This morning we headed to Grand Prairie for Archie and Matt to check out a job. I stayed in the car while they checked out the building. Archie bailed out a little early because the noise inside was giving him a headache. Afterwards we went for another job to see if Archie could help out, he was able to do a few things. We stopped for lunch and then headed to the house. I dropped Archie off at the house and told him that if he needed to go anywhere to give me a call. I headed out to try to take care of some Christmas shopping and to get our Magi/Angel tree gift for church. I went to five stores and got a bunch of presents taken care of. I got home a couple of hours later to an empty house, missing husband and truck. I called him and he told me he went to meet Matt in McKinney for a job. He drove himself on side roads to McKinney. I wrapped all the presents I had. When Archie got home he told me that the job took longer than he thought, he was hoping to get home before I got home. I felt like a mom with a teenager who was not truthful with me. Not that I didn't trust Archie, rather I would have preferred to have ridden in the truck with him. He got to McKinney and home safely and we agreed that I would ride in the truck with him for at least the next week. I also asked him to not mess with his phone while he is driving to avoid distractions at least for a week or two. So if you call Archie and he does not answer he might be driving.
Overall, this first week of work for Archie was good. He worked a few hours everyday except the day he had his neuro psych evaluation. Next week he will work longer days and I go back to work as well.
