Family Week:

I did end up going to the last night of Brandon's family week. It was so good, I wish I would have gone all week. I asked if he has to do this again before he graduates from the program. He said no, and I said why not, I want to go again. It gave me a lot to think about about my own life. Brandon and I have talked about addictions in our lives. I have realized that I just replace one addiction with another whether it be alcohol, men or food. I think I'm going to do some more learning about AA and apply those principles in my life. And I do know that I want Lala to go to meetings with Brandon. She needs it for her addiction although when I tried to talk to her about it, she said no. But we'll see.

Another day at work today and it's my Friday. I still don't know if I train on Monday. I need to find out so I don't show up and get told to go home. Tuesday training is mainly for the night shift because it goes until 11:30 pm, and there is no way I can stay up that late. But Monday is my day off, so if I go to training I'm hoping they'll give me another day off. I'm told they don't want to give overtime, so I'm sure they will.

Ok, home from work, already hit Walmart, had supper and now have laundry to do. Wow, exciting night tonight. Then I have tomorrow off and work six days straight. I get to go to the training Monday and they have approved overtime for it. So payday will be nice, so I should have money to spend on the grandkids when I go to Colorado next month.
