dsiXL

So.... we are on Spring Break this week and momma decided to get G a dsiXL ... I know, I like to spoil my kid, so what?  Is not like he throws stones to the neighbor's windows or steps on a cat's tail just to inflict pain.  I have a good kid.  I do.
 
His face when I gave it to him ... priceless!  Then he got an old ds that one of my friend's had given him after he lost his dsi last month ... and he set it up so we could chat, lol.  I think it is called "picto-chat" or something like that.
 
And he sends me these cute messages that just melt my heart!  ♥♥♥ This one particular message he has said before, but being that I love reading, seeing it written down, it just made me smile ... it said "if you were a rose, I would pick you!"
 
I love that boy!

moving

Well ... it happened ... my dad is moving out of my house.  I am getting my house back!  And I have so many changes in mind that I want to make!  I think they will keep me pretty busy for at least 2-3 months, lol
 
My sister finished moving - she is now in the south side of O-town.  Taking the expressway the drive is around 20-25 minutes.  Where my dad is moving to, is the west side of town.  A 10-15 drive through the expressway is the distance from my place on the east and his place.  Not bad.  I think this way we are not on top of each other but we are close enough to be of help to each other.
 
Dad is excited it seems.  Guess he needed his own space and Lord knows I needed mines.  I don't regret having him move in with me after ma' passed away.  It was the right thing to do at the time.  And now that he feels ready to move out, he is doing it on his own time.
 
In other news ... I am interviewing tomorrow for my own job.  Yeah, you read right.  I have been in an 'acting' status since November 2008.  With all the changes in the economy and government protocols and policies and procedures, well I had to apply for it and I did (of course) ... and my interview is tomorrow at 2:30pm.  I am crossing my fingers that this will imply some increase in my pay but I am not counting on it.  I mean, I am grateful that in this economy I still have a J.O.B.
