Morning

We had Chrismas 2.0 at my folks this weekend.  On the way there our realtor called and asked if there was any possible way we could show our house at 11.  Um, no.  The house was a shithole.  I still had a faint milk odor where it had soaked into the carpet so I coated that in a box of Arm and Hammer and shoved a chair over it so the cat wouldn't eat it.  The house was torn apart from Christmas and packing and DH hadn't put away his clothes for weeks or cleaned the litter box. 

DH starts freaking and we try to make a plan to get the house clean for a 1 pm showing.  Turns out the people could reschedule for today so we kept  going and got our food and drink on!

It was  a good time.  All of the kids were on their bestest behavior.  My 8 yo nephew was the absolute sweetest with 6let.  He even helped 6let go potty and went to bed a little early because 6let was a little scared. 

There was ZERO drama with my brother's wife.  I think the relationship with her and everyone has been repaired.  Maybe not perfect, but 90+% there.  The only drama was my sister about ready to kill me over a game of Mille Borne, but that isn't quite abnormal.  I spilled a beer on her so we're even.

  • Oh, and friend's daughter seems to have a bunch of cash but no job.  Friend asked where it was from and daughter said sugardaddy.com.  Friend thinks she might be serious.

    and in baby news M2 popped out 2 teeth and there are 2 more I can see just below the gums.  It's about darn time.  She's also standing and starting to let go.  Lord help us all.
  • Good morning.  Sounds like it was a great weekend!! YAY for baby teeth and sweet nephews.  :)

     What the what at friend's daughter?  That just sounds scary and dangerous.

    Our weekend was uneventful. 

    Fri-The kiddo spent the night at a friend's house.  DH and I went to Sams for some odds and ends.  I think we have almost a month's worth of meat now. 

    Sat-We went to Trader Joe's and BRU and the regular grocery store.  MIL and FIL came over for dinner and to watch the Saturday playoff games.

    Sun-I worked 4 hours of OT yesterday and then DH and I both worked out.  More football was watched and then it was the regular Sunday night TV (60 min and The Good Wife...We're 30 something going on 80 something, LOL)
  • Sounds like good weekends, yay :)

    Thurs I came home w/ major-eye-issues which fortold misery and migraines over the weekend--rather accurately, although the fact taht Buffydidn't sleep all weekend may be the root cause for that.

    Friday, I did relatively little, Buffy and I worke don some housework.
    Saturday, we visited gramps (who is doing very poorly) and did clearance Christmas shopping at target for next year.
    Yesterday I fought a migraine and we took down Christmas.
  • 6, your weekend sounds awesome.

    I did very little, mainly put away the christmas tree on Saturday.  Now I have grand ideas on how to spice up a wood-paneled (!) area to cover it in transition, before we knock that wall down eventually.  Of course H was all "I don't get it".  *eyeroll*

    Sunday was more of the same, lounging, watching tv, folding laundry.  Blargh.

  • O- We painted the paneling in our basement and it turned out pretty nice.  I can post a pic if you're interested, but we need to run so someone can come buy our house!
  • No worries.

    There is some shelving stuff there, and I hope to use that as a border, stuff the open area and cover in fabric.  Yes, it sounds weird, but in my mind...gorgeous.  ha.

  • I watched TV all weekend and helped my friend with her apartment some more. I am so sick of helping her move, when my own place isn't 100% settled. I asked H to hang some more stuff in our place and did some organizing of our paperwork, so I feel better about our place.
