturday night!

day #11 on the countdown.. i hope to own a HUGE house one day.. there is a house on this street close to our house that i LOVE LOVE LOVE..  I tell cory daily we should become friends with those people...and today he replied back with "those type of people don't become friends with people like us"... hahaha he's probably right.. but that house is my dream house.. reminds me so much of Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey's house...and i LOVE Jessica and Nick.  I'm still sad they divorced 7 years ago. lol



now that i've done my countdown, let's talk about my dayyyyyy.  Cory, Carter and I went out to walmart today and bought Carter's birthday presents... I figure we'll give it two weeks, then go back and get his Christmas.. (his birthday is the 6th...christmas is right about the corner!) I wrapped it.. with a whole roll of paper.. (The gift is THAT big).. and also I took a 20 minute walk with bekka this morning.. to lose weight... then ate a HUGE lunch from Big Mooses.. so that was shot to heck.  oh well.   

FIRST THANKSGIVING DINNER TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and i am so excited!!!! i LOVE family time and family FOOD!

Hope everyone enjoys their weekend..  Carter and I are chilling in the bed while his daddy is working security at the Cinemas..  YAY SATURDAYS!

i keep hearing noises in my house... like someone throwing rocks at carters window.. when i peaked my head around the corner.. it stopped......       i'll be bustin' a cap if Someone's out there.... cory took the gun.. but i'll find something IF i have to.. lol shhhewwww i hate being alone!!!

until next time
