It's Not Over?

Lord help me. DH just now told me SDs are not returning to BM tomorrow morning but Thursday afternoon. You know how a little bubble of relief is put around you waiting to come home to a quiet and clean house and then it bursts? Sigh. I told DH that if the schedule changes please let me know. Jeez. He did say he's planning on taking SDs somewhere and I suspect it's skiing (they have no clothes for it so have fun shopping for one time use winter athletic wear DH). He's afraid to tell me this I think, as it's a total Disney Dad move to placate SD13s incessant asking to do it.

I managed to help arrange a play day for SD10 at her friends house today and SD13 and DH are going to SD13's friends home for an after holiday party this afternoon, which I turned down the invite to (DH wants me to go but I see that SD13 is happy I'm not) as soon as it was suggested. I'm going to go for a long walk, followed by a yoga class in town and then take myself out to dinner.

...and now scheduling a facial...

Yes I think so now that I've arranged today for myself. I go back to work tomorrow which I'm looking forward to. DH is not taking them skiing! But he's taking them to a hotel with a pool - great! That is a little gift to me.

In the meantime I have some things to do and a plan to start repainting our bathroom.

I completely understand.

Have SD16 and SS18 from 12/25 - 1/2. 10 freaking days. I am already climbing the walls and don't know how I'm going to make it another week. I'm trying to work and they just lounge around the house doing nothing and making messes. TV has been on non-stop. And when they aren't watching hours of Harry Potter or Spongebob (yes...these skids are that immature) they are literally fighting with each other (again...at 16 and 18. immature.)

Honestly, the 18-year-old boy starts most of the arguments and is the worst, which is even more annoying because I'm not sure why he's still coming over. He quit coming for visitation a few months ago...and then started our last weekend with no warning. So here I was thinking I only had to deal with one skid...and he drives SD16 over and just stays for the whole weekend. And now he's staying again for the full 10-day break. REALLY??? Please God quit coming over already.
