Will it Work?

I am going to go to the child enforcement office this morning. My brother-in-law supposedly called them (after a lot of harrassment from his mother) to try and stop Kristofer's Mother from collecting the child support (since she no longer has the child and has not even bothered to call him for about a month!) Joe gave me conflicting stories, which I'm sure is due inpart to Danny and Joe being men. Supposedly they told Danny for us to bring the paperwork down and they would change it and Barbie would owe us all the back support, which we will never see. I was told that our notarized papers weren't good enough for the state, by people in general. Danny also told Joe that there was nothing he could do. When I called the child support office, I didn't ask about our paper work, but I did ask about what Danny could do and they told me he could ask for a telephonic re-hearing since he no longer lives in Florida. So as soon as I am done with this, I am going to gather my stuff and go sit with the masses, I'm sure.

On a good note Joe finally got a job with ECUA; he is supposed to start February 6th. I filled out an application out for him to get a $2000 loan for a car/truck which he still hasn't really gone looking for; why hurry, he's got 13 more days!!

Nothing else new; been working about 70 hours a week at the new job. I did start the "magic" pills from the OB/GYN this month, I guess in about 3 weeks, we'll know if they worked!!! :-)

Settling In

I think that my nephew is finally finding his place here. I'm not sure if it is the medicine he is taking or spending the little time he did with his Mom, but he seems to have accepted the change here and the rules of the house. Since he last talked to his Mom (December 27th) he has not asked to call her like he had been nor does he ask about her at all!! He is doing exceptionally well in school; A on his spelling test and in citizenship for the week! He did his weeks worth of homework all in one day while at Kool Zone - without me harping on him!! I am amazed and very pleased with his progress. Meanwhile his Mom is living off the money she promised us but I have agreed to stop harping on Joe about it. So I will sit here and type about how SORRY she is. How can you just give your child away and then live of the $46/week from that child's Daddy. Then again the Daddy isn't any better is he? Left his son here to move to Michigan and is having another child. Can't take care of the two you already got so lets have another and try again? WHATEVER!!!!

Tomorrow I start the new medicine the doctor gave me. It's basically a ferility pill but is supposed to help ovulation. The doctor seems to think that I will be pregnant in a month or 2 but if not I take the pills for 6 months and then go from there. We may have another (our last one!) in time for Christmas! Then we can be sorry and live off the assistance for the government for awhile!!!

Joe is going to get the job at ECUA. He goes Friday for his physical and drug and alcohol test. He has stopped drinking until then so that he may pass the test. From our understanding as long as he passes that, he has the job. Let's keep our fingers crossed!!!!

2006

I think that the reason I haven't blogged is because I haven't a postive thing to say! Nothing has changed for the New Year except that I have gotten an extra part time job to help off set some of the building debt we are experiencing due to Kris's arrival. I really hope that all this "negativism" that has come into my life is really having a positive effect on me in some way. It definitely isn't making my weight go in a negative dirrection!!! ;-)
