HUMP DAY
This week is flying by so quickly!
The husband and I met with a financial advisor about the house, and after figuring up everything its given us pause as to whether we really want to do this right now. Our mortgage payment will increase significantly. Also, she advised we not do the rent-with-option to buy on the old house, but sell it. So, its given us some things to think about.
The husband is also concerned about work. His area has slowed down tremendously and he is not sure what they are going to do with him if the market slumps even more. He said it might mean a move to another location for him and he'd have to commute back-and-forth on weekends. I'm not liking that at all. I don't want a part time husband, lol, but I know you do what you got to do. My friend T has been doing it for years with her husband. Her husband works right over the border in OK and travels home every other weekend. I guess it can be done.
On our way back home, we stopped in at Popeyes, where the daughter has started working. She looked so cute in her uniform. Of course, the husband had to give her a hard time. She was very professional and kept it cool. She was already on a register. She had one uncomfortable moment. The couple that she stopped lieing for so they could secretly date, well the boy in the equation showed up last night and sat in his car next door to the resteraunt just staring into the establishment. It bothered her, and when she left she checked out her car to make sure he had not vandalized it. I am concerned. This is getting a bit out of hand and I'm not sure how to handle it. It is one thing to say things but when you start stalking someone because you're that upset with them, well that throws it into another category altogether. If he shows up again this evening where she works, I am going to have to step in and call his parents. I wish I could talk to him because he was one of the young men that came into my home and we sat and talked at length. At that time, he really seemed to be focused on getting somewhere in life. Since then, however, he's had a couple scrapes with the law. He is certainly not stable and I am concerned.
Today, promises to be another busy day at work. I am slowly nailing things off the desk and into the hopper. Having run ins with the team member that left customers. He apparently was not getting things done and they are not happy with it. So add that to my already intense workload. I drafted up an outline for the boss lady and we're to meet this morning and decide on workload reassignments. We have to do something. One other team member is having a personality issue with his customer and so we need to switch him. Quickly, lol. So it is going to be an interesting day.
Ok, I have a gripe. I have a lady temp in my office. What bugs me about her is the fact she gets in my space. When someone talks to me, I like keeping a healthy distance from them. But I feel like everytime she talks to me she gets too close. She also has a habit of pushing your arm and nudging you. I need to tell her because I realized yesterday that I was so focused on how much it annoyed me that I was not listening to her, LOL. But come on, why do you have to poke people. They are listening to you. Its AGGRIVATING.
Have a couple friends from my old team swinging by today and we're to go to lunch. I am looking forward to their visit. I miss them terribly. The new crew is nice but I've known these other ladies well ever since I was a petite 9/10, LOL. That was a long time agooooooooo!

With the way the market is these days...I wouldn't be willing to take a chance (But that's just me). As for your daughter's stalker I would go ahead and call the parents now before anything does happen. Hopefully you can defuse the situation before it does. The guy definitely sounds like bad news.

Hi Lynne,
I agree ... that guy that was "stalking" your daughter sounds like bad news. You're lucky that your daughter confided in you ... this situation obviously needs to be watched closely. As for the second thoughts about the new house, I guess that's only natural in the current environment. I keep thinking of your niece who said that your place "has potential." If you end up staying put, she'll have to find her "potential" elsewhere ... LOL ...
Best,

Sounds like life is rolling on, though not always according to plan. - Barbara

I think with your daughter and that guy, if he is stalking her, hanging out where she works with no purpose to be there, I'd call the police; if he has been in trouble with the law and has a record or is on probation, the last thing he wants is any trouble with them (provided he is trying to keep out of trouble); I'd keep a record too of if he is hanging somewhere where your daughter is, etc
