What the days!?!

Today and the last couple of days i have slacked not only on my blog but other things...

house work, homework, blah blah blah

School and life is kicking my butt!! But like my picture i just keep trying to smile!

it's really hard at times, seeing as Tuesday we had a pop exam,

yesterday i had to take the dog to the vet and that was a hefty bill :)

go to work,

I came home and started looking in a trash magazine and kinda got lost for about a half hour

before i thought i should look at my home work......

almost a hundred pages later, almost a full pot of coffee, some chocolate and star burst candies it was 2:30am.

The little one is still trying to get over the cold that was going around

and woke up just as i was laying down to sleep......

so i got back up and got the cough meds, a bit of warm water, inhaler, and vapor rub

and went to work to make him feel better so he could go back to sleep!

I finally looked at the clock at 3:15 that was the last i remembered.

uugghhh... 8:45 came early (thank god for letting the little one sleep in, he must have known mommy was tired)

Made a bowl of cereal, and toast for breakfast

threw a movie in for him and wished i could go back to sleep....

made some coffee for me, and then he said mommy i like black coffee

he wanted me to give him a cup of coffee like his papaw does! he is so funny sometimes i laugh so hard i cry!

got his bath done and dressed and off to school!!!!

Got to reading, had a few phone calls, more reading and homework...

a bit of studying for the test that we have tonight.

Now that all of my homework was done,

i thought i might need to put on some clothes and maybe fix my self up a little bit so i don't look dead :)

got the little one off the bus

thought that i might write a little blog,

made him a yummy snack of graham crackers and chocolate frosting and milk

the last part of Finding Nemo while i type this and he runs wild like a coyote!

Will be off soon to drop the little one with the fiance at school,

head to school for a test and some more learning,

and come home a hopefully GO TO BED!

I hope everyone has a sunny day!

Lazy Sunday

 I have been so busy and not feeling to good, that is why i haven't written a new.

My Sunday was filled with lots of cleaning and cooking

thank god i have a good man that will help with all the everyday things

Nice spaghetti, garlic bread, friends and family

we had a good dinner, with belly's stuffed we are all so tired

the little one is sitting with a friend watching Meet the Robinson's

almost asleep. My great man is sitting on the couch playing on his computer.

School is great and getting tough.

I woke up with almost the same dream twice this week

I was taking a test or something verbal, and i woke my self up with medical terms

I don't know if I'm physcing myself out or if I'm really just that crazy...

I told my grandma about the dream and asked her if she thought that was normal and she said that it probably was, i think that if i study more that i will eventually get

rid of some of the doubt that follows me around.

A lot of my family went to the pumpkin patch today, and they are all getting together

to have a nice dinner at my grandpas.

wish i was home to do this with them... but all i have to think about is in less than

2 weeks i will be touching down on an air strip at PDX!!!!

well for now that is all i will write

i will write more tomorrow!

Spaghetti and garlic bread,

Brittni

Airplanes

This Wednesday seem to come all too soon!(didn't it?)

This morning i was faced with a lovely 4 am serious headache....

none the less i couldn't sleep seeing as i had to get up and pee 3 times :(

I had a very good class last night and got a prize for realizing what made the scene unsafe!!! yay me!

We learn so much in such a short time that it's almost overwhelming.... but i am determined to get through this class and believe in my self!

On a side not i have to say that i am totally addicted to the song Airplanes by B.O.B

it is an amazing song and well anything that Haley Williams is in is great!

This song helps me on hard days.

especially when my grandma passed i really wanted nothing more than to be on a airplane.

To bad I'm a couple of weeks to late, but i cant tell you how so so so excited i really am to be getting the chance thanks to my lovely man to go home and visit!

This Wednesday will entail lots of things.....

homework

getting the little monkey on the bus

a run to the post office

a run to the bank (hopefully)

a run to the store for some things

(and for those of you who do not know i live in a rural area so it takes me like 30-40 Min's to get to the store)

speed back home so i can get the little one off the bus

make sure i get a quick shower

get ready for work

make some dinner so my boys can eat

go to work

come home and do more homework

and hope i get to be at a decent hour (ha ha ha )

Now off the boring things.....

I cant really say where I'm going to school only what I'm going to school for,

I'm doing a fast tracked course to be a EMT ( emergency medical technician) 

It has always been something that i have a had a passion to do,

the way i look at it is if i can help at least one person than i made the world that much better for the day

the reason i cant really say anything about where i am taking this is because we all found out on the first day of class that our medical director is not to fond of Facebook and Blog etc.

The last thing i would need is to get in trouble for saying something wrong

Well this will be cut a little short seeing as the little monkey boy just woke up and is hungry and cold and still hacking like crazy 

I must switch from the blogger to mom mode now!!!

Hope everyone has an amazing day,

lots of running and not enough time,

Brittni

Tired Tuesday

Oh this tired Tuesday, 7:45 came way to early this morning.

I found myself wide awake at 1:30 am still doing homework, i guess the 3 cokes and a Pepsi i had didn't do any good at getting me to sleep at a reasonable hour.

When i finally realized what time it was, i closed all my books and headed for my bed,

totally exhausted from all the terms and information zooming around in my head....

And of course just about the time i was about to fall fast asleep i hear my monkey hacking and restless in his bed. I felt so bad for him so i got up to check on him and he said "momma i don't feel so good" poor baby he was barley able to get that out.

Just as soon as he said that he rolled back over and was out like a light.

