The start of a new life....commenced TODAY

Love his eyes!!! Beautiful blue eyes....always had a weakness for men w/ blue eyes!

Well, after so many false starts, something finally happened that was positive. Mom begun her job today. Her boss offered me a job as well - but, I cannot take it due to my body being out of"whack". Mom works M-F and some Saturday's. Plus, in addition to all of this--she can use the car {pending on the boss's discretion}
Today, I spent at home...tomorrow, I have to go to the store for a couple of grocery items. I believe next Thursday she wants me to come in to help out. So, that will a nice change. I am trying to get used to this change.
We made out a list of things we need to get... alot of things we need {that happens when you loose everything !!}. so, like I have done every other time - I'll loosely list those things. This coming weekend we both are going to Kroger to start stocking up on food...always a great thing!

So...... the list begins.....
-alot of domestic items!!!
-a 2nd cell phone {for mom's job}
-Adele CD
-microwavable plates
-digital camera
-mouse pad
-Yankee candle {tarts, and tealights}
-Bath and Body Works SALE!!!
-Vicky's Secret Dream Angels parfum/mist's
-clothing for myself and Mom
-shoes for Mom
-new tennis for myself
-earrings

So, with being paid weekly things will be much better. We both spent close to a $1,000.00 for a new laptop. All because our "jackass" friends {if u can call them that} pawned mine last one. But, things will begin to turn anew leaf, so to speak. I suppose all of the above mentioned will not take place right away--but soon.

A new dawn.......... and I can finally go to chiropractor--the adjustment will hurt!
**the items in red have been purchased!

News {and its good}

Life has changed again {no, I haven't met Mr. Mandylor--that would be LIFE ALTERING}. Mom has been offered a driving job--something similar to what she had in Oct 2009--but this time pay comes with it! Whoo Hoo.... So, with that comes alot of changes. Many things need to be listed out on real paper, things purchased, and errands done. My household lists is going to redone. Just think all of this came out of an solar eclipse---they always make things pop in your life! ALWAYS.......

For now, my domestic bliss--only if he was in the domesticity with me!

Update is here

So, finally, I am giving an update! I have been running here and there--it seems mad at the moment!! I have not begun working yet....but, it seems like one already. Insane the running around Kingwood/Atascocita/Humble---never have I ran so much. We went to the store last Tuesday and have only cooked 4-5 times complete meals....there were actually leftovers that we were eating. We have to pick up the photo guy between 5 and 6/6:30 in the evening and that doesn't give too much time to cook, does it?

Last Friday we had a shoot in the Galleria--so, Mom and I waited until we got down there to go and eat because there is no Boston Market where we live!

I was going to go to the Worksource--but I opted against it--can they really do the work I have already done? {websites, pro blog, youtube, ectera} I really don't think so. I was also going to apply for a position at The Little Gym of Kingwood--but the woman at the front desk acted as if she could not be bothered to answer a question. So, I decided right there not to fill out the application. An employee's attitude says alot. It says that I don't want to work there!

So...........that's the jobs! Oh, and Bath and Body works have not called me and are NOT going to. call it intuition....just a feeling that's it's not going to work. I really hate having such a strong 6th sense--but what can you do.

I do feel positive about the photographer--I don't know why, but I have not begun working {long story and personal as well}. But, Tuesday I was cleaning the studio {waiting/reception and office} and I'll clean the back--the actual studio section} Fun, fun....

The beau...whatever.....no word at all. This is what happens---I hear from him {usually after I email him} and we converse for about 2 weeks--then its all quiet again. I have went one whole month and nothing. The last time I spoke to him was October 24th! I am seriously thinking about not contacting him for anything--nothing at all. I have news to tell him--but I really feel he doesn't care. Oh well..... Ever since his spat at me in July, I really dont have the same feelings as I once did for him. Something extraordianry happen within a week of his blowup at me that completely made me not think of him and wouldn't really care if it were over. This is how strong this interaction was! A karma thing--and one that you cannot shake. He was my moment of zen---and that day was so unqiue and uplifting {the best day of my life}!

The 2nd best thing was getting my 14K---and I used that not for myself -- but to give to others when I did not have to. Funny, nothing worked out during that time in August and it brought me to where I am today--but, everyone around me is experiencing turmoil and I am not {and I have never been re-paid my loan and do need it to make the rent for two monthes}.

So, I have not had things go to my liking I got two things that I did not ask for---well, actually three. 14K..... a car..... and a "replacement".

Last week's recap

Okay......alot has happened!! I been having to update for about a week...and haven't really had the chance. So, here's goes the recap.......

