I dont use anything about 3 on her. Oh well

I might as well get paid for it...


So what do I want to do? Im not sure, but it would be spiffy to do what I LIKE to do and be paid for it. I like a lot of things, but I think if I were to get paid for them and it be a job they might loose their fun-ness and it become more like work. So maybe something Im good at and can do easily and just have hobbies. Okay, what am I good at? Well, lol, making plans, organizing things, and telling people what to do based on their skill and the needs of the task. But unless Kim wins the lottery and I can be her life-coach then Im stuck finding a real job.

Okay so Im taking PD 115, which is designed to help us figure out who we are and what we want to do with our lives. I had to take a personality test, this is hysterical, I could have saved myself the test and just skiped to the end, but here I am:

Extraverted iNtuitive Thinking Judging


"I don't care to sit by the window on an airplane. If I can't control it, why look?"

ENTJs have a natural tendency to marshall and direct. This may be expressed with the charm and finesse of a world leader or with the insensitivity of a cult leader. The ENTJ requires little encouragement to make a plan. One ENTJ put it this way... "I make these little plans that really don't have any importance to anyone else, and then feel compelled to carry them out." While "compelled" may not describe ENTJs as a group, nevertheless the bent to plan creatively and to make those plans reality is a common theme for NJ types.

ENTJs are often "larger than life" in describing their projects or proposals. This ability may be expressed as salesmanship, story-telling facility or stand-up comedy. In combination with the natural propensity for filibuster, our hero can make it very difficult for the customer to decline.

ENTJs are decisive. They see what needs to be done, and frequently assign roles to their fellows. Few other types can equal their ability to remain resolute in conflict, sending the valiant (and often leading the charge) into the mouth of hell. When challenged, the ENTJ may by reflex become argumentative. Alternatively (s)he may unleash an icy gaze that serves notice: the ENTJ is not one to be trifled with.

So... now to find a job for an ENTJ (me)......

Possible Career Paths for the ENTJ:

  • Corporate Executive Officer; Organization Builder
  • Entrepreneur
  • Computer Consultant
  • Lawyer
  • Judge
  • Business Administrators and Managers
  • University Professors and Administrators
BLAAAHHHHHH ... maybe Ill have to make up my own job and convice people they need me. Yeah =)

Daycare and school

So it comes down to this, I never ever wanted to put Boo in daycare, but I'm never going to be able to finish school if we don't. I take class at night so I don't need a babysitter but I have got to have some time to study and the 2hrs I'm awake at night after she goes to bed just aren't enough. So it looks like we will be putting her in daycare so she can play and learn and I can have peace and quiet and study and such.

I met with the daycare provider yesterday at a park and Kaylee really seemed to like her! We will be going Monday, since Matt has the day off work, to see the site and let Kaylee get familiar with it. I'll be dropping her off at 730am and picking her up by 530pm latest. My class is M & W 630-930pm so we decided not to do M W daycare as well so I can still spend time with her every day, so we have decided on T & Th daycare.

There also some community classes Matt and I were thinking of taking. For him a computer refresher course and for me a photography class and together we will take a cooking class and few parenting classes on discipline and potty training. The fee for these is almost nothing ($0-$15 per class) and so that's fabulous!

Okay, that's all for now.

School is in session


So school started. It seems each teacher thinks their class is so important and is the only class your taking, so they load you up on crap to do, leaving no time to do it! I put my assignments into the calendar and printed it off... I guess sleep will have to be sacrificed to maintain the schedule. And thats only 2 classes... granted they are each 4 unit classes but seriously! Then add a 1 unit 'gimmie' course on the internet and then at the end of the semester add a SOC class and I will no longer have spare time.

Must play Sims while I can!!!

Choup is made, baby is sleeping, need to take a shower, maybe there is time for the Sims??....

Semi-sweep: Misty, Kerri to play for gold


Semi-sweep: Misty, Kerri to play for gold

U.S. beach volleyball team advances to final
By the Associated Press
Posted Monday, August 18, 2008 5:37 PM ET


-Treanor and Kerri Walsh advanced to the beach volleyball final on Tuesday, beating Brazil in straight sets to earn the chance to repeat their Athens victory.

Just as she did four years ago, May-Treanor also sprinkled some of her mom's ashes on the sand before the semifinal, saving another half-portion for a similar ceremony at the gold medal game.

"You can't leave home without her," May-Treanor said, tapping the plastic film canister she used to carry Barbara May's remains. "But she'll stay here."

