Hi Ladies,
Yes girls, DH did get up yesterday and we all went the ballgame together.
It was a shutout, 16-0. We played the same team Friday night and it was much closer, 10-7. We only have 1 loss so far and another 4 weeks to play.
Yesterday ended up being a rest day but I did get some housework and laundry done. It was a productive day.
Girls, I need some advice regarding DS1 and his daughters. I suggested we talk to an attorney about a legal custody arrangement allowing him scheduled visitation, summer's, holidays etc. He's afraid doing this will cause his ex to be a real bit**. It was fine when he was living near the girls and could see them every other weekend but he doesn't have that option living here. He pays child support. I have a good relationship with his ex and don't want to ruin it, but my son has a right to see his daughters and the way it is now, she holds all the cards and he just does what she says. I've never been in this situation and I really just want the best for my son. I'm thinking maybe Jacque, Jen or Lori can offer up some suggestions.
Wendy-I hope your new w/o schedule works better for you. I'm counting down the days until STS is over...2 weeks to go. I do enjoy, as with any long rotation the end also sounds so good. It sounds like you had a nice time with your friend and her new beau. I'm sure she is happy that you approve. You never know how real estate will go...hopefully you will find the house of your dreams and all will fall into place this summer. Speaking of lawns, we may need to mow ours today...can you believe it. DS fertilized it before our last snow storm and it is the greenest lawn on the block.
Lori-You go girl!!! Nice job going out for your longest run to date even with the wind and the rain. You are amazing!!! I can't complain about my DH, he's always been the early riser and took care of the kiddo's...no issues at all. Obviously during the work week was different as he had to be to work earlier than I did. Hope DS had fun in the hot tub, cute image with him and his arm floats wanting in the hot tub!
Jacque-I'm not spending any money either. We will be paying for the registration and insurance on DS2's vehicle soon. I'm pretty sure DH will be discussing finances with DS2 and how he needs to take some financial responsibility for himself. I'm so over paying for my kids and feel as though I'm becoming very selfish. Hopefully your DH can find some PT work soon. We didn't get to watch the game the other night, baseball rules our life right now!
Laura-how was the w/o fundraiser??? I'm sure it was a success!
Jen-hope you pop in soon and let us know how you are doing.
PunkyJen-hope all is well with you and your family. I found the book I was telling you about and will email some recipes soon...I promise.
Have a great day ladies!!
