A BEAUTIFUL DAY

What a beautiful weekend we had.  My sweet niece, Afton was baptized on Sunday and almost all my sissy in laws were here.  It was great to see them.  But let me back up.  Mary came home from camp on Friday and told me all about it.  It's great to have her back.  Things seem to have changed since I went to camp back in the 80's.  They went to heber valley and stayed in CABINS! What's that all about?  They got to go on zip lines and do all sorts of fun stuff.  Really? I don't know, but she seemed to have fun.  I don't know if she learned how to cook an entire meal in tin foil like I did, or if she can save any ones life, but by darn, she can zip down a cable to their safety and sing songs to any injured party if she has too.  I make fun, but she came back with wonderful and spiritual stories of her time there, and that is what it's all about. 

So, a few weeks ago when I was working, I got into a knock down, drag out with my boss, Summers Eve, and afterwards took a short break to talk to my husband.  He was well aware of the situation there and had always been very supportive.  Things had mounted to the point where work had become unbearable.  Not only did I work for the grand master douche, but I was not ever seeing my kids.  I would work until 11 o'clock and they would be asleep when I got home, and I would barely be awake when they left in the morning.  Well, taking all that into consideration, I asked Jared if I could quit. He very compassionately said yes.  I gave notice and, well, here we are.  About 10 minutes after I worked my last shift, Jared started asking me when I was planning to go back. 
"I quit"
"Ya, but you're still going to work, right?"
"Uh, no. I quit"
"Oh."
This is now pretty much the conversation I have with him just about every day.  Oops. So, I mustered up some giblets and suggested that he perhaps pick up some extra time at his job or, heaven forbid, he get another job.  Mumble mumble, he is working today on his day off.  Let the games begin. I guess I better get this house spic and span!
There's a new grand master in town:)
