   Grrrness and stuff
Night three or four of having the kids. I swear to god I am not going to be a fulltime baby sitter. I don't mind having them, and I understand they need time with their dad, but I am not going to have them all of the time.I am getting tired of it.

   Remodel
Since we didn't go to my dad's, my bathroom has gone through a two day remodel. There are still some things that need to be done, but we can use it now! The toilet isn't working properly now unfortunately :(
I am still going through my stuff trying to weed through to get rid of stuff. 21 years of crap accumulated isn't fun stuff to see!! If anyone on here reads this and is in florida, or knows people here in florida and they want some of my old crap, PM me. I have lots of old clothes to get rid of, books (some on witch craft, some on other stuff), manga magazines that I want someone to take enjoyment out of...just all kinds of crap. I am trying to get my possessions down to nearly nothing. Blas, Jeremy, and I are looking for a five bedroom house and I don't want to have to move too much stuff. My artwork alone is at least a truck load (like an F-150, not a U-haul). I have a metal door that has a mural painted on it, a good 4ftX4ft canvas that has a painting that I have been working on for at least five years now, sculptures, other boxed paintings...too much artsy fartsy shit. I know, I know, you can never have too much artsy fartsy stuff. Then all of my instruments...Hopefully if we get the house we want, we will have the two master sized rooms for blas, jeremy, and I, then use one room for the older boys, one for the babies, and then have two spare rooms. One for an office and maybe one for a studio for me. The kitchen is GINORMOUS (i know it isn't a word) as well as the dining room. The living room is so so, as is the den/entry way. I figure there is enough room in that entry way to get a small card table and a couple of chairs and a TV that way the kids have a room to put their video games so they don't tie up the living room. They are only going to be with us a few days a week like they are now, but I want to make sure they are as comfortable as possible. Plus, we have two pits coming to us from alabama, and it has a large enough yard to put a fence up for them. It's great, a white and a brindle, the white one being blas's, and the brindle jeremy's. Eric, blas's cousin, breeds them and his red nose is ready to drop, so hopefully there will be a pretty red one that I'll like. He already said I have pick when he has puppies.
Then there is another house I like in the middle of town here. It is an old spanish style house, but it doesn't look very big. I'll have to call the owner or reality agent and see if I can have a look.
Ok, I'm done for now. Time for lunch. Drina woke me up at about 8.30 this morning and I haven't eaten yet. Time to nosh now.
Laters!

   Ok, so I lied
Well, things didn't work out. So I am not going anywhere this weekend. I really want to see my dad. I'll just stick around the house tonight and have a few beers or something. I am really depressed right now.

Alrighty, see everyone in a few days, unless I decide to post again before I leave.
I love you lady, buh bye!

