Relatively short. If I drive, it's between 25-35 minutes, unless there's an accident or something on the bridge, then it can be over an hour if I have to go around. By bus it's about 40 minutes.

Mrs. Brd injured her foot and is out of teaching for a month. There are some benefits, no conflicts to take the kids to lessons, camp etc. It is painful, but she is tough (three births with NO pain medication.)
Right after I returned from my bereavement leave, they let me go. It was kind of a mutual decision, yet not. Then they kind of screwed me around a little bit with unemployment and stuff. Luckily I got it all worked out. It's really an odd situation.

I dunno. I'm not really looking at this exact moment, because i am just trying to focus on getting my mom through everything and setting her all up to be independent. We are going to be house hunting and other things, so we decided it might be easier to just collect unemployment for a few months, get all this taken care of, and then go back to work. Who knows, our goals change daily!

Transitions are difficult. Even this little foot issue threw us for a loop, but we did discuss tonight that minor health issues are nothing compared to what many families endure every day. (like your family)
Our lives will change in 2008 when C13 goes to high school! Yikes!
Yup. There is a family across the street that are like my second family. I have known their girls since Amy was 1 and well since Jordan was born. Amy is graduating 8th grade this year. I saw her last night and she asked if i was coming over on friday and helping her get ready for the 8th grade dance. I cried, lol! And then felt really old! I can't believe she is starting HS in a few months. Scary.

haha, I miss that. But my dad was a royal pain. I'd stay up until the wee hours of the morning and expect to sleep in, but no, my dad would do everything in his power to annoy me enough when he was leaving for work.

After my senior year of high school I would sleep until 1:00 p.m. That is now only a few hours before a cocktail! Only C9 is up when I go to work in the morning. I asked Mrs. Brd if she would drive me to the L now that she is not working! She said yes!
