Superbowl alone?

I got lucky and SS7 went to his grandparent's house to ruin their weekend instead of mine. Otherwise, I'd be hiding in my bedroom watching the game with BD1. DH always cooks a ton of delicious food and I love being out here with DH and BD1 and not having to worry about SS7 whining, complaining, refusing to eat, demanding attention, stealing BD1's toys, etc. It's so peaceful.

I'm wondering, how many steps are letting their DH's watch the game with their evil spawn while they're hiding in a room alone? Or not watching the game at all?

I might as well be. DH is exhausted, went to work at 4am Saturday and today. I made a bunch of food for the game, because DH usually likes having a bunch of snacks/appetizers for football games, but he's not feeling well enough to eat much. SD5 and SS7 won't eat any of it, even the stuff they like. I'm in a "sitting alone in a crowded room" situation. Wouldn't be so bad if it were any other weekend, but DH and I usually have a blast watching the superbowl together. This year, not so much

I don't mind but ss 9 is snuggled in bed with DH watching the game! I am lucky I have a good relationship with the skids, it is their mom that is crazy and they know it. Is it to much to wish that she chokes on a chicken wing tonight? hahahaha

DH decided to watch the game with a friend of his in the kids living room. SD15 knows nothing about football but she's right in the middle of them. DH is using her as his errand girl. I'm enjoying peace and quiet in my room. She's trying to be a little ass kisser but I can hear that DH is getting annoyed with her. He just said his friend is leaving and he's coming to watch it in bed with me. I think she's pouting about it right now. She's so annoying. He is too annoying to watch football with. He gets so mad and yells at the tv. It doesn't help we live in Massachusetts so he's really into it!! Ugg here he comes to bother me now.

I don't watch sports, I'm actually snuggled in bed by myself watching The Little Mermaid right now and loving every second of it!

People may think I'm weird but yeah I love watching Disney movies by myself sometimes.

My DH worked tonight so I sat home alone with the kids, and we don't have cable so I couldn't watch the game. *shrug* It could always be worse I guess.

We are not into sports so we didn;t watch the game. Dh played xbox while I was on the laptop. Boys went home early (which wasn't as early as they thought their oen doing lol).
