Wow...didn't see this one coming...

Ron called this morning. He got let go from his job this past Friday. Lack of work due to the economic crunch felt by many. This would be the down side to working for a small business. He managed the pawn shop for almost 7 years. Now, too many people pawning, not enough people buying equals not enough money to pay employees.

My downside on this is the child support I will not be receiving. Selfish, yes. But also practical on my living paycheck to paycheck self.

Any one got a job they want to give a hard working, dedicated and determined guy? I know one that is looking....

Thank goodness I have a job to come to everyday.

Should I change the name of the blog to Kathy Monthly???

Probably....

Well, it's been a month.

In that month, Kamry got better and I got sick. Between the 2 of us, I missed 6 days of work. That went over like a dead balloon at the workplace.

In that month, the kids got their report cards. 1 pretty good, 1 decent, and 1...well...not decent. But things are looking up and I have high hopes for the coming semester.

In that month, Hunter has turned into a big boy, and I haven't seen him. I got sick a couple of days after our last visit, which was the weekend before Halloween. 3 weeks!! Babies change a lot in three weeks. I miss the lil man.

In that month, I have decided exactly how much I hate Philosophy. Well, the class anyway. I just wanna be done with it. I don't know if I will even pass, and what's more, I don't care. That is rare for me. I pride myself on my 3.5 GPA. That may nose dive if I don't pass this. I will just have to pull it out...

Well, that's it for now. I will try to do better. I make no promises.

Peace, love, and hope...ME

This week

This week I have worked one day.

This week Kamry was sick.

This week, I got a new front door, a new back door, new shower fixtures, a new shower wall, and hopefully soon, a new roof. I am very happy with the improvements and can't wait to see the final outcome will be.

Next week, I go back to work.

Next week, Kamry gets another week off. This time its for fall break.

Taking life one week at a time. Enjoying being able to bond with my child again. There are worse things. I just wish she wasn't sick during our bonding. She's getting so mature at times, and just like me, can be really immature at the drop of a hat. I guess she's more like me than I really ever thought.

We are heading to Harriman tomorrow to hang out with Carol and the kids.

Sunday we're headed to a baby shower for a good friend of mine. The baby is two months old. But they live in Mississippi while her family lives here. This is the first time they are coming here since the baby. Her mom is throwing the shower for her Knoxville family and friends. I am excited to see her. It's been two years.

So needless to say, I am not complaining. I am glad that I can take the time to do things that make me happy and allow me time to spend with my girl.

Josh is off camping with a friend of his this weekend. We will see him on Sunday.

Joseph is going to homecoming and then has a men of tomorrow meeting tomorrow.

Is it possible that my boys are too big to bond with and we are what we are? I hope not. They just have other things they would rather be doing than hangin with mom. I think I'm actually okay with that. Is that ok?

Well, Kamry wants to get on her webkinz so I am gonna go log her on.

I will post again later. Hopefully not a month from now.

Peace, love, and antibiotics....ME
