Thanks to ya all for catching up with me, Nikki, HS and GD!
HS you'll be happy to hear that I just broke off a drill bit in the first bolt I was drilling out, it just keeps getting more and more fun... Yes some stainless bolts would do nice too!
Nikki, I'm sure I could hang out with your husband and have a good time working on stuff, you wanna hang out with my wife and we can talk sense into each other's spouses?
GD, anniversary is tomorrow, June 30th. No plans, got her a card, didn't send it, I'll leave it on the counter and she can get it on Monday morning when she gets here. I did buy a private box suite to minor league baseball game for Tuesday. I had tried to get her to go to a major league baseball game on Sat for our anniversary but she "had to think about it" and told me the next morning "just take me to a game when I'm there" so I got tickets for that. I almost sent her flowers and almost overnighted her card to her with a music CD she might like, but stopped myself at the last min and decided to do neither.
After driving back from the overnight stay with my mom, went straight to lunch with all my co-workers. Laughed a bunch over lunch, then went to work to do some critical stuff for 45 mins, then off to IC with my mom. We talked about the stuff we'd talked about during our trip overnight out of town, the IC thinks everything with me is going good, that I've come a long ways in the past few months. One thing I told her was that "I no longer need my wife's approval to feel good about myself, I know I'm a good person and I don't need her to tell me that, I believe it myself", the IC kind of got wide eyed and smiled at that comment. Anyhow it has been a good day, except for the continued lawn mower problems, soon my patience will expire and I'll go buy a new one!!!
