Points of joy

M's girlfriend has moved in. He asked us a couple of weeks ago if she could move in since she is paying $500 a month rent for a bedroom in a friends house and she has spent more time at our house than her own. They have been dating 7 months now and are planning for the future. She loves him regardless of his past and realizes the limitations and restrictions he will have forever. 

Funny kind of sorta... So he had to register in the state he works in because of the C SIL and that state placed him tier 2 with 25 years on the list but he can petition to be off in 10 years. So actually better than the life he has here. He can move to that state and be off the registry in as little as 10 years! Not bad! 

Speaking of the C SIL and her insanity. Seems most of the family has written her rants off as a crazy person. M has done his time and that is in his past. The BIL took the kids to see our in-laws for Christmas this past weekend, without her, and everything was fine. 

Anyway, so B has moved in, and they are happy. They are looking for houses and saving up money. 

The past couple of days we have been snowed in. We got about 11 inches of snow Sunday. Both girls  were here so the "kids" spend Monday morning sledding on our hill. LOL! 

M called on his way to work at 4:30 am. His truck slipped on some black ice and he spun out and hit the median. He is ok, he is shook up but he is driving home. Slowly. The tow truck driver said it was a tire issue and not to waste money on the tow. So he is limping home and hopefully can have it repaired locally for less money than involving the insurance company. 

I am tired. But grateful that he is ok!
