Troy left Friday. Saturday we got news of a possible buyout at work, and Sunday it was confirmed. Meetings were held with GMs on Monday, and the new owners visited outr store Tuesday. I got home Tuesday afternoon in time for a neighborhood to set fire to my pampas grass out front, and almost catch my house on fire. He took out about 3 bushes, the grass, and a dogwood sapling. I called my ex-husband for help with my 16yo and he is ignoring the requests... giving lip service and takling about how busy he is. Wednesday I had my surgery pre-op. The hopsital informed me due to the new lab procedures I won't get my biospy results for 5-7 working days after surgery. No answers before DC. Thursday night my mom wasn't answering the phone (home or cell) despite the fact she promised my Dad she would call when she got home.. SO I called the cops for a wellness check. She's not amused with me, since she had only fallen asleep on the couch. But at least I could sleep knowing she wasn't in a ditch somewhere. Dad left my house thing morning for a week, a sanity saver for a bit for me. Today everyone called out at work, and I walked in the door ready to collapse. I got home to message from Troy's cousin saying it was a family emergency. I knew immediately... his aunt died. She's been dying of cancer since last spring. I've gotten news to him, and neither of us is taking it well. Troy has decided he is going to email the Charlotte office, and have them officially switch him to walker status. So if anyone wants to do anything at for him... help him get this $1800 (
