Body for LIFE Tracker Forums: <b> Best of Michael Jackson</b>

Michael Jackson dies! :(-

I am so saddened by the death of Michael Jackson. I can remember as a teenager I use to get into arguments with my dad over my room and how he couldn't see what color the walls were anymore because I literally had every Michael Jackson poster there was hanging on my walls. I still have his "Beat It" tank top from when I was a teen and you know it is hanging on the side of a shelf in my bedroom. What a musical Icon and I am sure a lot of singers and musicians would not be where they are today without Michael paving the way. May he rest in peace.

I PASSED MY PRAXIS EXAM!

YES YES YES! One more test and I will be allowed to teach in the State of North Carolina next year! Talking about one heck of a pay raise! YES YES YES! I am excited and nervous! One down, two to go. Still waiting on the scores from the AEPA exam that I took in Alanta, Georgia. Why oh why do they put us through this much stuff just to teach.....

Now this is a Crystal Palace!

This creek runs behind my house! Talking about a winter wonderland! So beautiful!

2nd time around..Winter Wonder Land, 2 Mar 09

My new Baby!

This is my new baby! Her name is Skyler! I just love this dog. Passive, gentle but HUGE! She is so much fun especially when she is chasing the little dog, Harley!

My Little "Big" man playing in the snow!

Here is my little man playing in the snow!

First winter storm of 2008!

Our first snow in Asheboro, NC 2008!

I measured 3 inches of snow in my front yard
isn't it just beautiful. Only bad thing is that I won't get paid today if I don't go to work! Oh well, can"t win them all!

DEATH to my GEORGE FOREMAN GRILL!

Man oh Man! My grill has DIED! I am so broke from the holidays I can see straight and can't buy another one until end of February! I can't believe it.. I am preparing to start a NEW challenge and it BREAKS! OMG! NO WAY! :)-

I must ask for prayers for my grill! It has been a good one and definetly faithful!

Preparing for the Holidays

Well I am hoping that I have finally found someone to watch my son over the long holiday period! This will also be my only time for a "break" and if I can't find someone to help me, I am sure going to be suicidal even before I go back to work. She has met Cameron and is willing to work with him so I am hoping she doesn't back out on the first bad day he has. Lets cross our fingers and say a little prayer that she is patient with him!

The Status on the College Life!

Well I made another "A" in my last class however, my college pursuit is officially ON HOLD. I have to pass my PRAXIS EXAM before I can move on to the next class and that is holding up my money! I missed Reading and Writing by 1 point! Yup! I said it, one lousy point and I can't believe it so I have to work on that this and next week. My test is broken up into two different times so I can concentrate on them one at a time. The first is reading and I think I have a better chance at passing that and have time to work on my writing. OH well! I made just enough money to pay my bills this month so that is refreshing! :)-

Cameron's Kindergarten Picture

Just look at my baby! Look how much he has grown! He is so big! He is doing well in school. Doing much better writing his name and pronouncing the ending of his words. So PROUD!

Happy Birthday to me! 41! YUCK!

Kind of bummed out I am missing all of my pals in Tennessee but something terrific happened this morning. For those that have normal children,,,count your blessings but sometimes having a child with special needs makes for some good entertainment at times! Well here is one for the books! My son, cameron is still potty training and he is now 6. OMG is right. Well I was drinking some of my morning liquid courage and I see him in corner of my eyes just standing in middle of his TV room. I ask him, do you need to go POTTY? He did say anything, usually he YELLS NO NO! But he walked towards the garage and the Bathroom is right there.. So I kind of followed him around the corner and he darted into the bathroom. He has the tendency to take the lid off and play in the water, so I opened the door and asked him if he needed any help and he stood up off the potty and his pull-up was on the floor, and with authority he said, NO! and shut the door in my face! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM! :D

JOB is CHALLENGING, CAMERON is GROWING and

SCHOOL is DEMANDING! I am tired all the time and just can't get back into my fitness. I WANT TOO! Real Bad! I have a big test this Friday! PLEASE PRAY I PASS! I must pass to continue on in my program but I have not had time to really study because I have been sick the last two weeks, stressed out over money and stressed out over daycare for my son! And now my classroom is moving over to Guy B. Teachey where my son goes to school and I am sure that will cause some problems! I am just hoping he does not have major problems with seeing me.

