New Job...Again (Advice??)

Tuesday, April 9, 2013

Yeah its getting old I agree. So here is what has happened. A couple weeks ago I got a call for a job interview for my DREAM JOB (a victims advocate), I applied for this job way back in November...so it was a surprise. I went back and forth a lot, should I interview for a job while I'm pregnant, and not only pregnant but 14 weeks pregnant.
After much deliberation and thought I took the plunge I figured since this was a real job, and a lot more serious then most jobs I have had I had a 50/50 chance of getting the job. Surprise Surprise I got the job and I have resigned from  my old job (thank goodness hated that place).
Now I feel guilty, they have no idea I'm pregnant, the interview was over skype and I haven't met anyone yet. I'm still turning in paperwork and doing some trainings, I feel horrible. I plan on going back to work, but I guess I don't know this is just so out of my norm.
Anyone have thoughts or advice. In other news I am so EXCITED to do this work and start helping people!!!

The First Trimester:)

Wednesday, April 3, 2013


So this will be my first little pregnancy survey. Since I'm done with my first trimester I decided to just kinda go with that instead of doing a weekly one, cause honestly pregnant brain! Hope you enjoy and don't find this to boring :) Below is my "bump" I haven't take a pic in 2 weeks..but i can assure you it looks the same:)



How far along are you? Today I am 15 wks and 3 days

Who was with you when you found out? I was actually by myself, I had a a feeling I needed to take a test...and welp you know the rest!

What kind of pregnancy test did you take? I took the pee on a stick, the digital and the one with the plus or negative. 

How many test did you take? I took seriously...9...

What was your first reaction? HOLY SH*$ ...no I thought it was wrong...so I walked to the NEX and bought a gazillion pee sticks. 

Have you heard baby's heartbeat? Yes I have, it was really creepy at first. We have since then bought a Doppler and I will pull it out every now and then to listen to it.

First pregnancy? Yes it is:)

When did you have your first sonogram? Well here at tripler they don't do your first sonogram until 20 weeks..which I thought was weird (any opinions on this would be great). Since I didn't know when my last menstrual cylce was my Doctor let me get one at 12 weeks, it was really amazing!

When did you first tell someone (besides your partner) you were pregnant? I called family, and told my 2 best friends the day I found out...However it went viral at 15wks.
What single emotion was strongest for you during the first trimester? Pain.
How bad was your morning sickness ? Really bad...and I still have it. I had morning sickness 3 times a day until about 13 weeks, then it went down to about 2x-1x a day. It really has made this pregnancy not be fun. I am constantly tired and hungry cause I don't keep anything down:(
How much weight did you gain in your first trimester? I have gained nothing!!! We shall see how long that lasts.
Do you feel you have a stronger sense of smell? Oh yes, it is so creepy!!! My husband hates it. One night I was resting in the back bedroom and he was in the kitchen. I could smell the tuna sandwich he was making al the way in the back of the house with the doors closed!! Lets just say tuna...bleh
What do you miss about NOT being pregnant? I miss working out, it has been a huge struggle for me. since my morning sickness has been so bad I just don't have the energy for it. I have tried a few times and end up falling asleep...pathetic.
Do you have any names picked out? Yes we have a girls name and some boys names. We don't know if we are going to share or not. 
Any baby shower plans? Nope...since I just moved here and don't know many people.. I don't know if it will happen. Its really crappy and I get really upset about it, but what can you do?
What is the first thing you have bought for baby? Cloth diapers!! Got a really good deal in a co-op and saved a lot of money!!
Best part of being pregnant? You know, there really hasn't been a best part except for the sonogram. Its been pretty crappy besides that. 
Worst part? Morning sickness and the dumb glucose test...yes the idiots made me take it at 8 weeks!! My Doctor was so pisst when she found out they made me take one. I passed... surprisingly, even though I puked my brains out immediately after and almost passed out.
What are you most nervous about? Giving birth, that was a huge reason why I was never going to have kids. I'm really traumatized by the thought of it.
Breastfeed or formula? Breast feed is the plan!
Cloth or disposable? We are going cloth, I know some people think its crazy but we want to save money and this is a way to do it!
What cant you wait for? I'm so excited to find out if its a little girl or a boy!!!

Whale Watching with a blogger:)

Wednesday, February 6, 2013

A few months ago I met a fellow blogger!! Beckie from shes taken a turn for the nurse...you may remember her..her page is currently down but shes amazing!!! She invited my husband and I to go whale watching with her this last weekend and we had such a blast!! Even though we got insane sunburns and didn't see a ton of whales it was still a adventure. Water splashing everywhere and hitting those crazy waves!!

