Sigh
OH, it is so nice to finally have a week where there is only one baseball game instead of five! The sigh in the title is one of relief...I really love watching the boys play baseball games but I was just simply wore out!!!
We are all doing good here...some better than others. S is doing really well, he has only one more game after the one today and unfortunately I am going to be working (but I will escape for a few hours for the game) so I am going to have to do some juggling for the transpo on this one. R got in trouble yesterday, his little girl-friend told him to hit another GIRL and he, not being one to ignore a girl he has a crush on, went right over and punched her. Needless to say I was pretty livid, he was grounded to his room for the night and only got to come out to eat dinner. I have tried very hard to hammer it into their heads that you NEVER, NEVER, NEVER hit a girl!! I don't care if people think I am being a non-feminist, but women should be protected by men and never hit. So I really gave him what-for and he was to go to school today and tell the little girl that told him to hit another girl that if she was going to tell him to do things that were wrong he cannot be her friend, and also appologize to the girl he hit. I hope this is the end of the issue, but we will continue to talk about it.
Work is good, they are changing my schedule next week, as I alluded to above, to 9-5:30....sucky but the shift I am going to be training on is usually12pm-8:30pm so I really can't complain! And it is doing microbiologyish stuff...yay...not so much with the chemistry and now with the micro!! woohoo! (sorry, let my inner geek slip out there)
Hubby is doing really well in training, he is still in the top part of his class. We are hammering out the details of the trip for August and I am going to take a dry run (yay) at it the first weekend of June...not sure what to tell the kids as I promised them that they would come with me the next time I went to visit hubby but I have realized that I really need to know ahead of time what is coming otherwise I willgo crazy trying to deal with them and a new situation...I have been given the idea of a business trip from my good friend D, but I am not a great fibber and I don't want to lie to them anyway...gonna have to mull this one over for a bit.
Our pool is acting up, it is still swimmable but the pool guy can't get enough suction to clean the bottom and sides with the vacuum. I know that we usually have to flush the system frequently and that may be what needs to be done...apparently it is not good for the filters to be flushed a lot though...but ugh...it is green on the sides!!
Wow, I really can ramble can't I!!! This was going to be a short post but look what happened! It got all big!
Well, I am going to go, I have kidlets to pick up and get ready for baseball!

You know what's weird? For some strange reason I was thinking about your pool last night. Don't ask me why. By the way, it's really nice to hear what's new with you and it wasn't rambly in the least.
I'm glad things are going good with work and that you get a little bit of a break this week.
I think you should just be honest with the kids. They will respect you so much more if you sit them down and tell them the truth. Acknowledge that you promised them, but that sometimes things don't work out the way that we want them to and it's ok to be disappointed about it. There's nothing that can replace taking them with you, but maybe you can come up with a way to make it up to them. Let them plan something fun so that they don't feel so "jipped".
Sorry about the situation with R. On the other hand, he'll make some woman a very pliable husband in the future. lol j/k
