My Single Mom Life

Ok, I am trying to calm myself down, so I'll talk about other stuff.
I got a really late payment in tonight, so I'll be able to go to my doc appointment on Friday and pay for that, the prescription, get some more groceries, and take care of any other expenses that come up.
*phew*
I was seriously stressing over paying for the doc on Friday because the payment wasn't here yet, and then the crap with the school happened, so not a whole lot got done here today that I originally planned to do. (Sorry Brett! I will try to do it tomorrow)
But the money issue is settled, (yay!) and I'll deal with the school tomorrow.

I've already gotten the teens most of what they wanted for Christmas, the video games they asked for to play on the xbox, and the Wow games, now I just have to get what they need.
I'll be combining the money that my Mom and Dad mailed out yesterday, along with what Aunty Heather and whatever other relatives decide to send, along with the next 2-3 child support payments, to get the boys the rest of their stuff.
This month's disability payment comes in on the same day as a big doctor's appointment on the 10th, so I'm sure I'll be paying out the wazoo come next Wednesday.
But I know I'll be ok financially for the holidays, especially if I get some more work between now and xmas, and even if I get money late, like right before xmas, I'll brave the crowds to go get what they need and want.
Both the teens need some more shorts, a new pair of pants each, some more socks, boxers and shirts, and new winter hoodies or jackets, whichever they prefer.
Sebastian prefers hoodies, and Mark wants a big thick flannel jacket like mine that I got from an ex-boyfriend years ago.
The ex-bf was 6 foot 4, about 225lbs, and a wrestler, so this flannel jacket is enormous, but it is oh so freaking warm and comfy, I love it, and Mark claims it every winter.
He's been wearing mine for the last couple of years, it's ok, it's not like I go many places, so I don't ever really wear my jacket anyway.
As for extra wants, Mark wants some WoW gold (in-game money to use) and Sebastian wants a new comforter for his bed.
A big blue one he said.
It has to be full or queen size, either baby or medium blue, and super soft he said, so I'll do my best to get him a big blue comforter, and I think my sis already agreed to get Mark the WoW gold.
Then the Christmas shopping will be done, and maybe next weekend we'll put up the tree and decorations.
I might have to get some new lights for the tree, not sure yet, I'll find out when I get the tree and stuff out of my closet and start the decorating.
Hopefully Shahiro the kitten-sized 3 year old kitteh, will be nice and leave all the decorations alone this year.
Last year, she thought my really old plush Santa that my Dad had when he was a kid, was her personal play toy.
She'd grab it in her teeth and drag it all over the house.
It was funny because the Santa is bigger than she is, and she'd go crazy trying to grab it with her teeth and drag it around the house to play with because of how big it is, so she'd bite it, drag it, drop it, and have to start all over again.
No matter where I put it, even on a shelf, she'd do whatever she had to do to get it, and when she finally got it where she wanted it, she'd curl up and sleep with it.
I have no idea why she likes it so much, but it's very old so I need her to stop playing with it, I don't want it to get ruined by the stupid kitteh.

Ok, I have emails and other stuff to take care of, I will update on what happens with the school after I talk to the principal tomorrow.
Later days!
