A trip to the emergency room!

We had to take a trip to the emergency room tonight. Dan got a piece of metal in his eye from work and had to get it drilled out. OUCH!! Poor guy! This is the third time this has happened! You think he would change something about what he's doing at work! I guess it comes with the job of being a underground miner. He's conked out on the couch. At least he's on his seven day off rotation, so his eye will have time to heal. I have got to go to bed earlier than last night! I had to get up early this morning and go to work, I was so tired!!! The one cup of coffee is just not cutting it anymore! I have a disaster training tomorrow for work, I have to be there very early so I guess I need to hit the sack! What were they thinking anyways? A training on Saturday! The NERVE!!! Marissa is still awake watching T.V. We allow her to stay up late on Friday nights. She thinks it's a big treat. I think it's funny! She can't make it past ten o'clock. I wonder if she'll get the inside scoop on it!? If she asked to stay up late on Saturdays I think we would be n trouble.

A Unfortunate Turn Of Events!

Homework, Homework, Homework! When will it end! Between homework, work, and home, I'm going insane! I need a vacation! This Blogging is very addicting! I should be doing homework. But, I just couldn't resist coming to this site to write about how I'm feeling! I did a group presentation last night in one of my classes. That group turned solo when it was time to get it prepared. I did everything! The research, the powerpoint, all the hand- outs and I made arraignment's to get a slide show. The other two did NOTHING!! They showed up ten minutes before class and wanted to know what they were suppose to do. So, I delegated. I only thought it was fare that I shouldn't have to do as much in the presentation. One girl said she would do the powerpoint and the other one said she would hand out the hand- outs. (whoopee do) So, I ran the slide show and talked about what was on them. When we got done my professor asked the girl that talked about the powerpoint if she could have a copy, and the girl took credit for it!!, right in front of me. To top it all off we got our evaluation back and the damn professor credited the other two girls for their work. My name was no where to be found!!! I know that It wouldn't bother me so much if she would have just credited our group as a whole for doing a job well done. I didn't care at the time that the professor wasn't aware that is was all me who did the work. I just wanted it to be over. I knew also whatever our grade was that I would know and those two girls would know who really earned it. But she actually put names to the things she liked and they where not my name, and it should of been my name. Now, I'm well aware of what took place and I feel like a door mat that they wiped their feet on. That's what I get for being so dumb! I'm definitely going to bring this situation to light to my professor at our next class. I couldn't say anything last night to her because I knew if I did I would start to cry. Then I would look like a even bigger ass. Oh my gosh! It's midnight! I've got to get off of here I have to work tomorrow! It should be rather interesting. I stuck my foot in my mouth today at work and said some things to my boss that I probably shouldn't have. I'm just sick of doing the work and someone else getting the credit for it. It's a cold world out there. Everyone for themselves! If your wondering I got a 100% on the presentation! Not to shabby!

Date Night

Last night was date night. Me and Dan went to the movies and out to dinner. Marissa stayed the night at her aunt's house. It was a very nice break! The movie we watched was Firewall, It was OK. I think I would have rather gone to a chick flick though. Then I was wined and dined at wingers. Whoa - Who!! Marissa wanted to go out on a date with her daddy! She asked me on Thursday if I was going to bonco( on bonco nights they go out on a date). I told her no. She seemed not to be upset. I told her that it was our turn to go on a date. Well, on Friday Dan informed me that he was going to take Marissa out since I had bonco. I told him that I didn't. You can guess were he got his info from! She can be very sneaky at times. She told him that I would be gone! That stinker!!! Dan is such a good dad! Marissa is going to have such high expectations of men when she' s older. On Valentines Day he took a rose to her school and gave it to her in front of her classroom. He told her that the rose he was giving her represented the rose before she was born. (when I was pregnant I received a dozen red roses on Valentines Day with one pink one that represented her) When she got home from school he gave her a bouquet of roses, one for each year that she's been alive. It was very sweet. I told him Wow, does this mean I get a bouquet of thirty roses? I'm not complaining though! If he treats out daughter like that, imagine how he treats me. He's wonderful!

It's Friday!

Thank - You!! The weekend is finally here!! Hopefully I can get some rest time in. I took my math test today, I got a 84% ! I guess it could be worse. So, I'll take it and run!! I've been looking everywhere for the song "Some Where Over the rainbow" that was featured in Fifty First Dates at the end of the movie. I finally found it! It's by Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwo'ole. It's honestly one of the best versions of that song I've ever heard. I'm going to be working on a graduation power point and I think that song would be perfect. Marissa got another 100% on her spelling test today, that girl is going to put us in the broke house. We thought we were so clever when we told her we would reward her with money for every 100% she got. Obviously she was the smart one.

Time Is Fliying!!

Is it just me, or does it seem like the older you get the faster time goes bye? I remember when I was little and use to think that I would never grow up. Now that I'm older, I would just like it to slow down a bit! I just would like to take it in more. I think all of this has to do with me turning Thiry in a couple of months. I have always tried to invision what I would be like when I was Thirty, and honey this just is'nt it! I still feel so young and I still have so much to accomplish! These days are very hectic! From the time I wake up until the time I go to bed. I feel like I'm on a wild goose chase, trying to get everything done that I need to get done! Between homework and tests, my work, my volunteer work(I'm so sick of g.s cookies), my daughter and my husband, I feel like I'm going to lose my mind! How do single parents do it? KUDOS to all of you who do it each and everyday!! I have a math test tommorow, wish me luck!