The Americans beat Renata Ribeiro and Talita Antunes 21-12, 21-14 for their 107th consecutive victory and the guarantee of at least a silver medal. The United States has now reached the podium in all four Olympic tournaments since beach volleyball was added to the games in 1996.

"We're not done. We are absolutely not done," Walsh said. "We came here to win."

Walsh and May-Treanor will play top-seeded Tian Jia and Wang Jie of China in the gold-medal match. Tian and Wang defeated their compatriots Xue Chen and Zhang Xi in Tuesday's second semifinal match. Playing in the longest women's beach volleyball match of the Beijing Games, Tian and Wang defeated Xue and Zhang 22-24, 29-27, 15-8.

"We know, definitely, the crowd will be with us," May-Treanor joked about playing in front of Tian and Wang's home crowd in the final.

Xue and Zhang will play Talita and Renata for third place.

"I think their destiny is the bronze," May-Treanor said, predicting a Brazilian victory. "I told them, 'I'm going to see you up on the podium,' and we'll be sitting side-by-side again."

Finished

Im so freakin pissed off right now, I am done trying to be nice and neutral with Mickayla's father (sperm donor) because of what he did today.

So Im in Mississippi right now, I put my plans on hold for 2 weeks so we could fly out here and let Mickayla visit with her family here. I left Matt, and all of my friends and family so this could happen and when I get back I start school up again so I really didnt get much of a break. Thats fine, I know they love her and miss her and so I went out again (we came out in June as well).

So Joey came Mon-Tues last week for a few hours and then had to leave sooner than planned, but whatever, it wasnt a huge deal. We tried to let him see her when we were up in Jackson where he lives but he was working late and it didnt work out. So he came last night at 9pm after work and she got to see him for 2hrs till she went to bed. He was in a fine mood, laughing and playing with her, and not being mean to me and everything was fine.

This morning he was still sleeping when we got up, and even though I tried to get her to play with him he tried to go back to sleep. He played on his computer for awhile, and his mom had to run some errands and was gone for an hour. So he holds her and they are watching a video on his laptop, but he still hasnt gotten up off the couch. The whole time Im in and out of the bedroom, livingroom, kitchen etc feeding her, playing with her and putting away toys. His mom gets home and then takes Mickayla down the block to drop something off at Aunt Linda's and comes back, they then go outside and play for a bit and then come back again. Joey still hasnt gotten off of the couch. I had shown him a letter from child support services that had come in the mail, he needed to fill out some things and he put it to the side till later. I tried to make jokes, offer him coffee, and generaly be nice, but he was grouchy and cranky all morning but talking to me at least.

Connie and I start talking about what we are doing for the day. Before I take a shower he is reading the financial papers from child support services and hes ticked off and grouchy, when I get out hes still ticked off. He starts packing up his stuff and toting it to the car and slamming around. He walks back into the livingroom and asks "why do I have to fill out those papers?" and told him we had already discussed it and didnt want to argue. We ask if he wants to come with us and he says yes and we get ready to go. He said he would follow us to where we are going, but take his own truck. We get to where we are, and hes not there.

He called his mom and said he got a phonecall from 'work' and he has to talk to a lawyer and 'wear a tie'. I think this is complete crap, as a lawer would have an appointment time and he would have been notified of it before hand, or he would have said thats what he had to do instead of saying he was going with us. Also, the only time he was alone for a phonecall was when I was in the shower and by then he was already pissed off and grouchy and its far too cooncidental for that.

He was mad because instead of paying me child support, WHEN he wants and HOW MUCH he wants and having that control over things, he will have to pay THEM when and how much they say. Hes pissed. I dont care, its not my problem!

But instead of being a grown-up and dealing with his problem, and asking questions calmy, or saying "hey you go run your errands Im going to wait here" and then calm down by the time we get back, he storms off and LEAVES HIS DAUGHTER AGAIN.....seems like a trend... he didnt even say goodbye to her....

So Im done. I am not calling him, texting him, asking his opinion about anything. Im not going out of my way for him or giving any more effort to him. I wont stop him from contacting her, but Im not going out of my way for him anymore. He doesnt want her, he doesnt get off the chair/couch when hes here to play with her, he wont make any effort to see her so why should I?

He asked if Matt wanted to adopt her, and he does, and then asked "so I would not have to pay child support then?".. thats the ONLY thing he cares about! He hasnt once asked how Im raising her, or if Matt is a good guy, or if we treat her well. He doesnt ask how we are for weeks at a time, and even when he does call its excuses and excuses.

She has a much better daddy now, who loves and adores her. So tough for him!
