Life's road is sometimes very bumpy

This last week and a half has been very difficult. I still don't have a place for me and my kids yet, which is very disheartening. Not having a home is very difficult to handle, especially the part where i'm failing my children. The car I was supposed to get isn't working, so now i'm not sure exactly how i'm going to get to work either. I'm behind now in both of my classes and trying my best to catch up all the while trying to complete whats due this week as well. Sometimes I feel like everything is going wrong all at the same time. I'm scared and angry all at the same time. Not sure exactly what I'm going to do knowing that my best isn't good enough lately. Hoping all will get better soon. All my fellow classmates who believe in God, if you've got an extra prayer, I sure could use it.

What a difference!

A little over 2 years ago I moved to PA from beautiful, sunny FL. The purpose of this move, of course, was to be closer to the family. I figured the transition would be a little difficult, the weather being the hardest change to get used to. Boy was I wrong! Now, my fellow PA dwellers, please don't get offended but, the people in the state of PA are miserable, mean people. I don't know if it is just because I've grew up in an extremely friendly, open environment, but I can't get over it. It's like these people have forgotten how to associate with other people. When someone says hello to me (even if I don't know them) I say hello back. Common courtesy, right? People up here act as if saying hello to someone or even just a small smile of acknowledgment is too hard to do. I know its cold, I know it's wet, and I know I want to be back in FL, but come on people - BE NICE! That hello or smile could be the only good thing that happens to someone that day. Ok, done ranting now. Who knows, perhaps someone will read this and it will make a difference. If not, I still got it off my chest :)

Going a little crazy!

My life is a little bit crazy right now! The owner of the house we rent (currently w/parents) sold the house from under us, so now we have 2 weeks to move. My bf and I decided to move in together and I'm a little scared as sometimes I find it difficult to deal with my 2 kids and school and it'll soon be 5 kids (all under age 5), school, and just got a full-time job as well. In the process of finding a place, which is not as easy as I'd hoped it would be. Trying to remember what doesn't kill us only makes us stronger, but some days it can be hard! Keeping my head up, though, and trying my best and that's all that I can do.
