On my mind this week.

10 things on my mind this week.. in no particular order.

1. Looking for a car to buy. Who would have thought it would be SO HARD to find a decent car that runs with no mechanical problem and is in our price range? It is beyond frustrating and we are desperate.

2. Finding a washer/dryer. We have so much dirty laundry; it's not even funny. Having to get a ride and have money to get quarters, having to drag my kids with me to wash clothes, and with 5 of us, I can just never keep up. It's ridiculous.

3. Going home to Hawaii to visit! I just keep thinking about going back and hoping the weeks will just fly on by. I can't wait for so many things.

4. Thanksgiving.. wondering if we will celebrate or not.

5. Art and Crafts to do with the boys. I bought some finger paint, so I think we will be doing that this week.. Well, if I can get most of my school work squared away.

6. Crochet! I have a bunch of projects I am working on and projects I want to work on. hehe

7. Homework/School. I have papers to write, peer reviews to do, along with discussions and other assignments. I hate having homework always on the back of my mind when I'm trying to do family things and housework. It stresses me out.

8. Finding our cell phone. Ugh. :( I wish it would just pop up.

9. Errands I need to run and paperwork I have to fill out. Stuff for Tay's school, for hubby's school, and for the boys' doctor.

10. How fast my boys are growing :(

10 Things I'm Sick of

Every Monday, I will be writing on a prompt. Today, I chose "List 10 things you're really sick of." With the way things are going right now, this shall be easy.

1. I am sick of having to depend on people. I tired of having to ask for a ride to go somewhere or having to schedule appointments around times when I think I might be able to get a ride. I'm tired of having to cancel appointments because of not having a ride. I'm tired of being a burden and a pest.

2. I am sick of all the evil in this world. I can't turn on the TV without seeing something bad and can't watch the news without hearing very horrible things.  Babies and children being killed and hurt, murders, rapes, spouses cheating on each other.. it's all so horrible and I'm sick of it. I wish I could change things. I wish I didn't have to worry about my children and the times they have to grow up in.

3. I am sick of complaining. I wish I didn't have things to complain about. I seriously need to stop complaining and suck it up. *Sigh.

4. I'm sick of procrastinating. When it comes to school, I procrastinate. I despise writing papers and because of that, I tend to put it off until the last minute.

5. I am sick of being cold. It hasn't even been that long of being cold but I am already sick of it. I get so lazy when it snows and is super cold out. I don't want to take out the trash or check the mail.. anything really.

6. I'm sick of not being near family. I truly dislike not having someone to call up to come over and just hang out. I'm sick of being on the computer a lot because I can't really converse with my children (I do spend time with them doing things but I can't vent or really talk to them).

7. I am sick of being a big worry wart. I worry too much about so many things.

8. Along with worrying, I am sick of stress. When I worry about something, I tend to stress over it. I hate stress.

Ok so I tried really hard to come up with 10 things but I can't. That's a good thing though, right? It's a good thing I don't have too much to be sick of, right? Lol. I will leave it at that. :)

Another Update!

We are finally all moved in to the new apartment and the old one is all clean. Moving was so stressful. My husband had moved all the big, heavy things and I pretty much had to move everything else because he is at school during the day and then he has tutoring in the evening. He also hurt his ankle/achilles (he doesn't know which) so walking to school, back home, and then up and down the stairs already caused him enough pain.  Trying to move things over while keeping an eye on the 3 kids (more like get them to stay in the new apartment) was simply not simple. On top of moving, I had homework and papers to write.  Also, as if that wasn't enough, my boys were sick while we were moving. Trenton vomited eight times on the day we moved most of the things over. I almost had a breakdown and gave up. Just thinking and writing about it makes me stressed out.

Anyway, I'm glad that is over.

Tayven is still in school and loves it. He brought home his school pictures.. and guess what? He didn't smile! We practiced that morning! This child of mine!! It's okay though; he still looks handsome. :) I need to get them sent out to my mom so she can hand them out to my our family back home.

My kids are crazy. With winter coming along (it snowed yesterday, ugh) they will be cooped up in this house AGAIN and it sucks. Winter is depressing except for Christmas. Trenton is talking lots and just being his naughty 2-year-old self.  Titan is starting to learn to walk. So far, he has taken 2 steps. He is still a bit scared to stand so he'll stand for a few seconds and then slowly sit back onto his butt.

We are looking for a car to buy. I've had no luck on KSL because all the cars in our price range, so far, either have a mechanical problem or a mileage of 170,000 and up. I really hope we can find something... We just need something that runs and will be safe during winter. I'll keep praying that something comes along. I am beyond tired of asking people for a ride. The past few weeks, we've been walking to Kent's but now the good ol' winter is here we can't do that anymore. So, if you are in Utah or know someone who is, please keep an eye for cars for sale! =)

AHHHHHHH!

I have a few ahhhh's to share.

The first one is that Titan's first tooth (bottom, left side) has come through! I am scared to get bit. He wants to bite down on everything and I am scared every time it is time to feed him.

The second is that my three classes started today. I have Psychology, Anatomy & Physiology II, and Anatomy & Physiology II Lab. There is so much work! I have no idea how I am going to do all of it along with being a mom of three. I just barely got through it the last time I had three classes.

The third is that I went to the dentist yesterday and found out that my impacted wisdom tooth is infected. I need to have it taken out by an oral surgeon. There are no oral surgeons where I live, so I have to travel to Prove which is an hour north of here. I have to be gone for approx. 3-4 and I won't be able to nurse Titan. So now I have to get him to learn to drink from a bottle before that day comes. Which makes me extremely sad... I hope that he still nurses from me when I get back. :(

I want to pull my hair out already, but I can't do that because I am already going bald. "/

Please pray for me that I will remain sane through the next two months!
