Maine was good, things are bad


Well, do not know where to start really. Both of my parents are unemployed and neither are doing well with their relationships. My dad's girlfriend broke things off with him, because he quit a job that was making him miserable. I do not mind much because she thought she was too good for us anyway. But I hate for him to be sad and alone. It was nice for him to have someone. Then my mom and Ray are on the cusp, he is only really good for her emotionally and not in any other way. I think he is just a user in every sense of the word. Then mom got laid off last week so that does not help her situation at all.
I went to my aunts wedding in Maine this past weekend and it was very nice. The countryside there is beautiful. We saw some lighthouses, including the one in Forrest Gump (see the picture), and ate some great food, walked in the woods a little. The wedding went very well, unbfortunately it rained the entire day but the wedding was beautiful nonetheless and besides they say that its good luck to rain on our wedding day. It was a very small wedding only about 30 people so it was very intimate and nice.
I have quit my job and that is good. But it is boring sometimes and I do not like not having my own money to do what I please with. School seems to be doing well. I got a 91 on my first lab test. I am hoping for similar results on my 2nd lecture test and my math test. The math test I should know about tomorrow when I go back to school. I am also going to see the advisor tomorrow to figure out which classes I want to take next semester, so I will be prepared to go to either the radiographer program or get ready for U of L and dental hygiene.
I would have liked to take Buddy to the park today but it was sort of cold. I was thinking of going to mom's for dinner but she is not feeling well. So, I am just wasting as much time today as possible. Some of the girls are going out to drinks tonight at 9 but I cannot go. One I have no money, two ill miss my show at 10, but three (the most weight-bearing one) I am taking this 24 hour pee test and I have to keep my pee for 24 hours in a container and I cannot very well go out anywhere and collect my pee and carry this container around. So, anything I do today has to be short lived.
Carolyn has been induced today, her baby is not recieving the nutrients it needs. She will be 3 weeks early and when Carolyn went to the doctor 2 weeks ago the baby only weighed 4 lbs. So, I suppose the baby will be living in an incubator in the NICU for a little while before going home. I hope that things turn out well for her and the delivery goes fine.
That is all for now, hoping things all turn around and end up for the best.

i am done

So, today sucked. I had a glucose test (and a few others ran with all the blood they took) and the test took 4 hours, I couldnt eat for 13 hours, and they stuck me like 7 times. I look like a heroin addict. Seriously, I have bruises and puncture holes on both my arms, its ridiculous. I am just now feeling normal. All day I have been so weak, and I ate two meals in like 3 hours! But my body is finally reachieving homeostasis.
Speaking of, I have finished 3 weeks of classes and took my first A&P test. I think that I did well there were only 5 questions I was unsure of and there were two extra credit questions, so I am feeling pretty good about it. I was the 3rd person done with my test but thats just how I am with tests. I know the answer or I dont and so I answer and move on.
One more small thing, ok so not so small. I am putting in my two weeks on Sunday, I cannot work there anymore. I am going to tell them its because of all these health issues and school. But thats only part of the problem. I just cant work with Chase anymore, even if they day is fine with him there after I leave it just goes so horrible and I feel terrible. Today we talked, and its been a month since I called things off if he couldnt be what I needed from him, and today he reassured me that he is not going to be able to change his mind. That its not me and its not us, that he just cant be an us right now. I cant live with this. And the only way for me to get over it is to distance myself from him. He still breaks my heart everyday and I just cant continue to cry over this anymore. He cant be what I need and I cant move on looking at him every few days. I have to leave there and the time has come. At least I have my JoJo to help me with money until and if I get another job.
