Blue Thursday

The sun is shining bright, but i'm not. It's reflecting off my bosses car out side the door and about to blind me. I'm bored to death, and more than half depressed. The house that i wanted so bad has been rented to someone else, and once again i feel trapped like a mouse in a trap. Tommy told me last night he's about to give up, because he hasn't found the job that he wanted down here. I asked him if he was going to move back to his home town, which is two hours away and he said he didn't want to. I don't know what he wants me to do. I've looked at a couple of places,and called several more. If we would have rented the house that i wanted to we could have been in there by now. There is something else nagging me but untill i get confrimation on it i don't want to even say it, for fear it will be true. Lets just say, i have THE worst timing on the face of the earth. Can you go blind from glare?? lol It just seems to be a blue thursday, anyone feel the same way?

Illistration Friday- Crowded that is

The other day i was reading up on nino's blog when i saw her illistration. (it's so cute you should go look) anyway. She had something about a illistration Friday website. So, being the doodler that i am , i had to go check it out. It is really cool, you get a theme every friday. Then you submit an illistration of your interpretation of it. So i thought i would give it a whirl. This is about the 8th one of these i have done. I thought i had better get it on here and take the leap or i would chicken out.
I think it would be better colored, and maybe bigger so you can see the details better. It is a symbol of my life. I was done on white computer paper, with a #2 pencil. Everything on there is something that i love and crowds me all the same. (See i was so nervous my spelling is all off LOL)

Crowed  

Night Owl

Hey everyone.

I thought i would post the picture of my daughter with her easter shiner. That handsome man with her is my brother. Which is one of her favoritest peoples in the whole wide world. Women of all ages love him, and think he's really cute. To which i promptly say "EEEWWW!" but then he's my brother
Lately, i've been waking up at 1:30 a.m or 2 a.m. and i'm awake, wide awake. Hannah is starting to sleep better, (thank the good Lord) I should be sleeping to right. Oh well, you all should know by now i'm crazy.

Easter Shiner 

Easter Ramblings

Happy Bunny Day everyone! or whoever is actually reading any of this. It's been pretty much the same as any sunday around here. It's been raining several days, and rained today so no egg hunt. Maybe on Tuesday, it's suppose to be in the 60's here. I'm soo ready for spring. Woke up this morning and got dressed for church. Well, i got up and started getting ready. I don't get dressed till the last minute. I'm so graceful i would ruin my clothes and would have to start over if i got dressed first. I filled around 60 easter eggs with candy, and then when hannah banana woke up i got her dressed. Then me. Hannah's eye doesn't look as bad as i thought it originally would. She's got a bruise that looks like a cut on the side of her eyelid, and then it looks like she's good purple eyeshadow on. But everywhere i took her i still felt the need to explain that she fell. People stop me in the store to comment on hannah and her eyes, it does a mothers heart good. At least for the most part. It also scares me a little sometimes.
She is begining to talk, well be understandable more often. It's cute to see her start to jabber, she knows exactly what she is saying. No one else does though. I wonder if toddlers in China, jabber in english? Cause it sure sounds like she is speaking chinese.

whooo mom, bright light! 

Peyton Manning who? 

a shiner for Easter

well, hello, you'll never guess what my 21 month old is getting for Easter. That's right a shiner. I should have known. We have a saying in my family. "Murphy loves us, and Fate hates us!"

It was a pretty good day. I was feeling good. I'm almost into that new, old house. So, i tell my boyfriend. You are taking us out to eat. And being the delightful person that he is. (no reallly honestly) he only turned down 6 or 7 ideas before we settled on one. The food was pretty good. So, Tommy goes up to pay and i set my daugher down out of the high chair. She then proceededs to fall head first, well face first. Her fall was broken though by the side of a chair leg. She's crying and i pick her up and her eye is already swelling not a second after she falls. (Guilt bigg bigg guilt) So we head home for some ice, and tylenol. It didn't seem to bother her much then but now she is waking up crying in her sleep. She is so pitiful, and i of course can't sleep. I had her in my bed but then i was afraid she would tumble out. You know and hit the other eye. She looks like a prize fighter at the moment, eye swollen, not shut just at the top outer corner, like just before they stop a fight. Ok Ok i throw in the towel already.

My opinion (look out here it goes)

I was having a pretty good day, got the kids up and out early, got my daughter to the babysitter early. Life was good. Untill, i looked at my gas gauge. Blink, Blink, "LOW FUEL" Blink, Blink. Ok, i'm not started to hate the gas pump. I'm a single mother, living from one paycheck to the next, trying to get by. Now i have to put some gas in or i won't be able to get to work.
Ok, here goes my opinion. I think one day, lets say a Wednesday, we all don't buy gas. Get your gas the day before or after, but not on Wednesday. If you have to have coffee, go in and get it. I don't want to put people out of a job. But from the way i understand it, the managers only get money or bonuses from what they sell on the inside anyway. You know that the corproate offices get the money from the gas, and they compair it to the year before. So, they would have a loss. Something they definately don't like. And you can't tell me they can't lower those prices. So, i say we don't buy gas one, day a week for a couple of weeks. Then, if that don't get their attention. We do it for a month, and then 2 days a week. What to you think?
Fight the power! lol

What a house

What a house. It's huge, it needs work, we would only be renting it, but i want it. It is the old kind, it used to be apartments up and down. Now he will rent it, the whole house for the price of an apartment. I needs work, it is probably too big for the three of us.... but i want this house. Tommy says i must not jump into it. but i want this house. i'm being unreasonable, impractical. but I want that house. HELPPP!

Time to take the leap, but to what rock???

Ok, so i've been dating my tommy for a year. It's time to get a place together. Right now i live with my sister, and i know it sounds horrible but it's not. My sister and i are best friends.. Really, we are like two halves of one person. Anyway, i split with my husband and have been shareing a bedroom with my neice for over 2 years. I'm ready to have my own room. I want to be a big girl again. Oh, by the way, my daughter is also in the same room. I want privacy back. Tommy is delightful, wonderful. I know it's sickening but thats the way it is. Now just to find a place of our own. One that is close to the babysitter. and everything else. I'm looking at a house today. I'm hoping it will work. The price is right,but it is big. Can we afford to heat it? Is it too much for us. I really want my own place. Well, tune in tomorrow . Same bat time, Same batty channel.

What a day for a daydream...hmmm..humm

Ok, so here i go again, jumping in head first. I've looked at a few of these blogs and thought they were an interesting way to put down you thoughts. We'll see how opening everyday thoughts up to the whole world works.

First, before i ramble too much, let me introduce myself. My name is Jerri Ann. I am a separate, soon as i get the money, divorced woman of thirty-three. I am the mother of a beautiful daughter who is now 21 months old. She is my gift from God. She is the light of my life, the apple of my eye, and the pain in my behind. Her name is Hannah, and she looks just like Boo, from Monsters inc. Except she has the most beautiful blue eyes ever seen. (but i might be a little bias) I am dating a wonderful man, and hopefully will be soon moving in a new place with him.

That's about it for me. There are other non-important stats. That i will get to later.
