I am enjoying my days off immensely. Today I need to go to the school and start researching for this paper that is due next week. I know, I know I'm such a procrastinator when it comes to these things. I'm doing my paper on diverticulitis which I have FIRST HAND experience with. If you didn't read my last diary then you wouldn't know that almost 3 years ago I had a perforated diverticulitis that landed me in the hospital for 2 weeks and ended with a temporary colstomy and then surgery 6 months later to reverse it. It was not a fun time but I lost a shit ton of weight! All which has come back and then some. DAMMIT! Anyway, I enjoyed my 2 days of work. My second day was much more "typical" they tell me. I enjoy the job and all that I do. The only thing that bothers me is that people stay home on "low census" days and go home early when the floor isn't busy. Well, I don't have the money and PTO to be going home early all the time ya know? So that does concern me. I guess I will figure it all out. It just makes me nervous is all. But I think we can still make it around here. My neighbors (not L.F. and D.B.) are just pissing me off. She has nothing else to do in life but sit around and bitch about every little thing in this apartment. I wish I had that kind of time. Lately it's been the parking situation. She is completely fixated on it and bitches about it every single time she sees us. Supposedly they are supposed to paint apartment numbers on the stalls so that each apartment has one parking space up front. Well the guy that is supposed to be doing that is lazier than crap and hasn't done it. Finally last Sunday he painted on a few. Which is stupid and didn't make sense, why not just spray them all on? But anyway, he did spray their apt number on because she's been bitching. So if anybody DARES to park in that spot when her daughter has the car she marches right up to their apartment and tells them to move. Well, everybody is really getting pissed about it. Yesterday Jax and I kinda got into it with her a little tiny bit and told her that nobody else around here gives a shit who parks where and she's the only one and she needs to let it go. We also loaned them some money a week ago and they were to pay us back as soon as the daughter got her check this week. She got it Monday I think. Guess who isn't paid back yet? But they sure are going out to eat and going and doing all of these fun things but not paying us back. Jax has approached her SEVERAL times about it and she was told that we will be paid back with her NEXT check, that they just didn't have the money to do it this time, that they had so many bills to pay. FUCK THAT. That money was handed over with the agreement that as soon as she got her check we'd be paid back and that didn't happen. So they know we're pissed. Jax went down and talked to them about it again and she mentioned about maybe getting a loan from her dad to pay us back. And Jax told her however she needed to do it was fine but they lied to us about paying us back and that pisses me off. You live and you learn. So we don't be doing THAT again. From now on, she can max up her credit card buying shit online she doesn't need, driving out all of her gas and leaving her mother with no food or money for anything for all I care. Not my problem. You try to be generous and caring and giving and help people you really think need it and they turn around and shit on you and order pizza, and go shooting and eat out fast food and buy all kinds of fun shit and don't pay you back. Just remember that people. So basically I have to listen to her bitch about parking 24 hours a day, 365 days a year right now and it is driving me apeshit. And then I have to watch them piss away OUR money while I don't get paid for another week and we're trying to scrape up money for groceries and toilet paper. Just doesn't seem fair. And people wonder sometimes why I am so cynical. I guess if you get shit on enough times, you'll get that way. It's so hard to be helpful and generous to people you know, they will take complete advantage of you. I think I'll stick to being kind and generous to strangers. At least then if they fuck you over you don't know about it. I hope Cass had a good night at her dad's last night. This was the first time seeing them since the "incident". She really didn't want to go and I told her she didn't have to. But she said she needed to. She didn't want to face what happened last week. She was deathly afraid that they were going to come down on her for telling me what happened last week. I told her if they do and if they had a problem with it, then they need to come to ME and I'll tell them how it is. The fact is it bothered her and bothered her bad. And Cass and I are pretty close and she tells me most everything. So if she's completely upset about something I will know about it. So if they are mad about it, well then she shouldn't have done it. That's THEIR fault, not Cassidy's. She said she didn't want to face it and I told her that there are many things in live we don't want to face but we have to. Maybe it seemed like I was throwing her to the wolves with that one but that wasn't my intention. I'm trying to teach my daughter accountability and also when things happen in life we don't want to face, we need to do it anyway. More times than not it won't be as bad as we had thought but still, we can't hide from our problems. We have to face them head on and then move on. And that was what I was trying to instill in her. But I was still going to support her if she didn't want to go last night. But she did. And I hope it went well. But I'll hear about it later I'm sure. And I guess that's enough as I have typed for hours it seems. Between my neighbors, my ex, and my new job, I need a vacation. Wait, I guess that isn't facing my shit huh? Guess I'd better hang in there. past and future A few hours my ass! - 2007-05-07

I am a 34-year-old college student, mom, friend and all around sarcastic and fun loving person. I'm going to school to be a nurse. I recently quit a high paying job from home to get back into the hospital setting and to get my feet wet in nursing. I work on the Maternal Child Unit which includes the birthing center, perinatal care and Pediatrics. I LOVE IT! These last few years have been all about changes in my life. Although they have required great sacrifice, I know it will be worth it when I'm through. I have a great life and great family and friends and occasionally bitch about my white trash neighbors. Mostly here you will find rants and raves about various people, places, and circumstances. ENJOY! Loves: Nursing, chocolate, my daughter, family and friends, diet coke, Grey's Anatomy (DUH!), being out of my front patio in the summertime with my neighbors, babies, US Weekly magazine, reality TV, being smart and being a mother. Hates: Chemistry, online cyberstalkers who have no life but to be online 24/7 causing drama, my white trash neighbors, pepporoni pizza, mice, bugs, when it's too hot outside and I get sweaty, seafood, backstabbing people, liars, crooks, and when people play the "victim" and whine 24/7.
