I just don't know why he always has to live in the tropics. First Japan, then Pensacol, Fl, now California! But he loves it. When he comes home for Christmas he cries about the cold and I tell him to suck it up, he's a marine. He got a $20,000.00 bonus for signing up longer and bought a Mercedes. He said "It wasn't the most expensive one, and it doesn't have all the bells and whistles" like he's explaining he really isn't pampering himself. He's trying to buy his first home but when he bids lower someone swoops in and gives the asking price. Learning process. This is the one that has the incredible writing talent, but I've decided to just let him tell me when/if he wants about the book he's been writing for....6 yrs? Exceptionally caring/emotional guy. One very solid man. Very grounded.
Jeremy just had his 26th bday. I called him two days before his bday and said "Jeremy? Guess what's gonna happen in two days?" "I don't know mom, why don't you just tell me?" "Well do you know how much you're getting?" "No" I told him and said "And you ain't gettin it till I get that cd you've had since December.
I don't see my babies very often and when I need Jeremy over here he does come within days like to clean my gutters or something, but I don't like to bother him so it's not often. There are those things that just stand out. Like when I went to Jacksonville to see Jason and we were going to St Augustine and he was playing a John Mayer tape that I loved. When I went to Hawaii last yr Jason was home and and stayed while I was gone. For some reason the tape was in my car even though Jason had his own car here. Of course I want to think he left it as a gift that you don't say is a gift so I treasure it. They were both here and I was telling Jason it was in my car and he couldn't have it back cos I loved it so much. Jeremy "took" it saying he was gonna burn it and bring it back. That was in December and I still didn't have it because why? Jeremy lost it. Of course. I've been asking and asking and finally made the deal he couldn't refuse. He called and said he was at Wallyworld and found it and it had a bonus cd's of new songs. So he came over (after he said he'd bring me some cajun chicken he made he loved and was gonna bring me a piece to taste that he forgot cos a friend showed up and they couldn't stop eating it cos it was so good. )I had some earphones I couldn't get to work after it was working while I was in Mrytle Beach that he fixed. It's the funniest thing cos when he does come I hand him simple stuff he just "touches" and they start to work things. (forgot one of em dang it!")
He's got these two new dogs that he's trying to train and I swear he's is the best daddy ever. He tells me he may give me a grandbaby when he's 40, but that's an improvement cos it used to be "It's not gonna happen mom". I think he gets that he's gonna be a really good dad.
He and his girlfriend took me and her mom to the track for Mom's day and then took me over to his house cos I"ve been asking to see the new sectional that he got from my store. OMG!!! Each and every room was as bad if not worse than the other ones and that's a total concern. I swear, when he picked me up we had to move debri from his front seat! Lot's and lots of empty oil containers. He explained that he'd have picked me up in her car but it's as bad as his! I am a complete clean freak! Well it's not always clean, but it certainly doesn't look dirty and every single place has a place and is in it! It really is hilarious that he's so completely different. I think Jason is way more like me. I totally approve of his girlfriend and it's surprising to me how very much that means to a mom.
