It was a pretty good weekend. All in all. I got what I needed to accomplished or close to it. I spent some time with the kids, and it did not just fly by like it normally does. The weather was also fantastic, maybe a little hot, but after all that snow we received this winter, who can complain its hot already?!
Tonight I was told I don't do anything, by my teenager. She thinks I should let her go to the other school in town, which is not our district, so I would first off, have to LIE about where we live for her to even be able to go. Second this would require me taking and pickingher up each day. I have been there, the traffic is nuts, and there for both the task of dropping off, and picking up would add another 30 min each. So an hour a day, or five a week. This should not be a problem for me, because after all, its not like I DO ANYTHING anyway. Later a facebook status said "Why do we even HAVE parents" I went in there and told her to move out. "Where would I live?" She asked me, snottily... and THAT is why you have parents! HA!
I was a genius and invented the "laundry game" tonight. We got all the laundry that was washed sorted out by who's was who's and I folded it while the kids told me who's was who's and got a "point" for each first correct answer. It worked pretty well until Hannah wanted to keep track of points on paper, and then we started fighting over who's point it should be, or who didn't give who points. I even gave out "Bonus Questions" which meant you got to get a NEW basket to go through! LOL.
We read a book together, the little ones. Promise said story time is "lame". Then the kids went to bed, without issues. All of them. Destiny was able to talk to me again, without her eyeballs rolling around inside of her head and her and Promise were even getting along. Which happens more often now that Promise is a bit older I guess, and is really neat.
So its back to the grind this week, but I am ready for it. Ready to make some money, have some time away and I hope I can even make it to the dang gym a few times this week, and with the kids too. Destiny has been bothering me to take her for a month and I am lazy, and fat and do not want to do it.
