And now for the good stuff

As of tonight, quiet_elegance  has been told by the head of the apprenticeship program, that he is being advanced- just a bit early according to their odd and antiquated rules- to journeyman. Yes. Oh yes. About fucking time.
This means a raise, new levels in pension benefits, the option to be a steward, and a super-fast track to the teaching circuit.

I was really hoping the Good Feeling that pinged when hearing a new job started last week, that 2 people from the oversight board were going to bat for him, that this was the week we could call the tipping point.

Uh, yeah.

thank you all the dieties!
Thanks to M's patrons, thanks to you.

and yai!

Part 2, chapter 2 of the Swan plumbing problem:
The landlord-chosen plumber is in tomorrow. He expects to start and finish the fix that is required to make us a fully functioning house again. Also, he'll be billing the landlord directly. Further huzzahs :)
