Yay! Daylight is coming!
What's the best gift I could have personally been given today?
A PONY!
No, but close, I like your thinking!
A 6 MONTH EXTENSION OF MY WORK SCHEDULE!
Given all the drama surrounding it recently, I thought for sure it would be a no-go. I sucked it up and presented my case anyway, because I had nothing to lose. And they said yes! And as a bonus, found a way to justify it with the union as well!
So, that means six more months of sleeping at home most of the week. Six more months of seeing G almost any time I like. Six more months of Bridget living here. Six more months of saving a lot of money (board here is about a quarter the cost as compared to the lower coast). Six more months of being super happy!

| Just 4 more months until this! |
As a side note, (although I know I should not care) after the initial drama, I think the whole thing with nasty coworker only served to make HR/the union/management more sympathetic to me and determined to make things right. Although I was furious at the time, I'm glad now I didn't get involved in it - the people I needed to have my back apparently do.
Six months brings us to June, when I'd like to be back at EC's barn for extra coaching and competition access a few months anyway - we've got big goals this year!
YAY! What great news! Congratulations.
