Okay, here's a tatoo for ya. Now I don't know how much they cost, but I'm sure a good one cost's some buck's. So instead of having some ding dong stick needles in ya an permamently discolor your beautiful skin, how about a mental tatoo instead.
Take the money you'd otherwise spend on your tatoo, and get on a bus. Take a ride out of town, out of state, as far as you can go. Just take a few days and road trip, or beach it, go hunting or fishing, or whatever your heart decides. Go alone with God, and let Him unfold the beauty in this GINORMOUS world we live in. Use that money to get your being outside that cramped little box that you've allowed the dark side of this world to somehow stuff you in.
Don't burden yourself with more things to regret later on. Shake off those feathers and fly like the new bird that you have become.
See you on the bus!
Love,
COG

Great news on the job! So, are you going to be doing the work of the ones that are getting fired, as well as your own?
As far as the appraisal goes, they don't need to be there long. I think it is like everything else in real estate; location, location, location. The appraiser only looks at the place to make sure it is still there, and is what is claims to be. The details don't play into it much. From what you said before, I have a feeling it will be fine. Hopefully Jeff's plan is sound, borrowing from your house still means you have to pay back more, that income has to come from somewhere. Though it sounds like you've made a step in that direction!
Anyway, I meant to say this a few days ago. From the tone of what you've been writing, it sounds like Jeff's general attitude towards everything has been better lately. I take he's working, and that his knee is feeling better? I think that being off your game physically, and not being able to work, and even really provide for yourself really hurts your whole outlook, so hopefully this is an opportunity for things to improve. It also sounds like maybe the drinking is even more under control, at least you haven't brought it up. All of that seems hopeful to me. Hang in there AmyC!
