New Year

Monday I had today off of work due to the Christmas holiday falling on Sunday. So I rested, and enjoyed my new bedding, and I wrote a letter, and went to cabela's and just was enjoying some quiet time. Preparing for the rest of the week.


Tuesday work was sooooo off for everyone. Everyone was in classes they normally are not in. It made no sense and no one understood what was going on. Everyone was like why are you here and me there, and why is so and so doing such and such. It was so weird.

Wednesday was not as crazy, but still crazy. I sent home 3 one year olds who were sick. I worked with infants for a bit, and then got to go home at 2 it was so weird, but good. I got to come home and relax and enjoy my day. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO PARKER!! My nephew turns 4 today. Wow time flys!

Thursday wasn't so crazy, but I was doing lots of little things. Like getting stuff to donation, or running people supplies, not really in a class room, and I got off early. It's been so nice, but I know once the holidays are over we will be back to busy longer days.

Friday I can't believe this year has had SO many changes and is nearly over. I worked only 2 hours and went home. Luckily my car died and I was able to get a replacement battery then send it to the shop. Lucky me!

Saturday new year eve day. I had alot of fun. I started off my day going with Rachel, Mark, Jessica, William, and Levi to the Mesa Natural Museum of History. I've been there many times for myself, and to get to see it through the eyes of a 1 1/2 year old and 3 year old was fun. They got to pan for gold, and it was so sweet to see these kids enjoying themselves. We saw old jails, and a huge dinosaurs exhibit with fossils and 'live dinos' It's pretty interactive for kids. So they weren't bored and we got to have fun too. We got the boys little stuffed dinos and board book. We then enjoyed a picnic. We went our seprate ways where Rahel and I had our own lunch and got some more fireworks. Then Jonthan Rachel and I went to the mall, walmart and firework place. We came home ate relaxed and played with fireworks. Brought in the new year with a big bang. It was so crazy form 8 till 1 we heard fireworks going off. I know people were having lots of fun we did.

Sunday it's a bright beautiful new year day. HAPPY NEW YEAR! Here is to a wonderful year and much peace, love, happiness, and many more blessings to come.

Short week and vacation MERRY CHRISTMAS too!

Monday I think being sick I missed a day but that's alright. I am feeling alot better. Today was a great day other than I'm still a little weak. I felt better the weather is cold and rainy and things at work were good. I'm happy all around today.
Tuesday was a rainy day and I LOVED IT! feels like Christmas to me, and I'm enjoying it. My day itself went really well I was with infants pretty much all day. Got off 'on time' and am ready to enjoy my week off.
Wednesday today was the first day of my week vacation. It was nice to sleep in, and do things I needed too. I caught up on all my house work. I had gotten behind when I was sick. I also wrote a letter and dyed my hair. It was a nice relaxing successful day.
Thursday I spent pretty much my whole day at the temple grounds. I was doing photos all around and I had a wonderful time. I came home, and we put up the tree and decorated. I even got some shopping done.
Friday I did more photos in downtown Glendale. I printed out the photos I wanted, and then went to experience Glendale Glitters. My vacation so far has been so much fun.
Saturday we went to Goldfield, and enjoyed some Old West fun. We went on a tour of a gold mine, and visited the Mystery Shack. I had fun despite not feeling so hot in the mystery shack. It was a weird experience where everything was angled. I would defiantly say see it once and enjoy.
Sunday I had a good day we went to Tombstone and Bisbee. I love going there. It was allot of fun despite being COLD and RAINY. I had allot of fun though. I love going to the Birdcage theater.
Monday I played the let's go to the post office for a letter to be delivered game. It was a mess so was the shopping I did. It was a crazy good day over all though.
Tuesday I sent off a Christmas package, and did a little shopping. I then wrapped all my presents up. It was a lovely week off. I'm not ready to go back to work, but at the same point I am ready. I don't miss the drama that the adults cause, but i do miss the kids.
Wednesday was back to work, and for the most part it wasn't to horrible. I had a great day with just a hard time getting started, but nothing major. Things were smooth and peaceful and just good.
Thursday was a little jumbled for me. I got thrown up on again by a one year old. It happened yesterday too. I was in the one year old class allot today. Plus the state came out to do licencing stuff. I was happy we did really well. I also got a present from my secret Santa, and LOVE IT! it's a beautiful bracelet just in time for Christmas.
Friday was a irritating day. Everything irritated and bothered me. I just wasn't in a good mood. I went to Texas roadhouse for dinner and mini golfing to help the mood. However I was just irritated
Saturday It's Christmas eve, and I have had a good day thus far. Spent some time with some good friends and relaxed, and just enjoyed being with those I love.
Sunday MERRY CHRISTMAS! This year was different for me for Christmas. I had a low key small Christmas. It's never been about presents for me so I don't care about that. I usually always have my stocking that my mom made me when I was little. I always put that up as my own tradition, and this year I didn't have it. It's packed away heaven knows where, and even my little tree that had become my own personal tradition to put up was packed away. So this year was a little sad cause I didn't have those things, but at the same point I know that's not what it's about. I focused more on my Savior and his birth, and enjoyed the love and peace he brings in my life. I did get a few pretty things, and got to see my family. So it's all good. I am actually posting this since I just realized it's been liek 2 weeks since I have. I will eventually get pictures up on facebook from my time out as well.

COLD?

Monday I was in the Infant room. I think that's where I'm going to be for a bit. It looks like we finally have enough babies that I can stay in there most of my shift. It was a beautiful day though slightly cold for most, but to me beautiful. I had a good day!

Tuesday was insane for me. Hectic is more like it. I was in the one year old room in the older three year old room in the infant room on the front desk. It was crazy, but nothing major happened. I was just crazy with all I was doing.

Wednesday was another hectic day, but this time I ended up extremely irritated. I started off with being in the one year old room, and being thrown into doing diapers. I don't mind helping, but when your the main teacher, and your just sitting doing nothing. Why have me do YOUR diapers. I got on break late, and then I was in the infant room. I had to put away ALL our baby food, fold the laundry, and feed kids. It was insane and to top it off a coworker tried to say I HIT her baby. I didn't HIT him I told him NO over and over cause I couldn't get to him, and he was about it hurt a little 3 month old baby. He's a big 9 month baby and he was about to lay on this little 3 month old. So excuse me for saying no, and I had a washcloth in my hand that lightly BRUSHED him. His mom who is a coworker went off about me hitting him. My director didn't talk to me about it, but i know she looked into if I did it. I hate being accused of HURTING kids it always makes me feel bad. Then I went to work with 4-5 year olds and I got peeded on by a special needs kid. Then trying to get home too me a good 30-45 minutes. I got off late so I was driving in the dark. It was just an annoying day, and i"m glad it's over and tomorrow is a new day.

Thursday I had a hard time with work. I didn't feel good I was sniffy, coughy, achy, and just in general drained and felt horrible. I worked mainly with the Infants and young 2's. I got to come home a little early. I soaked in a HOT HOT HOT bath for a hour, and still am just feeling yucky. I am hoping some rest will help me feel better. I did talk with the mother of the infant that I had that 'incident' with. Everything is cool there so that's the positive in my day.

