I fell asleep on the VMA’s.

I didn’t get my ALL IMPORTANT afternoon nap yesterday. And for anyone that knows me, if I don’t get my afternoon nap on the weekend I’m not to be dealt with. I took the boys to the beach on Sunday afternoon and got a nice tan and almost couldn’t drive home because I was so tired. But my boys weren’t and they wouldn’t go to sleep. I planned to take a quick nap, wake them up and give them haircuts but my clippers broke. I bought some new ones with my last $20 and they didn’t work so I had to borrow some more from a friend.

By the time I finished with that whole fiasco, it was 8pm and time for the VMA’s and I was dead tired. Boo…. I saw some of it though.

I had to gather all of my son’s new uniforms for their first day in their new private school. This morning I called their dad so he could see them in their executive wear on the webcam. He was blushing and so excited.

I’m still waiting for my background check to go through before I can start my new job at the media firm. I’m not partying like Ruby or meeting the stars like D. I’m just chillin, trying to motivate so that I can live comfortably with my sons.

Some people say I want too much too fast. I disagree. This usually comes from a single person with no kids. If I was a single woman, I could live on 25K a year. But I have children so all of my bills are much higher and I can’t be working a job that is low wage. I’m not greedy. I’m not asking for a handout. I’m not dreaming beyond my means. I have valuable skills that are worth the amount of money that I want to make. I just want to be able to take care of my family.

I don’t want to have to worry about going back on welfare, foodstamps and all that other jazz. I work hard because I want to be paid HARD. I’m not unsatisfied I just will not settle for less.

Oh boy…let me chill out…

I’m okay guys…Just one of them days.
