Life's been crazy, I've missed a few days I've been disappointed, Excuses have been made It's funny how responsibility shifts I thought I was the daughter? Nevermind, I'll raise my brother. Maybe a midlife crisis will bring clarity I hope you love your grandson more on the other side. I'm tired of being the only one trying and blamed.  I'll call it even if you just stay.

Blessings in disguise

It's no secret that life has moments of chaos, hardship, and loss. Recently, my paid-off car completely broke down on me. Transmission =  DEAD. Super unfortunate! HOWEVER, this could not have happened at a better time. As unfortunate as this epidemic is and how stir-crazy quarantine is making me feel, I could be under obligations that would make the need for me to get a car, immediate. I will be starting a new nanny job, that I can take my son with me too, which is a blessing in itself. However, it won't start until life returns to some sense of normalcy. Which will give my family the perfect amount of time to be ready to purchase a car. We also have moved in with family, which has become a tremendous blessing and sacrifice. We give up our privacy, combine three households, so we can combat debt and save for a house, and have the resources for a new vehicle. Not to mention the free childcare! My fiance's job has been awful since this epidemic began, the number of electi

Almost forgot!

I can't believe I almost forgot to write something. With all this unpacking, party planning, and starting on homework. We've been debating on having my sons party because of the virus. However, I would hate to postpone it. We asked our friends and family what they thought about postponing. Only a couple people decided they wouldn't be able to make it and that is totally ok! We decided to do it and enjoy the time we have with close friends and family. I'm so excited for this event!

Don't throw your pearls at swine

Sometimes people make mistakes. They say or do things that may hurt each other's feelings or cause them to be upset. It happens and it is a huge part of life. At some point in your life, someone is bound to hurt you, intentionally or unintentionally. Nothing agitates me more than an unforgiving person or a person who is petty with their forgiveness. I'm a firm believer of treat people the way you want to be treated. I'm also a firm believer of if you want to be forgiven then you should forgive. It's not right to demand it and never give it. From this most recent experience, I've learned not to apologize to people who are petty. As long as someone isn't taking actions against your safety, mental or physical health, you should try to forgive. It's really disheartening when you try to be a good person and are treated like garbage for it. I'm not going to beg for your forgiveness and I shouldn't have too.  I've forgiven your mistakes and shortcomin

Moving day

Yay we moved! I'm exhausted and sweaty. Time to slowly unpack with a relaxing glass of wine (:

I can't even buy groceries

There were two accidents right down the street from my apartment. I assume it is because everyone is in such a huge hurry.  The panic taking place where I live is insane. No water. No bread. No eggs. No meat. No toilet paper. No paper towels. Diapers, wipes, and formula are all running low. I know it will eventually stabilize. Nonetheless, this reaction amazes me. Maybe there's something I'm missing? I'm hoping it stabilizes by the time my little one has their first birthday. Terrible timing, I hope all goes well.  I hope that everyone takes care of themselves, and helps out their neighbors, strangers, and friends if they can. I really hope this epidemic ends soon. I hope that it doesn't become as big as it feels. I hope all loved ones are well and accounted for at the end of this. I hope if there's any opportunity I see to help, I jump in without hesitation and do the best I can. 

Extended Spring Break!

I'm excited about this extended spring break. There are so many things I want to accomplish; moving, finish planning my son's birthday, finish my son's scrapbook, and relaxing. However, I'm also kind of worried. Were suppose to finish the semester out online, but I'm worried about how it's going to impact the quality of my education. I'm also worried about field hours. I want to graduate and be a good teacher for my students, so i'm worried about not being prepared. I don't think i'm going to completely suck at it. I'll be as good as any first year teacher, i hope haha. I'm definitely thankful for an extension on this vacation because my life is so busy lately. So please don't get me wrong. I'm just wondering how all this is going to play out and what are the costs?  I also am worried about the health industry. My fiance works in medical sales, and he frequently assists doctors in surgery while they are using the products he
