Larry’s Log

I got my ADSL line (actually, it’s IFITL, but I’ll go into that later) installed this past Thursday and promptly got too busy to do any journaling or blogging. Things are going very well in Lawrenceville. My plans had been to keep my old job and telecommute when my presence wasn’t absolutely needed in Chattanooga. That plan has changed. A company with a local office has offered me a job doing the same thing I was doing plus doing some things that I’ve always wanted to do for a good deal more money. I took the job.

Also some of you may recall me mentioning my mother dying on Christmas Day this past year. She and my father had been married for just short of 52 years. After Mom passed away I was afraid Dad would just give up on life and fade away himself. He almost did but about a month ago he came to the realization that that isn’t what Mom would want for him and he started seeing a lady that taught my Mother’s Sunday School class. Dad has recovered from his depression and they are getting married next weekend. I’ve had a number of relatives calling me concerned about the suddenness of this marriage but I see my father happy again, my future step mother appears to be a very nice and caring lady and at 75 my dad has recieved more than my mother dying lately as a lesson in mortality. I don’t see a problem with all this. I know my father loved my mother and I know my mother isn’t coming back. I want Dad to be happy again.
