Moment of silence for the Hurricane victims.

I am saddened by all that has happened in the past couple of days. Not only did we get sucker punched but we all our affected by Mother Nature herself in a fury that is undescribed. Why does she have to be so forceful....gez we know what damage can be done. I can't imagine what the people are going thru down south. Nowhere can I dream how terrible the devastation must be like.

I myself am living in my own hell right now. Not happy whatsoever. I quit one of the best jobs ever cause of money reasons then the hurricane comes and affects gas prices. I have some personal issues to discuss with a certain someone in my life. There are things being done that I just will not deal with. I refuse to let this lifestyle affect me. All I have to say is, I don't believe in using prescribed drugs that are not your own to relieve pain or to get some other feeling from it. I am putting my foot down and standing my ground. If they don't like it, then I will kindly escort them out the door. Love don't matter here its having trust and right now its gone. I am confused in alot of things right now and I don't need this extra pressure in my life. God help me decide what to do.

I decided to have a list of things to get done since I am home. Like cleaning the house and other things too. I have a list of 15 things that need to get done. So far I have done 3 of them. Wish me luck on the other 12....lol.

Don't talk to me...

Unless you want to hear crying. I had to quit my job due to financial reasons. I am so distressed right now. I am torn up over this. I do not know how I am going to cope with this. Its like someone dying, you will never see it again. See the whole thing started when it rained last week when it rained. That means I don't work. Well I was sick for two days and then two days off with the rain, well that leaves me with very little money. I have a Son to take care of and rent to pay, and other things to pay. My Son needs a haircut so bad. I don't know what to do. I am so upset.

Pray for People in New Orleans and other places.

I've been watching the coverage for Hurrican Katrina. I hope and pray that everyone that could get out safely and are on higher ground. Reading other blogs and especially my girl in Florida she said its going to be bad. And she's had her fair share of Hurricanes. I am worried about the pets as well. This is the time that people abandon their animals thinking they will be ok in their houses. I have 6 precious cats/kittens and I couldn't bare to think about leaving them.

Had a good weekend, we went on a road trip on Saturday. Went to Maquokata Caves, then up to Crystal Lake Caves, in Dubuque, IA. Then off to Galena for a walk around town. Then we stopped off at Palisades State Park in Illinois. I got some great pictures, now just have to wait to get them developed.

Well got to get little man ready for school. Second full day....whooo hooo!!!

Hi.

Hello, and welcome to my little corner of the world on the WWW. Just a little information for you, when you leave comments and stuff don't use my name whatsoever, this is to protect me from "strange" people reading my blog and telling stories and so forth. My life is as boring as it gets but still. So what if I have the craziest kittens in the world right now, a boyfriend and a wild child. That is me.


Anyhooo, I am sitting here still debating on quitting or not. I am going in today probably to be sent home from the weather again... but bad bad dream before I woke up. That I had just gotten home from the weather being bad and I couldn't get my top off and there was a tornado coming and I was pantless going nuts. I was ballistic. Cause I couldn't find my Son who was at school. Well, I have to get little man dressed for his first full day of school. You know what's funny??? And I will get slammed for this. But the parents that go pyscho over their kids first day of school like in first grade. OMG, it cracks me up. Yes our kids are growing up fast, so get over it and start thinking about college. LOL. Well gotta get dressed for success....NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First day of School.

Today is my Son's first day of school. I am excited but he isn't. He is eating his pop tart and watchin' cartoons before his short day begins. I am happy that he is back in school and ready to conquer 3rd grade. My Little boy is growing up. How scary is that? His Grandma Judy is going to be here when he gets out of school today cause I have to work and I hate asking my own family to watch my Son. So she is going to spend the afternoon with him. He needs to spend more time with her anyway. Hopefully it will be a short day cause of the supposely rain we are suppose to get. See when it rains/thunderstorms we get sent home. I really don't want to go anyways. I'm stressed to the hills right now about work. I think I should talk to my boss about working less days. Cause already next friday there is no school and I have no one to watch my Son while I work. Just like today, I told my work I would be late cause its only an hour of school and I have to make sure he is picked up. That means I get an hour of peace and quiet...whooo hooo!!!!



I wanted to show you what the inside of the tram car looked like. Here is a link, go check it out if you have never been in the Arch before.

