I'm feeling a little productive--even though I've only done about 2 productive things thus far today--and it's 7 p.m. Maybe I'll get more of my to-do list done before bed tonight. :)

Well, you're more productive than I (even though that isn't saying much::eek::)! I'm sure you'll find time to finish that to-do list. Good job on being productive:)!

Good that you feel something positive, good for you.
I didn't even notice it was 7 until you said something. lol,
I haven't been very productive today. I need a foot.

I feel unsafe.
Before the apartment trashing, I was feeling very sad.
Still am; but panic is setting in and taking over moreso than sadness.

I wish I could get you out of there somehow. I hate your situation.

If I was rich I would buy you a ticket for you and your family to move to Australia so you could be safe.

Tired and crappy. Just got back from my course.... well, actually I've been home for an hour, but needed to veg out a bit and eat and then talked with my brother for a bit since I haven't seen him much the last 4 days.

It was an incredibly boring 5 hours. Thankfully we got three 10 min. breaks, which during then I mostly just read, only getting up once to walk around to stretch my legs while some random guy kept looking at me, probably wondering what the heck I was doing just wandering the hallway by myself.

My instructor was very ignorant though. He was very sarcastic, like cynically sarcastic. Don't get me wrong, sarcasm doesn't usually bother me (as it comes 2nd nature to me anyway :p), but how he was certainly did. Seemed like every single sentence or statement he said sounded sarcastic, and nearly everything seemed cynical in some way. Before he even started the lecture he said he'd call on random people and didn't want an "I don't know" answer. Sounds like a wonderful start right? :rolleyes: He called on me three times. The first two times weren't so bad. Scary, yes, but I got the questions right, which always somewhat eases my anxiety. The third one I managed to get wrong, and with this he just gave me this "Oh my god you're stupid" look. It's bad enough I beat myself up over mistakes (always, doesn't matter the mistake), but that look just killed me.

Didn't stop there though. Then soon after he uses me as an example for a body/size comparison demonstration (discussing alcohol). Usually I'm not self-conscious of my height nor body. Most of the time I'm okay with it... Until you start pointing it all out for everyone to stare at me. THAT is when I get extremely self-conscious and even more anxious. I get it. I've been told a million times -- I'm small, really small. I have the body of a 14 year old and look like I'm 12. Girls that age are usually taller than me. Everyone can stop pointing it out now and stop staring. :mad:

So yeah, I've been pretty depressed the rest of the night because of that. Stupid I know. Sorry for the rant. At least it's over. One step closer to getting my license. Now let's hope I can pull myself together within a year, or I hope much sooner, to get it.

I'm a little confused. I cannot get my sleeping pattern figured out. When I go to bed, my mind will not shut up. I'm also having headaches more often. I don't know if it is my allergies or what. My memory is getting a bit fuzzy as well. I can't remember if certain things actually happened or if I imagined them or dreamt them or what. I've tried putting a pad and pen by my bed so I can write down what I dream about, but it seems like nothing weird ever happens when I do that.

Also, Firefox says "dreamt" is not a word. I disagree.
^ Have you tried cutting caffeine and sugar? Maybe drinking some tea before bed will help ease your mind, especially either green tea or chamomile.

Wow, he sounds like an intimidating...."hmm mmm". No, it's not a stupid rant! Don't be sorry. I know it does not bother me, let it all out. Sorry I hope you do well in that class despite your teacher.

He seems so annoying. Its not a stupid rant Phoenixx, I'd be really pissed off too. I hope you get your license soon.

^ Yeah, he was pretty intimidating and annoying. Thankfully that was it though, just those 5 hours. Now if I get myself pulled together and get my license within the year, I won't have to take it again. The course only lasts one year. If you don't get your license after that one year, you have to do it all over again, which is a pain. I don't want, nor need to, pay another $45 to listen to the same lecture over again, with most of the material I already knew.

I feel really crappy right now. My bf is still being wishy-washy about whether or not he can watch my son this week. Sometimes, I hate being a parent because of the inconvenience. I love my son, but if I'm going to work or go to school, apparently I have to inconvenience somebody else or have a bunch of money to pay for child care (I literally have no money because I paid for daycare all last week).
If he doesn't watch my son, my manager and assistant manager will have to cover my shifts or borrow management from another store. It makes me look really unreliable, which I hate. Also, I was going to go to summer school and my class starts this Wednesday. If I can't find a babysitter, I'm going to miss class.
My boyfriend has helped me out a lot, and I appreciate all that he's done for me, but this is all just really bad timing...

Thanks, but that probably won't happen. Four of the five people I asked are unavailable, and I never heard back from the fifth. One of the two other people I'd be likely to ask is having a baby Friday, so I'm not going to add to her stress and the other is one of the people who may have to cover my shift. I am now in a supervisor position, and the only reason I was able to accept the job was because my boyfriend was available to watch my son. When I was with my ex and shortly thereafter, I could only work about 12 hours a week because of lack of child care and his unwillingness to help

Oh that truly sucks, I'm sorry.

Its good that you don't have to deal with him again. Good luck with your course. :)

Anything to get you in a better position, sometimes we bite the bullet that we don't want to bite. I really do hope you find a solution.

I didn't get a chance to see Job Corps today, I have to go tomorrow hopefully.. I took some stuff to a pawn shop, but the arsehole refused to buy ANYTHING! I tried lowering the price several times and now I'm practically giving the items away, I need any dollar I can get, but nobody seems like they are interested in buying.. I went to the animal shelter today and saw the dogs the facist local government stole from us.. Poor little guys.. It saddens me to think they are going to be killed by them soon. Oh, the caved in roof finally killed the electricity in part of the house, I dread the thought that we are returning to a state of being that I thought I would never see again.. Once the power goes, the water and plumbing go as well.. It's always a matter of time..
