Turningpoint?

There are changes in the air.
Our president delivered one terrific speech last night. I don't think he could have been any clearer on this Health plan thing.
Republican Joe Wilson's ridiculous "you lie!" outburst showed the ignorance and the complete unwillingness to cooperate with this new president. Not to mention the fact that he completely disrespected President Obama.
It's beyond me, how so many people just do not get it. Or are unwilling to get it.
Why?
What does anyone have to lose??

Just unbelievable!

Last night we got some well deserved sleep. Even though Bugs worked late. Boo went to sleep at a reasonable time. Her breathing treatments are really working. I didn't give her her Claritin yesterday at all. She was much calmer, and I only had to scrape her off the ceiling once. :>)

So it seems that life for my daughter is slowly changing for the better.
I am still holding my breath, but there is definitely something going on.
As I mentioned before, Boo was accepted for Medicaid. Yesterday Bugs got a packet in the mail about Peach Care.
Plus she got a long letter from Court about what's going on with Daddy.

Daddy was approved for this work program. We don't know when this starts or started, but initially he gets 5 week days to find himself a job. He leaves the jail at 8 every day and is supposed to come back at 5. Once he does find a job, and I understand that he will be in deep shit if he doesn't, Bugs will be paid $200 a week. This is to catch up with what he owes AFTER he pays her the $1400 they went to court over initially.
$200 a week will go a long way. I'm thinking: DAYCARE!!
And if she hauls her little butt and applies for the Daycare subsidy program, she will have a few pennies left for other things, such as gas and groceries.

She's off today and tomorrow, and I hope she will use her time wisely.

We are speculating about all this. We wonder if the fact that she received Medicaid and applied for other services, the State got off their butts and started the work program procedure.
It might also be that his parents are getting REALLY anxious about being able to see Boo again, and perhaps they've been on his ass for that.

Just speculation, but you wonder.

And then there is something I'm not supposed to tell. *LOLOL* yeah right.

Apparently Bugs' old boss (And PH's current boss) and his wife are definitely getting a divorce.
The guy is fed up with his life and disappeared for five days. No one knew where he was. But he called PH and told him he was somewhere on the Gulf coast, trying to get a deal with a friend of his to start a new business down there, and he wondered if PH would be interested to run the place.

Now...this guy has had more pipe dreams than anyone, always looking for that next opportunity, always running into problems, but now that the couple is truly splitting, it might be something to ponder.

Bugs is ambivalent, but also secretly excited...(We're going to live at the beach!!! (never mind the frigging hurricanes))
She asked me how we would feel about it. And frankly, I feel GREAT! *lol*
Not that I wouldn't miss them, but right now we could use some peace and quiet around here.
And who the hell knows, moving for us wouldn't be much of a problem. We've been known to move at the drop of a hat!

We are all itching to get out of this town I guess. Wheelie dragging along, he doesn't care.

We shall see. In the meantime, Bugs is getting used to her new job, seems to enjoy it a little more, is gaining weight, becoming a little more/better focused.

Boo is developing, and perfecting, her two-year-old personality.
Lordy!
This kid can make ya feel real baddddd.
She can cry and make you feel sorry like a professional. And it's taking all my energy to go with the flow and not give in to her tantrums.
Most of the time things work out well. Wheelie snickering in the background, or just leaving the room, as he can't stop from laughing.
Not fair!
But she is a character, that little stinker.

So there you have it, the new from Lake Wobegon

SGKMJ!
