I met God!

He goes by the name of Bob. I went back to work yesterday for the first time in almost 5 months. I must look like a total train wreck!!! Bob is a regular at my work, so I have known him for almost 4 years now. He's a local, successful businessman who knows a lot of people. He asked me how I was doing, how Phil is doing, we talked about the girls for a while. He was very complimentary about how amazingly I have "bounced back" after having two kids so close in age (he must have been WASTED....damn beer goggles). He said "how did you get so skinny so fast", and I had to walk away to compose myself from laughing so hard. By this time I KNOW he's hammered....no one has ever referred to me as "skinny". Anyway, he asked me if I was interested in possibly spending Saturday at the Hilton. No...not with him, with Phil!!! His very good friend is the GM of a Hilton. He thought it would be nice if Phil and I got "away" for a night and relaxed. He made a call to his friend and got us a complimentary room for Saturday night.

Phil called his parents, and they are going to come and stay at our house that night and watch the girls.

Really Bob is a super nice guy, and is always doing things like this for others. When Phil lost his job back in November, Bob called him and offered him a temporary position at his company to help us out while Phil looked for another job. He's just that kind of a guy. He's God in my book right now!!!!

Don't have to ask us twice if we want a free room for the night......

Thank you God....I mean Bob. And thank you to Grandma and Grandpa for coming to watch the girls.
