My daughter just brought home a case of chocolate mint Girl Guide cookies to sell. Bad news for me! They are SOO good!
Our neighbour’s daughter is in Guides. If it’s the mint cookies this year, I’d better send her dad a message soon telling him I’ll take a box or two. They are yummy.

No kidding – warm one day, freezing the next. My sister lives just over an hour west and slightly north of me, and while driving to her place on Friday night the fog was getting thicker the further west I went. At least the rain held off long enough for us to spend some time around the bonfire, and get a few marshmallows toasted. It was the first time S13 had toasted marshmallows. He liked the marshmallows but not having to sit so close to the fire to toast them - the smoke seemed to be attracted to him. Awesome thunderstorm overnight, but nice weather most of the day, then rain again Saturday evening just after we got in.
Had a fantastic weekend visiting my sis. I’d forgotten how much hard work her son is with his learning disability, especially as he thinks he knows everything and doesn’t take finding out he’s wrong very well. His biggest problem is that he takes advantage of the disability benefits and won’t even bother trying to find any sort of a job despite the fact that he is capable of doing some things. The highlight of the weekend was watching our provincial police precision motorcycle display team. What a combination – Harleys and men in uniform . Oh, and just for MH , there were a few women in uniform, including the one that is the ride master of the display team.
H turned up as promised this morning for his weekly visit. Surprise, surprise (not) only two small items were taken with him when he left. I'm really going to have to set a time limit for him to get his stuff packed and moved out.
Both 50 S14 M 16 yrs (his 3rd; my 1st)
ILYBINILWY - 24 Dec 2012 H moved out - 27 Jun 2013 Legally separated - 6 Sep 2013 Closing the door and changing the locks
Don't you just love it when the holes appear in their stories . Quick refresher - H on Wednesday says he didn't see a future with OW, just half hour after admits that he would be working at her place on the weekend.
Yesterday during his visit he was talking about having installed a punch bag in a basement so he can step up his training with kick boxing or sparring. There's that hole in his story - why install fitness equipment at her place if there isn't a future with her .
All I can say is glad I didn't believe a word he said on Wednesday . Of course, he's probably forgotten his entire conversation from Wednesday night as when I mentioned that he had said he would pack up the rest of his stuff during his weekly visit, he looked at me blankly and said "did I? Oh well, it'll have to be another time now".

I agree H always puts massive holes in his stories If I did confront him about OW or his car tyres, I wonder how he's wriggle out of that one! hehe
H47 me48 T22 M21 S20 - Got high functioning autism 3/2000 H admits to OW and moves out to live with her 11/2000 H moves back home 2/4/13 H moves out H tells me he wants D 6/13, but now he can't afford to!
anyway NQ, I should say sorry that holes have appeared in his story already Good job you weren't 100% convinced! I forgot about H taking the tent, camping chair and sleeping bag. That had a huuuuuge hole in his story! Well if you can call it a story, he was as transparent as a window, lol.

Seriously girls! I can't tell you how many convos I've had to repeat to H or he tells me the same thing he told me a few hours/days ago. He can't keep all his stories straight and who he tells what!
It is a drug addiction, temporary high, thinking it makes them feel better, but it is not permanent.
In the early days of BD I would tell him "you can't understand right now you are on a drug". I don't do that anymore of course, but he would be like "what? I'm not on a drug". I would hold his chin and look into his eyes deeply and just look. You can tell by the eyes.

I'd be afraid of getting out of line and being corrected with a riding crop!
More like a Glock 7 or 36 police special LOL - we are talking motorcycle cops.
Some of us actually look good (or that should be looked as I was 16 years younger) in uniform LOL - but from what BIL said not the women that were there Saturday
