Why didn't I go to college?

I am so irritated with my job. I can only work so hard but when the people in charge are weak and incompetent the whole workplace is affected horribly. I am not saying I could do a better job (actually I might!) but I also do not have the proper education that my bosses have. They really should know better how to run a nursing facility. The whole place is going to crap. I am underappreciated and over worked and I am pretty fed up. But I don't knoe what to do next. I hate to job hop because the next place just might just be worse. I just wish they wouldn't be so short staffed all of the time. Morale is at an all time LOW.
Serves me right for not going back to college. Ick.

Maybe tomorrow will be a better day.

my word cloud


weird.

I highly dislike car salesmen!


I wanted to go looking for cars today but David says that he is too busy today and might not get off of work until late. Mewanwhile I have to start my car with a screwdriver, ick. Mom has even said that she will watch if if I need her too. I simply don't want to go car shopping alone...car salesmen would see me and eat me up. Have I mentioned how much I dislike car salesmen!!!!!David called back and said maybe we car go to some locall places tonight and see what we can find. I think he felt bad for me since my car is in such bad shape. I just want to get it over with.

We just got back from Mamaw's house. We had such a nice time ,as always. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful grandmother. I hope I am as healthy and active as she is when I am 78 years old. I hope I have such a great attitude. I noticed that Seth says "Bye" with her North Carolina accent! Instead of pronouncing it like "Buy" ,he says it more like "Bah" . I think it's so cute!
We also saw my Dad there and my brother, Sean. They are always happy to see Seth. Especially my dad. He just loves his first grandchild!!!Then my mom also called my cellphone while I was there. Shoot, I might as well call my sister and I will have spoken to my entire immediate family today!

The horn on the bus goes...

Beep,beep,beep. Beep, beep, beep . Beep, beep, beep. the horn on the bus goes Beep, beep, beep all through the town.

"The Wheels on the bus" has been Seth's favorite book today. I cannot tell you how many times I read it! When I get to the above mentioned verse I would "beep" Seth's nose. By the time it was bed time he was beeping his own nose over and over again..only it sounded more like "dee, dee" as he pressed his nose.
He is absolutely adorable.

more pics




I've been trying to post pics..


But it isn't working for some reason. I'll figure it out one of these days!
I DID IT!!!!!!

I guess that I might be getting a new car

The starter on my car is welded on creating a difficult situation when attempting to replace it. We either bring it to the Ford dealership and pay a fortune or deal with purchasing a new car. I guess that there are worse things in life than making car payments. Yuck. I hate car salesmen. David found a used Nissan listed for under $10,000 in Fort Myers so we might look at getting that one. We will see.
Seth and I will be going to mamaw's house in the AM and that should be nice. I love to visit with her and she loves to watch Seth run all over.
These four days off have been wonderful, I needed to get away from work for a few days. Unfortunately David's been off ,too. It drives me nuts to watch him sitting around all day. I keep giving him things to do. He never complains because he knows these things need to get finished.
We got our pics developed today...

The cat

We decided to name her "EVE" since she sleeps all day and then goes crazy at night. Also after " The three faces of Eve" the old movie about the woman with multiple personalities. This cat had several! Anyway we had her declawed since she was clawing evrything in the house all night and then she started meowing all night , driving us CRAZY!!!! When we purchased her we were told that she had already been spayed...turns out they misssed an ovary. So she went into heat and we had to have exploratory surgery done on her to remove the ovary. Maybe that is the only reason that she was so wacky at night. But I'm not going to change her name... David had suggested Monica ( since our other cat is Phoebe) I said " then should we name the snakes Chandler and Ross?" Ha HA I am such a dork!

Four days off...

To day is the first of four days off I requested so that I could destress from my work. Today we met one of my patients and her private aide Tammy for lunch at the Ice Cream Shop on the campus of South Port, I had a BLT and clam chowder...Seth was too busy exploring to eat. He was running every which way looking all around at the landscaping and the fountains. Climbing over the chairs and looking in the windows of the buildings. The elderly residents thought he was very cute. I'm assuming that they don't see many 16 month olds around there.
Then he sat on Ruth's lap while Tammy and I pushed her wheelchair all around the campus and took her for a nice long walk, Ruth loved it. She kept kissing the back of his head and he kept pointing at everything "dat!" and "see it" to the birds and he especially loved the fountains. So cute. We had a good time.
David took my car to be aligned today. H4e stopped at Walter's to get his check first and then my car wouldn't strat. Turns out some piece in the starter was broken so now he has to fix that first. Blech.. Yes, I know I need a new car. I am certain that we could afford some payments if necessary but I simply don't wanna!!!! I do not want another bill to pay unless I got rid of some we already owe!! I owe $5,800 on my credit card. Yuck!! Then we have the SBA loan that is $100.00 a month and the loan that is $100.00 month. The rest is utilities, ins. mortgage, necessities.
I wish that David made a thousand dollars EVERY week, then I definitely would be getting a new car!
