Alex Update!

[gillacutty]

Well here is an update on Alex...Lets see last we were together....He was on his way down herer to AZ. He arrived.  Very humble & happy to be here.  Don't get excited , that only lasted a few days!  We told him to just sit back & relax! We want you to just help us with the dogs for now.  You don't need to jump into the job stuff as yet. Plenty of time for an outside job later. Right now just hang out with us. Help us with the dogs, learn some dog training, pick out a dog for yourself.  That was not good with him.  He felt a little better, made a few calls back to Cali, & was ready to get a job & go on with his life.  Still no drivers license, still no helpful attitude, still no idea what he is doing!  So we asked him if he could do this with these rules & only using phone 1 hr a day.  He said he didn't think he could handle it & wanted to return to Cali.  So I took him to the bus station & sent him on his way.  Part of me was heart broken.  I wanted him to be able to stick it out here.  But another part of me was very relieved! I felt more lite & happy, able to handle the day to day problems of our normally boring life!  Remembering why I moved here to AZ in the 1st place. Quiet, not rushed lifestyle with husb, in-laws & 9 dogs!  As of this writing he is happy in Cali. living with a friend & looking for a job.  I love him.
