In Case You didn't Know...





I'm stupid. Yep... that's right... in every essence of the word. I got a test back today in my criminal investigation class and ended up getting a B+. How STUPID can I be? A B+! Com'on! I am so upset at myself for doing so horrible on that test. To make matters worse, this class is the EASIEST class ever... and I still get a B. Dumb Dumb Dumb.





I just can't get over it... seriously thinking of dropping the class because of how horrible my grade is. :o(





I figured I would post more pictures of Maddie. We celebrated Grandma Kreh's Birthday... here are a few from then...


She was trying to sleep...

Next time...

The next time you go to a bank... keep this in mind!

50 Things I Have Learned By Being A Bank Teller
1. I know everyone in the world, so I never need to ask for ID.
2. "I'll be with you in one moment," means "Come right up here into my business and breathe your popcorn breath in my face for a while."
3. Every bank in the world steals money from its customers, particularly from the ones that don't keep a transaction register.
4. I'm always kidding when I tell people a check is not any good. I'm a good kidder.
5. I know the balance of every account at the bank.
6. I am at the bank just because I feel like it. My window isn't actually open when I say, "May I help you?"
7. I know everyone's account number.
8. I know everyone's address.
9. I don't understand how banking works.
10. I have to do whatever the person who gave my customer the check said.
11. I don't know how to count.
12. I don't know how to add.
13. I don't know what the date is.
14. I can read everyone's mind.
15. If I ask for your social, Im trying to steal your identity.
16. I know when every new coin will be arriving.
17. I know how much everyones bills are for the month.
18. We don't sell stamps.
19. We are just here for fun on most holidays, we're not really open. We love it when you rub it in.
20. When someone asks how you want your cash back, your suppose to wait until I have it counted it back to you.
21. Apparently people have different definitions of commercial.
22. Your time is more important than mine. I have no life. When you show up 5 minutes before we close to make 10 deposits or open a new account, we don't mind.
23. Everyone with the Bank name tag is related.
24. I am also your secretary.
25. We love to place holds on your checks for fun. We are the only bank that does it.
26. 13 hours and 10 minutes is not enough time for people to do their business.
27. I am in charge of the never ending popcorn, smarties, lollipops, and coffee.
28. It is polite to ignore someone when they say hello.
29. It is my fault when someone cuts you in line. I should have been paying attention to you and not your money.
30. I know what a checkingdepositwithdrawal for savings is.
31. Being rude should make me want to help you more.
32. I am not really human. I should never make mistakes.
33. It is okay to walk into someone's office when their door is shut.
34. I have a secret collection of licenses in my cubby.
35. I can't hear. I need you to ding the bell 5 times in a row.
36. The sign that says "Next Window Please" is just for decoration.
37. I make people wait on purpose. It's fun to make them mad.
38. I know everyone's PIN number to their ATM card. 38. Fraud doesn't really happen to anyone. Therefore, I should give everyone exactly what they want.
39. The coin machine is my favorite thing to do.
40. The bank gives out free poinsettias at Christmas. We order them for you, not the bank. Display only means whatever you want it to mean.
41. Please and Thank You are forbidden words at the bank. We hate to hear them.
42. Checking and Savings deposit slips are EXACTLY the same, we just like all the pretty colors and wanted to make them more colorful. Marking through the word savings changes the deposit slip completely!
43. When I tell someone the same thing over and over, I'm just doing it for fun. I like to waste my breath.
44. We will break the rules for anybody as long as you gripe for more than 10 minutes..
45. I am a professional coin counter. Even when the machine is broken, I will count the coin for you by hand!
46. I am psychic. When you call I can recognize your voice and pull up your information automatically. My computer is voice activated. It's all that fancy technology we have.
47. You don't have to tell me that you've been with the bank for 50 years. I can tell.
48. Even after 5 years, I am a new teller to anyone who has never seen me before. If I've never met you, I have no idea what I'm doing.
49. I make the rules for the banking industry. You can blame everything on me!
50. I'm an idiot.

Depression is horrible. I have suffered from it for many years, however, it feels worse and different right now. I feel lost in my on body. I feel like there isn't anything I can do... except wait. I'm tired...
I'm tired of crying... of hoping, of wishing, wanting, longing...

Work has me down in the dumps. I swear, I must have a "walk all over me" sign on my back that I didn't know about. I feel like a slave to Tahirah... as she makes me go get her ice and grab things off the printer, just because "she doesn't want to." Things will change there... very soon.

I have severe hyperhidrosis. It happens all the time, no matter what I do to prevent it. For those of you who know me, you know I have it. It's no secret to anyone. It's embarrassing and makes me want to crawl in a hole.

I was supposed to be finished with school in December, however my manager doesn't want me to take summer classes. She can't "give me the days off" that I need for school... well then why during my interview when I first started, when I mentioned that I am a FULL TIME STUDENT did you not tell me then that you wouldn't work around my school schedule? Why did you say, "well... you are part time, so we will be able to work around whatever you need. Just let us know in advance so we can make the schedule around it." IT'S 2 MONTHS IN ADVANCE!! Again... empty promises... My job has been full of them... from the first day... don't know who to trust when they say anything to me anymore.

My allergies are acting up really bad right now. I'm tired, I'm cranky, I'm depressed...

...welcome to my world...

i just found out some news today... some news that hurts my heart so bad that I just want to crawl in a hole and bury myself. i can't concentrate on anything right now... it just hurts...

Madeline Rose






Madeline Rose has arrived. My niece was born on LEAP DAY.... 6lbs 13oz... 19" long... beautiful brown hair...



Uncle Brian does GREAT with Madeline.
I got her while she was pooping... NIIIICE

Proud Mom of #2!

She is precious though...

There was a slight scare at the hospital yesterday when Madeline couldn't get past the mucous in her throat and couldn't breathe. Mom and nurses were on it and everything is going fine... it was quite the scare though! Keep Madie in prayers as she continues to grow and get past the first couple of weeks!!
