Summer so far...

Skids are at our house for the summer as of Friday, 5-31 and BM was sure happy to past them off because she texted DH that he could pick them up early if he wanted to and he did of course. When I get home DH asks me if I was going to the grocery store and I tell him yes I am but you need to give me some money so he did.

I asked the skids what they wanted and I told DH that he needs to tell them that this food has to last for a week and if they run out of junk food then they will have to wait for the next trip to the grocery store which is once a week. OSS was whining two days later because he ate all his junk food. I just sat there quiet and ignored him and DH told him that he will have to wait until this coming up weekend because he has already told him that we would only be buying junk food once a week.

This is the same kid that told BM that we were starving him so she showed up at our house unannounced with fast food and she was told that she needed to leave. Any way, I just am not paying attention to the drama that these kids try to cause. I was gone for most of the weekend and I will continue to be gone until the skids go back to BM's. MIL is coming on 6/13 and staying for a week so we will see what kind of drama unfolds when she is here.

Buy him a bag and tell him to go for it. Not the m/wave stuff. The old fashioned popping corn. At least he will be 'regular'.

That and fruit gummies (for my Crohnes Grand daughter) are al I keep in the house.

BM showed up with fast food because skid was starving? If she was seriously concerned she would have called for a welfare check or something, showing up with a happy meal is just "look at me I'm the better parent." 

My sympathy on having skids there plus MIL for a week.
