Helllloooooooo! Feels like I've been away for ages (2 days can feel like eternity, ya know?)!
My Dad showed up on my doorstep on Monday afternoon after a driving tour to visit all of his step-children all over Alberta and British Columbia (10-year anniversary of their mother's death so he wanted to make the rounds). He placed his current wife (with advancing Alzheimer's) in permanent care and needed to get away. It was such a neat surprise, and he actually looked like he was faring a LOT better than he was when I saw him in Feb. PTL. He left yesterday, but then we had a parade of tradespeople through the house to finish most of the details that had not yet been done (whatever is undone at this point is scheduled to be done, at least).
In the midst of that insanity, I had to go meet with my supervisor for a 'one-on'one'. Went well, it was mostly for me to give feedback on how I think I've been trained/prepared to handle my position, not much about my actual performance(again, PTL!LOL).
The in-laws came over for supper before Jen's soccer game last night, and we had a really nice visit (always goes better when Wayne is absent, somehow!LOL). Fed them salad w/couscous and marinated chicken...got raves. They had never had couscous...and they rarely ever eat healthily. Then went to the game (so beautiful outside that the rotten score didn't even matter). Then home to BED!
Today is a NOTHING day...WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Hope you all have a day that makes you smile and sigh!

Lots of good news in that post!

Yeeeeeikes!

Oh, no!
The guy found a few different 'deficiencies', but nothing 'unsafe' (so we can still live here!LOL). Guess the builder owes the county a bunch of paperwork (how they ever got the green-light to build is betond me), and it's gonna start costing them if this inspector has to come out more than once more. Whatever. Wayne and I were both actually laughing at how incompetent the builder is (hey, our house looks gorgeous and is safe!). We're throwing our hands up, and starting to live, regardless of any of this. Took the inspector's paperwork to our lawyer, so he'll make sure things are done.
I know you guys keep us in your thoughts, so all is good! Love you!