Friday I woke up feeling like a mac truck had hit me run over me and drug me. It was not a pleasant way to start my day, but I wasn't unable to work. So I went to work some how I got there safely. I nearly had 3 accidents one of which would of been my own fault. I started feeling worse. I felt nauseated, and achy and lightheaded. So I asked if I could go home at ANY point. I didn't think I was going to get to go. So I just kept pushing through took some Advil, and prayed allot. I did get to come home at 1. I took a nap and I soaked in a HOT bath. I'm sipping powerade and feeling a little better. Just going to take it easy, and when I'm feeling like I can think better. I'm going to have to look into a doctor and get checked out. This is starting to become to regular of a occurrence, and I don't like it.

Saturday I woke up with a major headache and nausea. Not fun at all my back was hurting. It was like a bad chain reaction. My back was tweaked and hurting which caused my neck to tweak and hurt which caused a headache which caused the nausea. Nothing I was doing was working so I was laying on the couch. For whatever reason Jonathan felt the need to massage my back, and he did it for a long time. It hurt allot, but when he was done other than the headache I was feeling allot better. So I don't know if the knots that were there or the stiffness was why I felt so yucky or what. So after that I took a hot hot bath and I was feeling allot better by noon. Rachel, Jonathan and I went out to eat, and did some shopping for Christmas. I got a cute sweater out of it for pretty cheap. We also got our Christmas tree in our adventures. It was not a bad outting. Got alot done.

Back to 'normal'?

Monday HAPPY CYBER MONDAY!!! This is the day where you get all the great deals online. Like Black Friday is fr physical shopping. Today is for online. Silly, but nice all at the same time. I don't think I'll be shopping online, but it's nice to think about. I had a lovely day at work the kids were fun, and entertaining. I got sent home early again, but it's not so bad. I don't mind I have the ability to cover the hours I'm out. While others need the hours so they can live. I have pto time to cover me. Some of these gals don't and they have kids to feed and clothe. So I don't mind.

Tuesday I worked a full day for the first time in a couple weeks. It was nice, but I had gotten used to not working in the afternoon. It wasn't bad until 3 when we were told. Make sure your windows, hallway, and classroom look GREAT the news will be here about 10 tomorrow morning to do a story. I was like really? OK so I hurried and ran around like a crazy lady getting my window ready. Came home and felt like passing out.

Wednesday I spent the whole day in the infant room. It was a nice change. It was a good day all around. Even with the news there it was not to bad. They came they did their thing, and were gone in less time that it took to realize they were there.

Thursday I was in the infants again all day, and it was good. Except I had to tape the walls for paining. So now my back hurts, but it was not so bad.

Friday I got to work to see our walls in the infant room were painted the blue we wanted. I love it it's so pretty, but no one else is noticing it. I love it though. I was in the infant room all day, and got off early too. It was nice since my back is still hurting. I think I over worked it and the cold weather we are having is making it act up. I did come home and do some housework, and enjoyed ME time.

Saturday I ran around doing errands same with Sunday. It felt like I just kept running and running. I did see some light displays on Saturday. It was cute it was alien themed, and I loved it. They had a tribute to Roswell and Area 51. I was totally diggin it.

Happy Thanksgiving

Monday I had a great day despite my neck acting weird. I worked mostly with 2's and infants. It was a laid back easy going kind of day, and I loved it. The other weird thing that happened was I burned my finger with a french fry. Silly old me.

Tuesday I worked with the 2's mainly and then got to come home at 1. I hurt my hand though at work I think I pinched a nerve or something. So it was nice to come home and rest it.

Wednesday I worked for a short time. I went in worked with the 3 year olds did some bathroom breaks sent a teacher on a lunch break, and then came home at noon. It was a nice surprise. I came home did some housework, read, did my nails, and just relaxed. I am glad I had the chance to come home, and do all that. I even got to rest my back and hand. Which are still hurting. My hand is feeling better it's just stiff, but my back is another story. I lifted too many kids today.

Thursday HAPPY THANKSGIVING!! I woke up feeling nauseated, tickling throat, and a MAJOR headache. I was bummed out to start this holiday that way. I pretended I felt fine took some stuff and went to my parents. I had a wonderful time I got to meet some new babies and spend time with allot of people. We had a nice turn out. I would of stayed longer, but I started feeling super sick again so came home, and rested.

Friday BLACK FRIDAY! So I got up at 430, and went out to shop. It wasn't that bad because things were so early that it wasn't out of control like I thought it would of been. I went to Cabela's which was my LONGEST stay with a hour total time there. 45 min in line and I was done. I went to the mall spent about 2-3 hours there not standing in any lines nor being pushed around. I casually looked around and got what I wanted. Then I went to Wal-mart spent maybe 30 min in there got some stuff. Went to Dunkin Doughnuts and then came home. Took a nap, and then did housework. Not a bad day at all.

Saturday I spent half the day with my sisters, mom and one brother. We went to a movie and lunch. It was allot of fun. We saw Breaking Dawn which I enjoyed, and then we went out to eat. I love my family. We are a fun bunch of lively people. After that I went home, and Rachel and I went to do some pictures of me. It was fun, and then we went out to eat, and then came home and chilled.

Sunday I rested and recuperated from the long exciting holiday. Happy to have all that I do in my life. I am so blessed and so grateful.

Too Much

Monday I had a very nice mostly quiet day. I was in the infant room alone most of the day till about 3 then I was in school age till I left at 515 however it wasn't until 4 that they all showed up and got loud. I had 3 babies most of the time I was in there, and one schoolager till 4. Interesting day.

Tuesday I was never happier for SUGAR and CAFFEINE. I had a rough night. Got maybe 3 hours of sleep. So I was glad for doughnuts and soda. It got me through the day. I worked mainly with the preschoolers which are the ones going into kindergarten next year. So I needed that energy, and then I was in with schoolagers so I needed that energy. Plus I had to stay late for a meeting which ended up being MUCH shorter than needed cause our speaker didn't show. However lots of GOOD things are happening in the center. All the fines we had were let go. All the licencing issues are fixed, and we are fully staffed. It's great to have things moving smoothly, and to have the center as It should me. It's great to have someone work so hard and so WELL to fix things. I knew that if anyone can fix it it was Oliva. She's amazing and I'm so blessed to have her in my life.

Wednesday I was all over the school doing one thing or another. I was in a bad mood all day I was irritated by EVERYONE and EVERYTHING. It was really weird, and I got home and was just irritated by everything. So I dunno what's going on hopefully tomorrow is better.

Thursday was a AWESOME day. We had a thanksgiving feast and it went SO WELL, and I got off work at 1. I was able to come home and do some ME time. LOVE IT!

Friday would of been awesome! Had I not had a migraine and felt so sick all day long. It was a good day other than that. Loved being with my babies all day.

Saturday was a slow relaxing beautiful day. Rachel and I spent most of the day together. We did our toes, and window shopped. She bought me a really cute sweater, and life is good. We watched the parking lot conditions on the freeway on our way home. I had NO idea Anthem was lighting it's tree and EVERYONE was there. It was like insane. We were glad we were going the opposite way.

Sunday I relaxed and did laundry, and later in the day went out with Rachel and Jonathan. Happy Sunday!

Chilly

Monday I had a nice day. The weather was BEAUTIFUL! I love when it is slightly chilly and feels like fall. I had fun all day and though it was crazy I didn't feel overwhelmed. I took it one step at a time, and it was great.