It is 12:23 and i have gotten no more homework done, than what was done last night.

I woke up to a great surprise left for me to find by my dumpster diving k-9

who is notorious for this same act all the time.

In all respect it was my fault i forgot to put the lid back on the trash can but come on pup,

please don't dig through and pull out every bit of trash in the can....

My little monkey is in his bed taking a nap so he can "get better mommy"?

it is out of the ordinary for him to take naps, so we had to justify this nap.

So instead of doing homework like i should be doing I'm typing this blog, I'm a horrible and chronic procrastinator. However i always some way some how get what needs to be done, done!!!

I'm not feeling to great and i really would rather take a nap alongside my little one

but i have this feeling that the nap may not last as long as i need to get all of the homework done.

And just as i was thinking about my best friend she just called....

Oh how i love talking to her it's almost like a breath of fresh air when we talk, i feel just a little closer to home when she calls.

we talk about everything and about nothing at the same time. I Just LOVE her to pieces!!!

She is so excited about me coming home!!!!

So on the last note of tired Tuesday's blog,

I hope everyone has a fun filled and sparkly day!

Lot of medical terms and a headache,

Brittni

  



My Very First Blog!!! A little about me.

Oh my very first blog, and can i say  i'm not to sure how i feel about it...
  I have been an avid kandee johnson blog follower for a while, and i think that is what made me want to start blogging.  
  I live in a small town that everyone knows every one's business.... I think I'm at the point where i just need to be able to say what i have to say and put it out there somewhere for maybe someone to read and be done with it.

  The last month has been incredibly difficult with family, life, work, school, bring a mom on top of it all.

I am a mom of the most wonderful son anyone could ask for. My precious little monkey just turned four, and it seems just like yesterday that i saw him for the first time. Being a mom is not easy, and no one tells you that or they do and you just don't believe them. (like right now i have a sick little boy a sick momma and just spilled my Pepsi all over the chair myself and a little on the laptop) oh joy!  My monkey is the best thing that ever happened to me i don't even know what my life would be like without him, in saying all that i love my life as a mom but it is not easy by any means.(until i talk to my sons father i will keep his name out of here and just call him my monkey:))

I am a student for not very long, but i had a great opportunity arise that i just felt i couldn't turn down. I was given some good information that i could get my school paid for and it was a fast track class that would have me done and into the medical field by Feb. who would turn that down?? i jumped at it head first. I had to give two days a week away to take this course and that was a big decision for me because i don't make a whole lot of money and i don't have a full time job.  this job has always been my dream and what better time than now to make the move, I'm 23 with a high school education and felt my clock ticking to get my butt moving ha ha.....

I am also a fiance to an amazing man who loves my to pieces. He is the best thing that has every happened to my self and my monkey. We met long before we ever got together and he always asked if he could have my number.... at first i was new to this town and didn't know what to do. i saw him from time to time here and there and kinda thought he was a bit of a creeper.... anyhow it was his winter break and he came in everyday to eat, he always made a sweet comment or just simply asked how i was doing. believe it or not it just being asked how YOUR doing meant a whole lot to me , probably more than he knew.  i finally gave him my number and thought what the heck ill give him a try. we started seeing each other and texting and one thing led to another and now we are engaged to be married next year!

 I do have a job as a waitress at a small middle of no where bar. I'm also their cook, and when i am needed i do a little bar tending. lets just say i could do just about anything in that place and know what I'm doing.... i love my job i get to be around lots of people and get to hear all the good juicy town gossip about who is doing who or, who is getting a divorce and who's crops are doing great and who's a failing who has no money and who's loaded etc etc etc!!! it is a good place to be because everyone loves everyone and would do just about anything for ya. 

So now to the good stuff! ha ha
   
I wanted to start this blog because i have a lot of things going on and don't have much time to really sit and talk about them because I'm always on the move.

In the last week and a half my dear grandmother died, which was so very hard for me because i am so far away from my true home where i was born and raised. this is the second grandmother that i have lost since i have been here and let me tell you how incredibly far away from home it really makes you.
I really struggled with that this last week, not being able to be there for my mom, dad, brother and sister who were all very upset about her passing. i felt like i was on a totally different planet than they were. All my family was really trying to make it as easy as possible for me to not be so sad about not being there, giving their kind words on my Facebook and via text. they are a great family and no one could ask for a better family than the one i have.
Work has been a totally different story and I'm so sick of working (i know who isn't?) and not every seeing my fiance, when i do its a quick kiss and off to class or work and when i get home its a quick kiss and a shower and to bed so i can get up and do the next day all over again.... Needless to say the last week and a half has been rough for all of us in this house.


On a happier note we just bought the tickets to go home an visit at the end of the month, and I'm sure i will blog all about that. It is 1:28 pm and i have gotten nothing done today but i did put in a load of laundry, so i guess i did something today!!!
The rest of my day will problaly go like this:
Get off the computer after posting this blog,
Switch the laundry,
Make my monkey eat something,
Figure out what the fiance is going to eat,
Try to do maybe a hour of homework,
Go to a employee meeting,
Come home and finish my homework, if i can even bear to read with my stuffy head....
Spend some time with the fiance,
Try to get rid the this horrible cold that has it's grips on the me and the little one..
And last but not least go to BED!!!!


     I hope everyone is having a great day filled with sunshine and fall colors!

           lots of tissues and cold medicine,
               Brittni
