Well here we are at finals again. I cannot believe that it is already here. I am concerned about my math final. It is one of the course compass classes, and it doesn't really show your grade. Well I have struggled all semester with this class. I am behind and slowing catching up. I am just hoping that I am able to pass that class.
I am horrible with math. I am so concerned about not passing this semester, that I am freaking out about what to do about it. It is all I can think about. When I am at work all I can think about is I should be home doing math. Then when I am home and trying to work on my math I feel like I am neglecting my other classes. I am just so worried about it.
Then there is the fact of this last paper. I am trying to finish it, and whenever I am working on it I have a hard time concentrating on it thinking that I need to be doing my math. I feel like this math class is taking over my mind.
I am just glad that this is supposed to be the last math class that I need. Maybe that way I can just be done with math. I don't understand when in my life I will need to know how to graph a problem like 7x +5y is greater than 2. I do not think that in any field I will need to know that. I would not ever consider a field that I would have to do that. I am horrible at it.
Well anyway best of luck to all those getting ready for finals. I will pray for everyone to do well. I will be praying extra hard for those like me who are struggling. :)

Search For Missing Mom
In Austin TX police are searching for missing 21-year-old Julie Gonzales. She was last seen March 26th by her estranged husband. She had went to his house to pick up their two year old daughter and then changed her mind, according to her estranged husband George De La Cruz. He states that when she showed up she looked sad and was out of it. Then he says that she told him, "never mind I'll come back later." He also states that he will take a polygraph test.
The police say that they are looking for her to the fullest extent of the law, but without probable cause they cannot search her abandoned car. They found her car located outside of a Walgreen's store. Julie worked at another Walgreen's in Austin as a pharmacy tech.
Her mother and aunt both say that for the last two years Julie has been the type of mother that is always there for her daughter. They both say that she is not the type of mother that would rather be out partying.
It is said that there has been no activity with her bank account, but that her mother had to go and look at a servalence tape from a store where one of her daughters credit cards was used. Her mother has said that it was not her daughter and that she didn't know who it was. Her family has fears that something terrible has happened to her.
I feel that maybe her estranged husband might have had something to do with her disappearance, but there is a bit of dought that he did. I guess he could of but how do we know that someone else didn't. Maybe she did come to his house the way he said and felt or knew that something was going to happen to her and left her daughter there so that nothing would happen to her. I hope that they find out what has happened to her for the sake of her daughter and her family.

My weekly rant
I cannot believe people, mainly celebrities. Heidi Montag as the whole world is aware recently got a boob job. Well, it is all over the press about her boob job. I say who cares. What I also do not understand is that she not only went big she went DDD. I think this is ridiculous. Who wants back pain and neck pain? She is asking for problems later.
What promoted me to even write a blog about it is that this evening while in line at the grocery store, I was looking at the tabloids and seen a story about her. It said in the story that she is not happy with her DDD's she is now wanted to get them redone to an H. I think she looks awkward now I cannot even imagine an H. That is crazy. I think that she felt like she wasn't getting enough publicity so she decided to get a boob job that was crazy big so that she would get attention. Now I think that she likes the attention that she is getting and doesn't want to loose it so she wants to get a bigger set.
I cannot believe that she would really want bigger than she currently has. I understand people getting this done because they want to feel better about their bodies and that is fine. But hers is getting ridiculous. If she goes to an H she will not look right. They will not match her body. They already don't look even. and when she has on something like a tight topped dress they look like one giant boob. I guess because I am not made of money and a movie star I do not understand this kind of stuff.
If I have offended anyone I am sorry I did not write this to do that I just feel like this is a crazy money making move on her part.

Man Tortured 4-Year-Old Boy
In Michigan a man has been charged with 9 charges, all of which involved his girlfriends 4-year-old boy.
Brandon Haynes 24, is accused of killing and torturing 4-year-old Dominick Calhoun. He apparently beat and tortured little Dominick for days. His mother supposedly had tried to cover him from the abuse but got beaten herself. This was all done over the little boy wetting his pants. This is such an awful tragedy. I feel that the mother should also be charged with murder. She put the child in that situation and did not remove him from it.
I understand that she tried to cover him from the blows but this is ridiculous. Brandon Haynes apparently had also burned the child. In the autopsy he had burns on his knuckles.
This kills me to read things like this. This young child is gone from this world and for what for wetting his pants. Something that most children do. This was such a heart breaking story to read. Then to know that it had went on for days. I cannot even fathom what that little angel was going through.
I truly hope that this man gets the death penalty. He doesn't deserve to live. How can a human do this to another human. Then to know that he did this to a child. If that were my son I would be in prison for killing that sicko for laying a finger on my child. I cannot believe this child's mother let this happen to her baby. How can you sit there and let this happen? I would of died trying to get him out of that situation.

