ummm..August anyone?

We are full swing into August. Emilee started her junior year (11th gr) of high school yesterday and she and BF Nicole said it seemed like summer never happened, just like they had a weekend! They were both excited and happy about their first day, their teachers, classes and the friends in them! I am posting some pics of Emilee's first day of school yesterday. She is the only bright spot in my day right now!

Since I last wrote, Em's "friend" Amanda created DRAMA and said she didn't want to be Emilee or Nicole's friend anymore. Both girls spent the good part of a night and day crying, they were so hurt! If I ever see that little bitch, I swear. Little punk!

Anyway, Emilee did sell lemonade a little this summer to get school clothes and stuff, but didn't go to camp this year. Neither she or Rachael wanted to go. Em did go down and visit Tia, Rob, Rachael & Eden for a few weeks...it was about 120 down there - so hot they couldn't even go in the pool in the daytime! They would go around 10pm!

Kaela moved out - back with Gramma...again. Where she can save and NOT PAY RENT or food or anything! Of course they made it sound like it was for 'our' benefit. Whatever makes you feel better about yourself! She screwed us gangster style! She was paying a little rent and had the master bedroom. So the only plus is that Fernie and I have a room of our own now. It was already difficult enough to make it on $1008 a month and now Fernie's benefits have been cut and we have to make it work on $920 for the 3 of us! Oh yeah, I feel the benefit Kaela! 5 years almost to the date since she did the exact same thing, except she wasn't paying rent then. She also left all her crap here, dresser, bed, boxes, crap that's not boxed, etc! So now She, Gramma and Margaret are moving down to Newport and nobody said a word to me, I had to confront Kaela. AND now she says she is going to take this computer, even though she has a brand new computer that hooks up to everything including her printer! I asked her to leave it till Christmas and we would either have a replacement by then or we'd be out of luck and have to deal with it! She said NO! I can hear Gramma saying 'you better get it now or you're not gonna get it back'! To top it off, Emilee was told that she'd have online homework every single week, she can use computers at school if they are available, other than that, we have to make an appt at the library when they have one avail! Kaela said that she'd bring me discs so I could get our stuff off it. Fernie and I have tons of docs on it, some for each of our court cases, medical stuff, Emilee stuff, not too mention a bazillion pictures! We told her to give us a couple of days notice so we could have all her stuff ready for her. SOOO much bullshit. Oh, you bet I'll have it ready, at the edge of the garage so she and whatever help she brings can get it loaded and get the hell outa town! Again, so much bullshit...I'm up to my eyeballs.

PEACE!
