ABC..I AM A STUDENT!

Yes! Its official! I am now a student! I am going for Medical Assisting. It is a 10 month program, if all goes well I will graduate in June! I started my first day of class on Monday.

So far so good. But the damn teacher put the wrong schedule on the paper when we went to register. My mom made her nursing schedule compared to that and took of Tues/Wed/Thurs so when I am in class from 8 to 3:30 she can watch my little Sadie girl. And Monday and Fridays would be online. I come to class the first day and we are doing CORE until September 8 and then that is when Medical Assisting really starts. That schedule will be for that but until then I am not really in class only next Monday and Thursday for lab. But we managed this Monday with my dad watching her part day and my sister the other. We will manage!

Come late November/Early December, I will have clinicals. Monday and Tuesday are clinicals, Wednesday and Thursday in classroom and Friday online! SO I will have a full schedule! This is all new to me since I havent been in school for 4/5 years! Getting back in the grove of learning to study and do assignments! Yikes! but all with an 11 month old who keeps me VERY VERY busy. I dont know how I will do it all but I HAVE NO CHOICE. I want to get out of here SOMEDAY and be able to support myself and my little girl!

So If I am MIA for a bit, that is why. I am officially a student and I couldnt be more happier!

Birthday Extravaganza Plans!!

WHO IS EXCITED TO BE TURNING 24???? THIS MAMA IS!!!!!

Wanna know something extra special? My best friend Bonnie and I share the exact same birthday!!! Both are turning 24! Whoop whoop! We have been best friends for prob just two years now but it feels like we have been forever. I met her in 8th grade. We had the same history class in middle school. We did a project together, went over to her house once to do it and that was it. After that we just remained acquaintances I guess you can say. Saw her in highschool waved said hi type stuff. Come out of highschool, we got reconnected on myspace, I was pregnant with my sweetpea Naomi then. We decided to meet up and went to local bookstore. I then asked her if she felt okay to help me at an appointment of mine since I had both babies-was a nanny at the time. She came and assisted with them at my 28 week apt. Lord let me tell you, she was sent to me at the right time. And well rest is history. Weve been so close ever since. I am truely blessed to have her in my life. She is so genuine, hilarious and has a giving heart. We will be best friends forever!

So, well her parents made reservartions for a very fancy and yummy steak house I hear about a lot from my bestie. They invited me and I was thrilled to be able to go! Never been to a high class type place. She raves about the bread, asparagus and wine! Awesome combo! So I will be joining them and family for dinner!

Then I get a text from my best friend saying she wishes we could go out after dinner-she explained to be her parents like to have leisurely dinners so wed prob be there from 8 to 10:30 or whatever. Which I dont mind. Just got to load up on the wine :) or drinks! I then get a text saying her mom is offering to use her points and get us a hotel!!! So she was able to make reservations for a BEAUTIFUL high class hotel on Ft Lauderdale Beach! WE ARE BOTH BEYOND EXCITED! Cant stop talking about it. So thankfully I have amazing friends who said theyd watch my little misses Sadiekins for me! My friend Kalie babysits her when I go out usually with my bf. So she knows her well and I woild feel comfortable leaving her over night. This will be her first sleepover! Ah!

I will be picked up around 2/3 by my best friend and her brother and we will go check into the hotel and hang out there until dinner time! Then after dinner another friend of ours will be meeting up and the REAL festivites will begin! Drinks drinks and more drinks! Mama has to live it up because I start school that following Monday after my birthday!

I am so excited! This week and month is a busy month and full of fun stuff! I be getting my hair did by an aveda friend coming out to my house Monday morning! Tuesday I have a school apt to finalize financial aid and get books and what not. Wednesday, I will be meeting with a dear friend at the beach. Her sweet son's angelversary of a year is August 17, and instead of being down at home she decided to make a nice day and invite family and friends to beach. I love her .

Then come Saturday is the BIRTHDAY BASH! :) must go shopping for hot outfits!

I will leave you with some pictures..me as a youning! Doesn't Sadie look just like her mama?!? ;)

Happy weekend everyone!























BEYOND EXCITED!!!

I confess...











