Do you ever just feel like screaming?

Cause I certainly do. This past month I have had so many days where I just wanted to scream. First, way back in August, our car broke down. We were told by a mechanic shop it was our alternator and it would cost 600 bucks. Cough Cough blow to the gut there. Ya right I can't afford that! So we found another mechanic who said 300 than had my grandpa get a used part for us and my brother put it in. Hooray! Not so much, on our way to Ogden it broke down. Turned out there was a fried battery wire causing all our problems. 120 dollars later car runs fine. That was my first few scream worthy days.

Next, Josh's boss freaked out on him and told him he no longer had a job. Well crap. After stressing all day she called and apologized for losing it and told him he still had a job. Good my scream day ended. We went to Victor for Labor Day weekend and had loads of fun.

Tuesday after Labor Day Josh has to meet with his boss. She gives him the option of stepping down as manager or they will do it for him. So now we are back to crap. This means Josh has taken a huge paycut. Scream Scream Scream

Than peach days came which meant the peach queen pageant. I stressed stressed stressed than scream scream scream again. That was over just meant I could go back to the job thing. Aggh, so now we are scraping pennies (even more), begging my mom to let us come live with her again (no response yet), and praying for any job of any sort to help!!

Now that you have got to hear my screaming I am going to share my pictures that I promise have no screaming in them..... well i think not anyways I can't say for certain on Amelia.

I should post shouldn't I?

I have the cutest little blue eyed babe in the world and should be showing her off yet it's been forever since I posted! I am in trouble with some grandmas.......... good thing I am better at facebook.

Well we have had one crazy month. We spent lots of weekends in Idaho. We went to Victor for the 4th of July and Josh's high school reunion. It was just too much fun who on earth wanted to come back to reality? Afterwards I went to Pocatello for Relay for Life Fundraisers. I had been making bows like crazy to sell for Relay I swear my thumbs were bleeding. Then we went back up to Pocatello for the actual event. It was way fun, Exhausting, but fun. My most recent adventure was going with my mom to Provo while she had a conference. It was such a blast hanging out with my sister's in law during the day. We made hair bows (I just can't get enough)and just had all out fun. My mom's conference paid for our meals and we even got to go see "Annie get your guns". I spent time shopping at the DI and getting the best ever clearance sales. The only problem with that is that you can get lots of things for cheap but you still can spend lots of money, it just feels more justified. Now this is not all that is going on but I feel I have shared my piece and am going throw in an overload of pictures sooooooo.... ENJOY!!

Never Ending Drama.......

Story of my life. I have lots of drama, not in the high school "I-hate-you-for-stealing-my-boyfriend" kind of drama. But real life hard core drama. In the long run it just means I have more stories to tell so I guess I will take that as a good thing. Anyways, back to my drama of the day....

I had my 6 week post-partum checkup today. No worries I am healthy. In fact I have lost 30 pounds since Amelia was born, yay for me :). Sorry I keep getting off track, back to the drama. First thing when my doctor gets there is he tells me to come look at my chart and the placenta test results that came back. He says "look at this you had an infarct" a what? I swear it sounded like some other word. Well apparently I had an infarction of my placenta. A blood clot had formed at some earlier point in my pregnancy and stopped blood flow to a big chunk of the placenta and killed it. I was in shock. My doctor goes on and on about how lucky we are that baby is here safe and sound yadi yadi yada. Holy crow, I am sooooooooooo relieved today more than ever. After google-ing blood clots and infarctions we are truly blessed Amelia was born full term alive and healthy. I know I shouldn't worry about what the doc. said but I am just really disturbed by what could have been.

On a side note some stinking German dude started rubbing and filing my nails and making them looking all pretty and nice today at the mall. Somehow all that led to me buying a jar of expensive lotion. One day that German dude will get what he deserves for giving me mini mani and making me spend money I just don't have to spend.... Errgggg
