I'm hoping to become more regular with my posting again. I've been swamped with work stuff, but am starting to see the light again.
We're back on planning and today we paid off the DJ, photobooth, and paid a chunk on the Photographer, as well as bought/paid for P's ring. We also got more supplies we need (almost everything, actually) for our popcorn bar.
On top of that, Patrick received a job offer which he was looking forward to getting, however the pay is less than he was expecting it to be and he had another opportunity related to going back to school come up, which seems to be a better fit. He's doing well with his transition and only has 9 days until he's officially retired. I've loved having him here with me each day, but I'm really seeing that he's developing the need for something more (school, hobby, something....) so hopefully he'll find that soon.
My brother and his GF and her 2 kdis came to visit last week and we went to the texas state fair... perfect timing since today Big Tex (the 52 foot icon of the state fair) caught fire and burnt down. Yikes. Got a pic of all 4 kids in front of it though before he was gone.

P's exwife is giving us issues. She split up with her longtime partner/fiancee back in June and started dating some other girl right after. 3 weeks later they got engaged, and now they are etting married 2 weeks before us. Everyone in the family is sure it's a race and is all upset about it. I'm not. I figure if she's this good at racing to the altar, she'll probably be just as good about racing to the divorce lawyer
That about wraps it up in my world. Things are going well and I hope to post some pics here shortly.
Hope you all are doing well and I'm about to dive into the boards and catch up on everyones stuff. LOL
