Updating

Hi , it's 6:00 am on Sunday morning, I've been up since 4:30 am. Had a good nights sleep, (took an ambien) at 7:30 pm and got my full 8 hours it promised to deliver. This was much needed as I hadn't slept through the night in at least 4 days. I was first worried that the job I had accepted was going to fall through, as I hadn't heard back from them, then when they did call I was nervous about my capabilities. Anyway yesterday was orientation and all went well, so I was relieved and exhausted.

Yesterday was also the wedding day of my only niece (yes I missed it) though I doubt she noticed. My brother on the other hand may never forgive me, you see it's been my husbands family that has stood and is still standing by me in my decision to leave, not so of my own family. Dennis and the kids all went though, they've said it was a beautiful wedding and Wendy took lots of pictures for me to see. She's going to email them to me today when they get back home. The wedding was in Florida, in my home town, 10 or so hours from where I am right now.

I do hate that I misses it, and if work hadn't called I had planned to go (stares and whispers behind my back be damned), but fate stepped in I guess and saved me (or them) the drama that would probably have surfaced it's ugly head, (that's just the female population of my family), lots of nosey drama queens.

On to other things. My grandaughter is going to have her first trick or treat this year (she was only 7 months old last year) and to young to go door to door. I of course am going to miss it, as I'm sure I'll have to work and it falling on the weekend, but again there will be lots of pictures taken. She will be here with her Poppie on the Friday night and Saturday before, so I'll at least get to see her in her costume and give her my trick or treat goodies (books).
