    [EDIT:] Decided to switch back to my keri layout since I didn’t have a background that had tables so that I could use my own layout for now. Lol. I probably won’t update it for awhile because I am busy with life and school. Which btw I am going to try and do all my homework tomorrow. [/EDIT]
    So I haven’t updated in quite some time due to school, work and my babygirl taking up most of my time. Sorry about that. I am also going to try and edit my layout so that it fits higher resolutions, it looks really bad now that I have a widescreen monitor that is 1600×900 and it repeats the background. If only I knew how to center it with each resolution. If anyone knows, please give me the tip! For now, I am using a layout created by someone else, I love it but it definitely isn’t my design and I hate using other peoples designs :sad: maybe it’s a pride thing? I don’t know. This post is taking me two days to write lol. I am quite busy with doing homework and what not.

    I don’t work at JCPenney anymore because I could only work weekends and they said they did not have hours for me so they asked if I could resign. Kind of took me by surprise because I needed the extra money, but hey what are you going to do. They told me to call around June to see if they need me for back-to-school and I more than likely will just because Arianna’s birthday is in August and I want extra money to do birthday shopping.

    Donovan’s job has been kind of blah lately. He has two more training classes to take before he can work full-time and they are kind of on some bs for now. They hired quite a few people and are only training two at a time in a class….which doesn’t make sense. I cannot wait until he starts working so that we can have more money to pay off some bills and what not. I paid off all my credit cards with my tax money so no more interest rates or anything! That will definitely save me some money. I just wish his work would hurry up and give him these next two training classes so he can start working and paying half the bills…it’s definitely stressful. Other than that, school has been going good. I definitely don’t mind these classes since they are design classes but they definitely have a lot of projects and stuff. Sign Language is killing me, we learn a new set of signs every week and it’s hard to keep up….not to mention you have to have 16 hours of study time outside of class, such as going to deaf events and stuff. That definitely is tedious because I haven’t had any…it’s embarrassing to walk into a deaf event and look stupid. I got one hour out of the way doing the online sites and training. But I need 8 by the end of this month. Ugh…I don’t know…I wish I could make up some lol.

    Anyways I am going to go and watch TV and go to bed since I am super tired and got to work tomorrow. Until next time, lol. I am STILL looking for people to exchange links…c’mon I know a lot of people wouldn’t mind!

    flu
    posted on: January 18, 2012 » Comments Off
    [EDIT:] I will update this weekend since I have it off. So look forward to that!! Also now that I got a new computer monitor that has a higher resolution, my layout looks like crap. Definitely got to fix that asap!![/EDIT]


    Well the flu seems to be going around because Monday night my mom was throwing up all night and then last night I started feeling a little sick at school and light headed, I thought nothing of it, just that I was super hungry. Well I got home and laid on the couch watching tv and fell asleep. I ended up waking up at 2:30AM and ran to the bathroom and everything came back up. Then out the other end (TMI I know). So I text my manager and let her know what was happening and I could still come in if she wanted me to. She told me don’t worry about it, she is a very understanding manager and I love her for that. So I laid back down and went back to sleep and then made Donovan wake up to get Arianna ready and off to school. I slept some more and tried to do some things around the house. I got most of my homework done and then started feeling sick again so I laid down and then Arianna got put down for a nap. And here I am…awake again. I’m actually feeling 10x’s better. A little nausea here and there but nothing like before. My mom brought me two things of Gatorade and so I have been drinking that all day. I hardly ate today but as long as I stay hydrated I will be good. I did eat a few pieces of toast because it’s bland and helps with my tummy at least so I can eat something.

    School has also started back up and so far I am liking all of my classes. Intro to Deaf Community, we have already in two classes learned the alphabet and iconic signs, it’s crazy. I only have to submit my Roughs for Type Communication and then this weeks homework will be done except for Intro to Deaf Community.

    I haven’t gotten any inquires about exchanging links/affiliates. So please, if anyone knows anybody that wants to or even themselves, let me know because I am always up for reading new blogs and I also comment pretty much every week, if I had blogs to comment on lol. I don’t want to sound rude but please have an appealing design on your website/blog because I am attracted to that. Ha. Anyways I am going to go and fix my smiley’s since I updated to the new version of WordPress it always messes up my smiley’s. Then I am going to maybe eat more toast and browse the net, plus wake Arianna up so she will go to bed tonight.