Here are some photos that Beckie got (she used my SD card). Like i said we didn't see to many but we still had a blast!!

Hes a ass..\coun

FOR WARNIN THIS IS A LONG RANT...
So about a month and a half ago we sold my husbands motorcycle...for multiple reasons.
1) traffic here is ridiculous
2) people on this island cant drive and it scares me
3) we could use the extra cash

So we sold the bike to this guy off craigslist. He seemed pretty cool worked in same industry as me (police department). From the start he was kinda a pain but we wanted to sell the car so we dealt with it and once he handed over the cash off he went and we hoped we were done...right?

Nope he would call us a lot....i mean over and over 6x in a row on weekends etc. Why cause he needed help with stuff one time it was he needed help oiling the chain, the other was that he wanted the handbook (for a 14 y ear old bike?), then he called cause it overheated...it was getting really annoying!
He called multiple times and for some reason he only had my phone number it got so bad to the point it was like harassment. I had given him my husbands number but he like refused to talk to him about the issues he was having (which is ridiculous he bought a used bike his SOL on his own right?) well he started to get rude and bossy . Well i decided that i was going to just stop answering because it wasn't my concern and if he was refusing to talk to my husband directly that wasn't my issue!

Well one day during training...about a month and a half after the sale, i received 3 calls..
and 3 voice mails. I was in orientation so i didn't answer...and well i wasn't going to answer because it was him and i didn't sell him the bike my husband did so i just wanted him to leave me alone.
Well....
I listen to the voicemail on my way home from class and well to my surprise he wanted something as usual. He was DEMANDING that i give him the shipping information for the bike because he thinks we stole it and that we were setting him up and that he refused to be apart of this and they wouldn't let him register the bike, they were going to repo it etc.

1) why did he wait a month and a half to register the bike?
2) maybe you should of asked for that when you bought it
3) why are you making accusations?

so...i was like oh god...i don't even know if i have that paper, i mean we moved here in august which was forever ago! Well i listened to the other messages and now hes just being a asshole! Saying i need to stop hiding behind my phone and answer (hello I'm in class) and that he is DEMANDING his money back, he will give the bike back but he wants a refund!! Excuse me umm...NO!

so he then starts texting me, demanding that i give him the shipping info and that he wants his money back ...so i text him back and told him i was at work but i would check for paper when i get home but that i wasn't sure if i had it. If not i am sorry and hope you figure it out...he continues by saying that its not his bike legally and he wants his money back . I explained that the title is in his name and i have nothing to do with this call my husband etc...ughh...well he freaks out on me pretty much saying I'm scared and cant call him...cause he called and i didn't answer! this is not my issue...call my husband!!

so my husband called him when he got off work...ugh and they were arguing etc and my husband explained to him that its not our issue. then he told him not to text me anymore.well the guy was all I'm going to bring my police friends to your house i know where you live bla bla bla...which makes me feel very unsafe! My husband tried to explain to him that in the state of Colorado a title is proof that it isn't stolen as well as 2 other documents we had, and that he felt that he wasn't happy with the bike so he was trying to return it!! which i think is probably the case!!

well even after my husband told him never to contact me again, he text me right after saying that hes proud of how mature i was, and that i hide behind text messages and I'm really mature for not dealing with the issue myself. Also he stated that he couldn't believe i worked in the field because i was immature and irresponsible!!
wtf?? really?? Idk super frustrating i just text him and told him to not contact me again and her wrote back "ok...bye!!!!" what a idiot.

We obviously contacted JAG and they told us we were in the right...so we shall see what happens next.
Its a little annoying not something I'm wanting to deal with at the moment!!
sorry for rant!!

Ginger the Bug

Wednesday, January 16, 2013

So I got a job!
I went through orientation etc and all of that really but a timer on the fact that we need to get another vehicle!!! Am i right? So off we went to search for a car that would be reliable but inexpensive because there really is no need to buy a brand new car! So we decided to go with this...
a 2000 Volkswagen...


sorry the picture is horrible quality but its awesome, rides smoothe and clean on the inside! It has about 75 thousand miles which really isn't that bad! Well it was working great until yesterday...it just crapped out on us....we don't know if its the starter of the clutch. Well this has put a damper in are plans, and since we bought it through a independent seller not a car lot we don't have a warranty so we are back at square one and i am beyond irritated!!!
