Love The Weekends (Happy Friday)

I gotta say every Friday I wake up with a good feeling knowing that, first off I get to wear whatever I want to work, jeans, flip flops, and a sweater! I don't have to worry about find the right outfit, for how I'm feeling, or what kind of shoes I want to torture myself in. That is a great feeling. Second reason, is I know that when I get home after work I can kick of my flip flops, and enjoy my night, weather it be doing my math homework ( fun I know) or watching a movie, and cooking a good din din. Well I don't really cook, but now that my kitchen is twice the size I find myself wanting to cook more. Beware, because I'm not the greatest cook, but I do know how to follow directions :) I've been wanting to cook some chicken, but after I eat my brothers BBQ its really hard to except that mine will be nowhere as good as his.

My plans this weekend consists of enjoying the warmer weather, and unpacking boxes. Yes I have boxes left, and I feel like it will be never ending. I did get through about 6 of them last night, but I still have a garage with about 15 in there. My house is empty, and I sorta like it like that. Maybe I should just throw everything out that's in those boxes..... I'm sure there are some things I need, and that I will miss, but I've gone over a week without them, so why not a lifetime? Let me think that one through a little...

Next Tuesday will be an exciting day for me :) I will already be 20 weeks into the pregnancy, and I get to find out if a boy, or girl has been making me feel like crap this whole time. Its all starting to get so real, and I will be sending out text messages to my people, and let them know what I will be expecting. The weird thing is I really would like to have a girl, but I have a feeling I could be carrying a boy. All I know is that whatever I'm having I just want a happy healthy baby :) With parents like Eddie and Myself, I'm hoping for a tall child, that is goofy, fun, and loving. Most likely will be a monster, but hey I was one as a child, and I always say that Karma is a B****. That's another thing I need to stop doing... I swear way to much.

Well happy Friday to all, and enjoy the sun :)

Easter Celebrations

I always love getting together with my family :) It seems each time I get together with them, I enjoy myself and the company that they all provide. We all celebrated at my brothers, and sister in laws house. Great food, great laughs, and yes a sunburn on my forearms from the amazing sun yesterday.  I woke up this morning feeling refreshed and content with my life.

I'm a busy body and constantly moving around, and yes I sometimes will complain about how I don’t get time to myself, and the day is never long enough to get everything done.....but I wouldn’t change that for anything. My busyness comes with a lot of gifts. I have a great family, and friends, a caring and loving boyfriend, and a job that I feel good about going to every day. I appreciate the challenges I face due to the fact that I will only learn and grow from them.

My Hot Mess

Hello,

I've decided to start a blog. Weird I know, but I've become inspired since my life has been going through so many changes, and to be honest its sorta freaking me out! That's why I decided to name my blog "Jean's Hot Mess." Reason being I'm confident of my self, and hotness, but I'm still a mess at the same time. If you know me, you know what I mean :)

I never would have though I would be in the situations that I'm in at this time in my life. I feel like I have a job of a 35 yr old, and  a well educated person. I do have some education, but an AA is not a huge accomplishment on my list, considering my very competitive co-work is well into his 40s and has way more education than me. I'm working on the school thing. it looks like I will finally have my BA in 2015 from Cal State East Bay. Seems so far away, but I know its what I need to do to make myself more valuable in the job market.

My personal life is even crazier right now. I'm 18 weeks pregnant as of now, and I still am getting sick every morning... My doctor tells me " Oh that means your baby is really Healthy" I'm thinking... whatever, I'm sick and it sucks....  I have not gained any weight, but again my doc is telling me that is probably from eating better, and the fact I'm not tossing back a few anymore.  I'm just waiting for that "magical bliss" that people talk about when they are pregnant. Where is it, because I'm not a happy camper....

Eddie and I also moved into a nice 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom home. Eddie purchased a cherry wood changing table, and matching blanket box, that i love. So I'm looking forward to getting my nursery together in time for the baby.

I'm happy that I get to be around some good friends, and family this weekend, because I need it! Moving was tough, but we did it, and we are both very relieved to be in a much better living situation.

I'll keep up with the blog, and keep you all posted on the exciting upcoming events in my life, because I'm honestly feeling like a hot mess!!!!