~finally, mom got the offer to drive {after a couple of snags--but all is well now!!}
~met one of the KW people in person--he was nice and gave us a "present" and we had pizza that night and Chinese food the next
~we both met the man who mom is driving for---a medical condition......well, its true. Long story short, he has a boot and is on crutches -- meaning cannot drive. And he's a photographer!
~I got a job offer from the pictures guy. I went to the ladies room and he asked if anyone was looking for a job----talk about a job falling into my lap LITERALLY!!!! So, I did accept the offer and begin this coming Tuesday.
~put an ap in at Bath and Body Works {b/c I want to!!!!}
Today we get to take the photo guy to a photo shoot---very different and new.

So, I have to get out my business clothes and do a little shopping for a couple of new biz outfits + dress shoes. I am also going to see This is It on Saturday--a day that is our own {well, besides Monday}. Also, will have to buy lunch and of course groceries.
And.....today is the 9th annivesary of my father's passing.

{oh......I guess I have a new or secondary career}

Almost the goodie holiday!

So, here's a costumed treat for you.....
and you thought it was going to be me---
fooled ya!!

More to report on later.....

Tomorrow, I have to get up at 6 in the morn! The driving job panned out after all....

Just watched a movie + a "relevation"

Today was interesting---had rehearsal, took a shower in Twisted Peppermint, cut hair {nice and short and managable}, watched Twilight {finally--after the all of the hoopla died down}, had dinner {bowtie pasta + fried chicken w/ four cheese alfredo sauce and Calif style veggies}. Am waiting for a movie to come on around 1AM -- can't get it On Demand.

Going back to Twilight---I read a blog "breaking down the book"....after I read it I said OUTLOUD --- What an idiot! Good lord. It takes all types of people to make up the world and a small percentage that I am witnessing/witnessed is really stupid. Really makes you wonder where the brains are located! But the breakdown really had a look on my face--are you serious? You wasted a chunk of time on a blog posting for this! Oh well......evidently no common sense {yes, moves across the country with hardly no financial resources---guess she didn't think he ecomony would go to hell in a hand basket.} Loser of the month!

Well, in other smart, grownup news........
Mom did get a job as a driver----in a Lincoln Cont'l..... Need I say more?? A nice car that she's not accountable for the gas/maintence. {When good things happen to good people} I rode in a Lincoln years ago--nice car! I might just look for a "holiday" job----would like to work at Bath and Body Works.

No other news to tell---boyfriend is doing better--I swear he has something up his sleeve---a surprise.

Just a note----I still live in the same place as I did in April 2008--had not had to move. The next move would be in a partnership {I'll just leave you hanging---think about it}.

Happenings {!!}

Well, here I write! I have been so busy. Still haven't bought anything for myself. I am listening my playlist on this blogger--Bedroom toys! you know what Simon was thinking about when he wrote it--bedroom toys....hmmm.... a Scorpio!! But, it's catchy!!

Busy bee have I been.......meeting this person, going here, paying this, eating here. Get some sleep...get up and repeat. What a life, huh? I figured I have been on a LONG A** vacation--so now, it's time to work. Ha Ha. My aunt is in the hospital---she fractured her shoulder---ouch. She's out of commision for at least 6 months--and Christmas is coming---oh hell!

So, we are waiting for the liscensce to arrive from Austin. The Crown Vic is in the shop---having more work that should have been done before! We talked business yesterday with a neighbor who is actually going to be helping us! Exciting!
I had a job interview this past Friday and was hired then she reniged and did not b/c my choreo did not depict classical ballet---hello--choreo!!!! Oh well, my gain at another place....I have another interview. And, the "new studio" where I supposed to work---well, I told them I was leaving! She did not know when the studio was opening, no enrollment....just a huge mess.
Well, my classes {Dancer...} begin this Wednesday.

I have pics from the road trip to up north!

Enjoyed my ballroom--but the manager was trying to gauge me on the price and tomorrow is my last class. If you'd tell me the truth and not lie you would have a succesful business and I would not leave....but, oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles. But, I hate it b/c my teacher is Latin and cute and just so sweet!!!

My beau {ex--I dunno what he is anymore} sent me an email by and invite {u know like facebook has invited u....} to RDC's and my personal email. I guess he is trying to say "I messed up." I am like "really?!" Well...men, what do you say??!!

Recieved my balance of $$ and this is the recap {QUICK}

Okay....I am going to go real quick--so keep up! That's all I can say.

