Its been hectic, found out supervising other technicians is like babysitting two year olds....they have little common sense and when they want something....they want it NOW!....or they have a fit!!
As for the shoulder, it's doing well, the healing is taking place like it’s supposed to. My sinus surgery was 5 weeks ago today and I have to go back in and get a small (about the size of a grain of wheat) scar snipped out and then I am done with that.
As for Sunshine and I...we are doing well...much to the chagrin of a self proclaimed expert on recovery…ah but we shan’t go there it will only stir up the silt in my clear flowing stream.
Now if there are any experts on 15 almost 16 year old girls who think they are in love with a 19 year old jerk we should talk. The jerk is living with a 22 year old single mother, they have been pregnant and engaged, she lost the baby, she has kicked him out, broken the engagement, and taken him back in and he is still chasing our 15year old…and she (our 15yr old) is so in love… she doesn’t care that he is sleeping with a tramp, she just knows “she loves him.”
Me thinks I need to borrow your 2 x 4 and thump some sense into our daughter, and then bust it over his head and tell him to stay away.
We bought tickets for two of our daughters, the fiance of one, and the significant other of the second, to come for a week this summer from Hartford CT. My niece is getting married, and my family has never met the fiance and SO of either of my daughters. We met them on our trip to CT this last summer.
Sunshine and I went to Phoenix for a week last month, and are taking vacation next month to do some fishing (the first time since the affair). Then a week in August when the kids come back for my niece's wedding. Then another week around Thanksgiving for hunting and meat processing.
With my arm healing up, am starting a project in the woodshop this weekend, the first of many that Sunshine has lined up for me. It will be good to get back to that hobby again.
Try telling your daughter what a standup guy he is and how you really respect him for "taking care of his problems".....LOL Push her to invite him for dinner with the family. Drool all over the guy
Funny I always loved the guys my parents hated, and hated the guys my parents loved! Go figure....hehehehe
I love the idea, but really don't know if I could go through with dinner...I would rather take him fishing, a DEEP lake, and hungry fish.
If he pissed me off in my own home, I would probably revert to my military training....nuff said.
Ok, those are my thoughts and feelings about the scumbag...I am smarter than that...besides, he had his chances to come into our home before the 22 year old single mom was involved.
The closest he came to trying to allow us to know him, and him to know us, was to suck up to my wife whenever she encountered him in public.
He has already demonstrated that he is a serial cheater...as we have seen him with another woman while he was engaged, and chasing our 15 year old.
Invite a serial cheater into my home....I don't know if I am ready for that, after all, my ex-best friend, the OM.... I knew him for 14 years, and never suspected him of being a predator and serial cheater. When it happened, my wife was his fourth conquest in seven years...this in a town of 5000.
Dave, scare the young 'man'....legally he has no business with your daughter.... she is still legally a 'child' and he is an adult....how do you spell "statuory rape"?????
That fact has already been explored and explained, age of consent in Nebraska is 17. The threats have been made...and ofcourse when our daughter heard about it...she begins her own threats and thoughts of running away...
Dave, thanks for the update. I too was wondering about you. Glad to hear that things are going well for you.
About those employees...it doesn't seem to matter if they're high-school dropouts or people with graduate degrees. If there's a boss, his/her job is to be babysitter, confessor, counselor, facilitator, and emergency fill-in substitute. I'm all for servant leadership, but there's a limit.
That where it gets murky.... age of consent is not a legal age...
For example: children in NC can drop out of school at 16... However the parents are still responsible for their children until they turn 18... try to explain to a parent of a 17 year old that it would still be their responsibility if their child were to do some illegal stuff.... lol.... In NC the age of consent and the legal age are 2 different entities...
