Ok yal... Words cannot express how happy I am to do done with all this stuff. I'm tired of Tweeting, posting and blogging! UGH!!!  I understand it's all apart of the process for this class, but seriously my least favorite thing to do.... I'm just being honest. HOWEVER, guess who is excited for graduation??? Meeeeeeee!!!!!! I think the Lord for getting me this far man you have no idea!  There have been plenty of times I didn't think I was going to make it out of Bradley! When you have to work because you have a family that depends on you, and you're trying to better your circumstances by going back to school it can get hectic.  BUT GOD! Kept me and did not allow me to quit.  Through it all I stayed sane, and cracked this work out semester after semester... And now it's time to move on and do heaven only knows what!  Man I wish I was younger getting my degree... I would have moved somewhere I didn't know anyone and started over.  I kn...

Being a Grow Up

  This is too much... I've been adulating for waaayyyy tooooo long.  Growing up I was in such a rush to be grown... so at 19 I had my first kid which left me no choice.  At this point I've been adulating for so long that the days of not having any responsibilities seems like it never happened.  Now that I'm finally almost done with school I have to adult some more.  Making the choice between the job of my dreams and a good job ready for me now isn't as easy of a choice as I was expecting it to be.  Unlike other students half my age I need something now.  I have a household that depends on me, so the sooner I can finally make some real money the better. I've been incredibly Blessed since my kids were small to always have a pretty good job.  Now I want to settle into my career, and make a difference in the company.  This isn't all about the money for me it's about being an asset, and a valuable member of a team (the money is...

Teenagers for SALE

Where should I start.... Oh yeah! My kids are spoiled! And yes I know it's my fault... I was super spoiled the same way growing up so I guess a lot of how I am comes from that.  I also feel like I have to over compensate because the majority of their wants, and needs come from my household.  But sometimes I want to kick myself, because it's getting out of hand! I work very hard to provide for them and they see me working day and night to get done with school, take them here, there and everywhere in-between on top of going to work ect.... But does that register when they want something..... HELLLLLLL NOOOOOOO! I could have JUST sat down, and here they come and not with a "Hi Mom! How was your day" but with a "Moooommmm I need, I want, can I thins, can I that" OH yeah and YOU take us, because my friends parents aren't running us all over creation like you will because you don't want us out walking the streets after dark! I need to be on...

So this post is totally last minute, because honestly I don't have anything to talk about this week! However, I did have a horrific experience last night... Christian wants to drive me places now because she's in "Behind The Wheel"... (Jesus be a seatbelt) For the record she sits straight up in the seat with her chest almost touching the steering wheel which alone makes me nervous as hell. Very long story short I made her go the back way to our destination because it was after 4pm and traffic picks up, and I'm not ready for that kind of pressure. Back roads didn't prove to be any easier! We got honked at and I'm pretty sure the city bus driver cussed us out! By the time we made it to where we were going she hit the curb twice when I asked her to get over to other cars go by, and her reasoning for that was "they haven't taught us to do that yet" WHAT!!! All you had to do was move over a little, and slow down like I told you to!  OMG!...
