An Update On Sam





It feels like things are finally coming together for Sam. He's got a great job making fairly good money, looks like he might have a government grant for school, and he's finally decided what he wants to do....at least for now.

He and I spent the whole of Tuesday together (his only day off). We went to Gateway Community College and got information on the respiratory therapy course they offer. He needs about a years worth of pre-recs before he can start...he enrolled yesterday for those at EMCC. We won't know until May how much his grant is. If it's enough, he may quit work and do school full time. That would be great. So school wise, he's finally on the right track!

Barron and I took him out to celebrate last night at Ruby Tuesday. They have an awesome salad bar and great burgers. Plus we had a buy one get one coupon! We had a wonderful time just eating and talking with each other. We were there for over two hours! It was the best.

Barron has been working alot of hours and I think it's finally starting to catch up with him...both emotionally and physically. He hurts all over, he's tired, and he needs some time off. Unfortunately, that won't be happening for a while. Looks like he may have to work Saturday AND Sunday this week. Poor guy.

We are hoping to get to Vegas sometime next month...once Honeywell is finished the project their working on now that keeps him there so much. And our plan is to drive to Seattle sometime this summer. We haven't done a big drive like that is some time so it will be interesting. Keep your fingers crossed for us!

That's all for now. Hope everyone is well and happy. Love you all!