Tuesday I had a great day again LOVELY weather! I was kind of all over the school. I even worked in the kitchen. It wasn't a bad day I just kind of had no 'home'. I came home and relaxed and read and enjoyed some lovely alone time. GREAT day!

Wednesday I had a okay day just super tired. I loved the weather I loved my day. I was just super tired. Nothing major happened today.

Thursday I was in the infant room pretty much all day. It was very unusual. I don't normal spend the whole day or majority of it in there anymore. It was nice. It made up for the sitting on the road going no where for 25 min before getting to work.

Friday was a complete opposite of yesterday. It was a beautiful cloudy day. It's this time of year that makes those 2 or 3 months of nasty so WONDERFUL here! Anyhow, I had NO trouble getting to work. In fact I got there in about 15 min when it usually takes 20-25 min to get there. I got gas in my car then went to work. Where it was SO LOW. I didn't even really 'work'. I kind of was just there. I got to leave at 1:30 where I was able to go grocery shopping, clean my room and bathroom, do laundry, and still had time to relax enjoy a few pages of my book. I then enjoyed some time playing a game. It was nice to just chill and have no worries.

Saturday I chilled in the morning. Then we went out, and hung out. We went to the mall, dinner, and Walmart, and came home and played a game. Stayed up till 230 and then went to bed. Sunday I just chilled at home all day.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Monday was Halloween, and I had a tough tough night sleep. I tossed and turned so I got maybe 2 hours of sleep. So that on top of not feeling well kind of made me not want to work. The kids were all excited cause it was Halloween day. I was all over the place, but due to the holiday. We were low on kids, and I got to get off at 430. So I was able to come home get put in a costume, and go with Rachel to her parents. We set up a quick little thing and passed out candy. It was a lot of fun. Then we went to eat and had a nice time watching some Halloween movie then to bed. Good day all around.


Tuesday I was off work so I took the time to sleep in, and do some laundry. Then Rachel and I went out and got some candelabras from Spirit for half off. We then went to Pay less and I got shoes buy one get one half off, and we went to Target and I got Water for Elephants. We came home and watched some shows then got pizza came home watched more shows. Enjoyed a lovely day off just not worrying. It was nice.

Wednesday was a beautiful day all around. The weather was beautiful. The kids were great, and things were just nice and peaceful. I was in a happy place all day.

Thursday I was in a weird place. I had a girl at work tell me that a coworker said something about me. She told this girl I was negative and uncaring, and that I was trying to take over a classroom that I wasn't. So the girl talked to me, and I explained that I was only temporary in that class, and that I don't want it. Then the girl who was speaking to me about what had been said. Was talking about how much she liked me, and how she never believed the other person anyway. It just bothered me that this girl said it. It's not the first time she said it, and I know she likes to run her mouth all the time. It just put a damper on my weird day.

Friday was not a good day nor a bad day. It was a day where time seemed to skip. It was weird it was like the hour of 8-9 never happened, and it was suddenly 9, and then the hour from 2-3 disappeared. It was suddenly just 3, and there was nothing really busy about the day. It wasn't just me it happened too either. It was weird. I got off work at 4 too so I don't know what that was all about, but it was a peaceful day all around.

Saturday I spent most of the day just relaxing and vegging. I didn't do allot of anything except just keeping to myself. Rachel Jonathan and I did go to a luau it was fun. SO MANY people it was great to see. Then we got went to Cabela's and then came home and vegged some more. Not a very active day.

Monday, October 24, 2011

hmm

Monday was the beginning of a new week, and with that came a pretty good Monday. I had a good day kind of worked in different rooms and infants. It was a nice relaxed day for me.

Tuesday I worked worked mostly in the older toddler room. It wasn't a bad day. My niece was born today, and I am excited! I worked late and am dead tired, but I love my job.

Wednesday I was mainly with the older one year olds. It wasn't bad I was just cranky and not feeling my best. I'm just waiting for a calm to come. Which hopefully by next week we will have happen. Because we are suppose to get fully staffed, and that means no more late nights for me. It also means I won't have to be out of a room forever. I just am kind of feeling overwhelmed with having to do it all right now.


Thursday I was all over the entire school. It was a crazy LONG day filled with weirdness. From a kid on a bike getting hit by a car kitty corner from our school. Accidents on the freeway, and crazy drivers everywhere. It was just crazy.

Friday was a long draining emotional day for me, and I don't know why. I just had a hard time finding happiness today. I had children hitting, kicking, biting, scratching and screaming at me. Maybe that was why it was harder. I had to send one of them home it was so bad. This child was not only hurting me, and my other teacher, but the other children, and then the child climbed to the top of a chain link fence. All while a working interview was there. Not pretty, but it is part of what I do. I came home did laundry and vegged.

Saturday I spent most of the day just resting, and not doing to much. Then in the evening we went out to the corn maze and a few Halloween places. Sunday came and I rested did some chores and ran errands. Not to eventful.

FALL FESTIVAL

Monday was crazy I was in the older 4 year old room then in the infants then in younger 1 year olds then older 1 year olds then infants then break then infants then older 4 year olds. It was like really just make up your minds already. It wasn't a bad day though just crazy.

Tuesday was a long day only in the respect that i had to stay late for a meeting. I mainly worked with my younger 1 year olds. It wasn't a bad day, but just busy and LONG. I had a staff meeting and it was crazy. Lots of interesting information came out, and lots of things came to light. Lots of good positive changes are coming.

Wednesday it doesn't even feel like Wednesday. I did breaks in the morning, and got to be with my infants in the afternoon. It was not a bad day just felt weird.

Thursday was long as hell and irritating. I got put into the older toddler room which is 18 months to 2 years of age. I've been pretty much working that room for a while since we haven't had allot of babies. So my boss asked me if I'd be willing to stay in there until we get more babies. I said yes only because I know she had NO ONE to stay in there who will follow through or stick with what we are trying to do in there. It's been so insane, but if I get a good worker who will follow through. I think we can get this room back to AWESOME. I am sad and will miss my babies, but when my boss said I was doing AMAZING in there, and she felt I was strong, and was doing wonders. It made me feel allot better about taking it on. It was also fall festival and that got me super frustrated too. I basically worked a 13 hour day.

Friday I didn't have to work in the toddler room I usually do. It was a weird day we were super low with kids, and I kind of just went to all different classes doing odds and ends. I didn't really work in one class room. I was tired and achy, and didn't complain just did what I had too. I got sent home at 230! I was SO EXCITED! I got to come home clean some stuff and do laundry, and rest up. So I can play all weekend if I want. It was awesome!

Saturday I had a good day. I spend a good half of the day at the fair. It was Rachel and I, and we went to a exhibit called Our Bodies, and it was so fascinating, and cool. It was real human bodies that had been donated to science, and we got to see up close and personal everything in the body. It was very interesting to see all the muscles and bones and joints, and all the different systems. Systems like digestive, reproductive, muscular, skeletal, heart, brain, all of it. I saw how big the liver is, and kidneys. I think it's so amazing. We then went and looked at some of the animals and things like that. Then we left the fair and shopped and went to dinner and stuff. It was a fun filled busy day.

