Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone~
The kids and I went to my mom's Christmas Eve in spite of the snow. Unfortunately, I drove home in a blizzard and it was the scariest drive of my life. I had to have the kids looking out open windows to see if I was on the road.... Thankfully, I made it home and dropped them off at their dad's on the way. Then, dropped by Navy guy's to bring him some medicine and made my way home again. Never have I been so grateful to be home alone snuggled in my bed with my TV remote and laptop! The roads were apparently littered with abandoned cars the next day. They had to close down the major highways until they were able to get those cars out of there.

Christmas evening, I once again braved the roads with the kiddos to go to my brother's. I only did it for my son's sake but we had a good time. The roads were still scary but at least I could see!

My doggies have been enjoying the snow... more so when it was fresh. The puppy was so cute romping around in it with Cookie. I wish I had a camera to take their picture.

Anyhoo, hope you are all well~!

It was a rough weekend. I was feeling pretty blue to begin with--grieving the loss of my little family which has shattered to pieces, leaving just me and my son under one roof. Dunno what precipitated that pity party, but it was going on since Thursday. Friday, Son's father didn't call, text, or come to pick him up. Son was not inclined to make the effort either. I guess he figures that if his father wants him, he'd initiate. Saturday morning was particularly rough because Son had Saturday School---kind of like detention on Saturday, for being tardy to class after PE. Moving fast is not his strong suit ever. Plus, he doesn't wake up and get going easily either. Basically, Saturday was filled with Son's fussing, homework, tears, slamming of doors,and lot's of I-hate-you's. Yeah, pretty miserable all the way around. I think maybe it was a reaction to how he feels about what's happening with his dad. OR not happening. It culminated in Son sobbing in hi

Keystone Cops R US

Okay, we just did a Keystone Cops routine . I went in, puppies ran out. English bulldog from next door chased puppies around the yard. I chased English bulldog who was chasing the puppies around the yard, into my house where I chased them all aroun d again until they all ran back outside. Got puppies back in and English bulldog out. Opened the door to call my son in, and they were off!!!!! Did it all again, but this time, the neighbor lady and her daughter chased the bulldog who was chasing the puppies and I chased her and her daughter who were chasing the puppies, back into my house again. Whew, I'm tired!

X's birthday, X in law birthdays... what should I do

Oh, I almost forgot. I have a question for you all. My X's mother's birthday just passed. His father's birthday is in a week or so and his birthday a bit after. I thought about having the kids call their Oma (grandma) to wish happy birthday but opted not to. I think he should be responsible for that. What do I do about this and/or his upcoming birthday? Do I have the kids do something? He didn't bother for me last year when we were separated..... Ideas anyone?
