Time is Flying By . . . I am so random!

I just logged in and looked at my last post. It was on May 30th! I have not logged in or checked in for a week! Geez! This past week has been nuts. My daughter's VPK had several events this week that I had to prepare for, including her "pretend" birthday party since her birthday is in the summer. I had to make Little Mermaid rainbow cupcakes. I will try to post a photo later. They turned out well and the kids were amazed that the cake was rainbow colors! She also had her end of year celebration where they sang songs and were presented with a certificate of completion. She did so well, and looked cute doing it! After that they had a pizza and ice cream party. Talk about temptation! I did end up eating one slice of pizza and finishing my daughter's ice cream. :(

Today we are having terrible weather! It is raining like crazy. Which sucks because the children and I have to attend a WIC appointment this afternoon. I hate driving in rain. And I especially hate driving with the children and having to drag them in and out of places in the rain. Oh, and we are all sick with some sort of sinus/cold thing too. Fun, fun, fun. And for those of you who don't know, yes, my family has WIC. We also have EBT. The economy and my fiance's job just have not been good to us. We would love to not have to use this stuff. Lord knows I would love not to have to do the appointments or the evaluations and the reviews. But it is necessary for us right now. I have to finish school and my fiance is just a few steps away from getting re-certified as a paramedic. Once those things happen we will be financially stable once again. I miss that. We haven't been financially stable in a long time. Since 2010, I guess. Back then we were both working and making pretty good money. However, I got laid off in October of that year and he got laid off the following January. Things just haven't been really good, money-wise, since then. Slowly, but surely, we are coming back from it. Unfortunately, it just doesn't happen overnight.

As I just wrote that, I just realized it is a prime example of how my ADD works. I start off on a topic, in this case, weather. That leads to talking about WIC appointments and moves into EBT and how we ended up needing it. The next thing I probably would have touched on is how there are sucky people that just use the system and are lazy and don't have any plans to do better. So I can go from weather to people suck in just a few short thoughts. No wonder my fiance has trouble following what I'm saying in a conversation! Wow, this post started out about how time is flying by, and ended on ADD. WOW. I am kind of weird. This is why I could never write a book. It wouldn't make any sense to anyone but me! Ok. I'm going to go now. I think I'll rename this post. LOL!
