highlights from the week...

well, to say we have been living through some stress would be putting it mildly... so, instead of writing volumes, we'll just highlight the past week...

i interviewed for a new job at a big company

my sister called - my mom isn't doing well - i can tell that from talking to her...

the big company called for a second interview

all my cubby-mates overheard and wanted to know the gossip

D2 has basketball business going on causing her to cry after practice

book flight to SC to see my mom - by myself...

DSL provider sends mail that we are spewing viruses all over the place - they will terminate service if we don't fix

try to upgrade virus software on machine.

it messes with the registry - computer keeps rebooting

support is available, but it will cost you...

go to SC, leave TBW, arrive, get to mom's, when going to bed, she falls from toilet and it takes us 2.5 hours to get her back to bed.

mom wants pedicure, so three hours later - that is done...

receive phone call that flight home has been cancelled.

call airline - listen to 90 prompts, but can't get a human

mom's inernet is on dialup... for the love of God!

TBW gets me a flight home at 10:20 - cutting my trip way short

interview woman to come help my mom - have it worked out

get home, go to second interview

get to my desk - they offered me the job!!!

talk to my mom - she can't afford lady, so she is going to let the doctor prescribe hospice care for her.

D2's basketball season continues on - they are 0-10 - but they are winning the tournament. it will go on two more weeks. and he added more practices.

snow, snow, snow...

still no computer upstairs and someone spilled a drink on this keyboard and the keys stick, and don't type right.
no reading blogs for me...

i am excited to start my new job on the 3rd...

my mom wants TBW and I to visit for easter... (that is a lot from her... she loves us both!)

sometimes all the stress, and down times make you really appreciate the ups.
