just a quick update… kia is doing okay.. but the chemo made him sick yesterday… so i spent most of the night up making sure he was okay… so not much sleep on my part.. no big deal though, because i slept off & on until 10 this morning. chai had a friend stay over and they didn’t get up until 10, so it really worked out for me .. thankfully..

i have an ear infection… ick.. it itches… badly.. i’m on two dfferent antibotics, one oral and one ear drops… the doc said i have a cross between swimmers ear and staph infection in my ear.. how in the world do you get staph infection in the ear.. well easier than i thought.. just by scratching the ear canal..even with your finger (or ne thing else for that matter) can tear open the skin and staph can develop.. so leason learned… keep things outta the ear even if it itches… and believe me, i so want to scratch it right now… it sucks… it itches so bad.. but it’s good cause that means the antibotic is working… plus i don’t scream if my ear touches anything… my pillow was hurting it before i went to the doc

we have a month before school starts up for chai… i’m so ready for her to go back… i know that sounds horrible.. but she is bored.. and no matter what i do with her… she is still bored and whines about it.. we’ve had a zoo trip, we’ve had a trip to coco key waterpark, not to mention all the parades she has done (and will do) and trips to the pool, and friends staying over..and art stuff.. and it’s never enough… i don’t remember being that bored and ungrateful when i was her age… i mean we got home from coco keys and she said "when are we going to kings island" is it just that she is overly spoiled?

school is officially on hold… until i can pay off the amount that i owe… well i am taking one class next semester, just so it won’t start my 6 months between school and begining to pay on my loans.. i’m hoping that by the time january comes around, i’ll be able to take another class because i’ll be working… and then i won’t have to put off finishing my degree.. just taking a bit longer since i’ll be paying for it myself… then by the time i’m finished with school… i should be able to financially afford my loan payments… my goal next year is to start paying on my interest… just so i can get it out of the way.. but we’ll see how all this works out after the job starts..

jess called, she’s going to have me start the cda classes… she’s almost finished with hers… so the sooner i get started, the sooner i’ll be ready to work once she gets the type A certification… so things are looking up.. for now at least on the job issue… i should be settling into the job in a month or so… and then it will be smooth sailing (or at least in that area of my life it will be)…

okay well i’m outta here for now…have a few things to get done before mom gets home… plus i need a shower… and i have to get the girls dressed and ready to go to ally’s house…

more later
