It took the State of WV all this time to get the info to them, but it is now official. WaHooo!!!!

As it is I only get them 6 nights a month so it won't be a huge change. And while I won't count on it, there is a chance thatin little over a year, my oldest will come and live with me down there. She is not very happy being so far in the woods of WV that they don't even get cell service. At least it will give her an option. I won't push for it because where she is at, there is plenty of love and stability. But it is time I start focusing on me a little bit. And for me, this is a good thing.