Been thinking alot...


that some things in my life need to change. I've been wanting to quit my job cause of the manager there make me feels worthless. He's trying NOT to but I guess when you let someone get away with it for so long its hard not to. We have gone thru 2 other girls because of his manners and behavior. So I am truly contemplating on leaving. I had a bit of good news today, my Ex is finally going back to work tomorrow after a 3 month hiatus of NOT paying child support. UGHHH!!!!! That is why I started working in the first place to help out in paying for stuff for my Son. I don't like to depend on people for stuff like that. Wish me luck on making the right decision.

I am still in heaven over the fact I went up in the Arch in St.Louis,MO. on Sunday all by myself. Well at least with 4 other people in a little bitty tram car. It fits 5 people and your all crapped together. Very interesting...let me tell you. Thank God No One Smelled bad. Well, not in the mood to chat or talk. Been still feeling under the weather, today I was short of breath again. UGH!!!!


I have to post my favorite picture from the trip!!!

Here's my trip!!!



It started out talking about going to St. Louis Zoo over a week ago. Didn't think we would actually go. So Friday Night we left here about 4pm, started our 4 hour journey to a unknown place to me. It was a nice quiet ride. Beautiful skies. There was a Thunderstorm in the sky and it was so beautiful cause it was just one big cloud. Any way my BF told me that we would see the Arch before we get into St. Louis. I didn't believe him...lol. Well we were gettin' pretty close and I didn't see it. So I kept looking and looking then all of a sudden, I saw it. I had tears come to my eyes. Never seeing something so HUGE was awesome. So we go past it cause our hotel was on the Southwest side of St.Louis. We drove for almost an hour to find it. We got off at the wrong intersection. So somehow we ended up downtown. WHOA....big mistake. There was a Cardinal Game going on and a Riverfront Concert underneath the Arch. I didn't know until Later that Busch Stadium is going to be demolished to make room for the future stadium. I took a pic of it on Sunday so you can see it later. We actually drove right past it. Drove past Union Station, which was neat. Well somehow we found our hotel got settled it, decided what the hell lets go to Walmart. I found it off the highway...he he he. Right down the road. WHOO WHOO. Go there, stop at Steak and Shake cause we were hungry. Oh forgot to tell you I bought tickets for Six Flags St.Louis at the hotel for only $26.00 so we were set for the next day. If you click on the link for Six Flags, you will see The Tornado on there. I RODE THAT. Let me tell you it scared the shit out of me. OMG. Made me think about somethings going down. We rode two roller coasters, The Boss and The Screamin' Eagle. Rode the Raging River Ride and decided to go to Hurricane Harbor and spend the rest of the afternoon. Played in the lazy river, the wave pool. I was tired and ready to go so we went home. Went and got something to eat at Smugala's Pizza which was adjacent to the hotel...see the link. Went back to the room decided to go swimming for a bit. Sit in the hot tub and relax which was short lived cause you know when kids come along they are loud and don't care. Went back to the room took a shower decided to go joy riding down Lindbergh Blvd to find SONIC or a Starbucks. Found no Starbucks, ok I can live with that. BUT found SONIC. OMG. It was awesome. I want more and more. Went back home and went to bed. We got up on Sunday and went to the St.Louis Zoo. Walked around for hours. Nothing like our Zoo here which you can walk around in about an hour and your done. Rode the train all the way around looking at everything. I took pics of penguins, elephants, polar bears, sea lions, and other animals. After we walked around for what seemed forever we were so tired. We still had one more place to go. The Arch. We had to figure out how to get there for one, so we followed the signs, paid to park and walked to the Arch. I had to touch it. It was magnificent. I wanted to go in cause I am a thrillseeker as my BF calls me. Went in and got the scare of a lifetime. There was a bunch of people waiting to walk in the doors, well all of a sudden the security guard comes up to us and tells us to stay where we are, and started turning people away. Telling them we had a issue being dealt with. There was a high elevation of something being detected amongst the group of people. We couldn't leave or anything. Found out it was a flaw with their detector so we go in and its amazing, its a museum underneath it. I wanted to go up so bad to see what it was like. SO my BF paid for my ticket and I went up. It was beautiful and I took pics. I took pics of the capital building and Busch Stadium. It was life changing for me. Took so many pics had to change my roll of film. So I only have one nuch for now, will have more later. Well, off to home we go. We took yet another detour home. We stopped off at our Capital Springfield, Illinois. Went to see Lincoln's Tomb. I took pics too. Drove by the Capital itself, then home we came. DRove by the Illinois State Fair, which was huge. I will put a link up of my pics here soon.

Chest hurts so bad. So I am going to see what is wrong with me. And maybe get some antibitotics for this stupid sinus infection. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
