Thanks for the birthday wishes again. Dinner was very good. I had 3 bowls of food. It was amazing.

An interesting conversation took place between me and W tonight. This is the first time she has asked my advice on something in forever. I will let yall determine whether she still is interested in my opinion.
W says:
so i have a dilemma
Kevin says:
How did counseling go for D11 tonight?
what is your dilemma?
W says:
she said great
Sister, in her infinite wisdom, has made reservations for mom's birthday
at five sixty on top of reunion arena tower
on thurs night for all of us
i've looked at the menu...not a darn thing on there i want to eat but sushi and certainly not anything the girls want to eat
and it's a wolfgang puck restaurant. so its expensive.
sister has asked if i could get you to watch the girls that night while i go to dinner with them b/c i said i was not paying for the girls to eat there.
i'm of the opinion that its rude to leave the girls out of mom's birthday.
and its rude to expect me to pay for that kind of meal when i may be out of a job in a month or so
so i'm thinking about skipping and just paying for mom's meal and making that my birthday present to her. thoughts?
Kevin says:
I think that is the smart move
W says:
maybe take her out to eat on sunday with the girls for lunch
Kevin says:
no sense in wasting money when you are about to be out of a job
and SIL isn't paying anything anyways
W says:
well and i just think it would be sh*tty to leave the girls out of it too
Kevin says:
I agree
W says:
ok. good. thanks
Kevin says:
but financially speaking which is what you really have to look at
I'd say you are making the right decision and your mom and stepdad would agree
W says:
ok
thanks
Kevin says:
no prob. You know I will always give you the best advice I can
W says:
yes. thnks

Any thoughts?

Kevin
