(((((BA)))) The bike rides sound like fun! I think I am going to have to look in the garage, and see what I can fix myself up with, and see if I remember how to ride! I little bit of getting in shape wouldn't be a bad thing!
I'm glad you got to have lunch with H today, even if he was ADD and all over the place! Of course it might just be that I like Mexican food!
You are probably right, it would be a good thing to come up with something to do for you on his school nights. On the other hand, it might be a good thing on other nights (now and then), too. It seems to me he just assumes you will always be there, it might be good to change that a little!
It's sad that you and the kids have to be on eggshells when they come home! He should be happy that they are comfortable coming home! So many kids want to get out, and don't want to come back. At least you will get to enjoy them being there!
I hope the rest of your Valentine's day is good, and that you have a great evening!
