Happy 4th of July!

So this hasn't been the holiday weekend I was hoping for.... my back is still hurting- but I go to the doc tomorrow! I can't wait and I'm going to plead for a steroid shot in my back to help ease the pain for awhile. Last time it worked wonders!!!

I have been keeping myself busy this summer. When I'm not babysitting Libby, I'm usually working on something around the house or creating something awesome for the next school year! I'd really like to get myself financially stable here real quick b/c I'm stressing about how I"m going to pay all my bills next month and have enough left for groceries. I got myself in debt thanks to some stupid credit cards and I don't know how I'm going to pay all of off anytime soon. It's stressful. I really have to get myself to stick to my budget b/c this stress is going to be the end of me! So I'm thinking about purchasing some fun clipart this week and start creating some teacher materials to sell on "teacher pay teacher". I just need to figure out what to make first! I am considering getting a part time job this school year to help pay off my CC bills. Something like Crazy 8 or Baby Gap.... so I can work from 5-9 or something.... I hope they can work with my teacher schedule b/c that would be perfect!

I need to come up with a clever blog name. I'm not thrilled with "My Not-so Perfect Life" b/c it sounds a lil Debbie Downerish. And if you know me at all.... I try to not dwell on the bad, but cheer people up.... I'm a dork basically. Man, this post is all over the place. I honestly don't like to "journal" or anything b/c I don't like to write. (I know.... and I'm supposed to teach my Kinders to LOVE writing. I'd say I was pretty successful last year thought. My kids favorite center was writing! I put fun paper, colored pens, etc in there with a bunch of words with pictures that they could write about. This year will be even better! Ahhhh!!!! Look at me.... starting ot talk about work on my non-school related blog. See... this is my problem. All I ever think about is work. I LOVE teaching, and love talking about it. So when it comes to my friends and family.... if I'm not talking about work.... then I'm pretty much bored. What is wrong with me?! I need to find me a man for rizzle. I want to go on trips with someone and have funny stories to tell... but it's hard to do that when you're on your own! Maybe this is what I should write about- what's it's like to live on your own and my adventures (or lack there of lately) in the dating world....

We'll see.... for now let's hope I can get the courage to get back out there again. I've been a little discouraged lately. I've discovered dating sites are NOT for me. I am too weary about men online b/c you never know if they are just putting on a show/lying about themselves and what their intentions are. It's so frustrating.

Guess I'll get off here and spend some time with the fam. Happy 4th ya'll!!!!
