Yesterday was TV night!! AWESOME SHOWS LASTNIGHT!! I watch The OC, The Apprentice and ER!
WOOO LUKA AND ABBY!! YAAYY I have waited for that moment..LOL

Today was ANOTHER STUPID ASS WASTE OF TIME APPT. For Sonshine's speech..He had to do the SAME stuff he did 2 months ago for his assesment..UGH WTF? Just get him into speech already..
I just feel like no one gives a rats ass because it isn't there 4 yr old who gets so upset because lots of people dont understand him....UGH It was also an appt to see if he qualifies to be in the preschool at the local elementary school.. I just have a feeling he will be denied for that too. I sure hope not..keep us in your prayers..my boy really needs to be in preschool and speech!!
Well I am off, dont really feel like sitting at the computer..going to grab a dr. pepper and read the soap mags my Mom brought me..LOL I get them when she isdone!!
Oh and one more thing...
HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY PRINCESS!!!

::Happy Saturday::

IT'S SATURDAY!! I can't believe it is Saturday already... This week just flew right on by without me even seeing it...LOL
It is about 10:15 am right now, I am having my first cup o coffee..Hubby ran down and got me a coffee from Dairy Mart before he left for work ...WHAT A GUY...HEHEHEHE Ido have coffee here but I just love theirs!!
**********
So I was watching Dateline last night... Did anyone watch it? They were catching computer predators in the act.. Sick MFers!!! But it was so nice watching them get busted, now whether they get in trouble or not is another story but a few were fired or step down from their jobs... One was a Rabbi, another a teacher, one a ER Doc..They had OVER 19 guys show up at their sting house in 3 days.....OMG IT WAS JUST MESSED UP!!
The people at Perverted Justice.com (the site is not up at the moment so thats why it is not linked) anyway the people there at that website were working with Dateline to set these sickos up... One guy that showed up actually went back the very next day with the same exact screen name and wanted to meet a young boy at McD's and the dateline guy showed back up..LMAO It was great!!! The more of these sickos they expose the better...
It just makes me sick... I have a young son that enjoys the internet... He is not a chatter or doesn't even have anyone email him though he does have an email address!! He just loves to play games and search for information... His home page is Yahooligans so I really dont have to worry, the computer is openly in the kitchen and ofcourse I check to see whats going on a few times while he is on.. But he is always on the games..though now he is asking if he can give out his email to some friends at school.. I told him yes, BUT I have to look at the emails BEFORE you and it is NOT to be given to ANY adults, NOT EVEN your teachers! They can have mine NOT yours!! He agreeed or the answer would be no..lol They dont ever need to email him anyway! KWIM?
He is getting older and he does have my trust to be on the computer so I would like him to be able to experience a bit more of it, such as email and learning to type better etc..
I want to do that for a living SERIOUSLY.. I would act like a young girl or boy to put a sicko in prison! But like the lady on their said, she feels so gross after doing it because she HAS to have a smile on her face so they dont hear her sounding disgusted (while on the phone after chatting on the net)... That would be the downfall..But the more of these sick MFers that we can get rid of the better.. I am seriously going to look into how I can work to help in that area..If I can't work at the moment to help bring in actual income I would like to be working for a cause I support!
I just had to come on and get all that out..UGH IT MAKES ME SICK!! But I had to watch it, I am a Mom and they are everywhere!!!!

Welp off to clean..MAYBE..HEHE

::Depressed::

UGH!!! I hate this so much!!
I have been having a bout of depression for the past few months and it sucks... But I have been noticing that it is not just triggered because I get upset, It is being triggered by things at home...
I honestly dont understand why it is so hard to want to better your self, your home, your family...
I just want my home to be nice finally....Well I dont ever see that it will be.. UNLESS I DO IT ALL ALONE...Which really I can't... There are some things here I can't do...
I dont think I can take the boys bunk beds down...I can't fix the livingroom floor...There are just so many things that need to be done and they are not getting done.. Our car needs fixed..NOT DONE... Our hallway needs painted..NOT DONE.. The boys beds need to come down and their room done... NOT DONE.. My livingroom floor needs fixed in one area..NOT DONE... I understand there needs money to do alot of things but the only thing right now that takes money is fixing the car and the floor...Mortage for the trailer LATE.. Rent to the park owner LATE... Phone about to be shutoff and prbably same as elec..It is just horrible.. We haev to take my MIL's car back to her and that means ours needs to be fixed ASAP! Can't do that myself...
So I am just going to make a list of evrything in this house that needs done.. IF I can do it.. I WILL!!
I am no longer going to wait patiently... Hubby asks me all the time, why do you get so upset over these things..UM WELL ..Could it possibly be that I have been asking for a YEAR! For this shit to get done and it DOESNT!!
Hubby may read and this and he may not, I am not real sure if he reads my blog or not..but I hope if he does he will understand where I am coming from and get his shit together... He has had off of work the past 2 days and did NOTHING... Oh wait I change that, he did a few loads of laundry and piled them on the couch..NICE! So guess who gets to fold them..ME.. I have asked him over and over again.. PLEASE DONT DO THE LAUNDRY... It is to much for me to fold at once...it takes forever..let me do the laundry so I can fold it load by load... Do something I have been asking you to do..W hat does he do..THE F'ing Laundry!!!!!! Kidding me right!!!!!!! I say please dont do the stuff Ican do please do the stuff I can't...What does he do? NOTHING I ASK HIM TO!!! It is so sad.... I can't get a job till our car is fixed, or a new one which will never happen...I have to get some kind of income coming in because his job is not cutting it! He did finally get his first check but nothing got paid.. So we are even further behind than before..OMG I AM JUST SO SAD OVER THIS..And I dont know what to do
*************
The stupid ass speech people WONT Call us back.. My baby needs to get in there ASAP, He may not be able to start kindergarten next year if he doesnt get in, I call every couple of days and what do I hear? We will be getting a hold of you..Well I am here allday everyday and if not I have an answering machine..they are NOT calling... I feel so bad because he is just getting more and more fustrated because we dont understand everything..he is also starting to use his own sign language stuff to show us what he is saying or he will go right to what he wants...it makes me sad that I can't help him!!
********
Everything is just to much for me... My step sis has offered alot to come by and help me clean this shithole out but I just can't take her up on it...I hate having people here it is so embarrassing ... I have never felt this miserable and embarrassed in my life. I barly want to leave my house anymore I just dont want to do anything...
I dont know how else to get my husband to do the shit HE NEEDS to do!!
And Christmas coming..HA That is a joke and a half now.. I was starting to get ready to get into it and I just can't now... I just for once would like to hear the boys got the big things or even the little things they want... I wish for once I did not have to shop a few days before christmas..
Sonderful needs new clothes SO BAD... I get handmedowns for Sonshine but not Sonderful he is the biggest in the family, so there is no one to get them from... I can't use my c.s checks that I recieve for him on them because they haev to get us by...Just once I want to take him shopping and feel good..he has ONE pair of jeans that fit him good and ONE pair that is too small.... I HATE HATE HATE THIS....
