Update to custody batte and other stuff.....
My ex was served two weeks ago and he hasn't done anything so far. Hasn't said a peep to me. Hasn't filed a response. He has until the 16th to respond, so we will wait.. Boys have been with him this past week, I get them back tomorrow and we will see if they have been brainwashed by the ex and his buck toothed bride to be...
In other news, we have been kid free pretty much all of June and it has been A W E S O M E!!!! They are all coming back within the next 2 weeks. Mine will be home for a week starting tomorrow. Don't get me wrong, I miss my kids, but this sure has been a nice stretch. We go out and eat when we want, we drink when we want, we sleep in, nookie with the bedroom door open :jawdrop: Now DH is really starting to miss his precious babies. Like I said, I miss my kids, but I talk to them every day, and I don't feel the need to go on and on and on about how much I miss them. DH feels the need to go on and on.
The truth is, I really don't miss the skids that much. They are with us 24/7 and I have enjoyed the break. I like not having to worry about what SD4 is going to destroy while I'm at work. I like not having to tell SS8 to go change his clothes for church 4 times because basketball shorts and socks with sandals aren't working. I enjoy not having to tell SS14 to pick up his crusty undies, or to shut the damn shower curtain. I have enjoyed it and DH is ruining the last part of it by whining about not being able to watch fire works with his precious darlings. So I just nod when he starts talking about them and look off into space.
Anyone else feel that way? Miss your kids but not the skids and your DH won't shut up about how much he misses the little devils..er I mean darlings.

I don't have kids, but my BF
I don't have kids, but my BF is like that with his son. He went away for 3 days at the beginning of June and called me constantly to check in on SS2, to talk to SS2, or just text me to tell SS2 Daddy missed him, etc. I'm like jesus, settle down. I didn't have the heart to tell him that SS2 hadn't even asked about him once, lol... but it was a bit ridiculous. Then when he got back from the trip I asked him if he had fun and whatnot and he's like "No, I just missed SS2 the whole time." ... niiiiice.
Oh good grief!! Our husbands
Oh good grief!! Our husbands should be able to enjoy a break with us!! Don't they realize they get laid more when it's a kid free zone?!?!
GROSSSS!!!! I would start
GROSSSS!!!! I would start booby trapping the area in front of my door!!! That is so gross!
ME ME ME My bios are gone for
ME ME ME
My bios are gone for 4 weeks to visit grandparents. The skids left yesterday to go visit theirs for 3 weeks. I was almost sick when my bios were leaving - it weighs on my chest they are gone - but of course I do enjoy the freedoms of no kids here.
The skids, they are here normally 50% of the time - I had to 'fake' my goodbye with caring words and reminding them to have fun and check in - honestly I don't feel anything. Out of sight, out of mind - 3 weeks will come too soon. Of course this makes me feel terribly as DH misses them - I don't. I simply don't - if they never came back I might not even recall they were ever here.
Oh - and when SD12 was dropped with BM yesterday before they caught the plane, she cried a bucket of tears. Don't get that. My bios went for 4 weeks without parents and didn't cry. SD12 who is going with her mother - cried - it only really made me mad. DH was all upset since now that he is divorced he is somehow letting his kids down by not going along or something - well played SD, well played. At least this year she didn't add the, I just wish you could come with us so we could be a family bullcrap.
LOL!! I don't have the
LOL!! I don't have the manipulative 12 year old.. yet... give me a few years and I KNOW it's going to be hell as SD4 becomes a princess.. er I mean teenager.
I feel the same as you. If they never came back, I would simply re-decorate their rooms and have unstained carpet, un marked on walls and a whole lot of peace and quiet. Ahhh one can dream.