Monday, October 10, 2011

lovey

Monday was a nice day. It was a holiday so the numbers at school were low. I worked with the younger kids one year olds and two year olds. I didn't get to be with the infants for more than maybe 20 min. It was nice I got off work early, and had a lovely day. The weather was beautiful, and I took advantage of that, and enjoyed some outside time to myself.

Tuesday was a interesting day I worked with the older 3 year olds and then the 2's and then the older one year olds. I wasn't needed in the infant room because it's been so low in there. We have a closer in there now so its been nice. It's weird being a floater, but at the same time I am honored they have that much confidence in me to put me ANYWHERE.

Wednesday I was in my infants for maybe 10-20 minutes. I worked in kindergarten and older ones. I also had a migraine all day long and it was not fun.

Thursday I worked with the older one year olds again. I'm starting to get really frustrated with having to be in that class all the time. It's not my room it's not my class and I'm just so tired of dealing with them alone all the time. I'm hoping next week things will be different when we hire more people.

Friday was a trying day for me. I went to bed with my back hurting, and woke and it was still hurting. I think allot of it is because I have to pick up those heavier kids and change them. So when I got to work today I asked to please not be alone, and that I was in allot of pain. I spent the morning with my older one year olds. Then in the afternoon I was actually with the infants for a change. It was so nice to be with them again, and I was so happy to see them, and them me. We had a new baby that started today, and she choked. It was scary, and I didn't have fun. She was in her crib, and suddenly got really quiet. TOO quiet, and so I looked over, and I thought she was spitting up. So I went to her and sat her up, and she was making a weird noise, and I saw something in her mouth. I couldn't do a blind sweep. I just had a cpr/first aide class Saturday so it was fresh in my mind. So I picked her up and faced her down and hit her back, and I was able to grab the label out of her mouth. She started crying and I held her and all was fine. She somehow managed to get a label from a label maker in her mouth. Scary times, but all was well, and I got to go home after that. I came home and relaxed and tried to get rid of my headache and backache.

Saturday I rested alot I didn't do alot I just felt like doing nothing, and did alot of NOTHING. I did go to the mall and get 2 shirts, but then came home and just spent time with myself. Low key restful day. It was weird to be so alone, but nice.

Sunday I enjoyed the peace of the day and did some low key things. It was lovely

more change

Monday I had to work late, and it was crazy we had not enough staff, and state came out. I was so tired, and everyone had to work late. It was a crazy day, but not bad.

Tuesday was not a great day for me at all. I woke up late, but was still managing to be somewhat on time. However, I got less than 2 miles from my house when my car started to smoke and smell like something was burning. I managed to get to a parking lot. Where I sat for a hour till help arrived. I got to work a hour late, and was just overwhelmed. I started crying, but I had a supporting system of people. People who checked on me and made sure I was alright. I got a free lunch out of the deal. I ended up having to close, but it's alright. After I was done with work I got my car back. Hopefully it's not going to give me any trouble any more. We replaced the water pump. So all should be good now.

Wednesday was a long day, but good. I worked with the younger ones half the day then with infants. Where I trained a new person to close. I just have to make it through this week and I should be done with long days. I'm pretty excited.

Thursday I had to be at work by 7. I had a tough night sleeping. For some reason I woke up every hour, and got up at 530 to be at work by 7. Where I worked till 630. I was with the kindergartners. It was so amazing. I have one little girl who's birthday was today. She turned 5, and I had her as a infant. I had a beautiful moment. She was doing sight words and learning to read, and had a book she was reading, and she suddenly realized the word she was doing was in her book. She was so excited to see that excitement and light her her eyes. that is why I do what I do. It was awesome! Made my long day all worth it.

Friday I was not feeling well all day. It was a crazy day, but not overly crazy. I worked with younger ones and then infants then older three's it was not horrible. I actually didn't have to close, and got to leave before 5 it was nice. I came home cleaned and did laundry and called it a early night. As I have a training in the morning for work.

Saturday I had CRP and First Aid training it was not bad just long. It's same as always, but I had to get it done. After that I came home and rested a little since I had a major headache and was tired from all the practicing. Then Rachel, Jonathan and I went to the Popo's to eat, the mall, and Spirit. We came home and watched some shows then went to bed.

Sunday I rested, and cleaned and tried to feel better. I woke with a scratchy throat, and am hoping it's nothing major.

The only thing constant is change.

Monday was a hard day for me. I had gotten a rotten night sleep. I don't know why or what happened, but I didn't sleep well at all. Then I got to work, and was put in with school agers, and then told the health department is coming out. Then my ops manager came out. Apparently a parent has made a major complaint, and so she was there all day. It's always hard when you have to have her there. It's harder when you have 2 people call out, and help from other schools and still things don't go right. I worked with infants for a little bit. Then preschoolers then one year olds got off a hour late. Then though my car worked fine. People drove nutty so it was a long 30 min drive home. I am just glad we made it through the day, and that tomorrow is a new day.



Tuesday was a long 11 hour day. I worked hard and alone most of the day. Both the closers for my room were out. My boss broke down crying with me. She was so stressed and her baby who's in my class was super sick. It was just a long day.



Wednesday was a big changing day. My boss got fired, and I am not sure how I feel about it. I think allot of it is shock and excitement. I knew something was up, but I didn't think it was this bad. However, after having many times and chances to change and fix things. It was a matter of what's best for the center. So my ops manager who was the one who hired me is now currently the director. I am excited to have her back. She's going to make some good positive changes, and I am glad this is happening.



Thursday wasn't as crazy as yesterday. It was actually more controlled than it has been in a long time. We are having the entire building painted, and even with that, and my running everywhere. It was still a nice pleasant day. I helped out in all the classrooms. I even got off early it was a nice day all around.



Friday was nice, but crazy I helped out in the kitchen and did laundry and worked in all kinds of classrooms. I had a good day and am tired, but it was worth it.





Saturday was a slow start. I didn't do allot of anything. Later in the day I went out and enjoyed some time with Rachel and Jonathan. We shopped and ate and enjoyed each other's company.





Sunday was a relaxing day. We all went out and about and just had a nice low key day

Happy Birthday

Monday was a nice slow kind of quiet day. I had a good day all around it was just quiet. It was also talk like a pirate day. Plus, one of my babies had their first birthday so we had cupcakes. It was so cute.


Tuesday was a nice day. I worked with the preschool kids and my infants. I got off early which was a blessing. My car started to over heat, but I made it home safely. I took the 'side' streets where there was less traffic in case something happened. Nice long hot journey cause I had the air off, but I made it.

Wednesday I sat and clocked in late. It was silly and then everyone had to leave early today. It was a crazy day. I still had car issues getting home it overheated 2 times. Not fun on top of feeling sick it was just not a good day.

Thursday HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! My day was bad, but I got through it. My car overheated on the way to work and just kept giving me issues. I was in pain I got hurt it just was like one thing after another kept happening. I had a nice dinner with my parents, and a chocolate cupcake. HAPPINESS right there!

Friday was a good day. I guess to make up for a tough week. I worked in a bunch of different rooms and got off early. My car is FINE, and life is good. I came home and did laundry and cleaned and just relaxed.

Saturday I didn't do allot. I basically sat around doing nothing but relaxing. We went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse for my birthday and did some grocery shopping. Then home and to bed.

