another year

anothet year and more of the same. why do we let ourselves get stuck in the same rut over and ovet

End of Another Year

Things never seem to go as any of us wish, but here we are at the end of another year and atleast our family has moved forward somewhat in this time period. I am now a grandma a second time over and my oldest still needs to figure things out because I can no longer do it for her. Guess I was to overbearing, lol, me never. She has to make her own mind up. As for Danielle she seems to be doing fine but still needs to find a stable direction which I think she might have. Now as for Destiny the child is as manic as she has always been. Bouncing from one extreme to the next, but I have come to expect it from her. If not our lives would be pretty boring.

WTF

Reality

We wonder why people seem so confussed with how the world it today. It is simply because they chose not to open their eyes and realize the world is what we have made it, nothing more nothing less. Look at it, the goverment is ready to shut down because it is broke, we have people that can not find a job. We have children that will never know the joys we found as teens actualy getting to work that pathetic fast food job, because adults are now working them. Parents are having to take out school loans that will keep them from buying a home because college prices are through the roof.

None of this is going to fix the world!!! Get rid of the unions is what I say!!! What do they do anyway besides keep people in a job tat should have retired 20 years ago, because they can still get paid and bring home those extreme union benifits because they are fully vested and are making anywhere between 15 and 20 dollars an hour even if they can not do near as much as a 30 year old. So what are we going to do, other then just sit here on our hands like the rest of the country and watch it all die. Seriously we need to stand up and take back our lives and our childrens lives otherwise nothing will go back to the way it should be. Where we might be able to live in happiness, and be able to pay our bills, provide for our children so that they might learn how to do this for their children when they grow up!!!!

Mass Delusions

Another month nearly over and we are no further ahead then befor. Things seem to spiral out of control most times here and no one seems to understand why, but yet they do nothing to stop it or even prevent it.

My trend with friends seem to be carring over out here. Make a good friend and then you or them change jobs and then there seems to be no more, guess I am one of those destined to only have my family close. Either that or I am just losing my mind which could be.

My Lupus seems to be running me and not the other way around. I thought things were controled but it appears things that can not be seen are what is effecting me the most. The pain is begining to drive me insane. The constant ache all over is the worst, nothing seems to help. I dont want to have to depend on pain meds but it looks like I might have to ask for something with my new doctor as soon as I get the appt. set.

I want to get back to my writting but I just can not seem to pin my mind down long enough to get anything down on paper or even in the computer here. I am ready to give up but not just to that level yet. i can not concentrate or think straight half of the time anymore. Maybe it is just more effects from my lupus yet another thing to check with the doctor for.

Mass Confussion

Some never seem to understand that you are just trying to help. Trying to send them in the right direction. So we just push and push, but they don't budge. They still follow the path that will lead them in to trouble. Why can they not see that you are just trying to keep them from Doing what you did, and that you know it will bring them to no good.

Like my oldest wanting to connect with a father that never caredabout her or her sister. She does not seem to realize I am just trying to stop her from feeling the pain I know it will cause. For a father to turn away from his children at suc a young age is the most disgusting thing in the world. To want to sign over custidy just so you don't owe child support is just Pathetic, and that is what my ex offered!!!!

Yet here is my oldest wanting to chose her low life father over a mother who has been there every freaking minute of her life. To me it makes no sense. I never did this to my dad, why is she doing it to me???

Yes I know I push her, but you have to push a teenager to get them to do anything. So that they can understand why they have to do certian things so that they can survive in the cruel world we live in. I believe we are here to help our kids but they must test us everyday just to try the bonds that we make for them.

I just want my girls to have it better then I have had it. I don't want them to have to live paycheck to paycheck. I want them to be able to live their lives to the fullest. To be able to have everything they want. Not having to scrimp and save for every damned penny.

Not Good Enough

Well Here we have it, almost a year since my last update on here. I knew that it was going to be hard out here, but hard is not even close to what reality is out here. My husband lost his job and was home for over three months looking before he was able to find another one. I personally think that is just insane with someone of his skill and drive, but that is the world we live in today. There are so many people out there that need and want to work yet these big companies refuse to hire because their bottom line doesn't look like they want it to.

Then you have people like me who put everything they have into their job and pride theirself on doing their best every damn time they do anything. You know the old saying about having to give 110%, well I got told that giving 110% was not good enough anymore. How can anyone ask you to give anymore I already spend more time at work for my miniscull pay then I do at home. All I have time to do is go to work and come home to sleep. What kind of a life is that? Seriously what do these people want. I come to work sick, in pain but yet I do my job and then some.

So with that said what do I do. my boss gave me 45days to improve. I told him that was a slap in the face honestly. I do more then any other manager I work there with. I am never late, I don't call in sick. I am there almost 30 minutes early every freaking shift. I take orders, buss tables, expidite the food, stock whats needed, try to make all the guest happy, and that is just in the rest. I also go to the outlets like we are supposed to. I have spent so much time at the outlets lately my main staff thinks I have forgot about them. I am the only manager that goes up and gives a stupid potty break every damn day for the same girl. Come on I don't see my boss doing that. I spend so much time up in the towers cleaning the floors, and running to the other property to get money for the cashiers and the attendents, I don't know whether I am a damned goofer or a manager.
