You guys are funny. I appreciate all of you. And it has been, as usual, a wild week. You know if I don’t post very much it’s because I’m really working hard. But that’s the business I’m in. For the next few weeks I may struggle and have only one or two things to do. As my friend at Microsoft used to say, “Jef, it’s going in fits and starts.” So we’ll do some bullet points.
- I have a deposit slip receipt I keep in my wallet for $7000. I just think it’s cool that at one point in my life I deposited $7000 at one time and it wasn’t a combo paycheck or anything.
- I’m setting up DSL for my mom, who is 74. What an ordeal that’s been. She still has Windows 98. But it’s been fun.
- I’ve been super stressed lately. M has decided to move back with us. ( highlight the space below to read the details )
M had decided before this past weekend it wasn’t such a great idea to live with her dad. Go figure. She hadn’t told him yet, but my wife filled her in on how he would react so she wouldn’t be surprised. Monday, M’s dad picked her up at the designated meeting spot and tore into her. Took her to his in-law’s house, where he lives, and put all her stuff in garbage bags and screamed at her in front of his wife and his in-laws. He called her the “C” word and a “W” and told her that, “you’re not my daughter, I don’t have a daughter.” So who would want to be his daughter? He just dropped her at our front door Monday night. We weren’t home, we were watching HP 5, so we turn our cell phones on after the moving and there are like 19 missed calls. My in-laws picked M up and took her to their house until we could get home. So I’m looking to add a line to my cell service.
- My niece is really in a lot of trouble. That’s stressing me out too. ( again, highlight below to read the details )
My niece a few months ago decided she would leave her 5 year old child in daycare one day and take off with a guy that wasn’t her husband. This guy is a drug addict and steals her stuff and pawns it for drug money. My niece’s husband had to get emergency leave from Dubai to come home and get emergency custody of his son. My sister is now taking care of her grandson. My niece is messed up. She up and left last weekend and now has a place in a nearby town and is shaking up with the drug dealer again. She’s going to have to hit rock bottom. And she’s pregnant … Lord …
- I’ll be posting next week on Texas on “And the Pursuit … ( Sunshine’s )” website. I get to guest host. She wants to do a travel theme so people from different states are posting about their state. Guess what, I get Texas … go figure … but stop by and check out my post on the 28th.
- Here’s a funny joke I heard on the new Brad Paisley CD. Totally love this joke.
“My neck is so stiff. I took a Viagra last night and it got stuck in my throat.”
