Insanity describes my last few weeks, accurately at that.
It truly is all happening, and its been a mixed bag of treats.
Good: My wife had her surgery and has recovered in good order.
Bad: We've been on one income.
Ugly: Money's tighter than speedos on a sumo wrestler.
Good: The stepdaughter and her husband are moving out.
Bad: There was fight with the in-law because the lazy ass wouldn't get off the couch.
Ugly: Residual bad blood remains.
Good: The Wife goes back to work, finally
Bad: First night back she has a fall and severely sprains her ankle.
Ugly: Needs a few more days.
Good: I may have a line on a new job. Coincidentally the school for which I work is offering redundancy packages.
Bad: A maybe does not a job make. I have to stay put until I actually have a job.
Ugly: If I do get the one I apply for, I may be unable to blog more than once or twice a month. And my night position ends at the end of the coming week. They'll want me on days. I don't particularly want a day shift.
Good: My little Honda is back on the road.
Bad: I still owe my mechanic $500.
Ugly: My mechanic is a biker.
There's more, of course, but you get the general idea.
So my life has been a bit of a wild ride these last few weeks. Things are stabilizing, though, and I hope to be back up to three blogs a week for as long as is practical. If I do get that job, I'll let you know and give you notice so you know what to expect.
I like this post format!
ReplyDeleteAdding my wishes for you to get the job! And for a speedy recovery to the Wife.
Actually, I'm quite proud of that post, Colleen, and as funny as some of it is, it is also true. If you like a challenge, I'll challenge you to create a "Good, bad, and ugly" post. There should be at least three items.
