Nothin worse

UGH

I hate having idead and not enough money to carry them out. Lemme tell you, it sucks.

I ahve 2 rugs on teh go that are at a standstill for lack of teh funds to get wool right now. Ive had a beautiful idea for another rug that has been stewing forever becuase i dont have the cash for wool for it (plus i dont have enough burlap right now...)

And now sherry got me a sewing machine for xmas (small one) and ive been wanting to try quilting for a long time but again i dont ahve the cash for material right now.

UGh.

I keep telling myself we will be caught up in march (over and over) but when you have concepts and ideas waiting it is so hard to be patient. Its like being pregnant and wanting to meet your baby... expect I want to meet a few rugs and a beautiful quilt.

I am always thinking about opening and etsy shop for fun, and I often think about opening a little ebay store for used books (so many pass my hands you see) but I never actually go through with it... Maybe I should? But would it cost me mroe than I make? and there are 53 million people plus doing this... what would set my little webspace apart? I get so overworked with details.

Ill make it my mission today to look into these things... MUST DOOOO.

Here is a slightly rhetorical question...

that is slightly not...

I AM NOT PLANNING A TRIP TO COURT (yet.. mwahaha... jk) BUT...

Say the person paying child support to the other person for one child (lets call him Mr. I... No too obvious... HAHA Mr. A paying Ms. B), records a musical cd and the cd is picked up to be sold in stores for $15.00 a pop. And Mr. A decides to donate the proceeds to a very good charity would the money from the sale of the c.d.s be considered income??? And therefore should it be taken into consideration for child support?

Bah

My daughter's donor (who I have nothing nice to say about besides he is brave to be wearing heavy guyliner around here...) pays me support to the tune of (more money that anyone else's donor pays aparently.) X dollars calculated by his expense report (including, like, $60.00 monthly haircuts etc HAHA) and his income tax information in which he only included income from his techie work. When I was feeling angry and vindictive and tired of fighting over visitation that he didnt actually want, just wanted to fight over recently... (vinDICKtive.. nvm...)... I was going to take him back to court to have arrangements put in stone instead of "as agree'd apon by teh two parties". If I had to do that I was going to go for a recount in maintanence. Dude travels EVERYWHERE with his "music" plays bars and clubs and coffeehouses at top pay. Well known fact FEW musicians (not him) ever report such income as income unless called on it, which is happening more and more. I was going to call him on it. (see the absolute distaste i have for him and his squabbles and bullying?)
Then I decided to give him 1 ONE more chance and we settled on an agreement. Much mudslinging and snarkiness abound of course. and so I saved us all a trip to court. I dont NEED more money, just a way to make that money grubbing tight wad suffer for his bullying and general assholiness.

Which brings up my thought. As soon as I read he was donating the proceeds to charity the other day (He posted it EVERYWHERE) I knew that there were 2 reasons to do it. number 1) impress whatever chick/ news article he was trying to impress and B) *DRUMROLL* to avoid having to give anything to ME for MY DAUGHTER. He is just that type of person.

So teh general question (whoever is still hanging on... Kim??? Deb??? AT LEAST?!?!??!!?!??? guyyyyyyssss??? hello??? *cheep cheep cheep* anywho

can a person paying support avoid paying it by donating his or her (equal oportunity here people) earnings to a charity???

:S

I HATE NOT SLEEPING IN MY OWN BED!

That said, Last night was teh second night in a row that I didnt get to sleep in my own bed at all. Bed time comes and then Donavan wakes up like clockwork.

Kev is working today so my plan is to change some kid's rooms around. Maybe if Donavan is in the back bedroom then when he wakes up at bedtime he'll be able to cry himself back to sleep without being too loud for kevin. I will put the baby monitor in there and one out here so I'll be able to hear him. Samara can have he big bedroom. Then she will HAVE to sleep there. My only real reservation about giving her that room is how close it is to my bed... I didnt want any chance of her waking up and coming out ;) But she is gone on sleepovers sometimes and I can wait for a sleepover to be noisy at night ;)
So I am off to check Facebook right quick then my little dude and I ahve some work ahead of us.
