I had no idea I hadn’t posted since Monday. Geez. I’m still standing (yeah yeah yeah!). When the boy’s here, things are just busier and I don’t have the time to post. I have time to read other blogs because it’s quicker and more interesting, though…
Not much new here at Cheesecake HQ. The boy is off on a weekend vacation with his mother, stepfather and half sisters. I think we pick him up tomorrow or Monday. I hope we pick him up Monday because I’m working Monday and that drive really puts a dent in my day if I get stuck going along. Plus, I’d rather stay home even if we’re supposed to get him Sunday.
We got home about 6 or 7 last night from taking him to his mother’s. It’s really annoying that when SHE wants him, we still have to take him. Like she doesn’t have a car or something. Hopefully we will meet her half way when they give him back to us. And she was PO’d because the check (you know, the CHECK…) didn’t arrive as usual. Weeelll, it’s not like she’s doing a lot of mothering to him in July anyway, and besides, we had him one whole week in June and we’ll have him until at least the 4th of August. Gene told me the theory behind this is that we don’t pay double child support in June, when we usually don’t have him at all. I think it’s a lot of BS – so 96 hours per month (that’s what 2 weekends is) of the boy time is worth that much $? And let’s not even get into the major hose job that caused this insanely high amount of support.
Anyway, today we have to:
Return movies to Blockbuster (the boy thought he grabbed them all – but The Jacket and Trauma were still wedged between the couch and the ottoman in the living room. It’s a good thing I vacuumed)
Pick up my car at the office (we took the rental to drop off the boy and left directly from my office)
Go to movies?
Eat breakfast?
Do laundry (usually a Sunday chore, but I’m trying to clear my Sunday schedule)
Clean guest bathroom
Eat lunch?
Drink!
So far, we have…
Ooh, done not a thing. Whoops.
