MORE life goodness!
Mostly good, some bad...had to deal with family issues that are hopefully going to work out. Utah Mom was told that either she kicks out the slug by the time my sister in law gets back from spring break or she only gets a chance to see her grand son on family dinners. It...didn't go well. A half hour of talking Mom down and out of her panic attack helped a lot, I gave her a lot to think about, and now hopefully she does the right thing. 30 is too old to be going to school part time, spending all of your income on video games and dvds, and living with mommy. there are other issues, but I'm not going in to them. If you know them, you know them.
It may get violent with him, though, in which case he goes to jail. We're done playing games, he needs to be gone and out of there. His negligence could have killed her, and the very least he has no business asking Mom, who is barely scraping by on state assistance, to support him.
Edit: It turns out that she's been waiting for him to leave on his own for years now, but wanted him to do it without being forced to. This is good.
But, enough of that! On to better things!
I may be getting promoted again, this time to Section Manager, a position that does not exsist yet on graves. We're waiting on approval, but I gave the go ahead tonight, and suggested a replacement for my current position that was seen as viable.
Mary and I will be getting to Atlanta a day early for checking in to the hotel if that's the best rate on flights that we get. In return for once again seeing the incredible true examples of Southern hospitality from Ed and Sharon, I'll be taking over the kitchen for the evening and making some of my favorite cheesecake recipes (Incliuding, if I can find a recipe that I like, a Margarita Cheesecake. I just need one that will allow for more than a few tablespoons of booze :) Success! I've got one recipe that would allow about a half cup each of triple sec and tequila. I just need to experiment)
What else...hmm..still madly in love, looking forward to a good friend visiting at the end of the month, and generally diggin on the way that life is going.
Another edit: the winter saw me baloon to 320 pounds, mostly due to the grave shift and slugging down a monster energy frink a night. Down 5 pounds in the last 2 weeks, and dropping fast.
The gym and a gentle application of diet pills is doing me happy!
