Jeepers! i don't come online for one night and i come back to 2 whole new pages! hehe

Welcome Becky!!

I had a very interesting offer from my father-in-law last night. We don't ever see him, he's not a very family type person i guess. We lived with him for a while before getting our own place and i was at odds with him a lot.. but we are civil and he gets along fairly well with DH, much better then his other kids.. anyway, we were complaining about our stupid car situation and he said he was going to get a new car soon and that we could have his old one. I'm not sure whether to be excited about it or cautious. its not so much that we'd owe him or anything, its more the fact that we have to have a working car really soon no matter what and have no idea how long he's gonna take to do this. We've just come into some money that would enable us to fix our old car but then we don't even really know if its fixable. also his car prolly uses more fuel. It runs well but its also old... I guess i'm also trying to look at the long term benefits aswell.
And of course there's the fact that we never see him, like ever so not really sure what to make of it all, its all caught me a bit off guard, i'm so used to doing just about everything for ourselves and not really getting help from anyone.
Maybe i should just be happy about it and start relaxing hehe.

so so busy! it never ends! got 3 sets of people to see over this week and each one i'm cooking half the meal or all of it so i've got so much to remember, take this out of the freezer at this time on this day, put that in the fridge then, have this ready by that time, that sort of thing hehe
I'll likely be offline over the next couple of days too, though i'll try to get on to see how everyone is.

Merry Christmas guys!!
