FML

I have such a headache. Today was definitely not my day. Right from the moment I got up, things started going wrong. The biggest being that I have to reapply for my Employment Insurance since my access code was lost in the mail… so I basically have to start from scratch. I could of been receiving money the entire time I’ve been laid off, and I haven’t been.

I’ve been looking for more part-time work since it doesn’t look like I’ll be going back to work anytime soon, if at all. I’m getting the feeling I won’t be hired back this year. If that happens, I don’t know what I will do. I will be screwed, to put it lightly.

Next weekend is my birthday weekend! I’m going to a friend’s place for the weekend to celebrate with her. I think one of her friends will be joining us too. I can’t wait, I just wish I wasn’t so broke because I wanna get wasted. LOL.

Mr. Frost Can Suck It

December 06th, 2009 | Category: Daily, Rant, Weather, Work

This post is for the lovely Brandi, since she reminded me I need to update. Haha.

We’ve been really lucky with the snow holding off, up until Friday, where we got hit with a snowstorm and went from having no snow to almost a foot of it. I was not happy to wake up Friday morning to see a blizzard outside. My car has really crappy tires, let alone snow tires so I wasn’t able to go to work (which would of been my last day since we are getting laid off). So now I have to go into work this weekend using my mom’s soccer mom van, to try and get the work done because if I don’t, it messes up next week for me!

Speaking of next week, I’m painting the house! Right now it’s this cranberry colour which we’ve had for years, but it doesn’t go well with the furniture at all. So I’m painting it this taupe-y brown colour. I told my parents I can do it in three days, including prep work. My dad says it will take me two weeks. I say, bring it on. So that’s why I can’t work next week because I need those three days to paint! And it needs to be done soon so we can finish decorating and putting up the tree.

I wish I could say I’ve done a lot more exciting things since my last post, but really, the last couple months haven’t been the greatest. A lot of things I depended on, aren’t there anymore, and things are just falling apart. I wish I could say this sadness was just from the weather changing, but it’s been going on for awhile. So really, I’ve just been trying to work on putting the pieces back together and feel normal again.

I think I’m going to get myself a cup of coffee, maybe have some breakfast, and head in to work to wash some beams. Exciting, right?

Emo much?

November 03rd, 2008 | Category: Daily, Rant, Site

I am so emotionally drained after this weekend. A lot of stuff I shoved to the back burner have finally caught up with me. I won’t go into detail here, but I did a little bit on my LiveJournal, so if you’re on my flist you can read about it there.

I really don’t feel like updating today, but thought I would post something because it’s been a couple weeks. I might do a bigger update this weekend because I plan on being a hermit.

Spring is MIA

March 09th, 2008 | Category: Daily, Rant, Shopaholic

Ok, what is with all this snow? It feels like December all over again. March is supposed to mean flower blossoms, snow melting… warm weather. Instead it’s been snowing like a mad man all week. We have more snow now then we had all February. At least it will be light out until about 7pm because of Daylight Savings. Yay!

I wasn’t needed at work for two days this past week, so I lost two days of pay. And now I’m $10 short for my insurance. Ten stupid dollars! I transfered some money I had stashed away in my ING account to my bank account, but it will take several days to process and my insurance comes out tomorrow. Hopefully it doesn’t bounce because I’m short.

I think I’m going to get a Mac. My dad said he would my my current IBM thinkpad off me if I do, so that money will go towards it. I was told that if you buy it in store, you can do payments on it, so I think I will inquire about that, because coming up with a couple grand right away will be a little difficult. I’ve wanted a Mac for years, and I think this year I will definatly get one :)

This day has gone by so fast for me. I’ve done nothing but read, watch the telly, made a cappuccino, went online, annnnd that was it. And it’s almost 4pm. Haha. Definatly a relaxing day!

Friday The 13th

December 11th, 2007 | Category: Daily, Rant, Work

I swear, today is my Friday the 13th. Everything that could go wrong has. It all started when I gained 3 pounds… even after I’ve been eating better and exercising. And I know it’s not muscle because my pants feel tighter. I think the thing that totally wrecked my day was seeing the new schedule for work. I was cut back to only 3 days a week. I can’t pay for my bills on that, especially since I’m only making $9.10 an hour! And my student loan comes out this month. I don’t know what I’m going to do.

I’m just so stressed now and it’s all over money. Money shouldn’t be ruining my life, but right now, it totally is. I can’t even afford gas to get to work, my mom has to pay for it. School is starting to feel like it was a waste. All it did was put me so far in debt I’m over my head. And for what? To work at Tim Horton’s making just a little over minimum wage for a boss I can’t stand? Doesn’t seem right to me. I can’t find a job in this small town, but I can’t afford to move to the city to find a better job either. I’m so lost right now…