   I am a weirdie
Have you ever gotten into one of those moods where you just want to clean everything? I have been in one of those since yesterday, and the only reason I stopped last night was because I had to go to sleep if I wanted to wake up at a decent hour to get Blas and Jerm-nuts to work.
I have been having a ton of trouble with the bank I use, but I got a statement yesterday telling me I had 30.01 in there instead of the 8 bucks they told me I had (after I deposited 40 and they took nearly all of it for "fees"). So I had to find my check register so I could update it, but it was nowhere to be found. That is what starte it all. I still have a bunch of crap in boxes from moving back here from my dad's. Just stuff I have no clue what to do with. So my mission today is to empty those boxes and find homes for the stuff inside. Or get rid of it if there is no puppose for the item. Just dump the boxes off at one of the charaties here in town. If I can't use it, there has to be someone out there that can get use out of whatever it is. Especially clothes. Since my weight has gone crazy and I lost a bunch (thank you vitamin B50 complex) I have given most of my clothes away. I am the type of person who can't stand to see someone needy. I grew up never wanting for anything, so it breaks my heart to see people who don't have all of the things I had, or have to break their back to get it. Like in Winter Haven, I used to sneak food from the kitchen out to a homeless couple that I befriended after they started staying in front of the theatre a lot. I even conned my boss into letting them into the theatre when it was cold so they could get warm. I always used my comp tickets to get them into a movie and bought them something to eat so they would have a little bit of a break from the life they lived. They became good friends of mine, and then one day they just disappeared. I miss those two. I can't remember their names right off hand, but they were probably the sweetest people I have met in a long time. They didn't sit on the bench and beg from people like most of the homeless there did. And they had the cutest dog. A little thing that looked like a pit bull and german shepard mix.
Oh, a little tidbit, did you know that in Dade county (Miami and I want to say Ft. Lauderdale) it is illegal to have pits unless you had them before the law was made? And if you have them from before the law, you have to have a sign on your fence that is state approved that says "beware, (whatever breed) pit is in this yard". It is insane! I just brought this up because I am extremely lucky. A guy that works with my boyfriend is bringing down five pits from Alabama and selling us one. Pure white! Blas wants to name it Isis after a pit one of his cousins used to have...I hope it has a pleasant personality...I love doggies, but I am so much of a cat person.
Alright, now that I have bored everyone with that meaningless rant that jumped from one subject to another, I am going to get a shower and start to get things done today!
Again, thanks to those who put up the ribbon. Together, we can make a difference!!

Hugs,
V.

   Thanks
I just want to send out a huge thanks to those who put the ribbon up on their page. It means a lot to me as well as the friends I have who have the disease. Hopefully, in this generation, with enough support and awareness, there will finally be an end to this epidemic.

Much love,

World AIDS Day
In honor of world AIDS day, I put up my ribbon. AIDS being one of my stronger causes, I encourage all of you to display a ribbon for those living with the disease, for those who have died, and for the family and friends who have loved ones who are living with it or loved ones who have died because of it.

   Bleh
I just really realized how boring my life is. My job isn't ready yet, so all I do really is clean up after my boyfriend and gay best friend, take care of the kids while they are here, and surf the internet. I have a few things to do today since I have to get the boys around 4.45, but that is besides the point.
Last night Jeremy decided to tell me he was going to remodel my house. And I'm like "ok, just nothing too fruity". Most gay people I have met in my lifetime have been wonderful dressers and designers. He is just....Creative, but not in the sense I tend to go for. I am more of the modern chic as far as home design goes. He works with anything available. But he is a clean freak, so he is very helpful to getting this hell hole pretty.
It's really windy outside. I can hear it singing through my open window.
Since I was sick yesterday, blas and I are going out thursday for my birthday. But instead of going out to eat, we are going to go see a movie. Then my mom's birthday is friday. And I am too broke to buy anything for her. Don't even have the money for a card. I'll work something out.

Oh, if anyone is really good with HTML, I need some ideas to jazz this page up a little. It is rather bland...

   Happy fucking birthday to me
Well, this year has definately sucked more than previous years.
I have been up since roughly three this morning with a fussy baby. My mom wouldn't give the boys a ride to school this morning even though she freaking works there, just so I have to make more trips around town to get the babies to daycare, blas and jeremy to work, then the boys to school. Then come to find out she didn't pay one of the bills I gave her the money to pay. Oh yeah, I am hot with her right now. It is like she is making my life even more difficult than it has to be. SO now I have to borrow money from blas to take care of that bill that should have been paid LAST MONTH.
Then to make me feel even worse, no one in my family shy of blas and my mother remembered my birthday. Not even my dad or my sister have called me to even wish my a happy birthday. Haven't gotten cards from anyone, and I usually at least recieve a card from my grandmother. Oh, well. Blas and I are going to Los Cocos tonight, but I may have to have Jeremy drive us there because I plan on getting at least four coronas with my meal. If I don't go ahead and hit the liquor store and get some rum or something.
I just want to go to sleep and pretend the whole day never happened.
I want to give thanks to all of you here that have given me well wishes. I don't even really know you, but you at least gave me a crumb of caring, lol.

Hugs,
V.
