Grr ... go home!

YSS got himself into a new car last week. The silly boy didn't realise the cost was $570 a month for 72 months. The car broke down today and with DHs help he got himself out of the deal by the skin of his teeth. Yeah, great career maker delivers sandwiches.

SO I go and sit outside with them on our deck and have a beer. And the kid talks across his father and then starts dropping the f bomb. Now I am far from perfect but I warned him once to stop and the 2nd time I said I was not sitting out here listening to that language.. and came inside.

Seriously... my sister is annoying.

My uncle passed away in NZ last night. He was diagnosed with terminal cancer only 24 hrs ago and zip, gone. My sister posts the most meaningless drivel.. "Life is full of true uncertainties..." What does THAT mean? If you value family so much why are you hold me accountable for not flying the Vegas last year for your belated birthday when we were up to our neck in hail/storm damage? You had all your friends there, people I have never met. And a weekend in Vegas is a lot more expensive than a Tues/Thurs in Vegas.

Crappy weekend

You know when you have one of those weekends planned out and have very little to do but enjoy the peace and quiet? Well it does not go to plan when your body decides to rebel against you and you end up in hospital having your gall bladder removed. I should be back at work in a week and I am grateful I HAVE a job and I HAVE PTO time. But geez Louise! This sucks!

Grinch will reign!

OSS borrowed our hair clippers 6 weeks ago and has not returned them despite numerous promises. I cut DHs hair because a)There is little left! b) I am not paying $15 for a haircut when he only needs a #2 where he actually HAS hair.

Has it been returned? No. Promises for yesterday AND today... So, I told DH that either it is returned today/tonight or the set of clippers we bought OSS for Christmas will become ours and he can keep the set we lent to him 6 fricking weeks ago. Merry Christmas!

Well, they did it

Ssons (OSS22/YSS20) were invited to our place for TG lunch/dinner 2 weeks ago. OSS accepted the invite. YSS said he had to wait on what his mother wanted to do. We live 10 mins from BM.

OSS just called to bail on lunch tomorrow as his maternal GM would be at BMs for lunch. YSS said he wouldn't be by until later because GM would be in town. BM informed them today.

Something to think about

I was at a stupid compulsory meeting today for my job. But a catch phrase caught my attention and you may want to use this in future... "What you permit, you promote."

So when those SKids are being the nastiest little pieces of poop on the planet, consider their parent who is allowing this to happen. By permitting the crap to continue to spew forth they are promoting the continuation of the abuse.

Just saying ....

Pinterest to your rescue!

The next time you ban the skids (or your own for that matter) from TV or other electrical devices and the idea of hauling the TV away... I found this on Pinterest...

Stick a lock through the holes on the end of electrical plugs when your kids get grounded. It saves you from having to physically remove items from their rooms. Freaking brilliant.

How Stupid it this?

Grand-daughter (MissM) has her mommy-week this week with my DD. DD and exb/friend share 50/50 - week about. Next week is Daddy's week.
MissM gets a call from her Daddy. It turns out Daddy got married yesterday. To a woman who has a little boy. And who MissM has never met in her entire life.

I am an awesome wife

DH received an invitation to his nephews graduation party. Well it is his ex's brothers son. But as BM claims his side of the family still as relatives it works both ways.

DH noticed the invite was for him only. He said he wouldn't go. I said he SHOULD go and I didn't know the people anyway and he has history with them. Also his sons will be there as well as his ex. Which is great for me. I get a few hours to myself, DH gets to visit with people I don't even know and it will reinforce why he divorced BM and why his is so lucky I said yes!
