Got to sleep in late, which felt good. Been working the last 4 Saturdays in a row and then going to church on Sundays, its been a while since I've been able to.
kat, I keep trying to put things into perspective, too.
And it's going to be another great day!

Good Bye Girl. No longer SAYING she's moving out. GBG moved out 8-1-08
"I have now decided to enjoy life instead of figure it out."
Keep it going, h4h! Sounds like you are enjoying the kids and enjoying life in general. Focus on happiness. Just a lil reminder: NO answering B calls or other single, girl "friends"...stay away.........Focus on YOU and being happy on your OWN. You do NOT need to call B back...calling you at 9:30 at night...pffftttt.......vulture I tell ya.

(((H4H))) Just wanted to say I'm proud of you for giving her the info and for what a great job you have been doing. Keep up the good work, you'll all benefit from it in the end.

Nope..no texting.....all about you and the kids now........She needs to approach you now with stuff. You are polite and respectful to her, but you focus on you and the kids. She moved out, you gave her the retro info....now, she needs to come to you. DOn't help her or "be her friend" and make it all funny and "ok" to take your syrup, etc. cause she MOVED OUT!
If anything, you should say: We were making pancakes this morning and there was no syrup. Could you please let me know if you take something from our house so I can get some at the grocery and replace it? Thanks.
Later after Six Flags and taking S14 back to GBG's apartment, I told him the story because at the time this morning, he was still asleep. How we laughed about it.
He chuckled. And then D11 chimes in like she has before,
"Yeah. Mom needs to buy her own stuff. Her OWN stuff!"
She made me laugh. I know she is saying it playing around, but ya'll remember her telling me that before at the Wallymart. I know that they are talking to GBG when she calls them. They are not calling her like they do me. Not sure if GBG realizes this. They tell her they miss her because SHE tells them that on the phone. Us alone, no mention of her for the most part. Just the other night with D6 coming in my room. Wednesday I think.
My original thought on the text would be that I was going to sound condescending. Like, you made us laugh because that is so sad.
But nah, no texting. No talking. No emails. Thought about it, but nope. We WILL need to talk about some things with school coming up. Like after school care for D6. Right now, I have no idea what we'll decide. Probably the YMCA after school deal at the school. About $150.00 a month. Will have to split that. The phone she gave D11 is getting calls from a finance company that she must have gotten another loan with. Sounds like they need a payment. And her check is biweekly.
Don't know about ya'll, but it is damn hard to schedule payments with a biweekly paycheck. Always get a check on different days of the month.
Oh well. Hope OM is prepared to be shelling out some major bucks to keep her going.
Dumb ass.
