It's been a long time

Wow so I don't know how long it has been. We will go through an update. Dan is still unemployed and the job I thought would save him, well they are no longer hiring. I don't know what to do. It is so hard trying to keep us both afloat with me going to school and having other bills besides his to deal with. I guess it wouldn't be as bad but I also don't get to see him as much as I used to. The combination is a challenge for us. I have been making progress with him though :P . I am very proud of him. He got to talk to his son for the first time in several years and it was a breakthrough emotionally for him. I hope that it can help build a new and fuller relationship with them. They only talked about Kayden's coloring book and how he can do really good with staying inside the lines. Dan told me later that it was really emotional for him, but kinda brought a little closure to him, because he used to think it was too late to be a part of his life. So a few days after that amazing event, I had an accident. I slipped on some ice while carrying a metal rod from a filing cabinet kit in my hand and cut myself right next to my eye. I had to get three stitches in my eyelid. It was painful, and I had to have my mom tell Dan because at the time I was too emotional to do it. I had them in for five days, and that was Sunday. I have been on pain killers for headaches I've gotten since the accident, and hopefully they are supposed to go away. If they don't then I have to get a CAT scan. Hopefully that won't happen. Right when that all was subsiding, THE BLIZZARD OF THE CENTURY HAPPENED. Best Buy even closed down at 230 and didn't open until 1230 the next day! There was even thunder and lightning when it was snowing. After that chaos calmed down, Dan and I had a really meaningful talk over the phone. We talked about our relationship and he appologized to me for not supporting me like he should be able to do. He told me about how him not having a job is really putting stress on us and that made both of us realize how much we mean to each other. Then he said "baby, I think I'm ready to quit drinking." HOLY SMOKES!!!!! I was so emotional that I started crying! I was so happy! He said that he will need my help and it will be hard, but he knows and I think has started to realize that it is harming him. I just pray that it will happen. I will post pictures as soon as I figure out how to use my camera! lol... Pray for us in our time of weakness. Peace out ya'll... good night!
