I have a lot of decisions I have to make in the next few weeks. The major one is when I am going back to work. I know that they need me because of short staffed reasons, but there was 8 months in advance of notice of when I was going to be out lol...so then again, I don't need to rush myself. If I rush myself, that could lead into taking the healing process a lot longer than it should. Do I want the money? Yeah...who doesn't...but I also have to look out for my health.
The second decision is what I am going to do about a bigger car...we just can't fit everything of two kids into my car including : 2 adults, 2 children, 2 carseats, 2 diaper bags, 2 strollers...yadda yadda yadda...I think my decision on that is...I will get a new car as soon as I start working again, so that I can make sure we aren't struggling to make a car payment while I'm out of work. Then that leaves me with what kind of car I'm going to get...pretty sure it is going to be a ford...lol for the sake of the boyfriend! :)
The last decision I have to make is about living room furniture...There is a sectional at big lots that I like a lot and it's pretty cheap, but the color is not my favorite. Then there is the Ashley one at Factory Furniture that we like, but it's about 400 more than the one at big lots but a beautiful color and will fit our room better. So that leaves me with cheaper vs. more expensive. But with having two young kids, I kind of don't want to get anything really nice because of the simple fact that they will make messes...oh this decision is the most painstaking for me to make lol and to think it's really one of those that is not a big deal.
I have other things on my mind that I need to do, but those will come with time and a lot of praying and having a lot of faith! So, for right now, I need to keep my chin up about the issues that really worry me, and let them work themselves out on their own.
For now, my to do list is pretty short....
1. call my lawyer to proceed with the rest of the divorce
2. finish laundry so bobby will have work clothes and riley will have night night clothes
3. pull out something for dinner
4. steam clean rest of living room floor?!?! i think so...
So, I'm thinking that I need to go to Greenville Tech tomorrow and have my transcripts sent to Upstate so I can attend in the fall. I tried it once before, but they sent me a check back to my house for the amount I paid to have my transcripts sent...BOO...so now I'm going to try again. Even though it really is a pain in my butt!
I also have to decide what I'm going to do about school in the summer. I want to take anatomy in the summer at Greenville Tech, but I have to see if they offer it in the summer. Since the summer is fast tracked classes, I'm also scared to take such a hard class in the short time alloted.. I guess I will talk to my dad tomorrow and see what he says. I want to take some basic "medical" classes, because that will help open up my horizons for my career in the future. If I just limit myself to certain classes, I can only do certain jobs, but if I minor in something medical along with my psychology degree, that will give me a better job in the future.
It really is amazing at how things change in your life. Bobby's mom really got me thinking into this. In the past 3 years, I have changed my life for the better not only for me, but for my children as well. I am closing a chapter in my life that was really negative, and the only thing that is keeping me from doing so right now is a court date. I'm working on fixing myself and getting all of the negativity out of my life, since my life is close to perfect now. There is no need to be negative when I have two amazing children and an amazing boyfriend who is ALWAYS there for me and will always love me. All I know is that 3 years ago, I would have never thought that I would be where I am right now: 2 children, the love of my life, an associates degree achieved, making the dean's list, getting accepted into a 4 year university, and having 2 amazing families watch me go through it all!!
Enough said for now...time to pick up and play house and maybe read some of my book! :)
Try Jennifer convertibles. Sections are really cheap although you may have to go out of town to get it. Also you could think about getting slipcovers until they get out of their messey stages. Just take it off, wash, and put it back on.
ReplyDeleteAlso I took anatomy in the summer and it sucked. But they do offer it. Try to get it at the simpsonville campus if you can. So much easier with porsha goudine (or something close to that). Good luck with everything!
