News!
After finishing my delicious grocery store Chinese lunch, I cracked open my fortune cookie.
“Good things are soon to be coming your way”, it read.
Damn right fortune cookie!!
I have 2 peices of good news. First, the second best… I have a new car! Daddy’s car broke down and he decided that since I do way more driving than he does, he would buy me a new car and take my old “banana boat”. So a bit of an early Happy Birthday to Me!! I am now the very proud owner of a white ‘07 Kia Optima LT! Daddy picked a good one for me.. it’s girly to the core! heehee – it even has a “purse hook”. Niiiiiice! OH and the best part is a 5 year warranty so we won’t run into trouble again and go broke fixing it. We had Daddy’s car for only 10 months and it went to shit.
And the best news of all…..
….. drumroll please ……
DADDY WILL BE ON FIRST SHIFT STARTING MONDAY!!! What a fantastic b-day present!!
I am so unbelievably happy about that simple little shift change! He will be losing 30 cents an hour, but as my darling Chessa has said, the money is less important than our happyness. And my happyness wasn’t always exactly present while I’ve been dealing with this shift change crap!
So weeee. No more juggling kid, dog, homework, and housework all alone! No more lonely evenings. No more going nearly 48 hours without seeing my Love. No more waiting up for him only to end up with 5 hours of sleep and hellish classes the next day.
Phew…

I’m so happy things are looking up and going well for both of you! I’m glad you talked to him and both of you were able to sort through everything – that’s great! Rough patches are a part of any relationship, but going through it and coming out on the other side will just make your union stronger. *hugs*
