Feels Like Monday

The last few weeks have been boring as hell; this AM changed everything. I woke up early and renewed the insurance on the work truck, it's also child tax day; money and transportation issues resolved.

Heath was dashing around trying to find labourers for a concrete pour and was attempting to reschedule for tomorrow; I dont' think so! We are already 3 days behind on this project and possibly lost the job to follow because Marilyn is on a tight schedule. I found one carpenters online and Heath picked up Kevin Johnson, the concrete was booked for 3:30pm and the crew was finally finished at the site by 8:30pm! I was not impressed because Mayco suggested they order a pump truck and estimated it would take 1 hour... well, it took 3 hours @ $120/hr which means we are now another $360+ over budget, the client will NOT be impressed!! I don't even wanna talk about how much money we've gone over with the wages; it's not pretty and it's not like I haven't made Heath aware of the situation, he just doesn't seem to care.

Almost have all the planning done for Dennis' party, paid for the room rental and handed out the invitations for Friday. Just need to plan food, order the DQ cake and buy a cellphone.

Received a check in the mail from FMEP, child support payment from Wanda; pleasantly surprised that she's actually paid. I thought for sure she'd choose to spend the two days in jail just to be spiteful. Hopefully she stays consistant and we can start saving money. Still waiting to see if she's gonna bother sending Dennis anything for his birthday, or not.

In watching the News last night I was taken back by the idea that Vancouver has proposed that they build safe Crack Inhalation Sites; seriously?! These drug addicts get free shelter, free food and now they get their own Crack Shacks!! Just how far are people gonna go in a self defeating manner of enabling addicts? There is no "rock bottom" because at this rate their lives will never become 'unmanagable'... they make poor choices and others coddle them and don't hold them accountable... so, they have no reason to change!!
