PASSED WITH FLYING COLORS!

I made a 96 on my skills test today! Tomorrow and Wednesday, I am doing a ride-along on a fire truck and an ambulance, and my hands-on training in the call center starts Thursday, 6 AM SHARP.

I missed the girls' appointment by a matter of minutes Friday due to traffic. I re-scheduled it for Thursday evening, and asked the school nurses and the principals for more time. I explained to them what is going on with me concerning my training and everything. I guess they granted me the extra time, because they didn't call me or Matthew to have the girls removed from school today.

Matthew's birthday is on the 13th, which also happens to be MLK weekend. He's not sure about his plans yet, but I definitely want to go and get my hair done and my eyebrows shaped. I want, and NEED, to look my best, you know. LOL

I have to pay all of my bills with this check, but we (all of the city workers) are also getting our holiday pay this period, which still makes for a nice chunk of change. I've noticed, though, that the more money I make, the more I am taxed. That sucks big time.
