Single Girl Swag Part III

There is an end in sight! Always, Always Always Remember that and DON'T even forget it!

No matter how bad things may seem they will get better and there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I know this for myself and have lived it for the past two months. When the break up and losing the baby happened i thought my world was done, finished over with.... Then something in my head snapped and said no so fast my friend.

Thats when i realized WTF am i doing?!?! Why am i going to let a man have SO much control over me in such a short amount of time? I had become what i dreaded for years... DEPENDENT on a man. Now for some this is okay for their lifestyle, situation or whatever the case may be but for me not so much. I like having my own job to occupy my time, my own money ( i HATE asking people for things) and my own freedom.Thats when i decided NO MORE men for a while. I need HAVE to get my head on straight and get myself together. 

Thats when this whole journey of Single Girl Swag started. It went from me being at the lowest point i have EVER been in in my life to where i am at now. Its not big adjustments but hey every little thing counts. To update you all i have had a job for about a week now... YES! i got the job at longhorns! I also registered for my GED process and have orientation on the 13th of this month to get that started. Also my cousins AMAZINGLY WONDERFUL girlfriend is selling me her car for a really good price so things are working out! Im finally getting to where i need to be and getting my life back. As for my mental and emotional state im doing better each and every day. Im in no hurry to get into another relationship but if someone comes along i like enough to change that then im willing to give it a shot but i REFUSE to give up what i have worked so hard to get. It may not be this easy for some but just remember to give yourself enough time.

All wounds will heal in time and if you work hard and put your mind to it everything will fall into place.

Until Next Time...Keep Swagging On My Single Friends!

Freedom Comes With A Price

Freedom comes with a price.... no matter what form its in you pay that price.

In my case the price would be a few lonely nights and a broken heart but im healing slowly and moving on. This whole experiance has made me realize who my true friends are and ive made some pretty awsome new ones along the way. Its amazing what you can accomplish when you take out the distraction and focus on yourself.

One of my main focuses with my new fount freedom was finding a job and i think im pretty close to getting what i want. I filled out an application online to longhorns on sunday and yesterday i received and email asking me to call the store at my earliest convince. Well i called right away at 10:30 in the morning spoke with the manager and she asked me if i could come in for an interview at 12. It was such short notice but i managed to make it in there in time and it was well worth it because i have a SECOND interview friday at 2 with the MAIN MANAGER of the place. This will also help me accomplish a few more things i had on my to do list such as they give you day one medical, a 401K and a few other benefits. So it works out for me!

If and when i get the job i can start saving up for a car because i refuse to finance a car again. Its just not in my budget right now and if i dont have a car payment i can move out and still have money to myself and insurance would be WAYYYY cheaper since its paid off so the benefits are a plus! Once i get my job and car i can then move on to getting my GED and then starting school and getting my life where i want it to be. Its going to be a little tough but it will soooo be WORTH it in the end.

It maybe a lonely journey getting through starting work and getting a car but it will be very rewarding in the end so when i am ready for a relationship i will have my own $hit and i wont have to depend on someone else. I think it just really makes you feel better when you have your own money, car and etc when dating someone and really boost your self confidence. I will update again as soon as i know something about the job!

My Newest Addiction

Chicken Artichoke & Spinach Flatbread

This my friends is the best appetizer i have ever had in my entire life! I went to outback a week ago with an old girlfriend of mine and she ordered this and told me i had to try it. I will admit at first i was skeptical because im not really a spinach person and i wasn't sure about artichokes but this flat bread is amazing! If only i could find a recipe that comes close to Outbacks flatbread.... I guess for now ill have to go back to get it :)

Blog Dare- Thats When I Got Caught!

Im sure many people have had this happen to them but I KILLED the tooth fairy :(
 

Its a funny story how it happened to, my ex had three small kids all under 8 and two of them had started to lose their baby teeth. Well one day after their momma dropped them off with us the middle one said she had lost a tooth at school but they couldn't find it anywhere so she was worried the tooth fairy wouldn't visit her.

Some how i manage to come up with the idea of writing the tooth fairy a letter explaining what happened and if we were able to find the tooth we would put it under her pillow for pick up haha. I swear kids can really put you on the spot sometimes but it worked for her and we wrote the letter and their dad decided to hang it above the door instead of letting her put it under her pillow....BAD IDEA!

I should really get a bad "daddys girlfriend" award for this one.... We BOTH forgot to put her money under her pillow and didn't realize it until 6 am the next morning! I reminded him and he automatically jumped out of bed and went to their room and ATTEMPTED to grab the letter without being noticed but he so totally got BUSTED by the oldest one and he kept telling the middle one that Daddy was the tooth fairy. We were able to do the best of damage control we could explaining that daddy was the tooth fairy's helper and she was really busy that night so she gave daddy the money to give to her but that my friends is how we got caught.