I connfess: I am well *used* to be a HUGE neat freak. After Naomi passed away, I kind of stopped caring. I didn't do anything really. Which is understandable, right? Well after months, I finaly gave in a little and did things here and there. And Nowadays, its getting back on and worse. BUT EXCUSE ME FOR LIKING A CLEAN HOUSE OR ORGANIZED CABINETS AND EVERYTHING IN ORDER! Okay, yes I am 24, living back at home, and not paying rent, so just because I have always been a helper, without being asked, I ALWAYS do dishes, always do laundary, and try and keep house tidy. But 4 other people live here too you know. They both have arms and legs. A fully capable body to help around the housse. "Family" key word here=help around house too! I wake up and I feed my little girl sometimes me, and then I get to it. I do dishes left over from nightm put dishes away, put in laundary, sweep and mop the floor because I refuse to let Sadie crawl on this dog haired/dandruff floor, GROSS I know. Well its getting old. I have a 13 yr old brother who I told to my mom that he needs to start learning responsiblities. He sits on the computer anx xbox ALL. DAMN. DAY. NO lie. He gets up to use restroom and eat and thats it. His friends will sometimes come over and they play it all too or swim or play basketball then its back on the game. But come on CLEAN UP AFTER YORUSELF. Crumbs and all! Help me out a little! UGH! You see dishes that can be put away? Why not help me for a chance? I am always nice to that kid. I also have been organizing the kitchen cabinet and fridge. BUT THIS FAMILY SOMEHOW UNORANIZES IT! It is pissing me off. Yes I may have some OCD but come on, a CLEAN HOME IS A HAPPY HOME! The first shelp I have baby food, formula, and all cereals. Second I have pasa and what not. Third shelf is baking stuff like flour, sugar, yadayada, the last is misc. And somehow they mess it all up! I dont know about you but I CANT STAND MESSES! THings laying around the house like from my fathers shoes out of place with his socks thrown about, his plate left in his tv area, like COME ON PICK UP AFTER YOURSELF! Things out of place, I just cannot stand clutter. YES with a child and baby that comes with its terrritory I dont mind that as much really, but other stuff, come on. HELP OUT a bit here !? Ugh. Felt better to get that out.

I confess: I listen to Pandora radio on my iphone all day with Sadie. When we are in the house, I just keep it up on the bar stool area and listen to Top Pop Hits. It gets me through the day damn it! Besides, I have found myself a little dancer-aka miss thang Sadie! She really knows how to get down! Haha, and I have NO clue where she gets it from, so not "she got it from her mama" type stuff. Wont see me dancing like that haha, I wish! But yes, I dont know about you, but music always puts me in a good mood, a feel good mood. It helps me RUN, oh boy, does it help! So thanks Pandora, youre awesome! It goes with me everywhere, in the house, in the car, on a run-everywhere! :)

I confess: I am addicted to facebook. Who isn't? I am on that damn thing checking it like its going to go off the face of the earth any minute. I NEED TO BREAK THAT HABIT. Like seriously. I won't die if I dont know what helf of the people I could really care less about are thinking or doing. But yes I agree, its good way to keep up to date with others everyone has busy hectic schedules these days yet we still have time to update and catch up on our friends' lives! I admit I probably wouldnt have talked or reconnected with a few if it wasnt for facebook. I remember I had a MYSPACE back then and shortly after Naomi passed away my sister asked me if she can make me a facebook. I thought, wth? Um no, I already have a 'myspace'. Why have two things of the same? Well I later caved in, and well deleted myspace and now I have this lovely thing. It will have to come to less once I start school in oh let me say less than 2 weeks, AH! I cant be worried about people's "minds" when I have to be worried about studying, getting assignments done and getting good grades. I can do it! I think...;)

I confess: I am obsessed with the lottory, powerball, and scratch offs! I really do not know what got me into it. I guess I am addicted to..losing? I buy those damn scratch offs at least 3/4 times a month. And honestly? I DONT have money for that. You have no idea how b-to the roke I am! Its sad. Yet I just "think" if I keep playing, I am bound to win something. Know that saying? "Gotta be in it to win it?" Like tonight, is the $220 million dollar POWERBALL. I did some research a few days ago, I always would get the machine picked numbers. Well thatm no more. I happened to take the tips from the research and well, I ended up getting the powerball number correct AND a single number. Won $3! haha. Its a start right? Yes I know I have 1 and a gazillion trillion chance of winning, but, YOU GOTTA BE IN IT TO WIN IT! My dad won $6000. Also, had he had $20 on him for a pool at work, he could have won 66 mil or something like that. I told my best friend for this lotto we need a pool going. Someones gotta give! Oh, and I would be the MOST generous person. I told my mom and


she even knows I would. I am a single mom, I need something damn it. Life aint easy, I am making it somehow.

I confess-I love blogging. I have to get better at it tho. I would love to write more but I got a fussy baby, and I think I better attend to her! Until then-ciao!

August already?!? smh.

I had been meaning to write this post for like a week now. Kept pushing it off and off and you know how that goes. I love blogging I do! I just wish I was able to write better and have better quality photos to share! That would mean I would need a new digitial camera! Hint..my 24th (ahhh!) birthday is in 14 days!!! So if any of you fellow bloggers wanna chip in and send this awesome a decent camera, Id love you forever! ;) jk! I have my Iphone which takes pretty good pictures but i have seen other peoples work and boy is it beautiful!

