Job, I’m so happy to see you back! There was quite a worry about you on this board. I’m sure you’ve read the posts on other threads… I’m also very grateful that I’m one of a few people you posted to when you came back from your break (I hope everything is good in your world.) Thanks for your advice, as always. I don’t know if H will be re-decorating again in 6 months or so, LOL. I don’t think he has much money. From whatever info I gather, it seem like H is in a different kind of depression… I don’t think there is much replay going on at the moment (judging by the credit card spending, which are much tamed right now, especially at his usual favorite restaurants.) This is as much I will say… I do have more details, but it doesn’t look like these posting generate much interest anymore. It might be beneficial for my own records to keep a journal, but I’m not really good at it anyway.

I’ve been reading some posts and trying to keep up… But… it has been crazy busy for me. I can’t even remember what I did as far as a week ago.

I did some yard work last Saturday. The grass needed to be mowed badly, since it was raining the weekend before that and I could not mow it. There was some weed pulling and branch cutting… So, I was very sore after that. On Sunday I went to an avocado festival with my BIL (H’s brother), my other BIL (my sister’s H) and my GF. It was fun! Then, I had my son for dinner on Monday (since I could not do it on Sunday), I had a happy hour on Tuesday, another happy hour on Wednesday (both with the company folks)… I’ve also been watching a series called “Truth about Cancer”, which were free on the day they came out (so much interesting information there)… And… I’ve been putting some hours into my two other (on the side) projects… after my regular work hours… I’m exhausted… This is the first night when I came home and don’t have to work after work…

Job, I’ve been enjoying my new car a lot! Thanks for asking! After all the stress of making a decision to buy it, then deciding how much to put in down payment and financing options, I finally realized that this is my dream to come through…. I was thinking about this new car and wanted it for a few years… And now I have it! I did it!

As for the next holiday at the end of May… Yes, I’m planning to go to the vacation home for the weekend. Then, I am going to Vegas with one of my GFs. It will be the week of my big B-day. She has some kind of package deal and invited me to join her. I jumped on the offer with no hesitation. I don’t want to be at work on my B-day. I’m not a big Vegas fan, but I can have some fun for a few days. My other GF decided to take a vacation with me too, and travel somewhere not too far (most like Latin America), we are in the process of deciding where we want to go. So, I will have a couple of weeks of vacation starting at the end of May. I’m looking forward to it!
