Haven't updated in a while so here goes in case anyone might be interested:
1. Crazy sister - She's out of my mother's house (yeah - happy dance!) and in a pseudo rehab center almost 100 miles away. I say pseudo because there really isn't any therapy provided, it's more like a halfway house with curfew laws and they do random blood testing. Any positive test for any drugs or alcohol and she gets the boot. I have low to no expectations, so hopefully she'll prove me wrong.
2. Stressed out Mother - To get my sister out of the house, she had to put it on the market. It sold in just 2 days for above the asking price. The downsize is she could only find a smaller and a bit less functional place to move into. She is angry (as am I) that it took putting her house on the market and having to move to get her daughter out of her house and to stop the harassment. I am traveling down to see her this weekend and help her get things boxed up and ready to move into the new place. She closes on Monday the 8th.
3. Girlfriend - Things are still going very, very well with her and I. Dec 6th marks the 1 year date of when she first contacted me on Match. So I guess that means she likes me ;-).
I had a great Thanksgiving with my oldest daughter visiting from Wisconsin. She helped out with cooking the Thanksgiving dinner and I must say it turned out pretty nicely. It was a small gathering, just me, her, GF and her two kids. D18 and D16 were with their Mom and my son had a "Friendsgiving" near where he lives.
That's about it - no real drama in my life right now of which I am eternally grateful for, which makes me wonder if that should concern me, i.e the quiet before a storm that I am unaware of...
