Now I'm wondering if this was on purpose. Just to irritate you a little more?

Of course that wouldn't be very smart, now would it? But YAY for heat &

cooking in a kitchen!

The reason stated: He got a speeding ticket.

Speeding to where?

I don't know, but definitely NOT HERE! LOL

BJ - maybe so. The way you describe it, it sounds right.

He goes days and days of not showing up here. He is at his sudden overflow

of " other jobs " . One of the only prerequisites to getting my contract

was - - thou shalt have no other jobs until this is completed. At the

ime - I thought this would take a couple of months, so I didn't think that

was impossible. But I never expected him to be " other job free " for 7

months, so I haven't said much about his having other jobs.

Maybe it IS the money................ never thought of that! Thanks, BJ!!

We do have a licensing board, I'm sure. I wouldn't know anything about it

though. I know this guy is licensed, and that is considered one of the best

in the area.... talent-wise. Nobody ever said anything about him being

quick.

And he's not. LOL

Actually, it's unfortunate that he's kept his

" family jewels " in tact, fore he will eventually

the gene pool with others just like him.

(Unless he already has).

I do NOT know how you maintained this long...I would be out of my

ever-loving gourd....and my dh would be getting the brunt of it.

Just reading this pi**** me off.

" Bob " is lucky he has his " family jewels " in tact.

Good for you sweetie, he certainly deserved it a long time ago, and you

deserve so much better. Hopefully everything will proceed well from now on.
