Date night NYE - will now just be SS10, OH and myself.

It would have actually been better to have BOTH of them.

FML WHY ME!

To be fair and give BM credit, when OH told her he was the only manager at work this week and wouldn't be able to pick them up til very late (probably about half 7 at the earliest) she did the right thing and tried to find other people to take them, SD is now having a sleepover with friends, no luck getting shot of SS though, so we have just him.

GREAT.

He will be stuck up OH's butt all night, at least with the two of them I could have had OH's attention during the fireworks and kissing part! Now it will be all about making sure ss is having fun.

FML.

And a Happy New Year to you all.

The original plan was for us to grab fish and chips and eat them on the beach, then wander the NYE crowds and watch the fireworks in the city at midnight. So we would be out for a good 5 hours (we live an hour away from beach/city)

When it all went down about her working etc the plan changed - no more romantic beach picnic, we are having hot dogs at home and heading out about 10pm to wander the crowds and watch the fireworks at midnight. So, about 4 hours.

And no, OH will not leave either of them alone at night (not that late) for that long. If it was earlier and we were close by then maybe 2 hours tops.

Oh well.

I made him promise to kiss me first LOL

Is it too late to find a babysitter? Yeah, your DH will pay top dollar for it but he shouldn't have agreed to take skid on BM's night after making plans with you. Or you could try calling friends to find one who already has a sitter, and ask if you can piggyback on that and pay half the sitter fees. (But make sure they ask the sitter, too, because I used to HATE when my customers' friends would dump their kids off too and they'd try to pay me the same to watch twice as many kids!)

Well.

Update.

OH strolled in the door at half past 8 with only ss in tow.

SS limped in with great theatrics and drama.

He sprained his ankle.

So. WE stayed home because he couldn't manage the walk to see the fireworks.

Bah Humbug.

And a Happy New Year LOL
