Well as some of you that saw my post in the visiting forum I was having a dilemma.
I had cleared with work to go up to see my husband for the 3 days thanksgiving weekend BUT I then found out that his brother and girlfriend where also going up there.
Don’t get me wrong I love his brother and wouldn’t normally mind sharing my visit with them two, but as all of you know if you visit Pelican Bay SHU it’s a 2 hour visit non contact and with 3 of you all trying to talk its not much fun.
And I have not even been married 2 months and desperate to spend some time alone with my new husband and I didn’t want to invade his brother visiting time either
So……
Today I sat in a meeting room at work with the HR Director (who knows the situation) and pleaded, yes I looked like a desperate women to see if I could get a few days unpaid leave and guess what
YEP I can take the extra time off and stay in the States to see him for the weekend after as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!
Sorry walking on air at the moment and wanted to share:D
