I have started embracing this principle. Things at work just keep changing. Uncertainty is in the air. There is only one (1) manager left on the team from when I started 3 1/2 years ago. I guess I'll just keep showing up until they tell me otherwise.
So, back to the weekend. We had a good time with Jake & Megan on Friday night playing pinochle. Reminded me of good times with my mom. The kids were laughing about some silly thing they saw on YouTube and Ken was trying to keep up. I just sat back and enjoyed them all. Today Michael had a soccer game. They lost again, but Michael had a good game, and played the whole first half and about half of the second half. One of his good friends (who also has issues with playing time) had a great assist on our only goal. Makes the "benchers" feel good when the only goal was scored when they were in the game. After the game we came home, and in hopeful anticipation, started going through the house. We each started with our bedrooms. We took 8 big garbage bags of clothes to Goodwill. The kids also did some deep cleaning, that just means move the bed and vacuum. While it was work, we were all in good spirits and talking about "when we move."
Tonight Ken and I are going out with my friend Bekah (from Ken's work) and some others. I'm not sure if any of the party pooper "young chicks" will show up, but that's ok. We'll dance the night away.
Michael has another game tomorrow (not too early). Then we'll just relax and get ready for another week at work.
Hope you all have a great weekend. Post your comments and let me know what's up.

Sounds like you guys had a great weekend so far. We're just getting ready for winter here...and for Sarah coming home for next weekend. Too bad you guys are so far away, we're having a big birthday celebration on Thursday for the 7 October birthdays. OK, if you look in the family directory, you'll only see 6 "locals", but my son's girlfriend's birthday was yesterday.
You're absolutely right. Enjoy your time away from work as much as possible. Leave the misery at the door when you're leaving work, but try to take some of the 'home happiness' back to work to keep your attitude "up" as much as possible.
Hope all works out for Tacoma. It'll be good to have you guys almost home again.

I completely understand the "uncertainty in the air" at work. I have a feeling that the the same feeling will be hanging over me shortly. Since in anticipation of "the move" you are already cleaning house. I had a great time with you guys this weekend even though I may have caused Ken to go deaf. We love playing cards and though I don't know how to play pinochle maybe the whole family can come over and have dinner and play cards at our house in two weekends. Next weekend I have a camporall to attend should be loads of fun. Let me know what you think. Maybe we can play hearts or spades I may be really bad but I have at least played those games. see you soon
