Smells like Rain

I think I know why I don't blog much nowadays. At first it was being too busy with work and being a new mother. Since losing my job in February there still hasn't been much to talk about, aside from that, and I try not to think about that (speaking of which, my next check will only be $26, the $1 left on my account plus the $25 stimulus. Yay! I can pay... One bill with that and have a few bucks left.). During the rare times I do want to blog, it's just been so long that I can't get into it. It would be nice if I could snap out of it.

I was supposed to blog shortly after my birthday on the 7^th. Really, not much with that either. I wasn't in the mood to do much, I was sick. I can't even take a bite of my birthday cake or I know I'll regret it, sick. I ended up not being able to eat much the few days prior. We celebrated, or at least attempted to between the sickness, my birthday on the 6^th since my mom had an appointment. It's a good thing, because on my actual birthday the weather was horrible. It seems to get that way whenever I have plans to leave the apartment. One of my brothers wanted to take me out to eat at the restaurant I just so happen to have been craving for over the last few months. My friend that I spoke of in my last post didn't get to hang out with me since I was ill. We also had plans to go out and eat before she went home. At least I was able to eat half a chicken burrito my mom made. That ended up being my birthday meal, lol.

My parents got me a couple of purses. I usually grab a cheap but nice looking one and use it until it falls apart, but these ones are actually really good quality. They'll last me forever. I'm also wearing the Skechers Shape-Ups my mom purchased. They're actually really comfortable. For the price, they better work. Like my purses, I can keep my shoes in good shape for a while, so I'm not feeling too bad about the price. Other than that, I received money and a gift card. I'm trying not to spend them on needs and get at least one thing I want, but I did say I'm only getting $26 for a week >


Other than that, I've been trying not to stress out. I can't tell if my hair's shedding more than normally again, or if it's just winter shedding. I wouldn't be surprised, one of my family members is sick, and not in the horrible but I can deal with it until it goes away way I was. She's taking medicine to see if that clears things up. If not, she has to have a biopsy to figure out what it is. Since hearing the news my head has been hurting a bit, and I didn't sleep the following night. Lately that's been getting to me more than the money issues.
