A Woman’s Diary

…yes…imagine this…

You as a mother or father, caring for two precious children, and just going about your business at home when all of a sudden you have troopers at your door and one who happens to let himself in through the back door. Armed with social service workers, they take your children away and claim an emergency for their safety and challenge your parental abilities. By the way, the court order they provide is completely based on false accusations and lies.

Your kids are in state care and you barely have contact with them. Every minute passed without them by your side is so agonizing and the pain is unbearable to cope with. Not knowing what they’re eating, how they’re being cared for, or even just knowing that you’re not there to tuck them in at night.

You walk through the empty rooms in your home listening to the echoing memories of love, laughter, and sometimes tantrums. But ohhhhh, you long for those as well. To have your children in your arms again and hug and kiss them until you can’t let go.

It’s every parent’s worse nightmare.

That’s sadly what happened to Carolyn, a mother of two special needs boys. She’s getting her story out through her website at SaveMyBoys.com. Just click on the banner below to visit and give her your support.

Hopefully by spreading this news, her two young boys will be back in her custody in no time. I can’t imagine the pain and suffering she and her family must be going through. Keep them in your prayers as they will be in mine.

Yes…I’m making changes in my life. Nothing is set in motion yet cause I’m still thinking about it all, but I definitely know where I’m going to start off with. What would that be? Quitting my current job as a telephone sales representative.

I absolutely HATE it. I can’t stand it any longer and it’s just ticking me off way too much. The supervisors are asswipes, the hours are insanely stupid, and MANDATORY shifts for working on holidays like HALLOWEEN or CHRISTMAS - I DON’T THINK SO!! Enough is enough. I’m sick of it all and need a break.

I was hoping that it would last since it’s a good pay considering what you are doing, but it’s just to stressful and I dread going in each and everyday…and if you haven’t noticed all of my complaints on twitter, well, let’s just say there’s a lot.

So tomorrow…I’m thinking about telling one of the supervisors that I want to leave. Most people give two weeks notice and then they say you are expected to cover your shifts for the next two weeks. I don’t think so, sorry. I’m sick of it, what makes them think I’ll cover those shifts? No thank-you. I don’t really care if I leave there with a not so good rep. Honestly, I don’t really care. I’ve done it before, I’ll do it again.

When I hate something sooo much, there’s no stopping me and there’s no forcing me to do anything. I’ll take off and continue living my life the way I want to and not be a slave to any company.

I’ll go back to school & paid blogging if I have to. I have no problem. In fact, I’m already looking at school stuff to plan my next move. And the paid blogging? Well, that is just way too easy and I can handle that as well.

Then I’ll have no restrictions and can sleep in late and stay up all night doing what I want to do and not have to worry about going off to work early the following day. I hate that the most. I’d rather spend time with my family and do things at home, then deal with crummie customers ALL-DAY-LONG on the phones.

Get my drift? I’m sure we’ve all had a job like this one time or another. And it sucks…majorly. I’ve had a headache all day thinking about this stuff and what I’m going to do. I know my parents won’t approve it but I don’t care. I’m living my life the way I want to and some changes I think ARE necessary and FOR THE BETTER before I go off the deep end and completely lose it.

I love attending big trade shows and other events. You always end up coming home with a bag full of promotional items that you can use in your everyday life.

I don’t care if it has a business’ name on it….if it works, I’ll use it. LOL! I know some people who purposely just go to these shows, just to get some free swag. No judgment there cause heck, it’s free anyways. Hahaha.

So have you collected any free swag lately?

I know, I lack in updating. Blame it all on World of Warcraft. I can’t stop playing that online game. It’s so addicting but so much fun too. Yes…I’m now an official WOW dork.

Anyways, I’ve been suffering from this tooth ache for awhile now. People who follow me on twitter, probably heard me complain about it on numerous occasions. I chipped my tooth awhile back and didn’t get it fixed right away. Having that hole, seems to have caused some infection. Now I think I have a gum abscess which is not pretty at all.

And the pain……..OMGGGGGGGG…the pain. Words cannot describe it. I know I have to make a dentist appointment asap!! No waiting anymore. This abscess can cause a lot of bad stuff, not to mention the infection. If you do a search on what an abscess is, you’ll see it on people’s gums. It’s like a bubble that is filled with pus and needs to be drained.

The sad thing is, I’m currently not covered by any dental insurance. I was suppose to be covered after working six months at my job, yet I haven’t heard about anything yet. I’ll have to inquire about it the next time I go in for my shift.

I may need a root canal which can cost way too much $$$. Ranged from $350-$1000+ depending where you are. If it’s way too much for me to cover, I’ll probably end up getting my tooth pulled and the infection treated.

I can’t deal with this anymore. It hurts way too much and is swelling.

All I have to say, is whoever keeps leaving comments on my blog with rude and obscene comments, you can go to hell.

You actually think your comments are going to be approved?? Give me a break. All comments ARE MODERATED meaning I don’t improve nothing I don’t see necessary. And your comments, well it’s clearly from an immature brat that needs to get a life.

Yes, I do know WHERE you live too!! In Auckland, New Zealand. In fact, you live right near Auckland Hamilton Motorway and Boston Road.

So ya…don’t think you’re not annoymous, it’s pretty easy to find out these things dumbass.

Time sure does fly. No seriously, it really does.

I can’t believe my older sister’s wedding is coming up in one week. Yes… ONE WEEK!!!She’s getting married on Saturday August 16th, 2008.

OMG!! I’m the maid of honour and have to make a speech too. LOL! FYI, I hate public speaking so I can already see how this is going!!

