Sooooo, we are "STATUS QUO, with a few improvements... " and I know that is good for now.
Saturday - H got home in the middle of the night (Fri/Sat) from working out of town for the week. We went to S12's HOME soccer game. They won, and he scored a goal! We then, went home and relaxed for awhile, and took S9 to his AWAY soccer game later that evening. They lost, and played in the most horrible conditions. But, we went to dinner w/some of the teammates and parents afterward, which was very fun! H really likes one of the other Dad's, and enjoys his humor. Glad they asked us to come.
Sunday - S9 had a HOME game, and they WON! S9 was awesome in goal! And, S12 had an AWAY game, and they lost, by one goal. We all went to S12's game, including one of D18's best friend. We were all celebrating D18's birthday at Texas de Brazil. If anyone has ever been to one of those places, you'll understand that I'm STILL full from brunch yesterday! We gave D18 her b-day presents (combo grad/b-day present... laptop! She was thrilled!), and had ice cream with my parents. Fun day overall, and all passed out fairly early.
Today H was home until about 30 min ago... Had some fun kind of banter, and laughed about S12 renting a tux for his 6th grade graduation. H helped me set-up a pipettor that I need to work with, prior to a trip to IA and WI this week. And, I got my hair done! It's cute!
One little change this weekend... I've tried this before w/good result... If H is tired (is a lot because of his work schedule), he tends to make some sarcastic comments sometimes (to me), which can get annoying. I've started (one in awhile) zinging him back, instead of going along, or ignoring them. I, actually, think he might like it! He doesn't make any more comments, and kind of finds it humorous that he's been zinged. I think I'll keep that up, but not too often, as he isn't in that mood very often.
Soccer training was canceled for the boys tonight. Looking forward to staying home, cooking, and going for a walk.
Hope everyone's doing well!

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
