Back to School

My gazillion dollars in tuition, books and fees has been paid. I have finished shamelessly begging to be let in my last 2 classes and got my .edu email problem, that I ignored most of my undergrad life, fixed for good. I have my paper, binders, pens and hi-lighters. Praxis II has been scheduled and prayers are needed now to insure my passing on September 12th. I am 2 semesters and a summer away from teaching some kindergarten hellions. Thank God!

Now, I can sit back and relax on this Fab Friday since I'm off work. This closet still isn't done but I make deadlines just to break em so no biggie. I noticed one of the electronic billboards had an ad for a free consultation from the closet makeover people so I may entertain the thought of calling them up "just to see".

I'm going to get a haircut at 3:00. I used to have it fairly short (a little above my shoulders) then I let it grow pretty long but now I'm just tired of it. I have to wear it up for work so I need something that'll fit in a pony tail but I also want something that just doesn't lay there when it's down. I trust T so I'm sure whatever she comes up with will be great.

Cleaning Out the Closet

I love this closet. Mine is not quite that big but pretty close. I love how everything is tucked away but the downside to that is not being able to see what you've got. Plus I have severe ADD and would work myself into a fit trying to find a pair of shoes I haven't worn in months. I still haven't finished organizing mine but I have everything ready to get started. Hiring someone else to do it is looking better every day.

Wishes

I want to be in a chair here

while drinking these

Oh my God I cannot handle working until 2 am ! I used to be quite the night owl, then I turned into the 8-5er and hated it but this 2 am shit is not gonna fly for this chick at all. The issue is, I have 24 credit hours to take to get my teaching certificate and I want to do it as fast as possible. So, working a normal 8-5 job will not work with that schedule. Plus, the great state of Louisiana is still in a hiring freeze until the fiscal year ends in June so unless I want to work somewhere for crap pay, I have no other choices. (Thank you Bobby f-ing Jindal! And you wonder why college graduates are moving out of LA as soon as they finish)

On the bright side, I made decent money event though it was slow.

Kitchen issues

I want an island like this but in a darker color. My kitchen is stainless, black and red. I don't have much counter space at all and what I do have stays so cluttered because I don't have cabinet space either or any room to put more cabinets so the pot rack could help a little. I've been trying to re-do the kitchen forever and it's frustrating. I've been meaning to de-clutter the counters but I just have so much stuff that I can't get rid of anything. I have that issue all over the house too, the office and my closet being the main 2 problems. I need to learn to simplify when I do my spring cleaning.