Sunday I woke up with a terrible headache and just relaxed and did a little shopping and kept it a low key day.

cool down

Monday I was feeling a bit better. Sunday I was sick I felt nauseated, and had a high fever. I got a blessing and rested and today feel better. I am not 100% but I can function and that is all I ask for. I was in the infants all day and the day went by pretty fast. Nothing major just a good day all around.

Tuesday I was super tired. I had a hard time sleeping for some odd reason. I was in the infant room all day, and it went pretty well. I did have to stay late again and work in the one's for a bit. It wasn't to bad though. It rained and I love the rain! Life is good

Wednesday I was in infants most all day. I spent about a hour with the older one year olds. It wasn't to horrible. I'm just tired, and I'm so tired of hearing people belly ache about things they can't change. UGH

Thursday was weird all day for me. I don't know what it was, but I just felt off all day. I worked in all kinds of different classrooms, it was just a off day all day.

Friday was off for whatever reason we were super low in kids. I started off waiting 20 min before clocking in. Then I was in the 2 year old room, and then I did potty breaks. We only had 8 kids in my infant room by the time they all finally showed up. I worked in the preschool room too. I did get to come home early by about 45 min. I came home cleaned and did laundry. I then fought my closet door that came off the hinges. It was a interesting night.

Saturday was kind of lazy didn't do a whole lot. Just kind of sat around. Had lunch at Spaghetti Factory did a little shopping for food visited Cabelas and Spirit. Then was just home.

Sunday I rested and relaxed and just kept to myself. Have a wonderful week!

Short Week

Tuesday It's Tuesday, but feels like Monday that's what happens with holiday weekends right? It was a beautiful morning. I thought it would rain, but sadly it didn't. The day went really well though, and I spent time with the 2's and my infants. Got off a little late, but it is all good. I feel so blessed with all I have in my life.

Wednesday I was sooooo tired. I haven't figured why I'm so tired, but I am. I keep getting off at 530. So that doesn't help. Today 3 people put in their two weeks, and that will leave us with about 4 people leaving soon. It's going to be interesting. I am enjoying my new living conditions.

Thursday was a good but crazy day. My opener was out for some reason that no one knows. Only that she called and said she can't come in, and can't talk about it. I hope she's okay. So I was crazy trying to catch up all day. I didn't sit down till my break, and it was insane. Just going all day non stop. I was happy to go home and rest.

Friday was not to bad. Kids were still cranky not sure why. I got off early and just hung out at home. It was nice and relaxing.

Saturday was the first day in a while that I could just relax and not worry about anything. I just kind of took it slow did my own thing. Rachel, Jonathan and I went to a gun show, and we just had a relaxing day. We went swimming and watch a movie called Case 39.

Sunday I relaxed and just enjoyed some me time. We didn't do alot. It was nice

Labor Day!

Monday was a good day. I am still getting used to where I live. I haven't figured out my whole traveling TO work thing. I ended up being late, but not too much. My time kept flying by though. I felt good I feel so much happier and lighter now that I am out of where I was.

Tuesday I think I am figuring out traveling time to work. I had a tough day cause I didn't feel so great. I think I am getting a cold. On top of it my coworker was sicker than me. She had some kind of tummy issues. She was miserable, and so I had to do more than usual. I didn't want her to pass out or get sicker. So I did diapers mainly, and cleaning. I got a break super late. I felt so yucky, and then my afternoon was spent bouncing around from the young 2's to the young 3's it wasn't bad. I just wasn't feeling well. I was glad to come home and rest. Life is going pretty good I feel good and happier.

Wednesday I felt sick. My body ached and I had a small cough, but not enough for me to say yes it's a cold let's take cold medicine. If I would of taken it I would of been in a fog. So I took Alive, and had Halls. I managed to get through the day I was with infants mostly. I just felt so sluggish and just not with it. I even got to go home a little early. I am finding the 'perfect' way to get to work. I am feeling more peace and happiness than I was. Now if this cold could leave me alone I'd be happy.

Thursday I have now developed a cough, but don't feel as yucky as I did so I'm hoping maybe now all I'll have is the cough. I am slowly adapting to getting to work. I think I have figured out the best way for me. I was in the infants all day, and it wasn't bad. It's just hard to be on my game when I am not feeling 100%

Friday was a low day. We had less amount of kids we think due to the holiday. Other than a cough and my voice sounding weird I am feeling pretty good. I was with my babies all day, and came home and packed to go up north.

Saturday we were in Williams. We enjoyed the cooler air, and the shops there.

Sunday we spent the day in Flagstaff. Enjoying some nice clouds and light rain. We also enjoyed some shops and art shows.

Monday we came home from Flagstaff and due to two construction areas and a accident it took us 4 hour to get home. The trip was just Rachel and i, but we had a wonderful time!La

Move

Monday was back to a kind of normal. I had my regular coworker back, but that just meant I had to move allot more. It was fine in the end. I ended up staying a little late, and came home and did a little more packing. I managed to get the clothes I wanted boxed up and I separated what is going to storage and what is going with me. I have mostly clothes to pack, and am gathering more boxes, and it's going well.

Tuesday I was in the infants all day and it was a fairly good day. I came home early and packed up a ton of clothes. I had to go back to work to have a meeting, and then finally got to be HOME. Sometimes it's nice to just SIT.

Wednesday I woke up feeling like I was hit by a truck. Put in a washer and tumble dried. I don't know why I felt like that, but I did. It was with me all day. I just felt worn out, and not myself. I had a good day I was with infants mostly, and two's for a little bit. I came home, and got pretty much all done packing. I have the bare necessities I need for the rest of my time here, but everything is pretty much packed. It's all separated and just has to be moved. I am feeling really good about this, and hope everyone else is too.

Thursday I felt allot better, but just kind of in my own mind. I worked with the 3's and infants and got home and packed more. I got my new headboard, bed, and dresser set up for delivery. I packed my car with boxes of stuff to take to my parents tomorrow. Getting ready for the big move. So my minds been racing, but in a good way. I don't feel bad about this at all. I feel this is right, and good and it's going to be a good growing opportunity.

Friday I didn't feel well at all. I don't know what it is but I felt sick all day and in a fog. I was with my infants all day. It wasn't a bad day they were all calm, and so forth. Nothing major happened which was nice since I didn't feel so great. I got off work later than usual, but it was alright. I have over time on the check. WHOOT! I took my packed car to my parents and unloaded it, and then packed the car again and took a load over. Mostly got all I need at my parents there. I have like two bigger items I can't do without help. So I'm pretty much done with being in the house. I have my car packed for the new place. I just have a few final things to gather, and I'm out. So I'm just taking in the last night. It doesn't feel scary or anything. It's a peace filled moment. A little sad knowing I've had so much here in a short time. However it will be a good move in my life to go on.

Saturday I moved all day long. I got all my stuff out of my house, and to my new place by about 1130. I then spent the rest of the day unpacking and getting settled. It was a late night filled with lots of emotions.

Sunday was my first full day in the new place. I did more unpacking and more getting settled stuff. After a while I went and pampered myself and got my toes done. We had visitors over and I got to bed late. However after this night I was completely unpacked and set up to live.

