t's good to have him home...let's just leave it at that.

Hee. And awwwwwww. And Yay. So cute!

The most frustrating part, vs, is that with the packing we still have to keep the house "open house ready". Gah...pain in the tush. We told that realtor that from after this open house through Friday, the house will be a mess. If someone wants to come look, fine, but we won't be making it "open house ready" for them. We will have boxes and packing stuff all over the house.

The movers come Friday. Both STBX and mom aren't planning on leaving until mid-day Friday. How do I tell them both they need to leave at the ass crack of dawn cause they are driving me CRAZY???

Yeah, that is SO hard. It's probably my least-favorite part of moving--having to keep the house/apartment clean for showings. It's ridiculous.

Want me to call STBX and your mom and tell them to get lost? I'd be happy to...

Oh, hon, if I thought that would work and not backfire on me. I'm so tired of hiding in my room. Yes, I was gone yesterday and yes, I'll be gone Monday and Tuesday. But gosh, I've worked hard on this whole transition too. Sorry I like to have a life and sorry my daughter is headed off to college.

And sorry for ranting here. Just, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

It's fun to see you so happy, vw.

Of course, I'm about to go to a brunch where she'll be, so we'll see if she acts as though this conversation never took place. Which is ENTIRELY LIKELY. I am prepared for that...

Oh meara, you're too much of a catch to put up with this shit.

Though it occurred to me this morning that one pertinent question to ask before anything went down

Anything, or anyone?

I am petty, so I hope you get laid, blow her wee and wicked little mind, and then find the girl of your dreams, leaving the GILF PINING.

Ahem.

Poor Suzi. I hope it's all over soon, and the house sells, and you get some peace, quiet, and space.

Working working working...but tomorrow is D's birthday and we have plans to go to the archery range in El Dorado Park.

Sits with Plei.

Sitting quietly working in my chilly house. My son went off to the races with his grandpa. My sister came over and helped me rearrange furniture yesterday. Bobby and I set up a jigsaw puzzle table on the front porch and proceeded to get one started. They don't sell wine in grocery stores in NY (the horror) so I sampled some Barcardi lime flavored stuff while working on the puzzle. Not bad, but not wine.

Went for a nice boat ride with other family members yesterday which was very pleasant. Didn't do any office work for the entire day, just house type work. Can't remember when I didn't do computer work. It will be on the list today. We also made my mother's day by walking to church and attending mass with her this morning.

Next is planting the flowers in window boxes and then getting more real work down. I may have to watch Cashmere's videos again.
