awww Janet, I am sorry! We seem to have a lot in common! I feel so lonely because Kenny and the kids are never here. I can't really do much and it makes me sad.
Kevin is working on Eagle too, but I'm ready to strangle him! He has everything finished...all of the badges, Eagle project done, EVERYTHING. All he has to do is finish the paperwork and submit it. It's like pulling teeth! He was supposed to go to NC to see a friend next month but I told him he isn't going unless all of the Eagle paperwork is in. The HARD part is done, I don't understand him, I really don't! He'll be 18 Dec 4th. If he doesn't get this done he will regret it forever, but I can't get him to think that far ahead!

That is exactly the way Ricky is. He will wait until the very last minute if we let him. We are on him almost everyday to get more done. He really should have had this done last year, because he was in the exact same position. What are we to do? I did tell him he had until the end of Sept. to get it done or else his computer and game system was being put in my closet until it is.

I must be a real dork!! I just found out today, that my husband has been trying to quit drinking!!! YAY!!!!! I sent Ricky to town to get a Papa John's pizza and was telling his dad that I wanted to put a beer in the freezer so it would get good and cold by the time Ricky got back. He said he hasn't bought any for a month. How great is that????
Now I know why he's so nervous and crying over the Eagle scout thing, withdrawals maybe. Sometimes it's best just to tell me straight out...LOL...I get so busy I just don't notice things.

I don't know what the pay difference is between the two jobs, but he will save quite a bit of money on gas, so that should help a little.
It sounds like your hubby is trying to change & be happier, maybe he wants to reconnect with you. Maybe his week off could be a really good week. |

He went in and talked with the guy this morning. He wants to work there and they want him...sooooo he's going to take the job. He's going to go talk with his boss now on Friday and see what kind of notice he would like if any. I doubt seriously he'll want any because they just don't have the work. So, he'll be right in town now...so much nicer.

Janet, the quitting drinking is a MAJOR step in the right direction! I hope all of this turns out to be the start of some profound improvement for both of you!
My prayers are with you!
