Happy Birthday Jen!~
I had a lovely conversation with Misty last night, who is my cousin Sara Jane's sister. It was good to talk to her, it's been probably about a year or so. I didn't learn much by talking to her, only that what she says is exactly what Tammy has said that she said in past conversations. I've learned that the girls' dad doesn't want them because he doesn't want to pay child support. That is sad. We won't get them for some time it seems. I also learned that the person Sara Jane wants to have the girls be with is the sister of her mom's best friend of their click for years now, and she happens to be the one who has provided the ice she has been hooked on now for a while. That would make sense why she wants her to have the girls, so she can reap the benefits of seeing the girls without having to do what the state might require her to do. Our system in Oregon sucks really. Family doesn't come first, it's what Sara Jane wants and who she wants to have take care of her children while she is doing God knows what. To listen to the case worker yesterday on the phone just keep sighing was like he's up tight and is tense about doing his job. It was a weird feeling and hard to describe what he made me feel like.
Went to breakfast this morning with Michelle, Genny and Sabrina at a place called Dotty's on 2nd and Oak. It was nice, but they didn't have any potatoes. They had instead potato cakes, and they were good. Not greasy at all. Had a ham and cheese omlette with wheat toast. It was kind of dry, but fresh and home made. Coffee was strong but most people like it that way.
I will be glad when the end of the day is here. I am keeping myself paced so I don't run out of things to do, then I'll have to resort to reading my book. That was my intent, but it feels weird being at work and reading a book when I would not be normally allowed to do such a thing. I've gotten some live transfer calls and leads which I am not supposed to get! I emailed and she said I wouldn't but I have since continued to receive them.
We are going out to see Sherry tomorrow. She has a new swing set for Taty and the girls to play on. I haven't seen or talked to her in a while, since before Taty's birthday party. She wasn't there then either. It will be good to see her and then I'm going to meet this new Avon lady and go to my Aunt's to see her and Bruce. Should be a nice and relaxing weekend. I need to clean on Sunday and do laundry of course. That's about all~
