I’m sooooo thankful for my Daddy!  He surprised us with an early Christmas present that was much needed.  We stopped by his house last night, and he ordered the new tire for the bike so Hubby can get to work without spending so much on gas!

The other good news is Hubby didn’t have to stick with the job an hour away.  He was getting frustrated with that job after only a few days because there was a major lack of authority among many other issues with the company.  Just as he was getting so frustrated he didn’t know what he would do he got a call from a guy much closer who was willing to pay him much more, and he gets to go back into his old carpentry job instead of being stuck building concrete forms all day.

He jumped at the chance, so now he’ll be working 40 minutes away from home instead of a little over an hour.  It’s not much of a difference, but it’s still better.  He’s been working with this new company for a week now, and he’s really loving it.  I’m happy that he’s found something he loves to do again, and this company actually appreciates and compensates for his experience.

The good news is Hubby found a job right before we completely bottomed out financially.  The bad news is this job is an hour away, and his first check won’t come for 2 weeks.  That means he’s going to need to ride the bike to work because the gas for commuting is going to be about $20/day in the truck, we need a new tire on the bike before he can take it anywhere, and we still won’t have the cash to even attempt to order the tire for at least 2 weeks.

My little girl is growing up and moved into her own house. She has always been a daddy’s girl and I have never had any complaints about that. I do not think I will ever have any complaints about that. It is wonderful to be loved so unconditionally. When she started looking at houses, I was the first person she came to for advice. She asked me about the nice neighborhoods and what questions to ask. I was thrilled with her choice. I was even more thrilled when she asked for help to get everything set up. She was able to put in adirect tv order for next week and also get the water turned on quickly. I told her I would take care of the power company and landscaping. I have always loved to landscape and I think my daughter was aware of that when she asked for my help. The lawn looks amazing and she said she is really enjoying it. I am lucky to have such a loving daughter and I hope she always needs and wants me.

Got to go for a ride today…finally!  Boy did it feel good!