UGH

Monday I had a busy busy busy day. It was back to school so there was lots of changes. I just kept going and running around. I didn't get to really sit down until my lunch break. Which is unusual. Usually I am able to sit and play with the babies or feed them. Today I was just going it was Monday so our laundry is behind. It was just a never ending catch up game. I got home and I worked on packing and going through stuff. In the passed two days I have managed to go through my nightstand, the bottom of the closet, two desk drawers, 'the cubbie', all my VHS video tapes, all the books I have read, all my photo albums, poems, stories, and photos. It's amazing how much stuff just accumulates over the years. My goal is to have a good majority of 'stuff' packed before Labor Day. Only because I have to make a trip to my parents house before I go up north. So I want to get some stuff moved so it's less on the day we move fully. I have 3 boxes packed. Which is pretty dang good. I have all my old books that I want to keep cause I love them. All the VHS are of performances so i won't get rid of them. Then my photos, stories, poems and stuff are of course being kept. I have nearly filled the trash with crap I don't need or can't donate. I have some books and stuff to take to a place and either get cash or store credit for it. I'm impressed with how much I have gotten done. My back and feet hurt which was a hint it's time to take a break.

Tuesday was not as crazy as yesterday. As we get into the swing of school being back in session it's always a little bumpy. Today I got to pass out breakfast, work with the young 3's, the infants, and the older 2's. It was pretty good all around. I came home and did some more packing. I have taken down most of my pictures, and packed them so the walls look bare. I got the 'cubbie' and the top of the shelf cleared, and I did some of the top of the old t/v stand. I have been blessed in getting 3 boxes a day from work. So I have 6 boxes from work packed. Which is good, and I started to go through my current books. I think I'll next begin to tackle the closets. I am really making allot of progress. I'm feeling sore, but at the same point the stress is making me yucky. Hopefully by the end of the week I'll have most of my stuff packed to take to my folks. I have a goal to get a good bulk of stuff packed and moved back home. Before Labor Day when I have to stop by the house anyway.

Wednesday I was in the infant room all day it was a good day. My morning coworker was told to take the rest of the week off. So she gets a well deserved break, and things are going pretty good. We are starting to get settled into the school back in session groove. I got home today, and Rachel brought me some boxes, and she took my game cube, xbox and a couple other things. I can always get them back when I have a place for them again. In the meantime her and Jonathan get to have some fun games. I packed allot of stuff today. I am trying to get as much packed as I can so it's not so stressful when it's time to get out. My goal is to have most of it done by Labor day. In case things get even weirder than they have here. I have almost all the front room packed up with the exception of a few little things. I have to get some more boxes, but I'm going to go through a closet that's full of board games. The bathroom and my room and start weeding out things. I've gotten rid of ALLOT of stuff. I am so amazed that I still have SO much with donating and throwing away so much.

Thursday I was in the 1 year olds or infants all day. It wasn't a bad day. I got off a little late, but that's alright. I still got allot accomplished when I got home. I packed the rest of my big bookshelf with the exception of some books, and all the trinkets from my room are packed. I have shelves and a few pictures left. My next goal is the game closet, the bathroom, and a good part of my room. I want to pretty much be done and ready to get out before the end of August hits. Things have gotten really weird here. I don't know what's going on with Trisha, but I think she's lieing about allot of things. So I need to do my best to get out. The sooner the better.

Friday was full of inserting things. I got off work early, and went to get some stuff to pack with. I packed for a while. I'm almost all done with everything. I mainly have my clothes to pack up now. I had a couple opportunities come up for me to live in. However, in the end it didn't work out. I'm all emotional, but know that I am doing the right thing.

Saturday I was a emotional mess I didn't know what end was up or down or around. I felt so defeated and done. I met with Rachel and Jonathan who helped me take some stuff to DI and Half Price Books. I got a little money from the books more than I thought I would. It was a blessing. All day long I had been talking with Rachel and Jonathan about the move and things from Friday. They were offering ideas of apartments and living situations. I took them into mind and kept praying for the way to be shown. I went to my house later that night, and felt really weird. Then it sounded like someone was trying to break into my house. So Jonathan came and checked things out, and I stayed at their house.

Sunday I went to church with Rachel. I was still praying for a way for something to be figured out. We went to lunch and i came home. I decided at that point I was going to just pack up all I have except what I need to live for a month. I was working on that and just feeling defeated. When Rachel called with a offer to live with them for a short time. So I talked to my parents, and we decided it would be good to take this offer. So now we are going to hopefully get me moved in before Sept 1. I am feeling very blessed

Life changes

Monday was a good day things went really well. I was in infants all day. It was super busy, but good. I got off late, but its all good.

Tuesday was a good day too. Not nearly as busy as Monday, but was good. Love being with my infants.

Wednesday was so crazy. We had 12 babies. Again really?? Come on state says we can only have 11 babies. Where the HELL am I suppose to put this baby? The poor baby has no crib, no cubbie, no storage place for her stuff. Plus our first things first coach came by. Then I was alone with 24 3 year olds. I don't know them or the room, and the excuse was oh the other teacher is in here. Really?! No she's not you have her in the kitchen. I was so frustrated on top of not feeling well. Then I got off work late. I was never so glad to go home, and forget about this day.

Thursday was good, but busy. We had 13 babies. Yes 13! They were all there, and it was a mess. It was organized chaos. It was not to bad just a lot of things to do, and no time to do it all in. People wonder why I'm dead tired at the end of the day. Why all I want to do is put my feet up and do nothing. Hmmm? 13 children under the age of 1 yeah you tell me. I love it though. It's a good tired, and I love working with my babies.

Friday was a good yet tough day. My opening co worker is on vacation till next Thursday. So I had someone different to spend the morning with. It went really well though. I didn't feel stressed out, and I didn't feel overwhelmed. It was crazy, but not overwhelming like it had felt before. It was also sad cause one of our babies last day was today. The parents don't want to remove the child, but it's not working out. They are backtracking, and it's just out of the way for them to come to the center. They have tried for 2 months to make it work, and it just didn't happen. So we had some sadness today. I felt stressed out due to the decision to have to move out of my home. I love this home, and it's been a big blessing to be here. However, without details it's come to the time where I need out of it. So I came home from work, and went through our shed for a hour. Then cleaned up I had so many spiderwebs and dirt and crap on me it was nasty. I got rid of some stuff that was destroyed anyhow. So got cleaned up, and decided to go hang with Rachel and Jonathan. Which turned into staying the night with them.

Saturday we all had slept in I know I hadn't had good sleep so I woke up at 11 and so did Rachel and Jonathan. We did managed to get alot of things done. I got some socks, a dress, a shirt, and pants for under $40. GO ME!! We also got a bike ride and swim in. Good day, and I stayed the night with them.

Sunday we got up and I sewed my dress and Rachel's. I did my own nails and hers. We then went to lunch and grocery shopping. I came home, and did laundry, and went through some stuff that I need to to get ready for my packing. I threw out 3 big trash bags of stuff. Some of the things had been sitting here for 4 years plus at my house for a few years. It was time to throw them out. I then stopped to rest. I figured a few fiances out, and relaxed. Over all not to bad of a day. Little sad, but over all good.

