pictures--snow today!

haven't posted in a long time...

Wow it is already the new year...2011!  Christmas was okay.  Got a new camera and I love it.  We had our last Christmas celebration tonight.  The DeHart side...I hated it.  It has been 5 years and I still feel like a freaking outcast.  NO ONE will talk to me and when I TRY to join in a conversation they look at me like I am an alien.  I feel like I can't relate to anyone.  I worked really hard last night making pasta salad, 2 cheese balls, and a paradise pumpkin pie. Only 1 piece of the pie was eaten, an Aunt comented that whoever made the pasta salad needed a new recipe (I wanted to throw it in her face) and the cheeseballs went over okay.  I don't even know why I try though.  The things I try the hardest at (like the pie) are overlooked and not appreciated.  I always feel as if I am not good enough.

Sophia cried most of the night and Chris stayed outside in the garage with the guys.  I sat alone with Sophia.  Chris' cousin Casey hates me- she won't speak to me and just glares at me. The rest of them just degrade things I say.  It took me over 2 hours to get ready tonight and I feel like that was a waste.  Chris' cousin Justin said something to me and I wanted to flog him.  I cried most of the way home and Chris felt really bad-even though it isn't his fault.

I am just pissed right now. and feel so alone.

Monday

This week is Thanksgiving week which means I have sick kids. NEVER FAIL.

Last Wednesday night we ended up in the ER with Cooper...he was croupy and couldn't breathe.  Yesterday Sophia had a fever of 103.8, so I took her into the Walk in Clinic-she has a double ear infection and is croupy. sigh.

I signed back up for ancestry.com last night.  I love that website, it is such a time killer and I love trying to find relatives. I just love it.


I have also been signing up for a ton of freebies and coupons.  One of my friends, Jackie, has really been into the coupon groove lately and has got me on board with all the talk.  I saved nearly $60 at Dillions on groceries the other night!  Here are a few websites that have been frequenting:

wow it has been awhile...

Life has been super busy with school and the kids.  My birthday, and Halloween has came and gone and now it is November!  I am sick right now and so is Sophia.  Chris calls us his Vick's Babies lol.  I have a terrible cough and my chest really hurts- I think I have Bronchitis but I don't know.



Good news though- Mom and dad can add me to their insurance plan until my 26th Birthday!!  Thanks to Obama.. guess he is good for something!  So starting January 1, 2011 I will have insurance until October 27, 2011.  I will only have a $20 co-pay so that will be good.

I got almost all of my Christmas shopping done a couple of weeks ago.  It was fun- Lindsey watched the kids for me and I went to the mall in Springfield.  Some of my presents I am going to make, so I can't really get them ready just yet. (food items)  I would like to mail my friend CIS from the food fo something, but I don't know what just yet.  I know I definitely want to make something for him and his wife, but I haven't decided yet what I will make them. I also want to mail CuddleBug something for the kids...and some other gradfo memebers...like vichuds, carebear, and a few others.  I hope I can get it all done!

We bought 25 Easter Egger Chicks last night- they said they were 4 months old, but I think they are more like 3 months old...but I don't know.  I will try to get pics up later.

But anywho here are some pics from this month:
Just a funny pic that I a friend posted on FB---

My new boots that I got for my Birthday: They are Tony Lamas!!

and some scary Halloween pics:

the day after trick or treating...

trying to have a better day

So last night I ended up leaving class- I just couldn't take it any longer- I wanted to throw my book at the teacher, but instead I just left during our 1st break.  I guess I will email him and let him know later.



I am trying to have a better day today.  The house is cold and messy.  I need to clean, do my business homework, figure points, and work on my English homework. sigh.  Wish I could just run away.  School was fun last year- no so much this year.  My classes aren't that interesting and I am getting overloaded with homework. great.

Anyway- I downloaded some more pics this morning- I wish I had a better camera--all I have is my phone...my cheapo phone camera. lol.

Not enjoying class

I am in my English class and I am really not enjoying it.  Last semester my teacher was weird, but I enjoyed it.  This guy just really irks me.  If he doesn't agree with you he treats you like shit.  I really don't want to be here because of the off the wall assignments that follow the same off the wall track.  After being in his class I just want to build a house in the middle of no-man's land and not see other people, have internet, or tv for the rest of my life.  I really don't think he has any religion, or Godly beliefs- he calls it silly all the time and says he doesn't stereotype anyone as he stands in front of me and places stereotype on me.  He says he doesn't insult people by their choices in life- and then goes on to say that Anyone that chooses to be a farmer must be insane--umm insulting.  ARGHDSkalfdlk I am about to walk out of this class right now.  I don't know how much more I can take tonight.  I have 2 more hours of class and right now we are talking about marriage and gay marriage...and religion (which he doesn't know what he is talking about)  I just want to scream and throw a book at his head. but...instead of doing that I am blogging...

Friday

It sure has been a very busy week!  Lots of homework, lots of pictures to edit, and Wednesday I babysat Issac (same age as Sophia).  I have to get caught up in my English class- I am such a procrastinator when I don't have actual deadlines.  I am making myself get everything done by midterm-even though he said that nothing is ever late. Ever.   But I have 5 assignments "due" by October 12th. Yay for me!  Plus, I have my usual online class stuff (I am finally caught up!), my math homework 2x a week, and my Business communications homework.

We got the pics back from the Anniversary party- and they look great. Here are some of them:
