So, for the last month, we haven't seen the skids pretty much AT ALL. DH and BM changed their one night a week they're with us from Thursday to Friday because SS14 has to be at school so early and we do not live close to that school, so instead of waking up super early in the morning to get him there on Fridays, they're supposed to stay Friday nights instead. This has not happened one single time since this started, except on the EOW we have them. We're supposed to have them every Fri night, even on BM's weekends. Well, BM has constantly been making plans on her weekends since she has a new BF who's kids are friends with the skids, so we have yet to have them on any Friday nights on her weekends. Except our anniversary night, when she told DH that she planned to take them that night because of homecoming, but then tried to pawn them off on us the day before (I assume because her BF wanted to take her out), but we'd already made anniversary plans, so DH was like, no. Every weekend this month, they've had SOMETHING going on, including on our weekends (the in-laws took them camping), so it's been a month since they've been here. I. Was. LOVING. It. Well, now it's our weekend again, and I knew the pleasant feeling of having no children in the house would end eventually. Now is that time. Nothing has even really happened, it's just their very PRESENCE that irritates me. SS14's voice is on my last nerve because it's changing and he now sounds like a goose-call. He's been doing this thing of inhaling and going "waaaaa" while doing it, so he REALLY sounds like a goose when he does that. I'm surprised the migrating geese haven't been camping out on our lawn trying to mate with him yet. SS12 is just his usual ding-bat self, laziest, yet most entitled kid on earth. Can't wait until the weekend is over. I'm hoping that by the time I get back from the Broncos game tomorrow (that I'm going to with a friend and NOT DH since he wants to spend time with his semen demons for the last half of the day we have them), he'll have already taken them home. Then I can just have a pleasant evening.
