It was a birthday weekend - d18's yesterday, and my birthday today. And W's best gf had her 50th birthday yesterday.

I like that W and I are good about sharing our children on special days. Never an argument. W had d18 in the 1st half of the day, and I had her after 3 pm. We watched a movie together then I took the 3 in-town kids out to dinner.

It was a nice time. One funny thing came up. D19 is now in Boston, and d18 is going to another school in Boston. D20 is now talking about moving out there too. And the kids said that W would move out there too if she does. I think this is all pie in the sky right now, but it is fun to think about.

W called me up today to wish me a happy b-day, which she did not do last year. We had a good light convo, when she brought up om. He finally got out of intensive care yesterday. W shared that om was literally going crazy in icu with many phone calls being made to her. But he's out now. I just listened and let W talk, then ended our convo at the 1st opportunity.

Today was a good relaxing day. I taught s13 how to make me a pancake breakfast. We watched the Twins who started a rookie phenom, and we are watching the NBA finals tonight.
