hobgoblinnGot a letter yesterday from the Social Servants. After Wee Hob's first brush with the law, which I did not chronicle at the time here, someone from the school called in an anonymous tip. Apparently, they thought he was shoplifting because I was not feeding him, because he does not always remember to bring his lunch and I will not give him lunch money like everyone else so he can spend it on pop tarts. So we had the joy of a visit from the same agency I have dealt with far too up close and personal over the past few years.
At any rate, the letter informs me that "we have determined after our investigation that your family is not in need of services at this time...." In other words, they are closing the case. Woot!
Of course, the wording made me laugh a little. Reminded me of that old sci-fi B movie from the 50's "To Serve Man."
Which was, of course, the title of the aliens' cookbook.
Anyway, I continue to be gainfully employed and trying to navigate the endless benefits paperwork. But on the upside, the benefits don't suck, so it is a rather nice change from the previous pointless exercises along these lines.
Happy day to all.

AND benefits! Yeah!