Russia Furious Over Boy Adopted
Moscow- Russian adoptive services are furious and have threaten to put a hold on all U.S adoptions. Thursday a 7-year-old boy was put on a plane alone with a letter from his adoptive mother, stating that the boy has major psychological problems. The mother Torri Hansen, had adopted this little boy and decided a few months later not to keep him.
The mother and grandmother stated that the boy had threatened to burn down the home with them in it. Russia and other US adoption agencies are saying that people do this a lot because they do no realize the emotional toll that these children have been through.
Russia is currently saying that they will only allow adoptions if the US will sign a treaty sating that they can prosecute families that are doing these things.
Apparently in 2006 a lady named Peggy was sentenced to 25 years for killing her 2-year-old adopted daughter. Then in 2008 a lady named Kimberly was sentenced to 15 years for killing a Russian infant that was placed with her. Then in March of this year a couple supposedly killed there 7-year-old adopted child from where, Russia. So we can all tell why Russia is wanting a treaty signed by them and the US.
When I seen this story I was shocked to say the least. Why are these people killing these children? What is wrong with people. They must be insane. If the children were that much of a problem then give them up do not kill a child. That is crazy. I feel that if you are going to adopt a child then it is the same as having one, you are responsible for that child forever. That is your child, if you adopt them then yo need to be prepared for the possibility of the problems. Everyone should know that these children have been through HELL they need someone to love them through the tantrums.

Update on Health
Well, here is the final update on the mammogram. I received my results Tuesday at work. It is excess breast tissue. This is a good thing. The report states that if it continues to be painful I should have surgery to have it removed. My doctor and I have decided that it would be best to wait and see if it continues to be painful. Rather than just jump into a major surgery.
This was the best news that I have heard in a long time. I don't think I have ever held my breath so hard as I did when he told me he had the report. I didn't realize how scared I really was. That was horrible!!!
I want to say thank you again very much for all of you who prayed. There are not words that can express the thanks that you deserve. So again thank you....
I am very thankful that it was not anything major. This news is a big blessing for me. I had actually thought what will I tell my four children if it comes back as cancer. That was the hardest thing that I have ever thought that I might have to tell my children. (My kids still do not know that there was ever a problem.) I never told them anything. I didn't want to scare them. Especially my step son. His mom always tells him things that he doesn't need to know.
Well, I do not what to go on about the same things and repeating myself so again thank you for your prayers.

A Little About Breast Cancer
This might seem a little weird for a blog, but when you have this possibility shoved at you at the age of 30, it makes you read a lot about it.
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women. It is the second most common cause of death in women. Just to read that should be enough to scare the crap out of any female. Although most people do not realize that a male can get breast cancer also. It is not very common but it can occur.
There are a lot of signs to indicate that you need to get checked. The most common is if you feel a lump. But, you should also watch for redness and soreness. These can also be signs of breast cancer. You should also know your family history. Your chances of getting breast cancer can increase if you have breast cancer in your family. Your chances can also increase if your breast are bigger than a D cup.
One thing that some women know is that a lot of caffeine can cause lumps that are not cancer. But you should always have them checked. You never know if it is from caffeine or cancer.
You should do monthly self exams. A doctor can teach you how to do these correctly. You should also have exams once a year.
I just wanted to post this so that maybe it will help someone learn more about breast cancer.

Just an Update
Well for those who have said that they were keeping me in their prayers. First and most importantly thank you for that it is deeply appreciated.
Well, I cannot say a lot for an update. I don't have a lot of news yet. I did go on Thursday and have the mammogram done. Directly after the mammogram was the ultrasound. They was then ever so sweet as to tell me that I wouldn't hear the results until next week around Tuesday. So there isn't much to tell on that.
But when I got to work Thursday afternoon, the doctor that I work for told me that he was hopeful that it wasn't cancer. He feels that it is a cyst that is noncancerous. But, he did remind me that he will not know for sure until he gets the results back next week.
So I just wanted to let those who read last weeks, to know that I am now playing the end of the waiting game. Only three more days til the results are in. I will keep you posted and again my deepest thanks from the bottom of my heart for both the responses. It is nice to hear that someone you have never met finds enough time to stop and pray for someone that they have never met. In this day and age that doesn't happen much so again Thank you to you both.
