Well, I have happy news. I got a job! Yay! Got an email last night. I am SO relieved. And it's a job doing mainly Medical Malpractice cases, which is one of my top 5 favorite areas of law. It's a fascinating area.
I have looked at maybe 10,000 pages of medical records over the years, or more, and thus I have some facility with reading those suckers and figuring them out.
Another nice aspect to this job is that it will be 30 hours a week, at least for the moment, so I have some flexibility on the hours and can be here for Mother until she's back to full functioning. I'm a little concerned about leaving her all day but she says she will be OK. I will only be 20 minutes away, in Buckhead.
Today is my brother's birthday and he is 53! Wow, he is old. [evil chuckle, bwahahahaha...]
When we were kids he was always my defender and my champion, despite the fact that we fought like, well, siblings, all the time. Now he always has my back and for that I am immensely grateful. He doesn't call too often, or do exactly what we expect, but no matter. He is there when we need him, which is all that counts.
Michael and I had fun yesterday at the international farmer's market, buying little fun items for Bruce for his birthday. I resisted the urge to go buy him a shirt. He's coming this weekend and we can celebrate his birthday then.
Bruce at my house, cooking, which is what he enjoys, second only to hanging out with Michael...
