Chase's Job

Well Chase has started working again. He finished up his crusher job in December, put out resumes and made phone calls for the last couple months trying to land something in a new field. Plumbing. He wants to get on and apprentice with someone so he can learn and work at the same time. I didn't mind him taking months off, after his last job he deserved it. And plus he was gone ALL the time with his last job so I loved having him home.

Well, none of the plumbing jobs bit. He got a job back out at the Waterton Shell Plant working as a Scaffolder. Which is a drive everyday but he has lots of friends who go out and even 2 of his brothers work out that way so he car pools and it works out. A job where my husband can be home every night again? YAY!!!

Well 2 days in, the 'YAY' stopped quickly. Chase does NOT get to come home every night as originally thought by both of us. They told him that he had to stay at a hotel in Pincher Creek (nearest town) and get shuttled into work with all the other guys. He would be MAYBE allowed to go home about 3 times in his 10 day shift. He works 10 days on, 4 days off. He was not happy about this news and knew I wouldn't be either. :( Glad he's working, sad I won't see him every night. He is still talking with one plumbing company and if they tell him they will hire him he would take it in a second. It would be a decrease in pay compared to the job he has just started. But really he hasn't been working for 3-4 months so any pay will be more then what we've been getting! Plus, I like having him home. I kinda like him.... ;)

Thats the scoop. Yay for work, Boo for being gone again. Just me and the dogs at home again. Oh and p.s..................................... Molly is in heat again......................... last time I was watching the dogs alone while Chase was gone to work, Molly got knocked up. I have been VERY set on keeping them separated, even if they bark at me and get mad. We do NOT need mutt puppies again!! Mojo's ummmm.. 'stuff' will be snipped as soon as our taxes come in. Hopefully next week!!!! Pray for no puppies please.... I appreciate it.. :)

Surprise

Chase and I try to go on a date night once a week if we have the money too and if we don't have any other prior engagements. We usually go out on fridays and at least go to dinner, maybe a movie, or else we go to dinner, go rent or buy some movies and come home and watch them together. Well last Friday Chase was running some errands and I was getting ready to go out on our date. When he walked in the door he had White roses for me! :) Chase is the first guy to give me flowers since I was in High School and I've had relationships pretty much every year since then, but no flowers or surprises; so when he gets me flowers I LOVE IT and I'm SO surprised because it has not happened often for me in the past. These flowers mark the third or fourth bouquet I have gotten from him since we have been together. :) I loved them, and I love him..........................





Thanks for the flowers babe, I love them!
