David is Coming Home!

I got a letter from my brother, , earlier. He wrote to let me know he has finally been given a discharge date. He will be home October 7, 2008! He will finally get to hold and she will get to know her uncle.

I am SO excited and happy he is finally going to have his freedom back and I can hardly wait until he gets home. I have missed him so much these past six years – while he has been locked up.

I have also been worried sick about him since everything that happened between him and the Aryan Brotherhood. There was quite a while where they were threatening to kill him and the state had to keep moving him around to different prisons to keep him safe.

I was not there for him as much as I should have been while he has been locked up, but I will be there for him when he gets out. I feel like I have to get to know my little brother all over again. I want to help him turn his life around and keep him out of trouble. I think I may let him live with me for a while so I can keep a watchful eye on him.

Her sons both have their fathers, but Sarah’s biological father is not a part of her life. has stepped up to take the role of her father figure. asked me if I would raise Sarah if anything should ever happen to her. I was profoundly touched by her request. It is not every day that someone asks you to be prepared for something as important as raising a child. I gladly accepted.

I Quit My Job

My last shift at the machine shop ended a little while ago. I put in my notice a little over a week ago. I was offered a job making $2.50 more per hour plus bonus and benefits. I start this coming Monday. It is another customer service job; I am optimistic about this one though. I can go somewhere with this company1.

I enjoyed working at the shop. It was a low stress environment. Everyone was laid back, especially the people on night shift. I would like to go back eventually. However, I need insurance due to an issue I do not want to discuss at this time and the shop does not offer the level of insurance I may need.
