Things are hectic with ex moving out of town THIS Friday!! Thursday Andrew has to go to ExDH and get a bunch of the kids' furniture, beds, etc. In the meantime, we're still trying to get things re-re-organized in the basement to build a separate room and have to get a couple of heater ducts installed as well.
The kids are throwing a big party on Friday...well it's supposed to be at their dad's -- they invited all their friends (at his coaxing) to "help him put things in the truck"...hehe...he's never managed a group of 8 teens before !! Muwwwaaahhhhahaha (sorry that's mean!)
Ends up he 'bribed' them with pizza...then he asks Kelly "will two pizza's be enough for you and your friends?" -- She laughed -- and then called me....
So all of these friends are coming over here (since I get to provide transportation either home from ExDH for all of the teens who can't drive!)...Good thing we have two vans now and can carry up to 14 people!!
Now they tell me that they are treating it as a goodbye, good riddance party for Kenny (in my basement?!?)....
I figure it will keep their minds off of things. Neither are willing to admit it, but I think that they are feeling...what's the word?....Abandoned?? I mean their dad gave them less than 3 weeks notice he would be moving out of the state and out of their lives? Did he really believe that they would want to leave all their friends, school, siblings and go to another state with him in 18 days notice? We've had some lashing out times, but I really think they are stressing over it...
BUT I get to have my fun!! IF the weather is warm enough on Saturday morning, they get to go to the St. Patricks' Day parade...and they are all fine with that and looking forward to it....
Sounds like so much fun! I can't wait.
But Andrew is home and O time is around the corner so I'm leaving now! Be back sometime tomorrow to finish my bloggin'
