When I got my financial aid check I got $2000 out in cash to buy books and supplies because it's going to be about a week until I get my bank card and I wanted to put some in my other savings account.

Well...

I've spent close to $1215.

I bought books ($430), new prescription eyeglasses ($280), had car repairs done ($150), bought groceries, new undergarments (I really did need them) ($80), gas ($40), a few odds and ends at Wal-Mart and target, about $30 on my nephew, $20 on my sister and that's it.

I don't really have much to show for it. o.O

I still havn't bought my drafting supplies. >_

(ME!) i'm so happy

Dear Financial Aid Website,

My social security number is not invalid. It is a perfectly good number, it just wasn't issued by the state of Tennessee. I've not gotten married or been divorced and it's been two years since I've moved. The number should be fine.

So let it go through already!

I want to have love for you,
Me.


I was got out of bed at 6:30 this morning to take care of Grant. He was fine. I fed him and what does he repay me with as soon as his mother walks out of the door? A stinky diaper, thanks Grant. I let him crawl around after I had barricaded (and it's quite ghetto looking) the way into the kitchen and towards the stairs.

An hour and a half later I gave his his next bottle and then we went for a walk up and down the side of the street because that the great ourdoors is his favorite thing in the whole wide world. He didn't fall asleep and after about forty minutes outside I came in. This old, beat up brown truck drove three times down the street we were walking on. I got the heeby-jeebies and took our butts inside.

I should not have laughed at the boy when he crawled underneath his high chair and got stuck. He couldn't work out getting back over the base so when he'd crawl, he took the high chair with him. The Boy also likes lattes. >_>

I got him to sleep at 9 and then we both took a two hour nap. I heard him wake up once but thankfully he went back to sleep. I got up at eleven but he continued to sleep for another thirty minutes. Then his mama came home just as I was feeding him macaroni and cheese. He's her responsibility now.

And now I have a lot of cleaning to do. I need to clean out my car. I need to clean out my storage cubby. I need to vacuum everything. I need to do laundry.

I'm not going to that place where my sister works to turn in an application because I keep having to run to the bathroom for 'stomach problem'. It's not a lot of fun. I'm gonna go Monday, right after I find out what's up with my unemployment status. I think I should have heard something by now.

And I'm really, really feeling icky. My heart is racing and my stomach is in knots still. It's been this way since I applied for a student loan. I don't like the thought of a student loan but at this point it's my only option.

It might be because I didn't eat much yesterday. I had a double cheeseburger, applie pie and tea from McDonalds along with a bowl of cheerios and a latte. It wasn't exactly healthy. Today? I had cup-o-raman. Not the best thing either.

I've also got to fill out these birthday cards and get them sent off. I think that when the boy wakes up, me and him will walk down to the post office.

I miss my kitty. :(

Well, I thought I was going to have a good payday today. However, they did not change my rate of pay when I got promoted to assistant manager. It was approximately $200 less than it was supposed to be. I was going to go shopping next weekend when TN is having their tax-free weekend on clothing and shoes. I don't need a lot but some polos and new shorts would have been nice. Can I do that now? Not really.

I also cannot get a carseat for my nephew, Grant, that stays in my car. He's getting too big for the infant carrier. Also, it's too damn hard to take the one my Mom and sister has out of their car. Meh.

I'm also feeling a bit weepy today.
