I Lost It

I have been regular for the past year. I mean clock work regular. Every 10th of the month Aunt Flo was here. Well, sometimes it was on the 11th or 12th, but never before or after. For a whole year. Actually for the first time in my life I have been regular like this. But, July 10th came and went. Then the 11th and the 12th came and went. And nothing. No period. Yes, I got the the crampiness, and the tender breast, but Aunt Flo was far from me. I have no ideal why. Well, actually I do....

If I was in a relationship right now I would be worried, but I have not had relations since July 2012, so that's not the problem.

I think it's due to being overworked. I have been so tired from work and volunteering and there have been times when I haven't gone to sleep until 2am and waking up at 6am...the other day carbon monoxide was leaking in the building so the building had to be evacuated at 4am. Yea, my body is tired, so I think Aunt Flo went on vacation cause my body has been wore out.

I hope she comes back soon. We'll see about August.

Foster Mom

I want to become a foster mom. It's actually something that I've been wanting to do for a long time. Well, I've always said that I wanted to adopt and now that I'm a little more comfortable, I think I wanna do it. I know it's a long arduous process, about a yearlong process, but I think in January I'll start the process. I actually started the process about 10 years ago, but I never completed it. But, I think in January I'm going to go for it!!!

I can't wait to start the journey.

$550

Interest sucks. Whoever came up with charging interest on loans was a genius because its a money maker. I had about $650 left to pay on my car loan. I paid $350, so my goal was to pay $150 in the next two pay periods to have it paid, but somehow over the last two weeks the balance has become $550. I understand I was charged a late fee, but $250 in fees.....WOW!!!

I'm not even gonna investigate it. I know I was late and behind. As a matter of fact I'm 4 months behind, but dag.

I want to pay about $200 from my next pay check so that I can get this taken care of ASAP!!!

Exhausting Summer

I thank God for my job. I have been learning so much. I've been background checked, tested, commissioned and background checked again......and my training is still going on. I think I will fully be able to do my work by the end of this month.

The work is not difficult, but there is a lot of information that goes into what we need to do. I've been operating without a computer so it's difficult to do my job. I have to have the internet, so thank God for my office at church. I can use the computer there. Or in the media center at church.

I've been looking for a treadmill and a desk top computer because I can not sit and do all this work. I'm already going driving a lot, so I don't want to sit at home too.

In other news....

Mister's phone is cut off, so we haven't been talking at all. I'm not mad about that. I started me debt relief program this month since I am getting a regular paycheck every two weeks. So, I'm looking at being cheap. I haven't even bought gas for my car. LOL.

I want to take the next two years to GET OUT OF DEBT!!!

In other news....

I signed up for the American Cancer Society long term study today. I'm happy about that. It's a 20-30 year study where they send me a survey to fill out every two years.

We have a summer camp going on at church. I've been volunteering at and we also had VBS where I volunteered for three days. Man, that was exhausting.

I'm So Excited

I just found a groupon for laser hair removal for $99 for six treatments. I"m so EXCITED!!!! I've been dealing with this issue since 2004 and it has only gotten worse over the years. I will be purchasing one AS SOON AS I call them to ask if the laser is good for dark skin.

I pray that it is because this is exactly what I need!!!

Thank God!!!

First Paycheck

Yes, I got my first paycheck in the mail. I am so happy. Now I can start my debt blast away!!!  Of course I have to pay my tithes and expenses first, but the rest is going to paying off bills. Yes, I did agree to help my sis with her CDL license class ($340) and I will be buying baby stuff for the new baby. I also need to get a new computer. But, I think I want to try to get a desktop since my job will be getting me a laptop. Plus, there is a desktop that I've been looking at and it's under $500.

Fraud Alert

I can't believe it. People will go to any length to defraud someone. OMG. I can't believe the bad people in the world. Even the people in the church. I know I was always taught that everyone who is at church is not saved, but dang.....I think it's bold to defraud the people of God.

I check my bank account the other day and someone had charged two things on my bank card from Amazon. The charges were for a tongue ring and a cell phone accessory. I called Amazon and they couldn't tell me the address that the items were going to. He could only tell me that it was someone here in my city. I told them that I didn't have anyone living with me and that my family doesn't live with me, so it has to be someone who is here at church with me because we started a summer camp and there are adults, children, and teens everywhere.

Someone copied my bank card number and made the charges. I wonder if it was the volunteer that I gave my card to to get supplies for the camp, or was it the transportation guy who I gave my card to to get some gas for the bus? Or was it a teen who was in the office who got into my bag and copied my card number. I have no idea. My bank did refund me the money. It was less than twelve dollars, but it's disheartening. Not only was it disheartening. It has come at a bad time.

I'm on the Pastoral Committee at my church and that means that we collect money for pastoral celebrations and one woman gave me thirty dollars for Father's Day and I thought I turned it in to the office, but it was missing. OMG!! Now, I do not know where it went. So, her money is missing. And we have to deal with it. OMG. I do not know what to think. I could have sworn I turned it in. I know I didn't keep it. I hope I didn't put it in a pocket somewhere.

God, please let that money turn up. I don't want people thinking that I"m a thief because I would NEVER steal anything from the people of God. I would NEVER steal at all. God, help me, PLEASE!!

How Does That Affect Your Values?

 I met this guy..... Oh boy..... We shall call him Dell. Dell and I met online on FB dating about a week before Christmas. During that time ...
