Today is a good day. It�s nice out and the sun is shining. The dreary weather we had in December makes me appreciate the beautiful days like today.
I am so excited. Today, I�m going to Changes Salon and getting my hair highlighted and cut. Jackie also has an appointment. My stylist moved from Scandals Salon to Changes. Her name is Christine and she�s a sweetheart.
I followed her because she�s the first decent stylist I�ve had since Florida. She�s young but very professional, but also very warm and engaging. She�ll tell me if a hairstyle won�t flatter me, but she won�t do her own thing either.
For some silly reason, whenever I find a hairstyle I like, it�s on Jessica Alba. You know, if I ever turn lesbian, I will join dragprincess in wishing Jessica or better, Mariska Hargitay (Law and Order, SVU) would be my wife.
He he.
Also, thinking I will not turn Les anytime soon, I think George Clooney should be my next husband. Yowza!
I haven�t been able to go to the Salon since the summer because in the early fall, my ex started having money problems and I couldn�t depend on the child support. So the money I�d normally spent on Jackie�s daycare and stuff came out of my money. By the time I�d get his cash, I�d be in the hole or be paying late fees on my bills.
It really sucked.
I still owe Lisa but I�m almost caught up on my utilitys and car payment. I�m going to work on getting Lisa paid off. I have no idea what I owe but I figure I�m going to keep giving her money until she says that I�m paid off.
I can pay both utilities off next payday. The car payment isn�t really the car payment, it�s the taxes on the car. Each payday I pay $45- $50 over so I can pay down the taxes.
I think December is a sucky time for taxes to come due. As if we�re all not broke enough by Christmas.
Anyway, I�m really excited about getting my hair done.
I want to surprise Jackie and take her to see the new Harry Potter movie. She�s dying to see it. I�m going to wait until the child support arrives this week and then we are most certainly going. I talked to my ex on Friday and he said he was sending it out to me, so I figure it�ll be here today.
Jackie also needs a new pair of shoes. Man, she is hard on shoes! I also need some bras (I know, TMI) and new pants. I know I can�t possibly fit all of that into the budget but I will do as much as I can.
Also, I must find a new pair of slippers. I wear my slippers everywhere and not only are they falling apart but they literally smell like feet. Yuck. But they are so comfortable!
I had to cancel my therapy appointment this week. Jackie fell ill with the flu over the weekend and I had to take the day off on Monday. I usually go to the therapy appointment on my lunch hour but since I took leave on Monday, I really have no time off to take today.
I am a little upset that I had to the cancel my appointment, but I had a sick kid Monday, and my hands are tied.
I got a little surprise this week. My doctor�s office called Monday and said that they would not refill anymore prescriptions until I come in for a visit. I am irritated because I was just there in October. I mean, really!
So, I have a visit scheduled for Friday at 4:15 p.m. I suspect I may be getting pneumonia, so that is an issue. But also, I�m going to talk to my doctor about Straterra for my attention span problems. Like I need another drug to add to my cocktail. But it�s like, I cannot get anything done because I am so easily distracted.
Something needs to change.
Tom Cruise is a moron. I certainly wouldn�t be able to make it without the medications I�m on. They smooth out the rough edges and take away the rage and depression. For a person who�s been traumatized, sometimes medication is the only thing that works.
Poor Katie Holmes. I don�t think she knows what she�s getting herself into.
