And then there was good news....my father who was laid off in the middle of last year now has a job.

Personally I think the impetus for him to find work came when he finally decided to move Psycho Grandmother (yes, it's his mother) down to Florida. After all the time he spent in the house with her it would be good for him to be away from her. On the bad side, it most likely means that my mom will be spending more time with Psycho Grandmother. On the bad side for PG, she will be alone during the day and not really knowing a lot of people in the area. Part of me thinks that won't be good for her....
