I really looking for a new look. I want to cut some really cute layers in to my hair so that it'll look something similar to that -------------------------------->

And Brit's cousin is going to color my hair, I am thinking of going bold.different.loud... I want to maybe dye my hair black and add purple highlights. Or maybe just going light and choose a brown and blonde combo... hmmm, idk.

Its easy as 1...2...3...

So, I am at the point that I think that Lil' J's speech has come far enough that we can now work on his preschool learning. He is pretty good at counting to 10, recognizing his shapes and colors, but we just need to keep working on his enunciation and I believe the rest will fall in to place. Today I am going to set up his learning station, we have an alphabet border, I am collecting together some workbook activities to help teach him his alphabet, numbers, colors, etc... I have confidence that he will take it well. He keeps asking about school and so I know that he has that thirst for knowledge, I just have to encourage it. T seems eager to do what ever Bubbas does, so I will tap into that as well.

My dad is also playing a great hand in this process, he reinforces what I am doing here while the kids are with him.

I'm bout to be on my 'A' game...

So I am going to get back on my Weight Watchers program, I gotta get back to me.

I am looking in to buying the P90X program and incorporating that in to my weight loss goals. I am extremely excited about this misssion :)

I am killing the school game, I have achieved a 3.69 GPA and I am workin on another A. Yay me!

I am looking for a new place, we are hoping to find a nice house with a rent to own option. So I need to buckle down on my budgeting and handle business there.

I am also going to focus on being a better, more involved mommy. I feel like I don't do enough with the kids, I'll be the first to admit that sometimes I am lazy with my parenting and that needs to stop, like yesterday.

I also want to be more involved with J, and our relationship, I need to listen more, and bitch less.

And I want to get back to focusing on taking care of myself, in addition to the weight loss goals, I want to start doing things for me, maintaining my hair and skin better, I have been slacking since I became a mommy, and that is so not me. I want to buy myself nice things (I am the shopping on a budget queen...)

While on the topic of hair and things, I need to do more to Titi's hair like I was before.

Well, those are my goals for this month, wish me luck :)

Oh. My.... Are you effin serious?!

So... I had been anxiously waiting for my school disbursement money to come in so J and I can handle so of our bills.... so finally I received the letter that my money was ready! yay! So I got it not too long ago and I had verified with my financial adviser that everything that I needed to do was done, she confirmed that everything was okay...so I bought my laptop for school, paid off my loans, and treated the family to some things since money has been kinda tight lately. No, problem right?... Ha, I get an email 2 weeks (yes, WEEKS) later stating that the money was supposed to pay for my classes and that by mistake they sent me too much and my next 3 courses are now UNpaid. So now I am expected to pay $1500 for my next 3 classes. Umm, no. I received TWO letters confirming that they were sending me the EXCESS money from what was 'left over' from my Financial Aid and Grant money. That's their bad that they didn't cover their asses, not mine because now two weeks later, the money is GONE. My family is encouraging me to fight it, my brother is talking to his lawyer to see if we have a case. I sure hope so. I really want to continue you school, and I want to, it just really peeves me that they have left such a bitter taste in my mouth.
