Just my luck.

Just my luck. On Friday April 20th, I was at work and ready for a busy day when wouldn't you know it, I hurt myself at work. Go figure. I was only there for 1hr and a half and I hurt myself. I was pulling one of those metal flat bed carts at Lowe's in the lawn and garden center. I was walking fast and slowed down on my pace and I was pulling that cart behind me and I forgot to push back one the cart to slow it down and it ended up running up the back of my leg right above my heal. Oh my goodness it hurt so bad. I felt like my foot, ankle and lower part of my leg was on fire. It also broke the skin on my leg. I cried a little bit and whinned like a little baby. I just carried on about how much it hurt, it felt like some one stuck a hot iron on my leg and left it there. My best friend Christie who is also my co-worker took me to the ER to get me checked out. I knew nothing was broken but we wanted to be on the safe side. They took some X-rays and gave me and ice pack and some pain reliever. Nothing strong because I wanted to be able to drive home from work when we got back there. Just when I thought I was free to go the nurse came in to the room and gave me a tetanus shot, lucky me I didn't feel it because I was so focused on the pain in my leg. Christie was such a super trooper trying to comfort me and trying to distract me from the pain. It worked for like a few seconds, but I was still a crabby little baby about the whole pain thing. Thank you Christie for being there for me, I appreciated it, just in case you read this. Oh by the way I did received my 2nd paycheck like I was supposed to, for those of you who read my other post. Well until next time have a great day.

What's up with the weather?

Seriously what is the deal with this weather. One minute it is warm and nice and the next it is cold and snowing. This weather isn't even fit for the birds. It doesn't make work very fun either. All the plants are inside and there isn't much to do besides pulling the plants that are almost dead and trimming the dead stuff off of the salvageable plants. Just wait until the weather gets nicer, then we will be very busy trying to get the plants back outside and making everything look normal again. We will have so much to do that we won't know where to start.

On a different note, I can't wait until Wednesday the 18th. That is when I am supposed to be getting my check. At least I hope that I will be getting my check. I mean last time was a joke. I will probably blow a gasket and go completely mad. All I got to say is that there is absolutely no reason for my money not to be in my account that day. There wasn't any excuse before except that they messed things up on there end. I pray for no mistakes this time.

Earlier today at my other job I got stuck in an elevator. That sucked. I got on and the main level, I walked on and pushed the number and the doors closed and then nothing happened. I didn't really notice at first because I had a song running through my head at the time and then I realized that there was no dinging, that stupid little noise that the elevator makes when you reach every floor. I looked up and I saw that I was still on the 1st floor, so I pushed the 10th floor button again and still nothing. I push that button like a 10 times and nothing. So then I pushed the open button and the doors still wouldn't open. I pushed it like 20 times. Feeling a little insecure I called my friend Christie, and told her what happened. She laughed and told me to press the alarm button. I didn't want to because I didn't want to scare the elderly residents that lived in the high rise where I was trapped. Then I read the little do not panic sign to my friend and just when I started to open the little door with the phone in it the elevator door opened to my surprise, and there was a man there who just so happen to here me talking to my friend and he got me out. I was very relieved. I was in there for almost 20 mins. I figured I would be in there all day. I am just glad that I wasn't. The guy who heard me was like "Yeah I heard someone say Hey man I'm stuck." It was weird but funny. I was surprised that my phone even worked on the elevator, and further more I can't believe that I didn't pick up the elevator phone sooner, instead of calling my friend. Who the heck does that any way. Dumb! That's okay I just needed a familiar voice so that I wouldn't lose my cool and panic.
Well that's all for now, until next time have and great day and I hope nobody else out there gets stuck too.

Ooops! Sorry Dad.

