I'm really mad at myself today.

Today S8 was making his first reconciliation. It is JA's weekend and I was able to talk him into bringing S8 to go.

S8 wanted both of his parents there. After reminding JA about it yesterday and during the week, guess who forgets to show up?

ME!!!

JA called me afterwards and asked where I was. It dawned on me then that I forgot to meet them there.

I was too busy straightening up the damn house because my realtor called last night saying people wanted to come see it today.

I was/am so mad at myself. JA said it was ok, that S8 was a little disappointed I didn't come but he's ok now.

I asked to speak to S8 and I did. I apologized to him dearly. He just said "Ok". I asked him if he was mad at me and he said "no".

I feel like such a shmuck and a bad parent.

I have so much on my mind lately that I completely forgot about S8's First Reconciliation.

Don't I deserve idiot parent of the year award.

It's going to take awhile to forgive myself over this.
