Can I be healthly for a second?

I am so sick of being sick! Friday evening I came down with some crazy flu or something. I had a fever, headache and horrible stomach pain. I ended up throwing up overnight and finally recovered in the evening saturday. When all that started I also was feeling something coming on in my throat. Since then I have been fighting sinus problems and losing the war. Today I feel very crappy, my throat is killing me, my nose is stuffy then running. I am taking antibiotics and vitamins everyday and i still feel worse and worse. Can I get some relief please???

My Son is 2!

Yesterday was my sons birthday and I had a blast doing little things  for him to make is special! It was of course a wednesday so we didn't do too much but I think he enjoyed it! He watched a new Dora movie when he got up, instead of the usual penguins. He shared ice cream cups and juice at school which was a big hit! He got to talk to all his relatives on the phone and he got a kick out of the singing! He got a huge smile every time someone sang happy birthday which melted my heart! We had grilled cheese for dinner which he loves and had cupcakes for desert. My silly son ate it cut up with a fork! he doesnt like getting messy. He opened his two presents, Chuck trucks and a garage city thing. He loves those, of course they are trucks! And he ended the evening with his yellow and pink Dora Pj's! What a kid! I love him so much and of course can't believe he is two already and how big he is. Amazing!

I despise computers

In the past two work days I have spent about 8 hours messing with our 4 computers to get them running properly. I want to scratch my eyeballs out! One new computer and BAM! I want to die. What a mess. At least they are finally working and I can actually get something done now, what a waste of time.

I'm officially 25!

My birthday was yesterday. I had a pretty great day too. Yay! I heard from a lot of great friends by text or facebook wishing me a good day and that really made me feel good. I got flowers and a balloon from my parents at work, cookies, coffee and an ice cream cake. I also got dinner out at TGI Fridays! And my baby boy suprisingly was a charming 2 yr. old who listened to his mommy (for once in his life). He was such a sweetie, giving me kisses when I asked and eating his dinner. That made me feel good too! lol.

Friday is the new Monday...Blah

Well of course I had to go and drum up some drama for the weekend. It just can't be a good happy TGIF! I did something bad and SO found out so now I feel like puking because I don't know how he is reacting. I'm slowly ruining my own life and I can't even help it. Great. Too bad I doubt those anti-depressants are going to kick in fast enough to fix a darn thing. This weekend is going to suck now, we are not going to get along all weekend, trying to avoid each other in a two bedroom apartment doesn't work too swell.

Organizing Cubes! Yay!

I got my requested Closetmaid organizing cubes for my birthday from my SO. I already put it together and it looks awesome. It is really sturdy and the bins are perfect for all of my sons toys and I'm thinking even some clothes. Unfortunately we don't have room for it in the living room, it matches furniture in there already (expresso) and is a nice piece. I'm going to be putting it in my sons closet as soon as i find a place for his Step 2 Kitchen (big mistake). I should have some pics up of it soon. Yay! SO did good by following directions, i'm so glad. He knows me all too well. My son is buggin me to play cars with him on the floor...until another day.

Splitsville for one of my faves

I love Chelsea Handler. I watch Chelsea Lately on E! whenever I can. This brings me to the sad news that she split from Dave Salmoni (very good looking Animal Planet guy). They are shown here at a Natasha Bedingfield concert. *What guy would go to such a thing anyway?!

Well I hope she finds another silver fox to replace him and that looks better than Ted Harbert (the one before Dave). Check out this article, there is a great pic of Dave!!! Hot Dave Salmoni Pic

Sweet online store..

So of course I'm already looking for a backpack for school coming at the end of October..haha. At first I was looking for backpacks but then I found http://www.become.com/ . It has a huge selection of bags from different online stores so there are so really great prices to be found.

Now I am looking at the Dakine laptop messenger bag, its approx. $55.00. I think it' cute and it will keep my precious free mac book from getting smashed. HA! Here's the link to see the one I'm eyeing.. Messenger bags: http://clothing-and-accessories.become.com/handbags-bags-and-luggage/messenger-bags

I can really waste some time online here people. Sheesh. I started browsing for Birthday ideas. SO is still bugging me for ideas! I guess my birthday is in like 10 days. Check out these sunglasses: http://clothing-and-accessories.become.com/accessories/sunglasses they have some pretty sweet brands like Oakley, Nike and DKNY. I would never be able to afford those without a bday coming up so I guess it's a perfect gift!

I'M SO EXCITED!!!! YAY!!!

I took my admissions test for Specs Howard - School of Media Arts and I passed it! I did really well which made me feel a little better. I was very nervous before I took it. And my financial aid all worked out to cover the cost of the entire tuition. I didn't enroll yet but I plan to next week after I talk to my parents and figure out babysitting for my son. I'm so freaking excited! I want to scream it out!! I will be going for Graphics Design, it's two nights a week and lots of online work. I get a free mac book to use over the year! Awesome! It's going to be so crazy adding this to my already crazy life but I can't wait. This is what I am really interested in and I'm so excited to get to use the sweet software and lab computers! AHHHHHHHHH!!

Where do restaurants get off?!

For lunch I went to La Terrace Mediterranean Cafe in Southfield. I got a carry out small Greek salad with chicken (cucumbers and feta only). This salad cost me $8.48 and did not even come with pita! WTH?! Pita is kind of an essential with a Greek salad. I also know if I bought that same salad sitting in the restaurant I would have gotten pita! I am so disgusted with how much some things cost these days! I spent $9.68 total for my lunch today and it was definitely sub-par, I didn't even finish it. That's what I get for wanting a Greek salad the day I eat lunch alone. I don't know how 4 little strips of chicken (small - most Greeks come with like a whole chicken breast), 4 cucumber slices, dressing, feta and lettuce (that didn't taste rinsed) costs 9 bucks! Stupid if you ask me, and I will not be going back to La Terrace!!!

No child support = broke mama looking for moola

Thanks to my endearing ex, I did not receive any child support for the month of August. This puts a little monkey wrench in what I call finances. I thought I was doing pretty good keeping track of things using my handy dandy envelope system. Subtract child support and it screws it all up. Not only does it screw up my system, it makes me freaking broke. There goes any little savings I was trying to make and now I will be on a strict budget of absolutely nothing for any extras. My sons birthday is also coming up in 3 weeks.. How are you supposed to spoil a 2 year old when their father doesn't feel like contributing?! It makes me sad really that this has to happen right before his birthday. I just can't catch a break with this dude. What in heavens sake was I thinking being in a relationship with such an infant that can't even do his part in his sons life??

Speaking of this individual - It just popped in my head that it has been a few days over a year that I have not been with this person. That is refreshing even though he continues to cause me trouble in life. That also means that my year anniversary is quickly approaching with my new partner in crime. It has been a bumpy road for us but I really think we have a lot going on and a year is a very big thing! I knew 2010 was going to be great!
