My Story Heart of a Hero
#20: Today at 04:04:15 AM
How IS the new job going? You were saying that it was salaried so you expected to be working additional hours (I know EXACTLY what that means.... more hours, no additional pay....) Hopefully, there is at least some form of Comp Time rule in place.

Your fishing trip sounds wonderful. Where did you go? My parents would go to Trappers Lake or one other close to them when they were at their cabin near Meeker but since they moved to Nevada, that is all in the past. My mom turned 90 in December so my partner and I took a trip to Vegas to surprise her. We had said that we were not going to be able to make it as the flights were SO expensive (they were when we looked) a getting the time off was a challenge but, we looked again a couple weeks before the date and the prices were WAY down so we told my dad that we were coming as a surprise, booked the flights, a hotel, rental car, the works and the day before her birthday, showed up at their door. I thought I might have to perform CPR when mom came to the door and saw us there. Ironically, I had ordered flowers to be delivered that same day with the note that we wished her a happy birthday and that we were sorry that we woudldn't be able to make it to the party. They were delivered about an hour before we arrived.....  ;D

What is the 75 hard? It sounds..... difficult? I'm hitting the gym twice weekly, going to cardio/aerobic classes a couple times a week and commute by bicycle (about 8 miles round trip) so that is keeping me from becoming a couch potato. I turned 63 a week ago so sedentary life is an issue I do my best to avoid, lest I start to rust and rot from the inside.....

A "friend" will not "stand by you" no matter what you do. That is NOT a friend. That is an enabler. That is an accomplice.
A REAL friend will sit you down and tell you to your face to stop being a firetrucking idiot before you ruin your life and the lives of those around you.
