Things just get better and better at work. Every few days now, the owner takes out of his "busy" day to give me little pep talks, mostly involving how things are going GREAT but really offering no explanation as to what IS so great. He will often also tell me about how much he appreciates all my hard work, blah blah.. all while I'm thinking "you often make a sport of throwing me under the bus to cover your own questionable decisions". Grrr.
I'm attending Thanksgiving with my family up in northern Indiana with my children. Work was gracious enough to let us have the Friday after Thanksgiving off, like the rest of the country, so I'm staying up there for all four days. The kids never get to see my side of the family due to.. whatever. There was always an excuse for not visiting, whatever. They have several cousins up there, older than them, but still... I hope to take a trip back east with them as well to visit my parents and so they can see their new first cousin in something other than pictures, probably sometime early next year. We'll see how that goes.
