I made it to a much needed two days off! Tonight had a couple of beers and threw some darts. Tomorrow it's time to catch up on a shit ton of nitty-gritty. And then Sunday--absolutely nothing until I pick up Teslet.

Tonight--isn't it obvious?
Of course, wine was included.
Tomorrow: Bodypump, a little shopping and maybe a movie. We're expecting t-storms, so the beach is probably out.
Sunday: Wide open; maybe I'll find a really cool place for brunch.

Tonight? Hanging at home with the kids which is the norm. No weekends with their dad. ugh I wish he had them every other weekend so I can get some things done, sleep, get me time and so they can see him. Oh well.
DD4 and DS4 have gymnastics tomorrow late morning then we're going to lunch then back to the gym for some open gym time for them to have fun. After, we're leaving town to spend time with my SO for the rest of the weekend. The kids really enjoy seeing him too.
Maybe take the kids ice skating if it's available this weekend.

For me.....mostly recovering from the week. I fell asleep on the couch at 7:00 tonight & just woke up. I hope that doesn't mean a sleepless night!!!
I hope to be able to get away to see my grandson's out-of-town baseball game tomorrow. It's only 80 miles away.....but it depends on how the parents are doing and if my daughter and I dare be that far away at the same time. Other than that....I need some downtime. Badly.
Sometimes the hardest part of finally seeing through someone is accepting what you see...

Let's see, working Sat then doing my to-do list at home. Sunday, begin packing for a 2 day mini Vaca with all 5 (yes, all 5) of my Lads and Lasses
we are going to Great Wolf Lodge again this year to celebrate the youngest Lad's birthday. I pay for it each year as a combined Birthday and Christmas gift to all of the kids. I wish I could have done these things for all of them when they were younger but I am grateful I can do it now. Even on my limited income

Friday - hung out at home with the kiddos
Saturday - dropped off get well cards to my SIL to deliver to my dad. Easter egg hunt. Now, waiting for SO to get off work and save me from these over-energetic kids!!!
We're going to SO's parents' house for dinner.
Sunday - Walking with the kids in the entrance procession at mass, then teaching catechism class. Grabbing lunch (if time) and going to another Easter egg hunt. A kid in DS6's class is having a party, should be fun. Hopefully the evening is relaxing...I can't wait till the weather warms up and the kids can play outside again!

Finishing my taxes. Oy!
But it's actually not bad. I do not have to try to get ex to provide information anymore. It was like pulling teeth to get him to help with filing.
Now, It's just me, and that's great!

No plans today. I went for a drive and ended up at the outlets. I didn't buy anything for myself, but did pick up a few things for my future great-nephew.
Tomorrow I'm going to a food truck round up in the city. Wish it would last long enough for me to get something from each truck. Oh well!
At some point I need to check papers and such for the upcoming week.

Yesterday I made huge progress on the division of property. I went and had MY shed hauled off my STBXWH's yard and dropped in mine, 30 miles away. His crap is still heaped in his patio, where he put it when I told him he better empty the damn thing before I did.
Today I am going to putter about my yard, work on the shed foundation, water my plants, etc. The weather is PERFECT and I'm gonna be outside with my dog all day. I predict beer sometime after 1:00pm

I spent four hours showing off "my" zoo (I live 2 blocks from the zoo and spend an embarrassing amount of time there for a woman without children) yesterday, then came home, quickly changed and met some girl friends for late dinner at an overpriced french place, then to a booze cruise to see the monuments lit up (which was terribly falsly advertised - we were expecting a big boat with a dj and bartenders and food.... it was a tiny fishing boat with dirty plastic windows and lawn furniture. They were playing the radio over loud speakers, and there was an old guy with a half ass bar), and then out clubbing.
Funny story about clubbing, I was that drunk girl who makes a fool of herself and creates awkward moments.
My friend was admiring a guy who was sitting at the bar (we were dancing) because he had a fedora on. He was engaged in conversation with another guy and would never have noticed. So what does Drunk Ama do? Dances over, bear hugs him from behind, and told him he needed to come dance with my friend because she thought he was cute. He was surprisingly nice about it and got up to come over and meet her.
I may have done the whole "fishing" dance move while he was walking over, reeling him in toward her.
Today I woke up with a massive hangover headache and just finally got up. I ate some toast 2 hours ago and went back to sleep feeling nauseous. I've had so few hangovers, I'm really bad at them. Supposed to have had brunch with a friend, but canceled.
Now to finish my homework!

Ugh.
I'm working A LOT and then I also get the pleasure of clearing about a foot of snow off my driveway later today.

My daughter wanted me to check out a new grocery store in the area so that's what we did yesterday. I HATE shopping and so does she, but someone has to do it.
It was too crowded because it just opened, we don't like people
so we quickly checked it out and then left to shop at our normal grocery store. Decided to come back another day not on a weekend and not during peak hours. Looked nice though.
