Saying goodbye to 20s

There are only three more days until I turn 30 years old and that means that we need to say goodbye to 20s. It's been ten years since I turned 20.

One week until Birthday

Just one more week until my birthday happens.

1. Dresser

I haven't put to much thoughts about my birthday list just yet.

We just have 12 days until Christmas and that means that we get to have four day work week in about a week. I am ready for that.

Pearl Harbor day 2019

December 7, 1941 might have happen before I was born but to actually step foot on the place that changed so much for our country is hard to believe.

Today marks six months of the new car and I am so happy that I still got it.

19 days until Christmas

Today marks 19 days until Christmas. I don't know what days will line up with the actual 15, 10, and 5 days of Christmas

Black Friday tiredness

Written on November 29, 2019

I only slept for about two hours and I hope that once we are done shopping that I can go get some more sleep.

I ended up taking three naps. The first nap lasted for about twenty minutes before heading to bed at 8am and woke up at 1pm. I did managed to get to my apartment and went back to bed from 3pm to 5pm.

Hello June

This month, we have three birthdays and father's day. We also have our girls weekend coming up very soon.

Goodbye May

Today is the last post and day for the month so that means that it’s time to say goodbye. Tomorrow is the first day of June so be sure to stay tune on Monday for our first post to see what we are doing.

An emergency post

I have been back and forth about making this post but you know something it's time to be honest and real with you.

For months now I have been bullied by one person because they sat there and acted that they do no wrong. I kept quiet out of respect for a mutual friend who has now turned their back on me because their significant other buys that person's lies.

Tonight I got a message saying that I was too immature to move out and live with other people.

My response was your right, I was immature to believe that they had changed their ways. I was too immature to get them off the streets after almost two years.  I should have left them there. Wait that sounds cold and heartless.  😫

Then they come back with a response that was so stupid that it made no sense. Why would I pay for someone who isn't my child to live there and do not a single thing. Why would I pay for someone to use my internet and cable service to sit on their butts and do nothing.

People some days need to read before they send stupid things like this.

Beach trip: 10 days away

I am so excited that we are ten days away from our beach trip.

No work today

Today I have the day off due to Memorial Day which I am so excited. Now it’s time to relax and enjoy the rest of the day with family.

Three day weekend ahead

I am so excited that we have a three day weekend ahead for relaxing time.

Weekend Car work

On Sunday, we worked on my car for seven hours only for it to break off bad. I ended up having to take it to the shop so they could fix it.

Weekend Car hunt

During the weekend, I ended up going up to my aunt’s house and they had an action which last year is where my dad got my car. We did not end up with a new car but that’s okay.

Back to Salmon part 2

This morning, I started the day at Burton and ended up at Salmon which is fine. I just hope that I can have a break from going to Salmon.

Back to Salmon part 1

Today I ended up having to go to Salmon for the day which is good.

50 years of marriage/Mother's Day 2019

On Saturday, My dad's godparents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary this past weekend. I was originally supposed to go to a birthday party but decided to go to the anniversary party instead.

On Sunday, we celebrated Mother's Day by going house shopping and then heading to the casino. It did not turn the way that we wanted to.

Six Years later

Tomorrow marks six years since I started watching the girls. It's crazy to think that it's been that long.

One month until Beach trip

We have one more month until the beach trip and I am excited for it.

Back to normal?

This month, we are determined to return to normal. The last time that I blogged on time was before I moved and tried to keep it going for a while. 

Today I am also returning back to Burton so that is exciting. 

Aunt's birthday

Today marks my aunt's birthday

Hello May

I can't believe that May is already here. We have one birthday this month

Goodbye April 2019

What a month this has been. I got my blogging posts back up on this blog at least. I am still working on the other blog.

We celebrated Easter and shared photos. This Easter marked seven years with kidsworld.


Personal life, I also celebrated my eight year anniversary with my boyfriend which I think will be my last.

I celebrated 18 months at Children's Village and three months at Salmon Creek. I also talked about moving to Salmon Creek as the lead toddler teacher.

What really happen at the apartment?

My roommates did not want to stay living there and that's what really happen. They blew money left and right when they knew that we had rent coming up.

Burton or Salmon Creek

Earlier this month, I started to think and pray to God about if my return to Burton is in his plans or will I stay at Salmon Creek?

The answer was at certain for weeks because I was not listening to God about it. I was focused on returning to Burton now I am focusing on listening and obeying God. He is my number 1.

I feel that he is saying "Michelle, although that you love your Burton co-workers and kiddos, I want you at Salmon Creek. You can encourage and bless those up there."

So I have decided to try for the toddler teacher position and pray that God will make it work if this is the plans he has in store for me. 

I will see you soon for another post! 

Easter 2019

We hope that you all have a wonderful Easter! 


I will see you soon for another post. 

Good Friday Travels

We hope that you had a wonderful week. Be sure to thank God for it.

This week has been super crazy and now it's about to get even more crazier since I am on the way to my aunt's house.

I hope that you have a wonderful Easter and I will see you next week! 

Three months and counting

Today marks three months and counting and now that I know that I am not going back to Burton for the forseeable future and I am okay. (You will find out later)

Two posts a week?

It seems to be that I am doing about two posts a week this month which is good for you. I will try to return to three posts very soon! 

Many anniversaries in one month

This month already I have celebrated three anniversaries!

18 months

Today marks 18 months at Children's Village and I still love it. There are days that I question why I do this.

2 more months

We have two more months until our girls weekend. We are so excited for that trip that it's not even funny. 


I will see you soon for another post

8 years and counting

It's hard to believe that it's eight years.

April 2019

Welcome to the official first day of April.

This month I am making a schedule change because after months of lacking on it, I have decided that a change is in order.

Great Aunt's birthday

Happy Birthday to my great aunt! I hope you have a good day

Jazzie's 6th birthday

In the years past, we have always gone up for her birthday but this year; we were not able to go. We will have to go up in a few weeks. I wrote a sweet letter for her to share.

Dear Jazzie, 

Happy Birthday sweet girl. You are loved by so many people that you don't even know. Your laughter lights up the room and makes everyone smile. 

God knew that you were right for this family and we are so thankful you. We will have to plan a weekend to go up to see you again.

But until then happy birthday! 

Michelle

Spring Forward

On Sunday morning, we ended up turning the clocks an hour ahead which means that we lost an hour of sleep.

Return to work?

I am so glad that I get to return to work on Monday. I really wish that it was to Burton but she did put me get me on some different allergy meds.

Visiting Parents house

I have been at my parents house for the past two days because it's easier to get help with my shoulder right now.

Two birthdays

Over the weekend, I think I hurt my shoulder. I ended up going to the urgent care and it turned out that I had a fracture in my left arm. 

I am currently off of the schedule until Friday.

Too many birthdays?

Just like September, we have five birthdays this month. Today is the start of the birthdays.

Long Break ends!