Speaking of birthdays-AUGUST is full of them! I have in order, my best friends mothers birthday, the 13th, my mothers the 18th, MY birthday AND besties 24th birthday on the 20th, my dear friend Laura's on the 27th, and my nephew on the 30th who will be ONE! Talk about wishing there were such a thing as money growing on tree$!!! I have lots to shop for very soon! I ALSO have a beautiful little girl named Sadie Marie's FIRST birthday to plan. Yes, I know its like a month or so away you must be thinking you plan months ahead of time. But me, I am very low on mula :(. Its embarassing. And my damn wishful thinking that some miracle will happen with me winning big on the lotto, well I mise well kiss goodbye! I have had NO money coming in since April 24, 2009. Since the unexpected emergency with my first daughter Naomi. I have babysat and cleaned here and there but thats just not enough to hold on to. I must admit, i have a VERY bad spending habit. It is so sad and scary. I can not hold on to anything for the hell of me. It is actually getting me worried. I have SO much I need to do--save up for my own car, one day SOON i hope to move the he-- out of here, and be able to support my daughter and i, be able to not worry if my account has money. Just very sad and I need to get with the program! Yes my parents help out to an extent, but cant forever. I dont want that either. I want to provide everything and do for me! Anyways--off topic here! So yes, I am thinking of maybe a get together at my house with friends and family. Dont know what theme just yet. Maybe butterflies and rainbows since she is my rainbow baby?! We shall see! I just wish I had money to go big! :( i know they dont know or remember anything but the first is the first cant get that back!

Wanna hear something mean and messed up?! One day a week or two ago I was taking a walk with my sister and our dog, and we were talking and she happened to ask me about my boyfriend. She asked if he had slept over. She is 15. Shes a bright girl. I usually would lie about that but i am 24. I laughed and said yes he did. My parents were out of town, they like him and have met him but my mother is very old school and just frowns upon that big time. But also knowing my sister is here she shouldnt see that either. But she happened to be gone that day as well. So I didnt see a problem, after all , i am of age! Right! Well my sister happened to tell me there are cameras in the house. I go what?! She said dad didnt tell you? I go UM NO?!?!. She also got me to admit to me going into her room and borrowing her clothes. She told me the camera is near my brothers room and her room and my room are in view. She started to get heated about me going in there. Well i kept saying how is that fair about a camera blah blah i am 24 and if its for me thats RIDICULOUS! well just the other day I was in kitchen and she all of a sudden goes "there are no cameras Jill". My mouth dropped. That little shit caught me made me bluff. And pointed out the little snitch about the clothing AND how my parents knew about him sleeping over was my BROTHER. my 13 yr old brother who is on the computer ALL DAY LONG or in his room playing XBox in his OWN little world. I always thought he never pays attention to stuff. Well, there goes his clean laundary I do! Ha. I have never did anything to that kid, always buy him food and do his laundary. Made me very annoyed. So when my mom texts me asking how things are going or whats going on i so badly want to say "why dont you ask your reporter, Jack?" ugh!!! She doesnt know that I know this. Just lovely. I am NOT the 15 yr old here. I am doing what i am supposed to be for once, will be attending school in 2.5 weeks, I take care of my daughter, i do housework every single day, i am very responsible, I have an amazing boyfriend, now WHY do they have to bug me for that?!

Ah! Just ONE more rant I must get off my chest! So like I said earlier my birthday and school are coming up VERY quickly. The other day I saw a commercial about Marco Island. That is about an hr and a half from me and I hear is SO beautiful, prettier than here and the keys! I know of a couple friends who have went and even have houses there. I would LOVE to go. I told my boyfriend and he suggested we go for a weekend. I told my mom thinking "yet not thinking" i should know my mom. If she would watch Sadie so I can have a nice birthday weekend before school on the 22. Well her response was "Jill, you guys are dating. Not married. i am sorry but I dont promote that." umm WTH. are you serious I was wanting to say?!

I again, am HOW OLD? I GAVE BIRTH TO TWO GIRLS, been married, yes didnt turn out so hot, but I have my girls. And I cant go away for a weekend! i KNOW it had to do with God related Catholic stuff. I cannot tell you how annoyed and upset and angry ai was and still am. Like seriously? Even my dad, offered to give us the camper. Ahh. So that is a NO go. Just thanks Mom. Ill remember this.

Boo, hope all are having a great weekend. I shall have a drink right about ..now!

Life Lists

So I have created a mini to do list before I leave this earth..I SO would love to learn to do some type of dance. I danced when I was a little girl, but otherwise, I am not a dancer. Surprised? Think again. I always wished I could or had some rhythm. I don't haha. This white girl can't dance but let me tell you, my little 10.5 month old sure moves her little body as mommy has pandora playing all day long to get through the day! It's too cute! Today I even witnessed her doing a one hand up in the air and shaking it type of thing. Yes, you guessed it mamas mouth hit the floor. She SURE AS HE'LL don't get that from me! Haha. Give me a few drinks..then we can start talking! ;)

I'd Also love to road trip somewhere..possibly VEGAS! I had been there when I was 18 years old with my dad and sister, for a birthday type gift. But come on. What's there to do at 18?! NOTHING. So one day I plan on taking a road trip..somewhere ..preferable sin city! :)

Do any of you have life to do lists?! Sorry but couldn't think of anything else to call them! Haha.

Any one can surely poor out tips on hair and make up stuff! If I wasn't blind or not talented I could do it all. I keep meaning to YouTube these things but I don't. I am so sick of wearing my hair "scrunched" all the tine with gel and hairspray. Yes it's a very quick and easy thing to do but it's so blah and my hair has like NO volume. I want something DIFFERENT! and makeup! I want it all but just want a different every day look ! Too bad I can't afford a make up artist! ;)
