First, obviously, I have already fallen off the bandwagon. Making time for this is difficult. Even more so than before. Just a pre-warning..this post will be full of updates, info, and of course more than likely a rant...or two. :) And honestly, I am just too damned lazy tonight to bother with posting pictures.....
1st:
Cheyenne started kindergarten! YAYAYAY! She loves it so far and we can already
see improvements and what she is learning. Her teacher is a sweetheart. We have had one
mishap where the school made a BIG mistake and I had to go out there all Mama Bear, but they nipped it in the bud quickly and it has been (cross your fingers) smooth sailing since.
2nd:
I started school! For me that first few weeks of "Yes! I am motivated and a month ahead
on my assignments!", has worn off. Now I'm just ready for December!
3rd:
After much contemplation and making a tough decision, this past Tuesday I put in my
letter of resignation at my current job (AKA- 2 WKS NOTICE!). On Monday
I received a phone call from our local hospital and they offered me a position that I GLADLY accepted! I am ecstatic!!!! I have wanted to work there for so long! I will be switching to 12 hour night shifts, but it will work better with Cheyennes school schedule, and balancing Mikes work+mine+my school as well. (another perk..better pay and benefits!)
Rant:
I have come to the conclusion that I can no longer stomach to read other mama blogs. I just don't understand why women seem to think that as soon as they become mothers they have to give up their hopes and dreams in life. They turn them over for a life of laundry duty and dirty diapers and pretty much being a servant. Another thing is, I know so many people that are so much the opposite of a "Christian", but once they become a "master of domestic servitude", they are all of a sudden bible beating with the ones they hated before hand. It is one thing to be religious....but quite another thing when everyone around you knows that the life you portray on the outside, is only masking the truth.
I tend to be more of a - I am gonna tell you my honest opinion even if it offends you and you can be mad if you want but if you ask you shall receive kinda woman. I don't hide my past struggles, good or bad, from people because it molded me into who I am today. I may not be proud of who I used to be, but I do NOT regret it. I have lived. Even at my young age of 24. I went crazy and had so much fun and did things I probably don't remember because of stupid choices I made. But I do look back and I laugh and smile and say "Wow, I can't believe that was ever me. But damn...that was fun!!!". And I will tell you one thing...I may have been wild...but I was 18 when I found out I was pregnant and 19 when I had Cheyenne...and that child straightened my ass up!!!
I will never be rid of my red headed fiestyness though! ;)
Told you....Update..info...and random rants....your welcome! jk
