I think it's wrong to force health insurance on someone who doesn't want it or can't afford it. They are considering garnishing wages for people who refuse to participate in a health insurance plan. There they go, taking the peoples free will away. What if a person is poverty-stricken and can't afford health insurance no matter how affordable it may be? What if they need that extra $50 or whatever it is per month that it costs? I just think that this requirement would be so wrong for this country. You can force a person to pay taxes, but you can't force them to take medical insurance. What is this country turning into anyway? Neo-Nazi America?  Here is a new poll that I created based on this article:

| Well, I start a new job tomorrow at a mortgage company. I hope and pray that this is a job that I am going love and have long-term. I am tired of hopping from one job to the next or being laid-off. I need stability and sanity in my life. I am tired of being thrown aside like a ragdoll by shit-companies. Wish me luck! |
Yesterday, Sheila and I were in the livingroom with my niece, Jazlyn bit Sheila on the butt, so Sheila bit her back. Jazlyn got frustrated with her and tells Sheila, "Don't do that again, I'll knock your block off!"  I nearly fell out of the chair doubling over in laughter when I heard that. I couldn't help but laugh because it just took me by surprise. |
| There is a local band here in Kalamazoo, whom I think are awesome, and not because one of my sisters is dating the lead guitarist either. They are seriously kick-ass. They are called "Sons of the Revolution" and I know that they are good enough to be signed to a major label. They definately have great potential. Here is a link where you can listen to mp3s for free, I have to warn you that this is metal music and very loud, lol. So if you're not into that sort of thing, then don't listen. "All Bridges Ash" is one of my favorites of this band. http://www.mp3.com/artist/sons-of-the-revolution/songs/ Enjoy! |
I purchased some online anti-virus-ware......it found almost 200 trojans, worms, spyware, and cookies. I was able to get them all and delete them from the system. The computer doesn't sound like it's overworking itself like it has been. So far, it hasn't crashed. *fingers crossed*  It went back to its normal desktop too, so that's a good sign, and the desktop is minus a few icons that happened to be spyware and viruses, so I know it's working. Hopefully there won't be any problems from now on. Assuming that Sheila or anyone else that happens to use my computer doesn't download or do anything stupid to allow these damn things on here. |
| The deadbeat is coming over today to watch Jazlyn. Why? Because Sheila didn't ask me if I could watch her again, like I did yesterday. Hello! Did she think I wasn't going to be here, and that I would actually go out in that winterstorm crap that we are having right now? I hope that this storm keeps him from coming over tomorrow. Because if he comes over tomorrow, I am going to have to babysit him and my niece. So far he has shown that he is lax in being a proper father-figure to Jazlyn. I wish he weren't around at all. My niece and my sister would be much better off without him. Sheila told me that I will have to watch him, because he's a big time snoop. Great. Just what I wanted to spend my day doing. So far, this week has not been very pleasant for me. I can't wait for it to be over with. |
| Things didn't go as badly as I thought. Jazlyn acted up when she first woke up. I got her to calm down. She was a good-girl for most of the time I watched her. We spent the day watching my Disney movies; The Emperor's New Groove, Beauty & the Beast, and Aladdin. I managed to sneak in my soaps for the hour and a half when I fed her lunch. Sheila came home around 3:45. The amazing thing is that when Sheila got home, Jazlyn decided to throw a terrible two tantrum. She will behave for me, but not Sheila. I find that yelling doesn't get you anywhere. I find that calmly telling her to do or not to do something is more effective than yelling. Maybe my sister should try this for a change. |
| Sheila asked me to watch Jazlyn from 8:30am-3:30pm tomorrow. Which means I will have to do my laundry here at the facilities downstairs. I just hope Jazlyn doesn't cause me too much grief. Hopefully things won't get to stressful or difficult. I agreed to do it though. |
This has been the most boring day out of the week. I am still actively looking for a job. Sheila's boyfriend told her that he loves her. I think that's the best news that I have heard since Christmas when Jill's boyfriend gave her a promise ring. I am glad to see that my sisters are finding men that love them. If I never find love for myself, then at least I can take comfort in knowing that my sisters have men that love them and will take care of them, and keep them safe.  I am not saying that I am giving up or anything, but ya know.  |
My sister took Jazlyn to the doctor yesterday, and she tested positive for strep throat. Great. One more thing for me to get. As if I haven't had enough to deal with already. I know that the incubation time is 2-5 days, and I have been around her longer than that, since Sunday anyway. So far so good. Other than feeling a little lethargic, I seem to be fine. The deadbeat caught it though, hee hee.  If anyone deserves strep throat, it's him. If I don't catch it, does that mean I have a really good immune system? Or does it mean the opposite? I am thrilled to see that my cousin Melissa is fashionably late! has made it home and seems to be making a great recovery. May she be healthy here on out. |
| My sister Sheila and I were talking about dad yesterday. She was talking how dad was short of breath the day that he died, and she told me that she yelled at him that day and told him to call his doctor. And he just blew it off saying that it was probably a normal side-effect. After he expired later on that day, Sheila found a paper from his vein treatment clinic, and if any of the following side effects occur, call your doctor immediately. Having trouble breathing was one of those side effects. She told me that Jill had thrown out his Vicodin because he was taking more than the recommended dosage and that he was also drinking beer like there was no tomorrow. Damn. His death may have been easily avoided if he weren't so stubborn about not wanting to call his doctor. It's possible that there was another cause, and that's why we are now impatiently awaiting the results of the autopsy. I think that younger people should take first priority over the old farts that die of natural causes. We shouldn't have to wait 1-3 years to find out what killed my dad. I think that it was a combination of everything, his treatments, overdosing on the Vicodin, and his drinking. It's a real shame that this may have been the cause. |
