1 year home

Well I haven't updated you guys in awhile.  Mike was released one year ago last Wednesday.  It has been a long, but wonderful year.  He was released from HWH October 16, yes he did his full HWH house time with only 2 home visits allowed.  There was a paperwork issue and the two hour drive back and forth, so he stayed his entire 60 days there.  He was put on home confinement for 1 year.  October 16th he will start his supervised release for another 2 years.  If any one has questions concerning HC under the supervision of the PO's not HWH please email me as it is entirely different than what the HWH's do when they release you home early or for weekend visits.  Mike is working 40 hours a week.  He can't leave until 7 a.m. and has to be in the house by 5:30.  He is on "lockdown" all Federal Holidays and Friday 5:30 p.m. until Monday at 7:00 a.m. with a break for church 10 a.m. until 12 p.m. on Sunday.  He works for a company that only shuts down on Thanksgiving and Christmas, but he is not allowed to work on any federal holiday as he is on lockdown.  He also can not work overtime or weekends.  Also, just so those of you who may have to deal with this sentence, home confinement means just that, within the confines of your home.  No yard, porch, or deck.  On a positive note we have made it this far and have less than 60 days left of the this craziness.

I have been offered a position working with the preschool students at the Montessori School here.  I have been preparing my room for the upcoming school year and am very excited about working with the students. 

I hope all is well with everyone, it has been very quite lately.  I am hoping that no news is good news.