I was worried I wasn’t going to get everything ready in time too. But shoes check, appointments for hair, makeup, & manicures/pedicures check, and now all I’m waiting for is Monday so I can pick up my dress from the tailor since it had to be hemmed.

But wow…it’s been a pretty stressful time. Last minute things and getting things organized, and not to mention coming up with the $$ to pay for it all. Ya…that one..well, lets just say I have a habit of blowing my money ALL THE TIME!!

And of course I have to feed my addiction to World of Warcraft. Too much fun!! And to my guildy friends, thanks for visiting my site! See ya in Azeroth!!

Yes…I know…I haven’t updated in a awhile. In fact, I haven’t updated any of my websites in awhile. Why? One of the main reasons is that I’ve been using all of my free time to play World of Warcraft. Yes…I am now addicted to it because of a post I saw on Jenn’s site about it.

I’ve got a few different characters now and my highest is a level 23 human warlock. The other one I’ve been playing with is a elf hunter which is level 17 now which I got in a few days. LOL! If you play WOW and want to play together, you can find me in the Silvermoon realm. My warlock is named Rubylynn and my hunter is named Moonsicle.

For those of you who don’t know what this game is or never played, you can download a free 10-day trial. That’s how I started off and then I upgraded to the full version and am paying the monthly subscription.

Well, I have to get ready for work and then I’ll be playing WOW later tonight. Ciao!!

Everytime I head off to work, I always pass by this used Harleys store. The crazy thing is that it’s ALWAYS, and I mean always packed with people in there buying stuff.

I never know that many people drive motorcycles. I guess it’s due because it’s summertime and everyone is bringing out their motorcycles to drive like the wind in the nice summer breeze.

Sometimes I wish I had more room in my house. Even though my house is huge, there’s just not even room for things anymore. Everything is jam pack in and there’s no room for nothing!!!

It would be nice for me to get my own workout room but I can’t because all the rooms are full.

Having my own workout room would give me the opportunity to get ellipticals, weights, and a few other equipment I wanted. Then I can also place my gazelle glider and my ab roller in that room too. I’m sure having a room like that would motivate me more into staying in shape. *sigh*…there’s no room though.

Man…the patio furniture we have in the backyard is getting really nasty and just so worn out. Plus, there’s those little red bugs (you know, the ones you see on sidewalks that when you smash look like blood), crawling all over the chairs and table.

I don’t even bother sitting outside anymore. Too many bugs and if you know me, you know I hate bugs. So I’m trying to convince my parents on getting some kind of new patio set outside.

I want a glass set with comfty cushion seats. My parents want just the regular green or white plastic set.

Which would you choose? LOL!….to me there’s not much of a choice there since the glass ones are wayyy better.

I actually updated the theme on this blog. I know about time…plus, I haven’t been blogging here for some reason. I was thinking about closing this blog too. Now I’m not so sure. I’ll just have to see when the renewal for the domain comes around. But for now, it’s live.

Life…is still damn boring. It’s halfway through summer and the only place I’ve gone is to is Niagara Falls which is a short distance from my city. I was planning on going camping, to the beach, zoo, etc…but nothing has happened as of yet. It’s just to complicated.

There’s so much stuff going on right now and the major thing is my sister’s wedding. With figuring out what shoes to get, bra, purse, etc…it’s so time consuming.

Not only that, but I just don’t get out as much. I use to lounge around in the sun all day reading books and just relaxing with my dog, but I have yet to do that this year. Why? There’s no time. I work all the time and then on my days off, I work on my blogs and doing paid posts, etc. I don’t have a laptop so I can’t really go outside to the backyard and blog from there. I have to sit here at my desktop computer.

Seriously…I really need to invest in a laptop. Why I’ve been waiting for so long to get one, I have no clue.

It seems I have lost all motivation in regards to finishing the blanket I started. I just don’t feel like working on it. There’s just so much other things I have to do which is why I just don’t have time for it anymore. Plus, I like to work on it while I watch tv, but there’s really nothing on lately.

Maybe I’ll get back in the swing of things and actually work on it outside and enjoy the summer breeze. I dunno…we’ll see though.

Yup it’s Friday. Usually it’s something to be happy about, but for me…not really. I have to work today and then again tomorrow. Booooooo. Thank goodness today is just a short shift because I really just want to lounge around.

Don’t get me wrong…I lounged around for the past three days and just did online stuff, watched movies, and watched Family Guy on dvd…but still. Being at home without a care in the world, is something I love. Call me a hermit if you will, it’s just too cozy to be bothered to go out and about.

Plus, the weather…omg the WEATHER!! Can you say boiling hot outside. Why on earth would I go out in a 30+ degree plus humidity day, when I can stay in the freshness of having air conditioning at home?? There’s really no decision between the two for me. I’d pick stay at home rather than going out, getting all sweaty, and ready to strip naked and jump in a pool.

Ya right…I’ll stay where it’s nice and fresh and only leave when I have to.

My mom goes over the top when it comes to garden decor for our backyard. She has all these little figurines everywhere that includes bears, deers, puppies, little children, and even a turtle.

There’s nothing bad about them because they look really nice, it’s just that she just keeps getting more and more. I guess I have an easy thing to get her for her birthday which is next month. I’ll just have to find some kind of garden figurine she doesn’t have yet. LOL!

I don’t understand some lingerie stores these days. Not everyone is a size 0!! Like geeze…how about showing some love to us bigger girls.

Heck, I even surveyed some guy friends and they think size 0’s are nasty and just too tiny. Even on displays all I see are tiny & thin mannequins.

Why not display a real look-a-like mannequin that has some curves. I’m sure that will attract more audiences to your store.
