You Are Fired!

Well, I know that all of you are wondering "What you got fired?" and the answer is Yes! Let me first say Stroller Strides sucks as a corporation. They allow a co-owner of Stroller Strides to write bad checks, bounce checks, cancel classes and most of all be unprofessional. So, last week I wrote a letter to the lady who bought Stroller Strides in Bakersfield, Christine Royer, about cancelling my classes, non-payment of my check and her unprofessionalism. I explained that if I did not heard from her by the 15th I will contact corporate and complain. So, in return she terminated me as an instructor from Stroller Strides. First, it is a free country to express my concerns and feels without the fear of termination;however, in the end she did not like what I had to say about her and her running this business so she let me go! That Sucks! So, then I wrote back and stated that I wanted the month of July and my final check for August on the 15th by noon and guess what no check (of course). So, Tuesday I wrote a letter to corporate explaining that I was turning not only her in to the labor board, but Stroller Strides Inc for illegal withholding my funds. Then, Wednesday I finally received my paycheck, thank god. I feel stress free of this horrible corporation and in the end after going to get trained I have made back some of the money, but have lost $200.00 from the whole thing. I am so pissed about the whole thing, but you know there is a reason for everything. Poor Marelle is still suck with Stroller Strides and she says she will be leaving in Sept.

Now, on to a better note. Madison is a busy, busy little girl. She is everywhere and in everything. She of course has more teeth coming in on the bottom (oh the joys of no sleeping). Can you pass the Tylenol please! She loves for me to read her books, chase her around the house,listen to music and the girl loves shoes (especially wearing them). I now have her on a schedule where she takes a nape between 11-12 and wakes up between 130-2. Her lunch is about 230 and dinner is 830. Expect Danny like to mess around on the weekends and kind-of take her off the schedule which I hate, but oh well. She is starting to do the tantrum thing, but when she does I just walk away and let her be. She is doing great! Maybe now she is ready for a playmate.......

Danny and I just had our 2nd anniversary on the 18th. So, we have been together for 6 years and married for 2 years. We still have our ups and downs just like any couple, but it has been a great two years. I love ya Papa.

Danny starts school next week which will only be Tuesday and Thursday from 9-11. Hooray, no more night classes. This time he has an online class and a class he has to attend on that Tuesday and Thursday. At the end of this year he will have an AA in Liberal Studies and hopefully start Business Administration in Health care in Jan. 2010.

Work is going good and the night shift has not been bad at all. I was think about actually next month picking up an extra shift on Wednesday to see how much difference it will be if I did not pick up an extra shift and to see if it is worth working.

Everything is great in the Gonzalez House!
