Yup, can't sleep.

Pues... I felt so responsible today for filing my taxes, and yet I must send them again, but by paper. It seems I'm listed as a dependent and the IRS reJECted my federal return. It burned. But I'm figuring it out with the help of Dad, Mum, and Tim.


On a different note, I've resolved to grow out my hair. I want it to be spectacularly long... Or Pentecostal long. Same thing, I suppose. So, I'm going to grow it out for 6 years. I might trim my bangs or I might grow that out, too. I'm deciding as I go along. Already I'm happy with how long it's gotten.
See? Isn't it pretty?^_^ Kevin took this picture. I like it.


I really shouldn't be up this late with work in the morning, but I feel a little better and at least more rested after leaving super early on Friday. I went to the doctor that day. Doc doesn't know what's wrong but did some blood work and said he'd get back in touch. I'm always tired, get headaches constantly, and have frequent stomach problems. And so the quest for answers begins. By the way, I'm not anemic. I do know that much.


TECTA class tomorrow. It's pretty interesting, though the first class was mostly a commercial for TECTA.

I'm ready. It's a new week and a new start. I'm ready to do things around the house, do things for the daycare, and knit a totally awesome slouchy hat for Kevin. He picked out some beautiful yarn with the intent to make a hat for himself but then told me I could make it for him since he's pretty involved in Gentoo stuffins these days. That's my sweet nerdy boy. :p Can't believe it's been 15 months (as of last Wednesday). <3 :D What's that, you ask? That's my giant heart smile. or my favorite <3)

Goodnight!

Peanut butter jelly time!

Yup, I couldn't sleep so I made myself a sangwich. NOM. -ahem- -composes self-

Here on this early March morn, I sit in the computer room of the apartment. Kevin and I are making progress, if ever so slow, to get settled into this place. I told him it would take a while! I should do the dishes today. Any way, the real news is that I got another promotion at work. I'm now head teacher in the nursery, where before I was the assistant teacher in the preschool room. Instead of being assertive with children, I'm now being assertive with adults... That's a generous term. How to word this... The assistant teacher likes to throw in her two cents, and she's certain about everything she says. As a skeptical person, this ANNOYS THE CRAP OUT OF ME! But I digress.

I want to get a digital camera to bring to work. A couple of coworkers will sometimes bring a disposable camera and take some cute pictures of the kids, but the quality is awful! At least a digital camera would show me the pictures before they're developed. I'm tired of washed out, blurry kids. I doubt the parents care if the photos don't look professional.

I know I have very little money (I've three weeks into a put 50.00 into saving from each paycheck, and I get paid every week) and I know I'm saving up to potentially buy a car, but that doesn't stop me from looking at t shirt websites. http://www.vintagecotton.com/shirt/lebowski_baseball_raglan/ That's right, people! But, ugh, I don't want to pay 30.00 for a shirt.

For the record, 3:00am is a lame time to wake up. Will I go back to sleep now? It's almost 5. I'm practically awake and ready for the day. I'm not any more awake than this when I get ready to go to work. On a Saturday, this kind of behavior is shameful, though.


All out of ramblings for now.
