My new house is finally in order. When we separated I moved in with my dad. My mom died of breast cancer 2 1/2 years ago and the house has pretty much sat "as-is" for the entire time. I have been going through closets and cleaning things out. The clutter is almost all gone.

The house is very feminine. Flower borders, curio cabinets with endless nick knacks. Painted plates and teacup collections hanging on the walls. It is exactly how you would expect a house decorated by a grandmother in her 60's to decorate it. It is really not the right style for my dad and I, but I like being reminded of my mom and I don't have the time/money to redecorate. I did let the kids redecorate their rooms.

I invited a bunch of friends over for the UFC fight tomorrow night. GSP vs Hendricks. I am a GSP fan, but like Hendricks. It should be a good fight. Since most of my friends are married and the woman don't care about the fight, we are also going to have a game night. It is the first time I have invited people over in over a year.

My STBX leaves for Haiti again on Sunday, so I get 2 weeks with the kids without any parenting advice from my ex. Yea-haw....
