Work?..school?

Michael's dad has sold the apartment complex he has been working on for the past year and half. Which is good news but also a little scary for a minute. Good because for Michael's graduation he offered to pay off Michael's student loans as soon as he sold the complex...WOOHOO!!!!!! Which is fabulous because Michael has decided he wants to go back to school:)...I'll get to that in a bit. The down side, for the time being, is that Michael is a little stuck for a few weeks.
His dad is going to pay him what is left of what he owes him as soon as the complex closes, but until then we were already stretched thin. Also the other down side is that he can't start working up there again until it closes. I guess the new owner wants who's there now to finish off the project. His dad is aware we are stretched, I'm assuming, because he told Michael he wants him to tile two of the bathrooms in his house. So I guess he'll do that this week and we'll see how the next few weeks go. I'm not sure what he is going to do, I know his dad wants him to work with him also so we'll see.
Back to the school thing...the other day we were talking and he said he wants to go back to school. I figured this would happen about this time. I actually bet my mom a year ago, when he graduated, that he would be back in school in 2 years. Well I think I might win that bet. He said he wants to go back and get a law degree in something to do with business law. I'm all for it as long as I don't have to work this time around. He is so smart sometimes it's a little freaky. He breezed right through his undergraduate without hardly opening a book so it will be interesting to see what he can do if he studies.

WOW...that's big news about school. Good for him! I hope that everything works out. It is never fun to be stretched thin...

School again. You know some days I wish I could go back to school. It would be nice to have something besides kids to deal with.
