Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
Hello all my dear friends! I am so sorry for being MIA for so long; however, there has been so much going on I haven't had a moment's rest.
I've been caring for my dear sweet uncle who just passed away a couple of weeks ago. He was my favorite uncle and he lived a long life. He was 92 years old and always so healthy until the past two years.
I do have an update on my son.
As you all know he was released on October 27,2008. He got a job immediately making $20.00 an hour; however, that job is now done as they were doing stone work at a new casino here.
Work is now going to be very difficult because of the rain and no more jobs around. Thankfully, he has put away a few bucks for this rainy day and only hope he continues doing well.
We have a couple of scary moments too! I did let him use my cellphone but warned him not to go over the minutes. Well, he was very close to going over and I warned him of the fact. Next thing I know is he was way over. In fact, 50.00 over. I took the phone away and had him reinburse me the 50.00.
Don't know how he liked that but too bad. He is staying with us until he gets a place, but now that work is not steady who knows.
He gets annoyed with me 'cause I do the mother thing and Mr. Dev stays "stop it, he's 46"!
He is being tested a couple of times a month so hopefully he stays clean.
One night he stayed out until the wee hours of the morning. I told him that was unacceptable and if he wants to stay out he should at least call and let me know. He hasn't done that since.
It seems he is always testing the waters!! He never stops.
I don't worry as much anymore because I know his fate is in his hands, not mine. Best I can do is hope and pray he gets his life together this time.
The good news here is we all got together to meet my grandaughter and her baby who is now 17 months old. She is still in the rehab and doing really well. The baby is there with her. She is determined to change her life and I'm so happy for her.
Hope you're all doing well. I promise I will drop in more often and keep you updated.
Have a wonderful Xmas and I pray that next year will be the best year ever for all.
Love you and miss taking with you.
Hugs, Devastated
p.s. can you belive the boy complained about not only the 1500 mattress, but the thread count as well! LOL