Holy busy

Monday I love when it rains here. It was so nice to feel the fresh air. It didn't last to long, but long enough. It was a crazy day I was with school agers then infants. We had so much crap at work today. We had a crew come in to strip and wax the floors. Which usually happens once a month and then once a month carpets get cleaned. It's usually over a weekend. Ok so the people that came in to wax the floors. Did a HORRIBLE job. Not only did they just throw things wherever they didn't do the job right. They then took 2 classrooms furniture and left it outside. It POURED and ruined stuff. Some stuff is replaceable others aren't over $5,000 worth of damage. The company is trying to say they didn't do it. The owner of the school came out. He was so mad. He is going after the waxing company, and he fired the one who was there. Then our ops manager came to do hot spots. It wasn't a good day to do it. The school was a mess and every classroom looked horrible. It was a bad day, but we will get through.

Tuesday wasn't as bad as Monday. It was actually pretty good for the most part. It was calm and things went pretty well. Even getting off work a hour later because they can't staff right. I still had allot of good in my day.

Wednesday was crazy I was in school age, infants, and two's. I felt like I was running all day and
not had a chance to stop. To top it off I didn't feel good all day. Here's to tomorrow being better.

Thursday wasn't as crazy as the rest of the week. It was a little crazy we had help from another school again, but I was with infants. It was really a good day over all other than getting off work late. Which seems to be the usual any more. It's fine they can either get me off early come end of the week or pay me the overtime. I don't see why we can't have the overtime we bust our butts for anyhow. I came home and was so out of it I burned my hand making dinner. It currently is being iced and I pray it's ok soon. It hurts right now.

Friday was a beautiful day! I felt great, and the day was really good. I got to work in a bunch of different rooms. I got off work early, and got to get some errands run. I also got some housework done. It was wonderful! My burn had a blister, but is healing well. I even spent some time with Rachel and Jonathan.

Saturday I was with Rachel and Jonathan all day. We watched 2 movies. Red Riding Hood and Season of the Witch. I painted Rachel's nails and dyed her hair. I did my own nails as well. We then went to Cabela's always fun to go there, and the mall and just hung out. Then I came home.

Here it is Sunday I am home finishing up some house work, and relaxing. This week had it's ups and downs, but I survived. Have a great week!

busy

Monday was a nice day. It was a very calm yet busy day for me. I was with the infants. It was just a go and go kind of day. I had a lovely day.

Tuesday was tough for me. My back was hurting allot. I had to work harder than usual because I had a person in my room that wasn't so familiar with it. So I tried to make it so that person only had to hold and feed babies. While I changed diapers. It went well I'm just dead tired and in pain, but it will pass.

Wednesday was another busy day with 12 babies. I don't understand why they did that as we are only allowed 11 babies. It was crazy, and then we had one who had to leave. They have to be gone 18 days as they may have measles. It's a big mess, but we have to protected the babies. This mother is making it hard for us to track down if it's really measles too. Over the age of 1 are good cause of immunizations. However children under one which are my class are very able to get it. I hope it's not measles.

Thursday so our measles is not to be worried about. Just watch for rashes and fevers. Oy really? Okay. I had a busy day and worked till after 530. I was in the infant room and then with young threes. It was non stop kind of day. I was never so glad to be home and put my feet up.

Friday I was getting ready for work about to go out the door. My boss calls tells me to come in late cause I have to close. Okay why the HELL didn't you tell me this 2 weeks ago? A week a go? hell even a night ago? You totally knew this day was coming. Then at 730 you text me and tell me to come in late and close? HELLO!? It's all good though. We were short 5 teachers how the hell that happened? I dunno my boss blamed it on the assistant director. It was so stupid. It was weird closing again. I came home and just chilled.

Saturday I went with Trisha and saw the musical Baby at Arizona Broadway Theater. It was good the people there always amaze me. It was about 3 different couples in their 20's 30's and 40's and the different ways a baby impacts them. It was good I enjoyed it. I then came home and did laundry and relaxed.

Sunday I just stayed home and enjoyed some alone time. I cleaned a little and just relaxed. I hope your week is wonderful!

DMV and movies

Monday I had a busy busy day at work. We have a full class and it kept us on our toes. I worked a longer time than usual. It was not bad or anything just busy. I did get a letter from the DMV. It says my photo will expire and I have to get it redone. By state law I have to do this and pay them 12$ I never knew the photo expired. No one I've talked to knows this either. Guess I'll have to take a morning off and go to the DMV. OH JOY

Tuesday was a busy day as usual. It's become a normal busy day not stressful just busy. Full class again and just over all busy. I had a horrible headache in the morning, but once I took something it was forgotten. Got off at a normal time and enjoyed a quiet evening at home.

Wednesday was a crazy day. We had so many visitors in the infant room We had our quality first coach visit then a physical therapist. It was a crazy day, but I am happy. My coworker got really light headed and almost passed out. That wasn't so fun. I got off a little early it was so nice.

Thursday was again just busy. I had little sleep my back kept waking me up. It hurt allot and I'm not sure what happen to it. Then at work I leaned down to get a baby, and I think I pulled something in my side. It hurts now too. Other than that my day was good.

Friday I spend the morning at the DMV. I got slightly lost getting there. I went where I was suppose too, but it was the inspection place. Took me a minute to get across the street. Got there when it opened. There was a line I waited in for 30 min just to talk to anyone. Then sat for hour and half to just to talk to someone. I talked to the lady who was talking about her kids to me. Then got my picture taken. Where the lady there talked to me about so funny. It took 10 min emerald city. it was so funny. It tool 10 min to do all I needed too. Then since I didn't have to be to work till noon. I go gas in my car and grocery shopping. I like going grocery shopping Friday mornings. No one was there and I was in and out. Got home ate lunch got dressed and went to work. I worked in the ones infants and 4's then came home. Went to dinner with Trisha then had some alone time at home.

Saturday morning I went with Jonathan and Rachel, and we watched the second Harry Potter movie. We then had lunch and just kind of hung out for a little bit. Then we bought bikes so we can start bike riding. We went swimming and I stayed the night there.

Sunday we got up and had a adventure trying to get breakfast at McDonalds. Then we went to the mall for a little bit. We then saw Captain America. I came home did some house work and rested. It was a great weekend!

:)

Monday I woke up to beautiful rain! I love the rain here. It's to bad that it ends all to quickly and all that is left if hot humid air. I had a good day. I started off with my school age kids. I used to be terrified of them, but not anymore. Most of them I've had in my classes, and as long as I have a strong teacher in there. I am good with them. I had allot of fun before I went to infants. I even played with my 1 year olds. I had a fun filled day and got off early it was great!

Tuesday was a good day I was in the infant room all day. I had allot of fun I basically worked all day long. I got no break which was fine as they sent me home early. I came home rested and relaxed and enjoyed my evening

Wednesday was just frustrating all around. I don't know that there was just one thing it was just things. I was irritated that we have sick babies at work that I have to clean up all day long. I have to pray I don't get sick since they won't send staff kids home. I was irritated I had to take a 20 min break. I was hot I was in pain I had to work in older room. It wasn't bad I was just irritated. Then I got in infant room for the afternoon and basically was alone with 10 kids. I then had to wait an extra 45 min to leave. I got home late I cooked my food and then had to eat it cold. I will just be glad when today is over. Tomorrow will be better.

