My Life

Their Mom's turn....

It's always something around here. Their mom called last night and wanted to talk about this weekends visit. I guess, as of now, unless I hear differently, and she was supposed to call this morning and didn't, there will be no visit for the twins this weekend. It's amazing how she can do what's convenient for her.

We have a wedding, my daughter's best friend, this Saturday at 4:30, and mom and I had talked about having the twinkies back early on Sat. so they could go with us to the wedding. Then last night she calls and says she doesn't think she'll get them, just the older two, because of the wedding, like she's making it easier for me, because older sis has a ballgame Fri. night, (that she doesn't want to have to take the twins too because that could be difficult for her), and now, to make her decision easier, because Steven has been sick, and maybe he should stay home so I can take care of him and it won't interupt her plans.

And who gets to tell the twins this news that is going to upset them? Oh, me of course, probably why she didn't call this morning like she said she would. Bay already knows, she sked this morning before Steven got out of bed, and while she pouted a little she seems fine about it. Steven hasn't asked me about it yet, but he will, and then I will have to tell him, and then he'll be mad, and I'll have to handle it.

They are going back to school today. Hurrah! And except for a few minor household chores I plan to take it easy. After yesterday I deserve a rest.

Plans

Perhaps it would be a good idea to not tell the twins about their "plans" until they are actually getting ready to happen. With both their mother & father's track records they are just going to be let down repeatedly over the years. Maybe it would just be best that they never know when mom or dad is supposed to get them, so they won't get let down when they back out.

The good news for you is.,....this sure isn't looking good for her to try to get custody!

Hope things go well with the wedding & that Steven is getting better.

Taking advantage

I was hoping to leave a comment with good advice....but I'm stumped. Its too bad there are mom like her out there that only care about themselves. But at least there are some like you too to balance it out.
