Just a couple of things to catch up on-I quit my job and Jericho is engaged!
Yes I quit my job after only being there a little over a month. I gave them 2 and half weeks notice so my last day is actually the 10th. I feel they mislead me about what the job was really going to be and the hours leave a little to be desired. During my interview they reassured me that about 20% of my day would be helping out at the front desk and the bulk of my duties would be keeping the clinic clean, assisting the therapists and doing laundry. Well now about 75% of my day is at the front desk...not what I want to do at all!! I work from 3pm to 7pm which means I don't get home till 7:30ish and well it's just not working out for me...So I'm done. Oddly enough Davita called me last week on a job I had applied for over 2 months ago. So that interview is for this wednesday at 11am. We'll see what happens.
So yes, Jericho is engaged! Mike (we all call him Mikey) is a wonderful man, intelligent, has a great job and he loves my daughter.
She asked him of course, lol, my girl is anything but traditional!! They originally planned on getting married next fall but had already purchased plane tickets to Colorado some time ago for a visit to his parents. So now they have decided not to wait but to get married while they are there in a couple of weeks! Then they are planning a reception for family and friends next fall. I'm sad I can't be there for the actual marriage but they want wedding clothes and pictures and everything taken at the reception and she wants me to make her dress, which I'm excited about. Here in Washington you have to wait a minimum of 3 days after you get your marriage license to actually get married. There is no waiting period in Colorado and this way his parents can be part of it too!!
One other bit of news as well, Israel is coming to live with us for awhile-he is really struggling to make ends meet. We have always told him if he needed a place to stay till he got back on his feet he could come here, it's a 5 bedroom house for goodness sake! So he finally accepted. I know what it's like having to move in with your parents after your an adult and have been on your own for awhile but it's just a fact of life nowadays!! Anyway I'm sure it will be fine-he will pay rent and he gets food stamps so he can buy his own food. He is bringing his little dog, Matilda, that I love...not sure how the cats are going to like it at first but I'm sure they will get used to her in time.