| I really hate it when I get a leg cramp in the middle of the night while in a dead sleep. Well, I hate them regardless of the time they strike, but it's worse when you're sleeping for some reason. It starts out as a slight pulling sensation, and then BAM! It's the worst physical pain that you can experience is a leg cramp. It happened around 3am which is around the time you get those motherfuckers. I sprung up and started screeching and crying, but quiet enough to where it wouldn't wake up my niece. I just started a diet a few weeks ago, and I think that it's starting to affect me a little. That's probably why I am getting the leg cramps. I must be lacking something. |
| I have decided to quit complaining about being the one to buy the toilet paper and water for the apartment all of the time. It's not worth my time or energy to get bent out of shape over something like that. I am still hunting for jobs. I have even expanded my re-locations to Grand Rapids, Battle Creek, Lansing, Detroit, and even Ontario Canada, lol. Desparate times call for desparate measures. I seriously doubt that I will get an offer from Canada, they would rather hire someone from their own country, lol. It's worth a try anyway. I am just tired of being out of work is all. It's depressing. In order to move to Canada, the pay would have to be enough for me to at least survive anyway, and have a little residual to have fun. So I really doubt I will wind up there. The other cities that I have listed might be good areas to find a job. I will be looking into that today. Hopefully, I find something worthwhile soon. |
| I am so thrilled that my cousin is going to be alright. I was relieved to hear from her lastnight. I can't believe how unreactive and insensitive Sheila has been with this. You would think being a woman herself, she would at least be compassionate and caring about it, but she's not. Melissa became emotional lastnight, and almost made me cry. When I first found out that she lost both an ovary and her fallopian tube, I nearly cried, my heart ached for her. I can't believe she has to be out of work for 6 weeks. I hope she heals fast and doesn't have anymore things happen to her. She has been through enough in the past years. Please continue your prayers for her, she is going to need love and support from everyone. |
| I recieved a call from my cousin, and she is doing as well as can be expected. She is devastated over losing part of her reproductive system. I can relate to her because being a woman too, I would be devastated also. She had an infection that caused a cyst, I think that's how I understood it. And they said the only reason why it didn't spread to her uterus and other fallopian tube was because of her IUD prevented it from spreading. She told me that she might be getting out tomorrow, but has to stay out of work for 6 weeks. Please keep Melissa in your prayers. |
| I talked to my grandmother today......so far so good. Melissa not only had to have her ovary removed, she also had to have the fallopian tube removed as well, because there were cysts on that too. The other ovary had a cyst on it, so they were able to just clean that off. My aunt will be up to visit her this afternoon sometime, and I will have more information then. Thank you for all of your well-wishes and prayers for my cousin! |
I plan on calling Melissa at the hospital today to see how she's doing. I will let everyone know at some point today how Melissa is doing. When I told Sheila about our cousin losing an ovary, all she said was, "So. She still has the other one. I have cysts on my ovaries and I can still have children." How insensitive can she be?  She's also self-centered. We are out of toilet paper and water again. I am tired of buying the essentials all of the time. I have to go out in the crap weather, just to buy a couple of simple items. I think I am going to hide the toilet paper and probably the water too. I know it makes me look like a bitch, but damnit, I am tired of providing for her, and having her do diddly-squat. She doesn't even take out the trash. She will let it pile up, until I have to be the one to haul it out. As soon as I get another job, I am out of here! I can't take it much longer! This is getting out of hand and insane! She maybe going through shit because of Dan, but that's no excuse for her lazy-self-centered behavior. I will not feel sorry for a self-centered and lazy, spoiled brat! |
| I just received a call from my grandmother, my cousin, Melissa is fashionably late! is in the hospital for an ovarian cyst. She went into the hospital lastnight for abdominal pain. They were supposed to attempt to remove the cyst this morning by laproscopic surgery. If they can't remove it this way, they will have to remove the entire ovary. My grandmother hasn't heard anything additional from my aunt. Please pray for her. I am worried about her. ****UPDATE**** Melissa had to have one of her ovaries removed and will be in the hospital for a few days. Please pray that she makes a speedy recovery. |
| I am getting sick and tired of finding nothing for work in my area......I am tempted to look in Detroit and Lansing for jobs. Kalamazoo sucks right now. There is nothing within a 40 mile radius from where I live. If I get a good job in a bigger city, I will just have to move there and try and make it on my own. I like where I live and everything, but it's getting ridiculous. I can't take it anymore. I am at my wits end. |
I was supposed to join this "Biggest Loser" competition at my sisters gym. Well, I called Jill's gym and they were supposed to have someone call me back and they never did. Then I called the day of the deadline and they told me that I needed to bring in an essay page within a half hour. Yeah right. I explained to them that I was Jill's sister, and all they could say is "sorry" a million times over. I told Jill when she came over, and she is really pissed. She told me that one guy showed up without an essay and they let him join. What a bunch of assholes, that's how Jill referred to them anyway, lol. I guess I will have to go it alone. I have done this in the past, and I have lost a ton of weight. I know I can do it.  |
