Sinuses: Sponsered by Mucinex

Its 8:37 a.m. on Christmas Eve. I have chest congestion, stuffy nose, sinus headache, but thankfully my fever is back at bay(for the moment anyways)  And praise teh good Lord I was actually able to get more than an hour of sleep last night. I feel like sometimes my sinuses tak over my life.  I can try any and every drug out there, and if it works, it only works for like 3 to 4 days. Mucinex has been the drug of choice lately...and I hate it. Do you know how expensive that junk is??? good grief. not to mention, because of the certain ingredients, you have to get it from the pharmacy, and can only get a box like once a month(you are put on a time period). So, how does one, who pretty much lives in a family of 7, buy enough for the whole family?(we all use it, sometimes you would think we eat it like candy, but just like me, my family has the same sinus issues, yay us) 
....not that any of that was really important, accept for the fact that I am feeling a tiny bit better. but I still feel like poo.  Not to mention, because I didn't feel good, I did not go finish my shopping yesterday. I still have part of dads gift and some 5 dollar gifts to get. and I NEVER wait this long.... *regrettingitalready*  So I have to do that today. Thankfully Jared isn't home or he would make me stay in bed. I really hate being sick. Especially when I have to miss out on anything: get-togethers, parties, games, shopping, etc.  I hate it. What I hate more is when people don't understand that. Sometimes people assume and/or get upset, and it hurts. They say things that make you feel even worse, when you already feel pretty yucky.  You all know me, I am at times the biggest social butterfly. I like to plan events, attend different events, and I try to fit everything in with school and work and life in general. But sometimes it catches up with me. I'm human, I get sick, I get run down.  I can't help it. And I'm not going to expose anyone to what I have if I am sick, that is cruel on so many levels.  It kills me.  I remember faith's i think 3rd birthday party. She was having it at the Zooand I had made plans to go and she was so excited I was going to be there. Low and behold, I got a sinus infection, bad enough where i had to go in the doctor(which i hate).  I was crushed. She was sad too, BUT this little girl, THREE YEARS OLD, was more worried about me getting better. She had a blast at her party and told me all about it the next week at school. She missed me, but she still loved me oh so much.  Her parents were very understanding and were glad I was feeling better too. You know what's sad, I have family who doesn't even act like that. And that hurts. Especially when I see Jared having to deal with it as well, that hurts me even more. 
Its the season of giving, the season of love.  And I want people to realize that. especially the love part. Love is not hurtful words, frustration, or talking behind someones back. Love is understanding, comfort, compassion, and so much more. It hurts so much more around this time of year when people show thier frustrations instead of love. 
I just coughed up a lung... Time for more mucinex, lol.  I hope all of you have such a wonderful Christmas, that God blesses you with wonderful times of fellowship, good food, and love to surround you.  We have so much to be thankful for.  Say a prayer for me, I NEED TO FEEL BETTER! lol I have a trek out to walmart possibly in store if I can handle it, I need to bake a few more batches of fudge(which btw, i made for the 1st time this week by myself!!!)  and hope and pray that I can be well enough to make it to a Christmas Dinner tonight, I've already missed one. =[[  Remember Jared as well, He is working a shift at Ft. O until 7, and he is very tired and also not feeling his best.  Not to mention he has a lot of stress on him right now, still no full time FF job, the most recent places he has applied to did not hire him. I think a lot of it has to do with his age, hopefully that wil change come January bc he will be 21.  He is just so tired of trying so hard, tired of the stuff he deals with at his work now, and tired of drama from all aspects of his life.  I worry about him so much.  But, we are still pressing on. We both have a lot of drama going on, especially here recently, so please pray it just stops. We need a break.
btw, I apologize for not blogging in a while!!! 
Merry Christmas everyone. Love you all!

As of Lately.....

I feel like my blog is full of cobwebs.... Haven't written in a while! And trust me I have a lot to share.  Yes, I know, I am in class right now and should be intently watching these presentations that are jsut SO interesting......(not) but really, I can't focus on them. They aren't anything that I need for my finals anyway. Finals...yes.  Next week I have finals.  Ready for it to be OVER.  I have everything I need turned in for the Education program in the fall and should be hearing from them sometime during the summer. Passed the GACE ;) SO thankful for that. I was way stressed.  Really enjoying my Education classes(unless I'm sitting here doing something pointless like today).  The papers haven't been too awful either,its just been a lot, very time consuming as you can tell since I haven't wrote in a while!  The worst part has been the people.... Thre are jsut soem people that I am like... If you become a teacher.... oh my goodness....  Not onl...

Rambling

Ever had so much in your head and there is so much you want to just get out but when you finally get to you don't even know the words to say? That's my current issue. I feel overwhelmed lately bc i have so much on my mind. which of course, you know me, i worry about 99.9% of what i am thinking about which causes me to think more and worry more.... "ohhhhhhhh ohhhh sweet child of mine" -sorry, guns n' roses interrupted me. Such a good song. I've had my music playing all day. and yes for those of your wondering, i spent my whole memorial day at home, being lazy. why? bc i needed it. i needed to rest after a nonstop week! plus i was able t do some things i wanted(found my room ...again... lol, made a somewhat mental list of things to pack for Florida and what i need at the store, spent some time with my Jared, slept in!)  I was exhausted today, i woke up that way.  my weekend was fun, don't get me wrong, just very long and tiring.  Friday was pretty long, w...

Thinking....

I guess I am way over due for a blog.  I never really take the time to sit down and write one anymore.  What better time than in class..... Lol  For once we have a free period. Dr Murphy is out of town and we are suppose to be working on his presentation.  We are all more concerned with lesson plans right now(gonna be the death of me). Out of all the classes I have right now in the education program, there is one that is the absolute worst.  Not because of the subject matter(its language arts) but because of the teacher.  I have never had a teacher so unorganized, unprepared, and really having no idea what the heck they are teaching.  New professor, never taught college before, only thing he has taught is social studies for middle and high school.... seriously? I don't even know what to think anymore.  And I can't go to the Dean, bc from what I have heard he is about worthless too.  There is no talking to either of th...
