Weekend Update

by The Momma

Slammed against a brick wall
So remember how I promised you I’d update you all on our weekend. Remember how I said it would be far less ranty than my previous post about the ex husband… well, this weekend we dealt with the ex wife. And she is a whole different species of cruel. So… a promise is a promise and I’m not going to talk about her because that would be a zillion times more ranty and complainy than my other post… instead just the good stuff from the weekend.

My boys went to the ex’s a day early because their uncle was coming home after being gone two years and they were all going to go meet him at the airport. So hubby and I had a night without any kids, which is kinda really nice every once in a while. So Friday I started my new job and fingers crossed I think it will be an okay one. It was really weird going to work after being an at home mom for the past nine years. Really really weird.

My husband went to pick up his kids Friday afternoon and again only two out of the four came, but we wanted to make the best of it so we rented a movie, Outlaw Trail, and ordered pizza. Saturday we took the kids to town because my oldest stepson needed new pants for church. So we shopped around a bit and then we took them to a matinee showing of Bee Movie. After the movie we took them to visit my in-laws.

Sunday we went to church, came home and got lunch and then we had to drive them back to their mother’s house, which is when all the irritating shit hit the fan. I swear that woman!!!!

Anyway…. I love spending time with my stepkids because they are so sweet and it is so great to see how my husband is with them.
