Same 'ol same 'ol.....

Well, my hard work has paid off. Wednesday afternoon the district manager announced that I have been promoted to Assistant Manager. There are two people that have been there longer that are probably ticked... I love it...LOL...

Meanwhile, at home things are not so good. Rick has an old car parked on someone else's property, and they have been threatening to call the police if he doesn't come get it (he keeps putting it off). He still pays rent on a house in the town where he works, even though there is no gas or electric, because he just never *gets around to* cleaning all his junk out of it... My dining room is full of boxes of his junk... He is really testing my nerves... Not to mention the fact that after one great night he's back to falling asleep in the chair and not coming to bed until 3 or 4 in the morning... Long after I'm sound asleep...*sigh*... Oh well, this relationship has been good for my work life...LOL

My sister is getting married on Sunday. The service will be in her fiance's parents living room, with a "cowboy" theme... Which is cool, we all get to wear jeans...LOL The perfect couple will finally be official...

That old *Hawke urge* has been flaring up in a major way this week. He is the only one I have ever been able to lean on, the only one who would ever take over for me, and just let me follow... that is probably why I miss him the most when I am overwhelmed with life... his farm was always *the great escape*...(maybe the little girl in me still wants to curl up in daddy's lap and let him protect her...)
