Been off-line for awhile because our computer has been hosed. Our neighbor has been so graciously trying to figure out WTF is wrong with it...again. He gave it back to us on Thursday long enough to file our taxes and wants it back ASAP. I still can't get into my email so if anyone has emailed and hasn't gotten a response it's not because I'm being antisocial.
I was offered a permanent position with the company I've been temping for since December. I'm sad to say this it will be a no go. If I wanted to work for $3.00 an hour I would be a happy camper. By the time you take out health insurance premiums and give the government their share, that's what I would end up with. I find that that to be a huge insult. I asked boss man if he was firm on his price and he will not budge. Well, baby, watch me budge right out of that door. The whole job market is such a crock right now.And where in the world do insurance companies get off charging so damn much for so flippin' little? I had it made in CA. I was getting paid ridiculous money and offered excellent bennies. Too bad I didn't know how to manage it well. I really don't believe there's any getting ahead in this life o'mine.
My dad is getting worse. They discovered a few clots in his right leg so now his cumodin has been upped and he's back to getting daily shots in the belly. They have to drive an hour each way to get a two minute shot. I think they should just show my mom or brother how to do it. Makes sense doesn't it?
We were there for Easter and my dad seemed in such good spirits. He opened up a lot to us and we all cried alot too. There wasn't a dry eye in the house when he told us how much he appreciated all of our help. Even the friend that my niece brought home for the weekend cried along with us. It was a very touching weekend.
Abigail will be here in 3 weeks. We're all so excited to meet her. My dad is hanging on really tightly. My brother is over the moon about having a daughter. I guess after raising 3 boys I would be too.
Well, wish me luck at backing out of the job on Monday.
A special note to Stephanie, my heart is with you. If you need to talk, my email has changed for a short time. mrose2@nc.rr.com
Take care all.