It is NEVER gonna stop is it?

When will it stop? When will I find the right people to work with my son? People that won't QUIT just because he throws fits. Heck, he tries to hit me everyday, but I HAVE TO HANDLE IT! See that is the problem now isn't it? It doesn't matter because it is just mom, mom HAS TO TAKE IT... so we won't worry about MOM! But in the mean time I have to handle a full work load, full class load and handle Cameron daily. Sometimes I truly feel I was dealt a pissy hand in life!

Cameron's Birthday Party!!!

BIRTHDAY PARTY was a BLAST! Yes It was a GREAT DAY but I am beat and coming down with something. My sinuses are terrible and I have so much pressure on my face! At least my nose is draining now and not all stopped up.. He got his trampoline and his new scooter. He also got a Buzzlightyear remote control car and alot of clothes! He had fun until he had a major meltdown.
We were missing a few people that did not show up and I am surprised at a couple of them. not even calling! But hey... Cameron's dad was here and so was my boyfriend and my mom so it was a good turnout and a lot of pizza to eat! I will be eating pizza forever! and CAKE!
I am not feeling too well right now but I have to rest today and hopefully I will feel better tomorrow!

Update Time!

Yes I know it has been awhile but working has REALLY thrown a wrench in my schedule! No time for gym in the morning so I will have to find time after work to fit it in and I need to. Getting fatter every minute! It has been hard, trying to find a daycare for Cameron. I have had him rejected once and he is on thin ice with the second one. Just don't know what to do with this child. Hopefully God will have the answer soon. I have ran out. My next class starts on 23 Sept so I get a little break and will be working with a tutor tomorrow for some math overview. Hopefully Cameron's schedule will fall into place soon, poor little guy doesn't know what is going on! BUT he TURNS 6 on SATURDAY! My baby is 6, I can't believe it! We are having a party and my boyfriend and my mom will be there, as well as his Dad! Yes, I said his dad.... I am glad he can come and see him. We also have about 5 families coming so lets PRAY for no rain but they are calling for it and that means indoor party! OMG! Well here we go!

I GOT THE JOB!

About Darn TIME! I've got the job! I was hired yesterday as a Teacher Assistant at Lindley Park Elementary School. The school is about 2 miles away from my house and the best part is that I am the assistant in the Special Education Classroom! YEAH ME! I can't wait! Yeah, it will be tough with me going to school and raising cameron, but we NEED THE MONEY! WHAAAHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Women! Don't put it off, get your mammograms!

Christina Applegate treated for breast cancer

LOS ANGELES - Christina Applegate is undergoing treatment for breast cancer, but the disease was caught early and the actress is expected to fully recover, her publicist said.

The Emmy winner's cancer was detected through an MRI ordered by a doctor and is not life-threatening, publicist Ame Van Iden said in a statement Saturday.

Well I don't know about you, but everyday you hear of healthy and beautiful women getting breast cancer, so it is important to get checked once a year! Pitty, if you knew you could have prevented it by getting screened! Just do it! Because why? Because I GET TO!

Update on Cameron

Well he is still in Summer School but his Medicaid got APPROVED for another year! YEAH US! Wheeeew! I was so WORRIED about that. I have my application in for subsititute teacher and Teacher's Aide in for 3 or 4 schools so hopefully one of them will pick me up. I am really interested in the one at Guy B Teachey elementary school because my son goes to that school and we won't have to worry about him getting home and meeting the state people since they are always late! Keep your fingers crossed for me that the principal calls me. I am praying for that job. Oh yeah, I have decided just to date as many guys as I can until I meet the right one. I am ready to find the right one, so wish me luck!
