I've started back to school. I took a 2 week leave because a doctor said my daughter had scabies. When the bumps showed up on my fiancé and I also (just on our hands, on her chest/side/underarm area) I went to another doctor and he automatically agreed with the first doctor. Since I work with the public at school, I couldn't be there and have a potentially contagious condition.
Except I'm pretty sure the doctor was wrong. We had none of the symptoms (crazy itching, "burrows" under the skin, bumps that look like blisters) of scabies. The only thing that made it similar to scabies was that it was passed from her to him and from her to me. Thursday I went to a different doctor, she looked at my hand for about 30 seconds and said it was eczema. I'm pretty sure eczema isn't contagious and according to an instructor at school who has it, this isn't it. Whatever it is the doctor cleared me to go back to school. They gave me a cream to put on my hands twice a day (a corticosteroid) and told me to use a low dose cortisone on the baby. I don't know. Between us we saw 4 doctors. Pediatrician said scabies. Immediate Care Center doc #1 heard me say that Pediatrician said scabies, automatically agreed and sent me on my way. VA doctor said I don't know but it doesn't look like scabies. Immediate Care Center doc #2 said eczema. So, who knows.
Either way I'm back in school. Which is miserable but at the same time it gives me something to do and keep myself busy so I supposed it's good. We're allowed to accept tips so every now and then I get a little pocket money. I'm to the point where I'm just so fed up with the whole thing. I've been in school since June of '09. If I hadn't taken my leave earlier this year I would be graduating next month. Instead I'm graduating in February. Which means about 4 more months of working for no pay. That's basically what we do.
The school is so disorganized. One person at this location will tell you something but someone at another location will tell you something completely different. It's just...very ugh. I'll be happy when I get my 1500 hours and can say BYE BYE! I'm going to have to do a few 40 hour weeks to make up my hours though. BOO.
I guess that's enough whining, what do you think? How about some pics of a project I recently finished?
A hat I originally started as something for myself but as you can see, it ended up A LOT smaller than I had intended lol. It fits Sam perfectly though (all of her curly mop is tucked up in the hat).

Garnier Fructis Style Sleek & Shine Blow Dry Perfector - UPDATE!
Here are some new pics of my hair. Blow Dry Perfector is supposed to last through 7 shampoos and BzzAgent asked for pictures of your hair 4 shampoos in. I thought I would post them here too :) I'll also be posting some after the 7 shampoos.
Bumpy Road
I meant to post an update and talk a little about a few things that have been going on lately and then today I had a couple of huge, horrible panic attacks and ended up spending the night in the ER. That ruined all of my plans.
I have a couple of things planned for the next few posts. I won the Sedona Lace 88 Matte Palette from Katiengo* and as soon as it gets here I'm going to have pictures posted and try a few things out. I don't have a super awesome camera and my skin/hair isn't as awesome as most reviewers (not to mention I'm just starting out with the whole more than one color thing lol) but I will be honest.
I also won the TRIA Skin Clarifying System from Hello Beauty and want to show everyone what it's about and how it works on me.
I'm trying to get some medication issues out of the way before I can do anything, so bear with me. ♥
A year? It's been that long?
Wow. It's been a whole year since I've used this blog. I keep forgetting about it! How horrible. I think it's because I don't really know anyone who actually uses blogger. Hmmm.
I wish I could sum up everything that has happened but a year is a long time. Samantha is huge, Katie is still beautiful. Patrick and I are still together despite a rough patch early this year. I'm still in school but I've only got about 5 or 6 more months before I graduate. I switched campuses. The one I was at before was a miserable, horrible place and I've heard it's only gotten worse.
I want to make my blog something useful. Something that people want to read. I don't really know how though. For now I'm going to see if I can find a BB app for blogger. Make it easier and I will use it lol. I'm in love with my Blackberry but I wish it had GPS. We have the 8520 and of course, it doesn't. However the 8530 does. Guess whose luck that is?
I keep getting random hot flashes. If I turn the fan on, I get too cold. Wah wah, right?
I think I've found a way to post on here fairly simply from my phone. Not quite as easy as Tumblr but easy enough. Let me test it.
