in other news

things i haven't posted about but need to:

- my sister is pregnant

- my grandmother--matriarch of the family, the core of it all--died on june 6th

- matt was laid off of work

i need to write about my grandmother and her death but i don't know when i will be able to. i guess this post is just to remind myself to do it. i have a lot to say about her.

i'm so happy my sister is pregnant! cousins are as good as siblings when they're that close (in age and geographically). plus she scored on the hand-me-downs with this timing.

as for matt, yeah--fck the hippodrome. we knew it was coming, but as ever, they literally told him "ok go home you're laid off now until further notice." the bastards. so we're on the hunt to get him the hell out of there for good, and in the meantime he's getting unemployment (a whole $200 a week) which i feel really weird about. but oh well. we have yet to discuss what we're going to do about my job... i really do not think he's up for being full-time dad. i think he's terrified, actually. i know i am not ready to leave her.
