Mama's gonna have a full house

[bebeetmoi]

And by house, I mean full apartment.
One of my step-brother's is a really nice kid, but aimless. Didn't last past his first semester of college and doesn't really have a great job. He still is living at home with his mother and my family is always trying to get him motivated to go back to school and/or figure out what he wants to do with the rest of his life. Well, for years DH has been (carefully) telling my step-father that maybe the family business isn't his cup of tea. DH is convinced that he would do well learning a trade of some sort. So after being at my parents house last week, DH told my step-brother he should come down to NYC and stay with us for a bit and go to work for him on one of his jobs, just to get a feel for it and see if there is anything that strikes his fancy. Never in a million years did I think he'd take him up on it, but he's getting on a bus and will be here tonight and staying with us for a week at least. I'm really excited that he took DH up on the offer and hope that he will get something out of it!
Time to make up the pull-out couch and hit the grocery store in a big way!
