I'm winning

Every year to make football season more fun for me, and to make me actually want to watch anybody else but the Colts play. Vaughn and I print up the whole seasons schedule and then we go each week and pick the teams we think are going to win the game. At the end of the season( in January) the winner, or person who picked the most teams that won through out the season gets a massage from the looser.

GUESS WHAT?!? So far I'm winning.Granted we are only in week 11, but I have won 9 of the 11 weeks, tied once and lost once. For someone who really doesn't get the whole concept of Football. I think I am doing really good.

Can't wait for that massage.

Feel like my dreams are being flushed down the drain

Okay so as you may or may not know I want to go back to school to become a Medical Assistant. However due to some pretty harsh times this last year, I dropped all my classes. Now I have a hold on my account that totals 1,241.10 . Hold on though there's a little bit of light at the end of the tunnel.

My job is willing to pay the 241.10, as well as paying all the expenses it will take to do the Medical Assisting program. But ( and trust me it's a big one) I have to come up with the rest of the money soon, because classes start in January and I can't register until this is paid off.


I am NOT posting this to ask for help. I will figure this out on my own. I am just posting this to vent my frustration of being somewhat close to my dream but having it ripped out of my hands because of the loss of my kids and signing adoption papers depressed the heck out of me, and made it hard to even want to get out of bed. Sorry but it just doesn't seem fair that when I appealed this and explained my circumstances( with a lot of proof) they denied the appeal.

All I can do know is pray that Heavenly Father will help me find a way out of this mess. So that my dreams can finally come true, and I can feel like I have made something of myself.

What a surpise

Wow, imagine our surprise when we got a phone call from Sister Day saying she had some stuff at her house that was dropped off at her house and meant for us. Well when we met her at the back gate of our apartments. She explained that the Cub Scouts were doing a food drive and thought of us for Thanksgiving. So we know have a turkey and a lot of the fixings for Thanksgiving.


Thanks a lot to all those that participated in this, we really do appreciate it.

GOD BLESS

Undefeated Colts!

I'm really not all that into football but I do LOVE the Colts.I just want to give Kuddos to Payton Manning and the rest of the Indianapolis Colts for playing such a great season and working so hard to remain undefeated.

What a disaster!

AAAHHH! Okay so we were supposed to feed the Elders tonight at around 5:30pm. But because I had to work until 4:30pm, and Vaughn had to get two new tires that actually fit and looked decent. No one was home to shop for dinner or start cooking until almost 5:05pm. So needless to say we were hurrying as fast as we could to make Vaughn's famous burgers. Which ended up taking WAY TO LONG! We didn't sit down to eat until 6:30.

I am so totally embarrassed, and to make matters worse Brother Curtis seemed a little cheesed off when he called and we told him we were just sitting down to dinner. Next time this happens ( hoping it won't) we are just going to get Burger King or something.

Made up my mind

I have made up my mind. Decided to go ahead and take the 24th off because not only can I see Misty( my friend that recently moved from Japan to Mexico and haven't seen in over 5 years). But I also need to go talk to Pima Community College and see what it's going to take to get back in to school. I need to do this soon because the next round of classes is in January and there's things I have to do before I can get in.Plus with the Holidays coming up the campus is going to be closed soon. Bonus to this whole thing is that my job says they will pay for my classes and books when I finally do get in, because they really want to see us all achieve our goals and are willing to help in any way they can! How cool is that?
