Bought myself some new 500 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets today ... Ahhh.
Bye bye nasty thin gross thrift store sheets that were king size and not queen so always coming untucked and shtuff ... Buh bye!
Lots of kids hanging out, spending the night, hanging out talking to me in the calm serene LR...

I am only contacting her for kid or house business, and then it was just one issue, though until this weekend she called me everyday, starting with business then asking me how I was doing, etc. She calls the kids every couple of days.
So far her spending is entirely reasonable (knocks on the fake wood of my desk).
Have had some interesting emotional fluxes, but not bad ones at all. But then again, I AM busy as all get out.
Doing well, doing the needful and going easy on myself when I need to, like Sunday I was just exhausted. So I just chilled and puttered.
