*This is me complaining so I don't dwell on it*

Wow, and I'm really really grumpy..... My boss turns out to be a Mean (and incredibly egotistical) Drunk. Who happens to own a bar...
The one in which I wash dishes (and do random tasks for the cooks, which I'm not one, BTW even after he said thats what he'd start me as.)
I showed up an hour early on my first day, did everything anyone ever asked of me, took one break right before I went home, and never stopped working for anything, and still I get yelled at by my boss. Apparently, I was supposed to know that my superior wasn't supposed to be playing pool with one of the patrons, and that I had more to do (this was 11 at night) even though I didn't know what, and when I went to find my superior (to find out what to do) my boss walks up (apparently believing I was playing pool too.) walks us into the kitchen and tells me that that kind of behavior will get me fired (even though I don't even work for him yet (technically since I wasn't one the clock)). So he's saying doing my job (or at the very least trying to) will get me fired? I didn't even find out he was going to pay me for my "training" today until closing time. Today was not good, but if I get paid I'll keep going back.

Hmmmm... Mormons showed up at my house this morning (who didn't seem to know very much about their own religious doctrine) trying to (I think) console me... Hmmm..... Is Faithlessness and doubting God Exists really a normal human reaction to Loss? They said so... but I don't really believe it. They offered to help us, so I can't really complain about them, but they were a bit odd to say the least... I don't know.

Verne showed up again, this time telling me I should get rid of ALL my pets. From a normal point of view it seems more like a burden, but it is actually quite the opposite for me, plus Mum will probably haunt me if I gave away Peanut [her favorite chihuahua] and the rest of the dogs are kinda gimpy, Sammy (full name Samwise Gamgee) has a stunted back leg, Toby is an antisocial well, I'm not sure what kind of dog he is.... he looks like a Australian Terrier, but with less fur. William the Rat [my Chihuahua mix] is a bit slow and seems to not be able to see very well. Daisy May isn't mine to get rid of, but I'm about to if the woman refuses to call back. She's a pretty dog, but she eats like a COW! The last dog at my house right now is Hayate a little jet black Retriever mix, who belongs to James and if owner leaves he does too, but not until.

I love my critters, and Verne's always been trying to convince me to not keep pets (even though he has a cat himself) I think I won't listen to him on this one. I mean it's not like I'm going out to get a new dog every day, and if one of my pets die I'm not about to run out and replace them, not that I could. I think I will take his other advice... getting rid of STUFF, which I seem to have alot of, but now for the fun part... What goes and what stays? Hmmm.... I guess I'll figure that out when I get there...

BTW Thank you everyone who gave me recipes... When I figure out how to work the PM system better I'll thank each of you individually.

Now I sleep,
Tim

I've been very busy the last two days, considering that I now attend High School again. That in itself was horribly tiring before, but now with work it's borderline Insane. My kind of insane! It's not horrible, actually, I spend half of the school day in the computer lab doing remedial credit classes. And I have teachers who understand what's going on with me, and don't mind too much when I take a nap. I try to only nap in the computer lab... Mostly because I can do more of that at home, and I can more easily disguise my napping...

The Churches finally came up with some money's and the Teachers at the High School are going to be taking a second collection (less spur of the moment this time) sometime this week. This time it's for Mum's Cremation, which we already have a decent amount going towards it and may have more from Mrs. Diane's church.... hmmmm. Haven't heard from Jenny lately, and I actually want to talk to her, So I can find out what her church got. I got the Receipt for this month's rent.

Now I'm going to move back to my blog (which I have been neglecting) Thank you for being a friend.

So concludes the Chronicles of Life according to Tim, Exactly 2 weeks to the day of Mum's death, My life is looking brighter than I could have ever hoped for. Not that I won't have bad days, but I Will Survive! That was the legacy My Mum truly wanted to pass down to me, Survival. And indeed she did. Thank You Mum, and thank you everyone who has helped me along the way, in any way shape or form, thanks also to those who haven't had the chance to help, but will in the future. Thank you. May Mum Rest In Peace.

Goodnight,
Tim

I am so sorry to hear this sad news.  I lost my own Mother not to long back~ I'll pray very hard for you and your family, and I'll pray for as many blessings as the Lord will send to you.  May God be with you through these hard times and give you the strength that you will need.
