I'm sorry!

WOW! I guess I've stopped keeping up with this now that I am pretty much living with Douglas...maybe I'll only be able to write every few days from now on. That's okay tho I still have my paper journal to start writing in too.

Valentine's was just another day for me. I feel as if that's what it should be. But, I worked that night and Douglas worked all day. I thought we had agreed to not celebrate it but unfortunately we both bought some cheesy gifts for each other lol. I feel as if V-day is just overrated. We should love our significant others every day not just one...and the real meaning of v-day is about love and friendship not really the love you have for just one person but the love you have for EVERYone you love in your life. But oh well, I look forward to this cheesy love day again in June for the Brazilian love day I guess...

Sunday...ahh Sunday. I love this day of the week. Nothing to do but be lazy. We slept in until 12 and got ready. We went and ran errands and such then went to dinner and party as usual. Then it was bed time early.

Monday--Oh busy day! I went to the craft store because I have been meaning to start mine and Douglas' scrap book for ages now. But...I needed scissors, stamp ink, and a few more whoohaaas to get it all started. I got 5 pages done...which takes forever when you're stamping, but they turned out GREAT! Then Julio finally woke up, he is Douglas' roomate. We went to Comcast to finally get high speed internet and the Brazilian globol channel. Then we went to best buy to see if his computer was fixed. Then it was time for work at Unos which sucked because it happens to be the WORST time of the month and I had to close when I was not supposed to.

Tuesday- well it's just started so idk really what's going to happen and not sure if I'll get to write for today anyways. But, I watched Barrett from 6:00 - 8:30 and dropped him off at day care. Then I headed into town, picked up breakfast and came to Douglas' apartment and woke him up hehe. Then we ate breakfast and now I'm sitting here when I should be up getting ready lol...I have my orientation for TGI Friday's FINALLY today at 1:30! It will be great!

Anyways, hopefully I won't go so long before posting again...now that I have internet at both places I partially live at it should be much easier. But I really should get going and getting ready for today! Have a good one!

Sorry a two dayer!

Yesterday started out just normal waking up with Barrett then taking him to day care as usual! Then I drove to Hyannis of coarse where I was able to see my love off to work. Then I got to work cleaning the apartment I kinda share! I cleaned the whole thing which 3 guys live in, except for the other guys bathroom and bedroom! It felt good and made me feel soo much better after I did that.

After cleaning it was almost time for Douglas to be home so I hopped in the shower...and got ready for him. He so graciously satisfied my hunger when he walked in with broccoli and cheddar soup with cheddar cheese melted on top just like I like it and spicy shrimp and chicken pasta from TGI Fridays! We ate lunch and I started his laundry while he took a shower cuz he smelled like Fridays of coarse!

We finished the laundry ran some errands and then went out to a movie! We saw The Uninvited and it was pretty good! Then it was time for coffee and bed. It was a pretty good day and felt good to be off ALL DAY LONG!

Today---aahhh it hasn't been much of a day! Started off with Barrett as usual. Then went to see Douglas and get my work clothes, make-up, and straightener from the apt. Came back to my sisters and got a shower and ready. Well, yesterday I was looking at car insurance quotes during free time and tried to get a quote for liberty mutual for here in massachusetts because progressive cannot insure me up here and i'm up for renual next month!!!

Well, just now I got a call back from liberty mutual...they infact cannot insure me in Texas but can save me a shit ton of money if I tranfer registration over to Massachusetts! I currently pay 430 bucks a month in Texas with any insurance company because Texas is so strict about accidents.

Well, this agent at Liberty Mutual told me that if I were to transfer my registration over I will only have to pay 167 dollars a MONTH!! HOLY SMOKES! It will however cost between 300 and 400 bucks to transfer, but I will be saving 2400 dollars a year on my car insurance! &*& I can keep my Texas Drivers License!

Oh well, I'm super excited and will transfer over as soon as I can. &*& now it is time to pick Barrett back up from day care so that the baby sitter will have someone to watch this afternoon haha! Anyways have a good one and take care!

OMG!

All I can say is OH MY GOD! I'm sorry it's been longer than a day. But, truth is I don't know where to start. It just seems as things start to get better and look up they completely fall apart again. Why is life like that?! Why do we take one step forward and two steps back...it's so hard to keep moving forward when that's always happening!!!

Well, the night before last was possibly one of the WORST nights of my life. As I am getting in my car to go home from Douglas' apt at 3 am my phone is going off. My first thought is it's my sister pissed that I am not home yet. But, no it's my cousin, Amber, calling.

Amber and I have been more like sisters our entire life. We even were dressed alike as if we were twins. But, why was she calling at 3 AM?! In fact it wasn't her, it was her mom at first and she was in tears! So I said goodbye to Douglas and headed home. She told me Amber really needed to talk to me really bad! So I said okay put her on!

