My Little Family

Stephen’s standing in front of me, or he was, now he’s looking over my shoulder talking about beating down people that are bigger than him. Olivia’s currently jumping on the bed with one of my shirts around her waist because she puts everything on like they are pants. Stephen goes and body slams her. We have fun, its just me, Stephen and Olivia. We’re a fun little family. We’re close and we do almost everything together. Uh oh, now Stephen is chasing Olivia through the house, wow he just body slammed her on the bed again and she bounced back up and landed on her feet. Time out time, Olivia got something in her eyes. LMAO!

Ok so I just had to delete a sentence because it could potentially hurt someone’s feelings, says Stephen. Damn, stuff like that is so much fun! So anyway, I was listening in on Stephen and his dad’s conversations last night over the phone. It was hilarious! They are  both class acts! He even told Stephen that he and I are made for each other. I think that's the best thing he probably said though during the entire conversation.

I haven’t been keeping up with this thing like I should. Sorry readers, if I have any readers. Who does one get more readers to their blog? I have my link on my Twitter page. I don’t know, I’ll have to look into that. Meanwhile it was suggested to me that I seriously put excerpts from my fiction story into my blog. I need to do that because hey, you never know, I could possibly get discovered that way. Essentially, getting discovered right now would be a HEAVEN-SENT after all the not so great stuff going on now that we no longer have a car. Yeah I know, I should have another car by now but I found out while trying to get another car that I did not have GAP coverage. The folks at my still current car loan company told me that I declined GAP coverage. I told her that I would never do that because 1 that would be DUMB and second you never know when you might need it. So because Progressive only gave them the blue book value of the car, there’s still a few thousand left over that I am still responsible for. Doesn’t that SUCK!!! So nobody wants to lend to me because I still have an open car loan on my credit and no trade-in because the car was totaled. So until I can figure out what to do next or save up a lot of moola, I’m taking the bus back and forth to school and work. But hey its New York, public transportation here is common.

Alright, its 8 o'clock now so I’m going to make an attempt to put Olivia to sleep now that Stephen just left for his manager-promoting gig he has out in the City. Smooches and I’ll try to start writing more often and Ya’ll should remind me to put excerpts from my fiction story! Goodnight!

Have a Good Day

Since the accident on the 26th, times have been rough. We still haven't been able to get another car because we found out that I didn't have GAP coverage. The lady at my loan company told me that I declined it when I know that I didn't. My guess is it was the people at the dealership I bought the car from but I have no way of knowing because the place is under new management so all those people are gone, good riddance if they are responsible for this. So I turned in the rental car this morning since we can't afford to keep it any longer. We still owe a few thousand on the car and my loan company told me that the likelihood of getting another loan right now is slim to none since I still have an open car loan on my credit.

So I'm going to be using public transportation for a while, its ok, I've done it before and I'm not ashamed. Using the bus and train is so bad at all. The rides are just long because they have to stop so many times during the trip. I was so upset yesterday when I was finding all this out. It felt like someone was taking boulders onto my shoulders and I couldn't brush them off. I still haven't been able to brush them off but we'll manage, we always do. We planned out how we were going to do everything before I turned the car in and Stephen did an assload of laundry this morning to get it down and over with while we still had some form of transportation on our own. I just have to remember to think about the good things in my life right now. My daughters is alive and healthy and flourishing. Stephen is doing great despite where he was in the car when it crashed. I'm ok, my health is good. I still have a job to go to. So everything will work itself out. A car isn't everything. I'll eventually have another. This will give me to opportunity to save up my money because I will no longer have a car note and car insurance to worry about although I do have to pay off this month's car insurance. Today, hopefully will be a good day. A lot better than yesterday. Ok, time for me to get to work. Perhaps I'll blog again later to let yall know how the rest of my day went. XOXO

Bittersweet Fridays

It's FRIDAY!!! YAY SOOO HAPPY about that... it's always bittersweet though because I know that I have class bright and early every Saturday morning. Oh well, at least class doesn't keep me there all day like work does, or at least not anymore. This week has been ok. Still recovering from the car accident b/c we've yet to replace our car with a new one. Progressive is taking forever with settling everything with my lienholder. Just wanted to share with you all the end result of the car accident. And with God's grace, Stephen, Olivia and me walked away from the accident. The 18 wheeler didn't even have much damage at all and didn't ask my insurance company for money for damage... yet. It was a true miracle. Anywho, I've been laughing at Stephen's new facebook profile pic all morning. That boy is crrrzzzzzy! I love'em though. Hopefully life will start to get better now. Everything, I know, happens for a reason. I don't know yet what the reason for this accident was besides maybe we needed a new car or some kind of reality check. I know it definitely gave Stephen's bosses a reason to lay him off. I don't think those were the only reasons though or at least I hope not. I hope that something good comes out of all of this. We could use good right now, everyone could. Ok this is weird, I can hear people up in the ceiling. I hope nothing falls down on my head. Since I am at work, I guess I should probably get to work now. Thought I'd take a breather since we had our stressful closing yesterday so now I can breathe easy again until next close. It's because of stuff like this though that I was so behind in the first place soooo I have to stop playing around before I end up losing my job or something. NO one can afford to be losing their job these days. I don't know what I'm going to end up getting into tonight. Probably nothing since its supposed to rain off and on all day. I know I need to do my homework so I guess that's what I'll be doing. Until next time folks...

Chillin with Stephen

So Stephen and I are sitting here tonight talking about having another baby. He’s ready, right now. I want a few days to think about things, you know, the financial part of having another baby. Of course it will be close to 10 months from now whenever the baby was to be born but a LOT can happen in 10 months! Trust me, I know from experience. I hope that our new baby, whenever we do have one is a son. Stephen wants to name our first son Stephen after he and his dad but I’m going to try my best from keeping that from happening… lol I don’t like the name enough to name one of my kids that. I’m a bad girlfriend for saying that but it is true. I don’t know though. We’ll see together what the future holds. I thought it was always the woman in a relationship that gets the loud ticks from her biological clock. I guess I was wrong. Hey what if we end up having TWINS!! OH MY GOSH!!! That’s kind of scary.

Ok, now I’m babbling but everything is coming together as far as that car accident stuff comes together. I still haven’t put the pics of the car on my laptop yet. I have to remember to do that. We went out to Pennsylvania this weekend to get the rest of our stuff out the car and I took more pics. I just asked Stephen, how in the hell did we survive this with only minor cuts and bumps? The Lord was definitely with us during that accident because when I looked up and saw the bottom of that tractor trailer’s trailer entering the windshield, I just knew that one of us or both of us was going to die that morning. When you see Stephen’s side of the windshield you’ll think, “Dag, how did he not get crushed?” It’s crazy. Everything happens for a reason. I don’t know for sure yet why this accident happened but I’m positive that soon the reason will reveal itself. Ok so its 1am. I gotta go to bed, the Progressive insurance adjuster is coming over again in the AM so that I can sign my title over to him since they totaled the car. Car shopping yay! My favorite!!! WOOOOOO!!!!! Anywho, good night readers! Love peace and hair grease! xoxo