Thursday it started off going well. Quiet and relaxed and a low amount of infants. The afternoon got messed up when I had to go in the one year old room. I ended up staying later than usual. It wasn't too bad. I mean life is too short to get upset over it. I just think it was funny how everyone was like Janae needs to go home. So funny

Friday I worked with a super bad headache. The day went by slow, but over all went well. Came home late and then spend time with Jonathan and Rachel and David. We had dinner, and David and i stayed the night. Saturday David (Jonathan's brother) and Jonathan and Rachel and I went to breakfast. The boys went shooting, and Rachel and I were going to see the new Harry Potter movie, but it ended up not working out. So we went and got Rachel's nails done. Then we visited her nephews. We had a good time then we met back up with the boys and went to the mall and borders. Then Rachel, Jonathan and I met up with Mark and Jessica. We had dinner and hung out a little. We then got ice cream and rented a movie. We watched the movie and painted nails. I stayed the night again. Today (Sunday) we watched the first part of harry potter did my nails and toes and had lunch. I then came home and caught up on house work. Great weekend!

HOT and Fourth of July

Monday was a weird, but fast day. I clocked in late worked with older 3 year olds before I got to infants. It was just weird not sure what was going on or anything. So I just sorta went with the flow, and it went by really fast. Came home a little later than usual, but it was all good. Had Trisha bring Marco and his cat Gordo over. Very weird situation. I'm not entirely sure why the cat had to come, but whatever it is it is. I'm sure they are all happy Marco seems nice enough. So good for her. I hope they are really happy with one another.

Tuesday I was in the infant room all day, and it was pretty normal. Nothing to major happened. I wasn't feeling so well, but I think it was something I ate last night. Marco and Trisha had made some food, and shared it with me, and it was good. It was like a shrimp thing with cucumber, onion, shrimp, avocado, ketchup and clamato juice and you put it on crackers. It was really good I may of over done it on eating it. It was nice of them to share though.

Wednesday was a attitude day. Everyone is hot and cranky at work. I had a good day I wasn't cranky, but my bosses sure were. I don't get why they yell at those that don't need it and don't say a word to those who need it. However despite everyone being nasty to each other the day went pretty nice.

Thursday wasn't as hot as it has been, but the infant room still is super hot. Over all today was a good day things went smoothly

Friday was super nice. Things went really well for a Friday. I only got ticked when I was suppose to leave at 330 and had to stay till just after 5, but it worked out. I came home got ready and spent the evening with Rachel and Jonathan.

Saturday I spend the entire day with Rachel and Jonathan. I had allot of fun. We got me a new swimsuit, and watched a movie called Beastly and swam. So much fun!

Sunday I came home from Rachel and Jonathan's so I could do housework and make sure the house was alright. I'm getting caught up before I go with them again. We are doing some Fourth of July stuff tonight. We are getting our own fireworks and doing them at their house. As we can't do them at mine. It's going to be allot of fun!

Monday HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!! I had a good day today. I stayed the night with Rachel and Jonathan, and in the morning we went shopping. We then spent time with Rachel's family. It was allot of fun. I haven't seen some of them in a long time. It was nice to talk and catch up. After that we went to Cabela's cause we love it there. Then we got fireworks and came to the house. We watched a movie. So over the weekend i saw Beastly, Despicable me, and Megamind. It was allot of fun we had pizza and ice cream. Then set off fireworks, and then I came home caught up on life at home, and called it a night.

Tuesday was a good day. It was humid and muggy all day long even in my class. It makes for cranky infants, but over all went well. I had to spend 45 min in the young three's it was a mad house, but it was alright. My elbow hurt off and on, but not like it did yesterday. Got home and enjoyed a nice relaxing evening.

Wednesday was a good busy hot day. I spent some of the day with the one year olds, and the rest of the day with infants. We were short staffed it was crazy, but in the end all went well.

Thursday I was in the infant room all day. It was a crazy day I don't know how we were short handed, but we were. We had a lady come in and observe us for a hour during lunch. It was so nerve racking. She was really nice, and I understand why she was there. It's just harder when someone is in the room watching every step you make. Plus I had a different person with me in the afternoon. So that was hard as well. I got off a little early, and got home to do some laundry and relax.

Friday was a nice day things went really well. No problems and no complaints. I came home did some quick catching up. Then went out with Rachel and Jonathan we were suppose to go shooting, but that fell through. So we went to dinner and then I came home.

Saturday I spent all day with Rachel and Jonathan. We went to the Bass Pro shop in Mesa, and spent a good amount of time there. It's made by the same people who made Cabela's. It's more geared toward fishing, but it was still fun to go too. After that we went to get something to eat. Then Rachel and I went to play Bingo at a casino. It was alot of fun, but crazy at the same time. After we were done we decided to go play a dollar in a penny slot. Rachel lost I won $75 it was fun. We then ate and came home.

Today is Sunday, and I am finally nearly caught up with everything from housework to laundry to figuring out life. I'm enjoying some time at home relaxing and being alone. Untill next week keep smiling!

Heat is on

Monday was a interesting day. I woke up with a headache and it took 2 Advil and 2 Excedrin migraine in order to get it to calm down. It made working difficult, but I got to work, and things were good and calm. We were doing good and then a lady came in and enrolled 2 babies. She was kind of stressed out about everything, and that spirit was in the room. Both my coworker and I were feeling so overwhelmed. We couldn't calm down or get the peace back. So we turned on some gospel inspired music. It was amazing to see how quickly the mood changed. I felt the Lord's hand and love, and we all calmed down. I then was able to have a talk with my boss to find out if I was doing anything to upset her in my class. I got told no, but the 'girls' were saying things to her about me. However, there was not a specific incident or situation she could point out. I asked what I could do to improve it, and she said without specifics it's hard to help. So I talked to the afternoon girl who I am sure said the most. So it seems like things are better with that, and I will do better at whatever it is they think I'm not doing well in. I got off and came home and rested. I hope tomorrow is better.

Tuesday wasn't as bad as Monday, but my head is hurting. I got myself all stressed out over a supposed friendship that is over. It's all online and I got to involved with it, but it's better. I'm just getting rid of that person in my life, and their games. Work went really well today it wasn't as stressful as it has been. Things went really well. I was just very tired and done from the stress I gave myself. Tomorrow will be better!

Wednesday was a good day I felt good and things went really well over all. I felt stress free and that I wasn't overwhelmed with everything. It only was not fun staying slightly later than usual. Just because the kids would just NOT go home. However it was a good day.

Thursday wow today was beyond insane. Everyone or a majority of my coworkers were sick with some kind of nasty stomach bug throwing up and diarriah and even my boss had it. It was beyond crazy. I kept giving people Pepito but still it was insane. I'm like the medicine queen for everyone. I was in all kinds of different classes and it was just crazy. I hope i don't get it.

Friday was not a bad day. I started off in the one year old room where we had breakfast and water play. I love being with those kids it was funny. They crack me up some are silly with water others just scared to death of it. I was then in the infant room. It was a nice easy peaceful day and super low. We only had 6 babies then right before lunch 8 when I got back 7 and I went home at 4. Things were super peaceful and smooth. I came home did some house work laundry and relaxed the night away.

Saturday was good, but very hot. I had time with Trisha we had lunch, and ran errands. Then I went with Rachel and Jonathan to Cabela's and we saw her nephews. They are 3 and 10 months they are so cute. It was nice to go visit them. We then rented The Black Swan, and watched it and swam. It was a fun night all around.

Sunday is today and I woke up with a headache, but once I moved around it faded. So I'm doing some housework and getting ready for this weeks adventures.
