BUSY! BUSY! BUSY!

It is Friday, I am going to be real busy today trying to wrap up everything that I can on my desk. I don't know if I will be able to get everything done, but it won't be for lack of trying.

Not much happened last night-tried a new lamb recipe. I don't have much experience with lamb, but this was a keeper recipe. I will tweak it a little, but not much. It is a braised lamp chop-was suppose to use shoulder chops, didn't have those, but what I had worked.

I haven't been crocheting much lately. I have been in a reading mood. But I do need to crochet a few more sets before the project is done.

As I stated yesterday, tonight is laundry and tomorrow is cleaning. last night my husband asked me if I made a copy of paperwork that he submitted when he was out sick for a few weeks. I thought I had made him a copy, apparently, I copied everything but that piece of paper. He is not happy with me, but the capper was he waited till we were getting ready for bed after he had played his game for 4 hours to ask about it. Then I couldn't find the gauze roll for his leg wrap-he had moved stuff and buried it. (It became my fault) Aggravating all in all, but just a deep breath and ignore the steps. He threatened to disconnect the playstation, but I know he won't. I just will become a nag. However, If I start laundry as soon as I get home, he will pick up on it. I hope. He hasn't done complete laundry in all the time he has done it. I want to get it ALL done. Then tomorrow clean.

I don't know what will happen Sunday.

I talked to my daughter last night. She needed to vent. She starts a new job Monday and for the first bit she is at a straight salary then salary decreases and she gets bonus'. she has worked with her new boss before, and she trusts him, but change, even for the better is hard. On top of that, her upstairs shower has a bad leak that leaks into her kitchen downstairs. She was hoping to fix it in the spring under a refinance, but it is getting too bad. Her downstairs bath doesn't drain-she needs to get a plumber. Can't afford any of this. She hasn't received child support in over 6 months, and my gd's father called with a sob story. My dd has had enough. She told the father that she would tell my gd that he called and what he told her, and then give gd the choice of writing. He didn't like that, but my daughter is finally tired of his lies to gd. As she told me, "I will see what is being said, and help gd deal with it." The father is a loser. He was given weekly visitation of all day Sundays-and as much phone contact during week as he wanted. This was through the court and based on what he was doing before the court date. He would visit for maybe an hour or two, and maybe call 2times a week, then it decreased, then every other Sunday, it has been since April since he has contacted his daughter. No good phone number no contact, not even showing up on the doorstep on a Sunday afternoon, not even a letter. I am a little upset with him. GD is a good kid, and my dd new husband steps up to the plate as 'dad' but this still hurts. Sorry for the vent.
