Constant Drama
No Remarks |I’m 4 centimeters dilated so far, but the baby’s face is facing my tummy instead of my back. Come on now little boy stop being so difficult! If he was facing my back I’d go right into full labor and this pregnancy can be over. With him in that position it will not only prolong the pregnancy, but the labor as well.
My midwife gave me some techniques to get him to turn. Hopefully he won’t be so darn stubborn and turn soon like tonight so I can get this over with.
My car is finally finished! I got it back today and man there was a lot of stuff wrong with the car. T.K.P. really gave me a piece of junk for as much as they charged for it. Word of advice…”Don’t buy “Buy Here Pay Here” cars EVER!!” Even the mechanic that worked on it agreed. Here’s a list of all the shit that was wrong with that car:
- Tune up
- Spark plugs
- Brakes
- Rear hub bearings
- lug nuts
- struts
- tires
- brake hose
- Electrical system
- Passenger door (wires, leaking water)
And that’s just a general list of things because I don’t know the details of each part. I’ve only had that car for almost 2 years. There is no way all this stuff can be wrong with it because of me. It was a piece of junk when I bought it.
Earlier today I got into with maintenance because Destin almost fell out the window last week. He was looking out the window and then the screen, for the 4th time came dislodged from the frame again! The screen went tumbling to the ground and stayed there for 2 days. No one even attempted to fix it. They just let it sit there until Jea’neene said something to them about it because I’m tired of complaining about the same shit to them just to get stupid, defensive letters in return. (more…)
Man…
No Remarks |I have not been feeling well at all…
Thursday I had all this pelvic pressure and it was very uncomfortable to walk. If I had to go pee real bad it just increased the pressure and made it almost painful! I couldn’t even leave work because my car is in the shop and who knows when all the work is going to be completed on that car. Hopefully I can get my car back before this month is over.
I wanted to leave so bad because I was very uncomfortable so today I didn’t even go in. I just couldn’t bear to be there and have to suffer like that again.
Sometimes it’s even hard for me to get up because of all the pressure.
I’ll be so glad when this pregnancy has finally come to an end…
Tired Tired Tired
No Remarks |Today I finally completed my new theme so Sweet Vanilla Sugar won’t be down for anymore days. Instead of using a table which would have caused me to do all the CSS over, I used float which is what I was using before. The only problem is in IE7 it doesn’t ever (like always) read the stylesheet right causing the content of my blog to have a huge margin at the top causing visitors to have to scoll down to view my entries. I hate IE so I added a code that only appears in IE browsers encouraging visitors to download FF(Firefox) which is way better anyway.
Internet Explorer is the only browser that is always giving web-designers such a hard time. That’s why it took me 2-3 days to complete my theme. I was trying to get my theme to look the same as it looks in FF, but it was no use. I use correct CSS and HTML that passes all validation errors and IE still fails to view my blog theme correctly.
I’m so tired today. I hate coming here. It was raining really hard on my way here and my car is not in the best shape being that it is used. When I move to Florida and start working I’m going to lease a new car for 2 years. I’m sick of fixing this piece of junk. The electrical system is all fucked up and the tires are really bad making it very dangerous to drive in bad weather like today. Also the door on the passenger side needs to be sealed because it leaks a bit when it rains. I’m not fixing this dumb car. It’s not even worth the trouble.
I’m about to leave early today because I’m really tired and my ligaments are really sore. I can’t wait until this is over because I am so tired of being tired of being pregnant. I’m also tired of driving down here and almost getting in an accident daily because people just can’t seem to drive right no matter what. Yesterday I had two different people drive in front of me while I was driving straight almost causing me to slam into the side of them. Another person was in the right lane and needed to merge over and I was in the left. He tried to drive really fast so he could squeeze over in front of me when he was suppose to yield. Really stupid right?
I was so irritated by the way people drive I drove fast on purpose to keep him from performing such a dumb stunt and if he would’ve ran into the wall because he’s so stupid then so be it. I’m not going to allow you to injure me or my unborn child because of your reckless driving. I’m tired of the way these people drive everyday.
It’s a Boy….Again
No Remarks |Well now I know the sex of the baby and it’s not what I hoped and prayed for. I guess God doesn’t want me to have any girls or someone whom I can relate to.
It’s another boy…Oh well.
I guess it’s what’s meant to be because this is the last child I am having. After everything that I’ve been through in this pregnancy I am not having any more children especially with the cost of living, gas prices and food constantly going up. Three boys *sigh*…Elijah really wanted a sister too and when I told him it was yet again a boy he then said, “Well after this baby, then you can have a girl baby.” Poor Elijah…I’m not having any more children so he’ll only have brothers. I guess my sister will be the lucky one blessed with girls so I can just enjoy watching her daughter(s) grow up.
Today I got a 3-D ultrasound so I was able to see my son’s face and genitals. Here’s a pic of his face:

He looks just like Destin with Jeremy’s lips.
And of coarse the winning photo:

There’s no doubt that this is a boy.
What to do… What to do…
No Remarks |Workers compensation is getting on nerves with the tardiness of my payments being received. I started looking for a job yesterday because I’ve had enough of them. I applied for several positions at Whole Foods (an organic and natural foods grocery store) that starts at $10/hourly. I also drove out to the airport and applied there at the Avis Rental Car Company as a Service Specialist (preparation & maintenance of the vehicles). Today I’m looking for some more places to appply that pay’s no less than $10 at full time of coarse.
I called workers Comp and tried again to get the monay situation fixed. Then I was told that as soon as I began VOC Rehab again I will be getting paid $342 a week or $684/biweekly. Let’s see…that’s only $8.55 an hour! It’s better than $452, but that ain’t shit. If I work full time at Whole Foods in the floral, produce or cashier department full time at $10.00 an hour that will be about $800 biweekly before taxes.
So what should I do? Go to the VOC Rehab training for $684 or get a real job for $800 before taxes?
The Benefits of the Two…
The baby will be born in the beginning of September and I’ll be moving in October. One thing for sure I’ll be able to save more with a job, but I’ll be still receiving cash even while I’m recovering from labor and delivery and maybe a few weeks after I move so I can have time to get a job in Florida if I stay with workers comp, but if I get hired at Whole Foods I might be able to transfer the job to Florida and won’t have to look for a job.
Let’s just wait and see…maybe I should pray on it.
I got an ultrasound yesterday and they found out where the bleeding is coming from…apparently it’s not placenta abruptio at all, but that I have a blood clot in my uterus. No one knows how on Earth that happened, but I know I’m not having anymore kids. If this baby isn’t a girl…I’ll just adopt. I have a pic of the baby, but I’ll add it later.
Here’s the pic of my hopefully daughter:
