so my mom just left for california....it was nice having her here for christmas...we will be visiting over there in the summer as usual ....but still...its just nice to have mom close....I really have missed that...I'm so caught up with myself as a mom....I guess I just forgot what it was like to be a daughter....christmas was awesome...we received a mini-dvd camcorder/new digital camera/rock band/kidrobot toys/mini-jukebox/a few art prints/clothes clothes and more clothes...my mom and I share the same need to shop our brains out.....

This past week has been interesting...I had alittle more fun then expected on my birthday...rachel,kristin,kathi,rob,aaron,amy, steve and I went to Ibar/bbq/backbooth.....ran into a few old friends...danced...drank...and celebrated the 23rd year of my life....
work is sucking more and more.....this place is so corrupt....you seriously can't trust anyone....I actually did alittle test on someone here just to see if they would "spill the beans" so to speak....my accusations were correct....not even an hour later this person opened there big mouth...crazyness.......I feel really alianated here....like the chinese proverb says...if you stick out like a nail your the first to be hammered....something like that.....I'm considering finding another job...you can't grow in this work environment...all the managers do is hire outside friends....I don't know what to do....

I just purchased tickets for Henry rollins!! hell yeah, I'm so excited...I'm reading his book "roomanitarian" its freakin amazing...the past 2 years I have really fell in love with his work...years ago I never saw myself as a very political person...I just didn't care to listen..because I had nothing to lose...now I have a family....which is everything to me...so of course now more then ever my concerns for the well-being of this country is more so then ever...I don't want edwyn growing up in a cowardice ignorant society...his mind is a sponge and I'm taking full advantage of that. I want him to help make a difference.....he will....I feel it...
that is all

12:51 pm - home sweet home
|
awesome.....back home now......GOD why can't we live in california...I mean just instantly materialize there with all our stuff with no complications....that would truly be amazing....oh well...maybe its mean't to be that we stay in florida for sometime...then slowly make our way out there...I just really miss hanging out with my mum....we have grown so far apart now that when we visit its like I'm with a whole different person......it sucks....I find myself desperately seeking the approval of her and I'm always shot down...one way or another....my tattoos my hair my style of dress....its a never ending story....the only thing she is somewhat happy about is how great of a mom I've grown to be...which that makes me smile....I had a huge discussion with steve about this...about how I never want to end up like my mom and I...I want edwyn to grow up knowing that he can come to me for anything and know that I will always be there for him regardless of what reason.....I'm thinking that if we move closer maybe my mom and I will be on better terms just because she will see me as what I was once before and still am...on the inside....I just don't see what the big deal is...I understand appearance is everything especially in california....but come on......alas.

Yea. My mothers day pretty much sucked..my dad was having chest pain so we took him to ORMC ER...which he then was admitted to a room and now resides there at this moment...argh! He has been having chest pains for about a month and he just now thought to tell us. So, of course my mind is set on "worry myself to death" mode which is always just awesome...I just hope everything is ok.....

9:25 am - JEN and JAMES this one is for you.

It's not always easy to know whether your child's caregiver is doing the job she's supposed to. To find out, you may have to do some sleuthing. Some parents who suspect something may be amiss rent nanny surveillance equipment. But it's often possible to tell whether something's wrong without going to that extreme.
You may have trouble on your hands if:
* Your toddler isn't happy to see the nanny or babysitter and has become anxious and withdrawn. A regular caregiver can never replace Mom or Dad, but a child needs to trust and love his nanny or babysitter completely. Perhaps your toddler and caregiver haven't bonded, or the nanny or babysitter just isn't providing the kind of warmth and comfort your child needs. As in every human relationship, having the right chemistry is important. (If you suspect something more serious is wrong, educate yourself about the signs of child abuse.) • Your nanny or babysitter seems secretive about the daily routine. How your toddler and his caregiver spend their time shouldn't be a secret . When you come home, you're probably eager to hear about your child and what happened while you were apart. If your caregiver isn't forthcoming about it, either she's not good at communicating with you or she has something to hide. Even a caregiver whose English is limited should be able to convey the ups and downs of your toddler's day, and will understand why you want to know.
• Your child has been in one too many easily avoidable accidents. A nanny must keep her eye on your child, and know what he's doing at all times to prevent injury. She may be leaving your child unattended as he sleeps or plays.
• You notice your requests aren't followed. Both of you are working together to care for your child, so a caregiver shouldn't act as if she knows more about him and childrearing than you do. "I didn't like my babies to be fed on schedule and I told my nanny so," says Kirsi Tikka, a professor from Port Washington, New York. "But she insisted on it." Eventually, Tikka and that particular nanny parted ways.
• She seems critical of they way you're raising your child. Again, you're supposed to be a team. And you should welcome constructive suggestions from your child's caregiver — especially if she spends a lot of time with your ever-changing toddler. But if you get the sense that the two of you just aren't on the same page when it comes to basics like food, sleep, and safety, the relationship might not work out in the long run.
• Your nanny or babysitter often shows up late. An undependable caregiver will leave you in a lurch time and time again. Find someone who you know is committed to the job and considerate of your needs. Tardiness and unexplained absences may mean she's unreliable in other ways as well.
• Your toddler often looks unkempt and dirty. If your little one's caregiver can't take care of the basics, it may be a sign that she's not on the ball when it comes to meeting your child's needs.
• Her stories don't add up. Never tolerate someone who steals, lies, or deceives you in any way. You have to be able to trust your caregiver for the relationship to work.
