My week of mostly lurking

Boy if it ain't one thing these days it's another. Of course after taking away my nieces child on monday it sorta puts it all in perspective. Especially when you factor in my niece this has been a pretty interesting week. Monday of course took away the kid and have talked to sister, social worker, potential foster homes, etc, pretty much everyday this week. Tuesday had a meeting to talk about the new curriculum I will be teaching next school year. Will be teaching Computer Applications instead of Industrial Technology. Wednesday got a part time summer job. Will be working about 20 hours a week as a Line Cook at a local country club. It is very much a throw back to my youth when I used to work as a cook all the time. It won't be overly challenging but hey $10/hour working 2 1/2 days a week. Should hopefully keep me out of trouble and give me some extra spending money. Thursday, took my "lady" friend out for her birthday and (drum roll please) met 2 of her 3 kids for the first time. It went well but I think I was more scared about that than I was my bypass surgery, at least for the surgery they put me under. I actually felt like before I met them. They are nice kids and I'm looking forward to getting to know them better. Although I still haven't met her youngest (10 year old son). Today I am going to rest and nap as I didn't get home from my "date" last night until almost 2 am. I'm a little nervous right now because I may be falling for this woman and it seems to be developing fairly quickly. But that is a whole different and probably much more confusing post. You all have safe and fun weekend!

Hey Peter, congrats on the job. Being a total "foodie", I always love to hear about chefs and food--- even though I can't eat much anymore. I hate seafood but I still love to watch any cooking show that prepares it- it's the techniques, you know? Anyway, glad to hear things are going well with your new lady. Ah, what the heck, go ahead and fall- it's fun!! Meeting her kids is a very good sign- she must be feeling the same way about you! Wishing you lots of love and happiness! Michele

Looks like things are going well! Glad to hear it! Have a super holiday!

Peter........Sounds like you're gettin some action! whoo hoo! I'd tell you to have a good weekend, but I think you've got plans for that already! C

What an adventurous week. Emotionally draining too. First of all, obviously this "lady" is a bad influence. Staying out until 2 a.m. Isn't that past your curfew? (((hug))) -Pam
