Let's start with the bad news first...I have went back to smoking - - - I know, I have already heard it all...'how could you do that' - 'what were you thinking' - ' if I were you' .... I have heard all of them so don't think you are alone. I feel awful, I wish in the back of my mind I would have never told anyone I was going to quit. Because then I would not feel like a huge failure. But anyway, it is to late now. I am going to get a grasp on my life then look at quitting again...I know, another excuse...lol.
On a better note, Isaac is doing great! I am so happy with his progress this year. He is still on the Honor Roll and way ahead of his peers speaking of education. But, we still struggle with behavior. But when have we not. I am taking the control back in my home and he is not understanding what is going on because he can not tell me what to do anymore. He will get better along with me. It is not only him that needs to change it is me also. I know that.
YEAH, we have a kitty...she was a sort of a rescue, abandoned kitty that landed in our lap one day. When we got her she was so tiny and fragile. Now she is meaty and so cute. We love her to death and have named her Squirt. Isaac chose the name for her. He is so good with her. He feeds her and cleans her litter box everyday. He is so good with her. They play together for hours. Since we are not supposed to have pets here we have had to keep her a secret though, but my one friend downstairs knows about her. I am afraid my landlord will find out and tell us to move - I would need to move, I am not giving her up...
Well, we have had Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas since I last wrote...O my I do have alot of catching up to do...Let's do it this way.
HALLOWEEN:
Isaac was a ninja and I took him to the local church for a party and trick or treating after.
THANKSGIVING:
I had to work the day before and the day after - so did not do much...
CHRISTMAS:
Went to Meemaw's house and spent the day with her and Kenny and Elaine, everyone from next door. Isaac had a blast and was very well behaved...I had a great time. I did not want to go to work the next day, but - I have to do what I have to do.
There - that was not so bad. LOL.
I had a roommate for a month or so. That will not be happening again anytime to soon. It was a disaster, but I should have seen it coming. She ended up in jail, moving out and not telling me she was leaving and I had to take her things to her when she left. So, yeah, bad idea. But she is gone and our home is calm and back to normal now, Thank God.
O MY GOD - I ALMOST FORGOT!!!
I got the promotion!!! I am an official employee of CITI now. That was due to alot of prayers from many, many people. I now have 401K, savings, insurance options. All I need to get me and Isaac back on track.
One last thing, starting the new year I have started something new also. I am NOT telling anyone. No one knows but me and Isaac and he is not telling either. After the smoking fiasco I am not letting people down again if it does not work out. But, if it does...then I will tell you all...
Love you all;
Kristine
