Well, I have only posted once but here goes. Alot has changed since I last posted here, over a year ago.
Yes, I was able to pay my rent and I still live in these apartments which I despise due to a number of things, first and foremost; I lived in a 3 bedroom house in N. AZ before ever moving to Tucson to raise my two boys, alone. A rough road but a confidence building one. Losing my job in October 2005 actually was a huge blessing. I was able to find work w/ a nursing agency, created my own days when I work and I make alot more than I used to when I do work. Sadly, my son's pre-school opens at the same time my shift at the hospital starts and they have asked that I not return until I can get to work on time. Whateva....another blessing in disguise, now I have more time for my children and can pursue my jewelry design and maybe I can run Race for the Cure next month.
I have a seat in the nursing program and am finished w/ my pre-reqs for that. I no longer despise my ex-husband and we are close friends. Strange but true.
Life is my oyster and I intend to savor every last morsel.

my first day....
I love to rant, but because I have children and I think my ten year old is pretty tired of listening to me, I've decided this is probably a much more healthier way to air my frustrations.
Right now, I am unemployed and living off of unemployment, child support and college loans. My latest and greatest frustration this week is figuring out exactly when I get my first installment of my college loan. I can't get a straight answer out of anyone from financial aid at the college I attend. It is driving me quite crazy because this is the first month since becoming ungainfully unemployed in October last year I haven't been able to pay my rent and if you check your calendar Febraury 1 is right around the corner. Ummmmm...it's a bit concerning.
Adding to my frustration is my 3 year old asthmatic son who is stricken with croup right now and can't sleep w/o coughing continually. I am not frustrated for myself, but for him and wish he could get some rest. Poor guy is on more drugs than Kate Moss' ex. He was pretty hopped up in the store today when we went out shopping. He didn't listen well so opted to stick him in the shopping cart in the next store.
When my son is sick like he is now I want to grab my ex's seemingly non-existent balls and light them on fire. It's not fair that kid's suffer because their parents are spineless wimps. It really drives me crazy and I really do wish ill upon the bastard.
That's all I've got time for...must clean house....grandma's is coming and quite frankly, I must get organized for my own mental health.
