My frustrations

So I'm sitting here in class....as you can tell I'm not paying much attention......playing on my laptop. Can I say THANK YOU to the person who invented laptops, without them I'm pretty sure there would be a lot of college drop outs. Seriously what would we do without Facebook, Myspace and any other website that keeps us occupied while we hear boring lectures. Today is definitely one of those laptop days for not only me but I'm pretty much so sure almost every girl in this class has her laptop up. Does the professor not realize that no one is paying attention? Is he really that wrapped up in his lecture he can't see that there are no eyes on him?

Since I'm not going to pay attention to him I'm just going to keep writing my blog so it seems like I'm taking notes from his "AMAZING" lecture.

College definitely hasn't changed after 5 years of being here. I kind of miss teaching myself like I did last semester when I was pregnant with Brody. The whole idea that I have to sit in a room with a bunch of other people listening to a professor go on and on about something that I will never use in my entire career really bores me. I can't wait til May when I will be completely done with college.....the $20,000 a year for 5 years , late nights studying and lack of time spent with my family will no longer be an issue!!! WOOHOO!!!

Other than college being a pain in my butt, work has started to become a bigger headache than a stress reliever. I love the idea of my job, but I've started disliking the environment that its in. For an instance, for the past couple weeks the type of workers that are employed at the office are really starting to differentiate: the workers and the space fillers. This issue has not only gotten worse as each day goes by but is completely out of hand. I'm the type of person who will help at any area I am need (i.e. insurance, nurse, bill, etc) which is how many of the employees are, but there are those "black sheep" that find it necessary to only help themselves or do nothing at all. This PISSES me off so bad!!!!! I've really tried not to say anything but its to the point now where I really can't control what I say. I don't feel like it is ok to do nothing and put your work on everyone else. I've prayed and prayed about the situation, but I feel that now the only way I can not be bothered about the situation is to leave, move on and find another job. Do I want to do this? NO! I just can't keep doing my job and having to re compensate for the things they didn't do.

Please pray for the office that things will be resolved!

FYI ASHLEY IS COMING HOME SATURDAY!!!! PRAISE GOD!!!!!!

Why rush????

I've come to realize that God has blessed me with an amazing other half. I will admit we have had our ups and downs, our fights, and our make-ups but isn't that what makes loving someone so wonderful? Our relationship hasn't been storybook ideal, especially since we were surprised to find out Brody was on the way....don't get me wrong I wouldn't take a bit of it back. I guess what really kind of bugs me is how fast people rush into things: careers, marriage, expanding families, etc. I admit when I found out I was pregnant a million things ran through my mind and most of them were pretty selfish ideas, but one thing that didn't worry me was marriage. YES, I love Blake with all my heart and yes I will marry him....one day, but I was not about to push him into such a huge commitment if both of us wasn't ready. We both feel that marriage is something you only do once and if that means you have to constantly work on keeping the relationship strong you do so. After almost 3 years you'd think I know him pretty good, but everyday I learn something new about him....something that makes me fall more in love with him. By having a child I have come to appreciate what he does for me and the things he gives me........BRODY.

I was on the phone this afternoon with someone I'm really close to listening to her problems she's having with her boyfriend of 5 years. Hearing some of the things he does and says to her makes me so extremely mad. I mean seriously is there really any need to be so degrading to another human being? NO!!!! It has taken her 5 years to realize that this guy isn't good enough for her and that she deserves so much better than him. Hearing situations like this one really makes me not only grateful to have Blake but also makes me want to be completely certain about the next big step....marriage. With the divorce rate being so high, I feel that it is vital to truly know your significant other before you make such a huge commitment.

I know that when Blake and I finally do get married I will not only be marrying my best friend but the one person who knows me completely just as well as I know them.

Sick Humor

Blake's at work, Brody's passed out and I'm sitting here.....bored. Oh what fun I'm having! OK so I'm the type of person who gets freaked out by the smallest thing.....I like the idea of watching scary movies but I'm too afraid to watch them, I love old houses but I'm terrified of knowing what was once in them, I like having me time but I hate being alone....does this make sense? NO!!! So here I am sitting in this old cabin basically by myself because I don't think a 3 month old really counts as having company especially since he's asleep. Blake's at work as usual which constantly takes all his time, he's an embalmer which that alone is a little odd. His sense of humor comes from the grotesque funeral home jokes.....people are just dying to come see him....haha not funny!!!! Recently he thought it was absolutely necessary to tell me the previous owners died in the cabin. HELLO!!!! Was that really important to a person who is scared of pretty much everything? I know there's nothing really wrong with this house and I know the creaky of the hardwood floors is due to the fact that its an older house but I can't help but get a little creeped out every time I hear something. The entire cabin is lit up like a Christmas tree and I'm sure Blake will kill me when he gets the power bill but oh well. I'm alone in a cabin in the woods with my little baby boy what else can he expect....right? Please pray for me that I don't scare myself to death:)
