Roll out the baby blankets

Yup... I have just been informed by my daughter, [livejournal.com profile] cheapcarnival, of my impending Grandparentization. Yup. You read right. I'm gonna be a Grandmother. Wow... is she really old enough to be a mom?  *counts* Yup... I was the same age when I made the same announcement to my own mom now that I think about it.

ETA: oh yes, and I had my 90 day review, and my boss is very happy with my work, glad to know that I'm getting along with everyone in the office, and wanted to know if I'd like to have my wage increased. To which I answered "yes". So I'll have a dollar increase starting next week. YAY!

All kinds of cool shit are happening to me! Hahaha. Whew... I'm still kind of in that state of "...really??...Mamaw?...really?"

Congratulations are in order, twice over!

Thanks! Apparently my boss is pretty pleased with my work.

And Seth is pretty pleased that he's going to be a daddy, and the daughter is also excited, so all is well in the world.

Congrats to the job stuff and wow to the other. I hope all goes well for her.

Thanks I'm sure it will. Her boyfriend is also really excited and they're happy about it now that they're over the initial "uh oh... what if..." When they first suspected. but by the time it was official, they'd already decided on plans. So all is well.

Thanks. ^_^ One of my coworkers told me she is a grandmother 11 times over counting her one stepgrandchild (who she always counts so he doesn't feel left out of the granny business.) I said that was a lot of production, and she said that it was out of only two children. Whew. I pointed out that I only had one child to produce grandchildren, so I probably wouldn't have that many! hahaha!

Thankee! ^_^ So far Year of the Dragon has been off to a good start. My Grandbaby will be born in the Year of the Dragon too, which is also very good.
