Jacob: Has entered the terrible two stage. It's terrible. He's throwing things, throwing fits, biting, pulling hair, he won't eat, and is just plain mean these days. You tell him "No!" and he laughes. He's even banging his head on the kitchen floor. Jeremy picked him up from day-care yesterday and asked how Jay behaved - "He was a Brat!", She said. Hmpf! I felt so badly for her. He's also drooling like a faucet making me think he's working on his last set of molars. Don't get me wrong, he still has moments where I see my sweet little boy peek out of this monster child - usually when he's asleep. They tell me 3 is much better than 2. I hope they're right!
Jeremy: Jeremy has a new boss coming up in the next couple of weeks. The previous took a position at a different location. Jeremy did apply to fill her spot however, someone else did too and they have more experience so were given the opportunity. It's okay. Jeremy is still going to advance and will be working to improve his knowledge and experience for future opportunities...as they call them. We are waiting to meet the new boss and welcome him to the west side!
Amber: We haven't heard from her. I haven't called her either. I don't typically call her. I don't want to get too attached -maybe not the right word - but I don't want to change the relationship as I don't want her to think I'm only around wanting this child. I'm assuming that no news is good news but, I will post again when I do hear from her.
Me: I finally had a long awaited meeting with my manager. I had the chance to ask some things and hear some things. I got my little pat on the back, gave him one and feel much better about my job, my position and reporting structure. I really do work for a great boss. We just forget that we need to talk once in a while. Being October, my workload should gradually get lighter until after Christmas when it'll go full force again.
Murray: Poor little dog who seems to be the topic of conversation lately. We are talking of having him take the one way trip to the vet. We know he doesn't see well. He's had some pottie accidents in the house - I don't tolerate that too well. More worrisome though - he's been darting out the door, snarling and growling. He snapped the neighbor girl. He chased after and snipped at a little boy (5 or 6) from down the street - I was there when it happened - not the kids fault at all! We have been a lot more careful not to leave him outside alone anymore. It makes us really nervous when people stop and ask "Can I pet your dog?", especially little kids.
Our little family: Jeremy finally has this Saturday off. It's been a long time coming. So long that we don't know what to do with ourselves. I think we're heading off to the big mall...it's been a long time since we have gone together. Or maybe we'll nix that idea and head north. I imagine the homeland is on fire with color - it's been along time since I've seen that too. North to Sleeping Bear Dunes, Glen Arbor. I guess you'll find out next week.
