Things are changing

So if it's one thing I have learned about my life and the things in it is that you never know what tomorrow holds.

Before I get into all of this, I need to fill you in on the background of the story.

I have a younger brother. Nick is 21 and has no idea what he wants to do with life. He went to jr. college for two years and really enjoyed it but his last semester their he decided school was not the thing for him. My lovely mother convinced him to apply to a university and he got accepted, went to orientation and then decided that he didn't want to do that either. So he has been living at home and working for the school district in our home town. (Mommy got him the job, as usual). So now that summer is coming to a close and his job position is no longer needed, he needed to figure out what to do with his life.

The original plan was for him to move to Illinois where all of our extended family is from and get a job there. Well that plan went to crap because there are no jobs in the small little town in Illinois that he would have been living in.

So plan B was for Nick to come and live with me and Mark. Well this plan was quite shaky and has been for a while. Well that was until yesterday........

Tomorrow, my Dad and Brother will be leaving Texas to drive to PA so Nick can come live with me and Mark. They will get here on Friday evening some time, or maybe even Saturday morning depending on how the driving goes. With me and Mark both working in the oilfield industry here, which is booming, we should be able to find him a job pretty easily.

We have decided that Nick can live with us until Oct. 1st rent free and then he has to start paying rent.

Now, my brother and I don't always see eye to eye so this could be a very interesting living situation, especially with DH and I TTC. It's probably not the best time for us to have a "roommate" but I really think moving is the best thing for my brother, so I am willing to take one for the team.
