March 6, 2012

Crazy things come quick.
Aly got a job with her brother at Dunkin Donuts in the last of December.  She is doing very well and in fact has been offered a shift leader's position.  She goes in at 5 am and so far has had no problems getting up and going.  I am so happy that she is functioning perfectly normal.
She also has started dating a very sweet boy.  He is the nephew of my friend.  I promised Aly that on her one year sober anniversary I would get a matching tattoo with her.  My friend's nephew is a very talented tattoo artist and came over January 28th to do the tattoos.  He and Aly began dating a couple of days later.   I like this kid because he has never been into drugs or alcohol and I feel like he will be a good influence on her.
Just recently I received a bonus from work and finally was able to help my baby son purchase a vehicle that he can rely on for transportation.  He sunk most of his paychecks into an old hunk of just that sat in the driveway for months on end.  We sold it on Craig's list for $900 and I gave him another $900 and he purchased a 1991 Ford F150 from an old man down the street.  The old man was the original owner and took meticulous care of the truck so I know it is in very good condition.  Alex is tickled.
I haven't anything out of my oldest son since Christmas.  He borrowed $300 and I think he is embarrassed to call because he can't pay it back.  Oh well, I'll let him stew a little bit and I'll tell him not to worry about it.