-I got the car--bought+paid for--that's nice...no notes!!!
-I got my ballroom class sceduled for this coming Monday---real nice instructer--he has an accent--his name is Antonio!
-Have not heard from my new "job"
-Will be starting DE classes in two weeks {mine other biz]
-Already running the company---signing paperwork with LaKiaya tomorrow
-Submited fees for MISA to operate legally---close to $3,000.00 + the new car.
-Doing alot website work, printing, advertising via Blogger/Myspace {whew! where's an assistant when you need one??}
WHAT ELSE??
I have not bought any groceries in 3 weeks---eating out everyday and leftovers for the night time. Also, have not bought me anything remotely fun, well, except for ---
candles, 4 tee's, face care {whoo hoo}, 8 CD's, printer {for biz purpose--of course}, and office supplies!
Hopefully, after next wek's MISa meeting and RDC's meeting I CAN and buy some new clothes--I will need biz clothes for working in the office!!!

And...........this Sunday, I am going up to Cleland, Livingston, Lufkin, and a little farther north. I am bringing the camera this time. {In 2007, when we had a lump sum $$$ we went on a rad trip and no camera--but had plenty of $$$$. Any sense to you? Me neither!}

A real post is forthcoming.....

With so much to do, I am trying to keep up to date--running two biz's {well, one will be operational in about a week and a half}. So, while I update stuff, enjoy........

Dr. Taylor~~~doing his thing!!

***Oh! I updated the website with adding a page titled Falling Down---which is appropiate for Tidbits***

In two weeks I'll be in the money

Well, I am sure you have read the previous blog about me getting the rest of the balance from house mortgage. Here's what I am going to do with it!!!
-new office chair
-JAG Season 5/6
-Star Trek: Voyager {last season}
-new business clothes
-2-3 pairs of shoes
-printer/scanner/copier
-second cell phone {upgrade mine and use the old one for the biz}
-movie theatre's to watch movies
-candles {'ll order from my mom}
-shelf system {fingers crossed}
-reams of printer paper!!!!!

Now.......this is after I pay the fees for MISA and get a vehicle. Of course, I could get the $$$ earlier depending on when she gets it. I am getting the hell out of here with this noisy ass neighbors {if they are not moving soon--I am switching apartments--no joke}!!!!!! Then to eat out and shop for two weeks straight--somewhere, in all of that I have to go to the studio to prepare choreography.

HAPPY HAPPY, JOY JOY!!!

Great, great news!!! {HAPPY HAPPY, JOY JOY}

This morn I recieved news that I will be recieving the remainder of the balance for my mortgage in August or before!!! It is a drop in the bucket -- but a couple of thousand will really help {say estimated $14,000.00 give or take}.

WOW! And I was wondering what was going to happen and my friend who has a 6th sense said around Aug/Sept and October things will pick up and improve.
{SIDENOTE--Just sitting here listening to my stereo - All Right Now --- a little portable for teaching here on the property}

Plus, my mom has just begun selling candles and she has a party next Wed. So, guess who gets to clean?? And, I got to begin planning classes for DE for the Fall.

The first "pricetag"---a vehicle - would like a Dodge Dakota....but we'll see!!

Now.....We Will Rock You is playing----great voice---real artist w/ a great band!!

And........like the song says --

'we are the champions, my friend we'll keep on fighting til the end; we are the champions, we are the champions, no time for losers cause we are the champions of the world'

just a little quote to amuse myself with from all of the un-self inflicted pains that I have endured.

MISA, Sunday's outing, and other "stuff"

The weekend is over and done with.... FINALLY!!!!! Whew! Friday morning we had a call for a meeting that we attended that night and it was successful. The company's licsense, late fees, insurance, and Crown Vic are all going to be paid/bought this week. Our new employee is going up towards Corsicana to by supplies and is going to look at some Ford Crown vics...and as he says it-- "look at the cars, drop a check, and have my neice drive it back!" He moves like last month.

So, we will have a business!! But it won't be the same!

Today's outing was eventful.....
We ate at Fu's Garden {chinese}, and had a McFlurry later on, drove out to Jersey Village, and just browsed. Later, watched L&O:CI--very good eppy!! We watched Valkyerie {oops! spelling}--very, very good movie. I would recommend it to all who are movie buffs.



And............in keeping with tradition.....

Only the sexiest man alive in the the UK....yes, he's English!

Zen....continuation

We will be looking at a Chevy Lumina today--well in about and hour and half. The man selling already knows how much can be afforded per month {I could pay for all of it--but would need $$ to replenish what goes out, you know?} Don't spend what is not in your hand, yet...in other words.
It is really in our court--if we want it or not...so that is the best thing that has happened yet. I am sure everyone remembers the Losers of March {if not just read for March & you will understand}.
So, hopefully, we can aquire this car--according to the upkeep of the vehicle.
If the answer is positive then------I WILL not be home alot. What is that like? I tell you being without and all of a sudden you have---going here and there, I am exhausted!!

NOTE: Chevy Lumina's used to be police cars {I think---cringe!}

Also.....found a Ford Crown Vic--it had seen better days....looked like it was a shipwrecked vessel!