She said, "I want you to know that I took some pills. I feel as if I am a burden to everyone around me. I am tired of being treated like shit by my father and him not helping my mom pay my health/car insurance and car payments like he was court ordered to do. I feel that if I am not here my mom won't struggle anymore and maybe guys wouldn't have a girl to use anymore."

I didn't know what to think, do or say! I've been down this road too many times before with my best friend and in the end she's gone forever. I am shocked that Amber would ever do this! She's not a burden and in fact would be a burden if she were to be gone! I'm so glad that her ex, John, called Aunt Jeannie and told her. I'm glad that Amber called me to help her through this time. But, I really hope this is the one and only time she will ever even think about doing this to everyone around her.

We really did almost lose her. If she hadn't gone to the hospital to get her stomach pumped she probably wouldn't be here. The fact that I can't physically be there for her is really eating at me. I've always been able to just pick up and get to whoever was in need in my family and now I live far too far away to be able to do that. I would catch a flight but don't have the money or the time off to do so!!

Well, at least she's safe. Just please say a prayer for her and my family as we go through this dark time. On another note, Douglas and I love eachother SOOO much but we've been fighting almost daily. I don't know what to do about that. I don't know what to do with the jealousy that he has. I don't know how to show him he can trust me after all that's happened. I don't know where to begin other than to go back to a time when we were happiest and start over from there and forget everything else that has happened.

We will work through this I know, because we just love eachother too much. Every relationship has it's dark moments. I cannot wait to see him tonight to give him a big hug and see his smile. He's having a tough time as well, for he misses home. Home is Brazil and I can't keep him here if that's what he wants. But, if he does go I will miss him very much and be devistated. I'm pretty sure that I would wait for him if that's what he wanted!

Sorry for it being so long. But, this needed to be off my chest.

Have a good one!

SUNNNDAY!

Well, it's the day off...not much of one tho. We headed to Friday's because I had an interview for a job as a server. It went wonderful and I have a meeting tomorrow! Pretty much have the job. Then we drove to Falmouth again to pick up Douglas' car...Then came home and actually had some rest but I couldn't sleep. I watched Titanic while Douglas slept and then went to my sisters to get some clothes for church. We went to church which was different for me considering it is Catholic and in Portuguese! It was a beautiful church and I did enjoy it. Douglas, Julio (his roomate and best friend) and I all went out to Olive Garden together. Oh my goodness it was delicious! We had the Chicken Gnnokie Soup!!! Then we had the stuffed cheese Ravioli with shrimp! None of us finished it! Anways now it's time for bed. Have a good one!

Busy Saturday

Today was pretty busy...took his car to falmouth for new tires and oil change. Then I went to my sisters to do my laundry and meet the new day care woman. Then it was work at Uno and HAHA closing again. The past like 3 months I have closed almost EVERY SINGLE night I have worked!!!!

I got out of work pretty late and again we went to bed shortly because we needed sleep! Tomorrow was going to be a busy day off!

boring friday

So...Today was normal as always except it was the last day of taking care of the kiddo for hours and hours. He was a pain in the BUTT all day because he took his nap at like 9:00 this morning and only slept for like 45 minutes. I met my sister at Uno for her to pick him up and started work! Again I am closing, at this point I am getting tired of closing SOOO much.

After work Douglas and I went back to his apartment where I stay during the weekends. We went to bed shortly because we had to be up early to take his car to Falmouth. That was the extent of today!

kinda blah day...

I just wanna start out that today was just an alright day for me. Nothing good or bad really happened! Douglas was gone getting some stuff that he needed to get done all day....he went allll over massachusetts. He got back in town about 6:30 and I had to close at Uno...which really sucked butt. I watched the kid after my sister took him to doctor...and all he did was take a nap while she took a nap cuz she was home sick.

Uno was completely dead but I at least got 65 bucks out of the night thank goodness! Then after work I called and called Douglas. He wasn't answering me, this both irritates me and scares me when they don't answer your calls...we can only have two cars parked at his apartment complex so the extra car has to sit in a parking lot far off.

Tonight was an exceptionally warm 7 degree night! HA j/k f-in cold!!! So I drove over there parked in that parking lot and walked my freezin butt all the way to his apartment in the dark at midnight might I add. I get there and he didn't really even aknowledge that I was there...he had been asleep since 8:00. If he had just let me know he was going to sleep I would have left him alone and gone on home.

But, since he neglected to answer my calls or tell me he was just gonna go to bed early tonight I busted my butt to go there to be with him which all we did was argue at first then just go to sleep :( Just was an akward day if you ask me...glad it's over.

G*Nite!
