Boy Was I Wrong!

About my last post...

Did it happen? Hell NO, it did not happen. M decided to put a new water heater in the weekend. WTF? Could he have possibly picked a worse time? I don't think so! I was dragging on Saturday. I could hardly move. Does anyone understand how hard it is to take care of and entertain a 13 month old child, when you cannot even force yourself to function?! Well, it sucks. I'll admit it.

And while he was installing that, did he bother to clean up his mess? NO! Did he finish the projects that he started in there months ago? NO! What did he decided to do the next day? Wash his truck! What is wrong with this man? He has started so many things, and has yet to complete half of them. I still have new doors on my back porch that we bought when we purchased the house over two years ago. OK... I can feel my blood beginning to boil, so I'll let this subject end here while I am still considering myself to be nice about him.

My poor sister-in-law put her children in daycare today so that she could go back to work. I called her earlier and she was still sitting outside of the daycare crying. I cannot imagine how she feels because my kids have not been put in daycare. I have been fortunate enough that my mother can watch them. So that level of comfort that I have has never been penetrated. I have admiration for all of you that do not have this opportunity. I would worry myself sick if D was in daycare and I couldn't call 10 times a day to check on him. I don't even want to think about that.

The kids are doing great. We had wonderful weather this past weekend and they played outside all day for three days. H and his friend are in the process of building an underground fort in our back yard. It's almost 5 feet deep. They have wood all around it. It's actually pretty impressive if you ask me. I don't many 9 year olds that take the patience to do something so tedious, yet worry about making it safe for themself and for their younger brother and sister. I am so proud of him.

Well, I had better be off now.
