MENTORING

I can't get on the darn website for mentoring. I can't believe it!!!
I have a mentee and have to go to the retarded library to get to the website. Worse yet, I have to take Fuzzy with me and try to compose a superfast message with him at my feet in library where they expect people to be quiet!

Got to catch up on my bible reading, I am very behind but got to read Hebrews 11 and 12 and that was incredibly helpful.
Would like to make a friend - Danielle. Might work out because we have at least two similar interests. God and adoption. (the divine combination... just kidding)

Life is otherwise somewhat poor but I am good at not thinking about it too much. (until the next time I have to deal with stupid DCF)

Still pregnant and feeling good!

CHILD SUPPORT

So I went to "comply with child support enforcement". I tried to keep casual mood as this is a total irritator to me.
Basicaly, I told the guy what I thought of the whole thing and he said that as long as state is giving me money for my son (i.e. food stamps) we have to go this route. This is little bit of a problem because it involves Department of Revenue. So. We can't really fool around a whole lot here.
He also told me that if I have change in situation every week, I need to notify them (DCF) every week. I told him they were soooooooooooooooooo slow...
I did tell him what I thought of this whole thing yet, WE WILL COMPLY. I love THE SYSTEM. Reminds me of Matrix a whole lot.
I am considering telling my husband to come home. I am considering forgeting about food stamps. I am considering getting a rich life.
Poverty SUCKS.
On the bright side, Fuzzy had a lovely day yesterday at the playground. There were big puddles and he soaked his shoes and then took them off and played in the mud. He was so happy about it. We also fought with sticks. He loved it. I did feel tired in the evening.
Fuzzy's teacher at school is having problems with her pregnancy and looks very tired. My heart goes out to her. How are you supposed to have a life when you are pushed from every side? I don't get it.

Cocroaches, child abuse and DCF

I was making a list of things I hate. First were cocroaches (which btw DIED!!!!!). Second was child abuse (which isn't really second but just came to mind second) and today I had to add DCF. I just LOVE them falks (yeah!)
We are applying for medicaid for my pregnancy. Have you ever done that? I am becoming pretty good at predicting their requirements (and they are usually quite out of this world) but today they really surprised me. Because my husband lives out of state I have to submit an application for child support! Excuse me?! I told the lady we don't want to do that, that we are in fact a family. No, I have to do it. I mean what do you say to that. How much money is he sending me? She asked. I said, well, he's been unemployed for over a month so he didn't send anything... So there goes I guess child support. I also told her that when I applied in the past (while separated) it didn't do a thing (they never even contacted me once). She "doesn't know about any previous cases, but I have to apply".
There's DCF for you.

COCROACHES, ANTS AND THE REST OF THE SUCKERS.

Today is Saturday. My favorite day. Fuzzy told me at 7:30 in the morning that he wants to go to the beach... (that was his first sentence of the morning)
Anyways.
Marti is coming back I guess today from her trip.

Major purchase of yesterday was roach traps. I put them all around the car. I am SICK, SICK, SICK of those Mother-F...
Regardless, this morning I saw two of them dead!!!!!!!
Die, you stinky creatures! I hate them.
My husband is laughing at me but I told him that I am willing to move up north so that all roaches can die. I am not kidding. One thing that gets me up and moving is pests. They do have some power, I guess.

Other then that, I think the Munchkin is doing fine, didn't see any more bleeding. Reducing my job hours may still poze a challenge but I am taking it one step at the time.
Duckie had a good point. She told me that I don't have a bad feeling regarding the pregnancy and I agreed. I sure hope that is a reliable indicator that EVERYTHING will be allright.