So far I have been so consumed with trying to get my first paycheck from my second employer that is has pretty much consumed my life. I wasted alot of time and energy on it. So much that I forgot about what is most important to me, family. I forgot about my Dad's Birthday that just passed on April 7th, he turned 60yrs old. I was so depressed about not getting my check that I completely for got to pick my Dad up the the Nursing Home. I ment to celebrate it with him and have a get together at my house. But I got so wrapped up in trying to get my check that I totally forgot. Of course to make matters worse my 3 brothers forgot too. I am the one who does all of the reminding in the family, so everybody forgot. I felt so bad when I remembered at 11:47pm that night. So I picked up my Dad the next morning and took him to church for Easter services and there I wished him a happy birthday. He had fun at church and since he was a visitor the got to get in the door prize action that they had after services. It wasn't much but he won a $10 gift card to Walmart. So now I have plans to take my Dad out with my next check providing that I get it on time next week. I just won't tell him about it I will suprise him so that he won't get his hopes up and then me mash them with the lack of money. At least he had fun on Easter,only it doesn't fix the guilt that I have for being so selfish and forgetting about him in the 1st place. Oh well until next time ya'all, have a great day.

Dude Where's my Money.

Let me tell you a little some thing about me before I tell you my troubles. First of all you don't mess with my Family, My money or my food. Mess with those is like playing with fire when it comes to me.

I started a new job that I spoke about earlier, and it is alot of fun with my friend, that is until you don't get paid. This job only pays its employees by means of direct deposit. I gave them all of the information that they needed to do this and I was told that I would have to wait 3 weeks before I recieved my 1st paycheck in my bank account, since I started in the start of the pay period or something along those lines. I made sure that I gave them the correct information, I double checked it too. I was supposed t get my check on Wednesday April 4th 2007. Well let me tell you, there was nothing there. So I called the corporate office and they told me that for some reason it went to a paper check and that it got mailed out to me. I explained to them that I don't get half of my mail in the first place and that I have lived in my place of residence for 7yrs come November 2007. So I wasn't comfortable with it coming clear from PA to IL. So they said that they would put a stop payment on the paper check and redo my direct deposit. They told me that I would have my check in my account for sure on Friday April 6th 2007. They told me that they didn't send all of the forms the 1st time around, and that is why I didn't get my money on the 4th, but my money would for sure be there on Friday April 6th2007. Well I never got my money today and trust me I was heated. But I remained as calm as I could and called corporate again. They couldn't tell me why it didn't go through because the guy who handles that, who is in charge, was not there and would be there today. So they told me that they would issue me out another check and send it out again only they would express mail it to me and I would recieve it on Saturday April 7th 2007. They told me that I would have to sign for it too, I just hope that I get it or I will really snap and lose my cool. I will probably do a lot of cursing since there isn't much else I can do that wouldn't result in my getting into trouble, I don't want that a least cursing won't get me throwed in jail.
This has been so frustrating for me because I have bills that have to be paid and I can't which means that late fees will be applied to all the ones not paid, which is not my fault and out of my control. How is that fair to me. It would be different if I just decided not to pay any bills but I didn't get to choose that it just happened. Making me look bad to my debtors.
I am a single mother living paycheck to paycheck and I pick up a second job so that I would be able to set money aside for a rainy day, so much for my plan. Which things like this always seem to happen to me. I can't ever seem to catch a break. This always happens to me. If it isn't one bad thing that happens to me it sure is another. I don't know how much more I can take. All my life I have had so many terrible things happen to me and I keep trying to make it through the tough times, but every time I do, I am slammed back into another tough spot. I really hope that I get my money like I was told I would for the 3rd time now.
Thank god I have some really great friends who help me keep my sanity, and I am so thankful that I have all of them as my friends. Especially my friend Christie. She is a Super Trooper and I love her for the support she has given me in my time of need. I hope to be able to return the favor one day. I really hope that she knows just how much I appreciate all that she has done for me, I make sure to tell her but I hope she know who sincere I am. At least my life is blessed with great friends who are like angels sent from heaven watching over me and making sure that I don't do any thing stupid. If you know what I mean. Without them I would be lost. To all my Friends especially Christie I want to thank you so much. I love you guys. :)
Until next time have a great day.
