Ain't Life Grand?2003-04-26 - 4:11 p.m. So Easter morning on my way to my mom's house I get a call from Kurt saying that he can't make it. The boys both wanted him to stay home. No, I wasn't thrilled, but I understood. Easter was uneventful. I wasn't feeling so well and ended up napping for a couple hours at mom's after dinner. Kurt came over Monday after work. I flew home after work, started dinner, then Kurt got here and we went grocery shopping. I'm pretty sure we have more fun shopping than anyone out there. We started at Butera where he was serenading me in the produce section with a Van Morrison song, then we moved to Dominick's where we had the absolute dumbest deli chick on the face of the earth. And slow. Did I mention slow? So anyway, we finally made it home, had dinner, watched tv for a while, and then I woke him up and sent him home. I don't think anyone falls asleep in front of a tv quicker than my Bunn. Wednesday was sleep-over night. I had an appointment with Cam's counselor after work, and Bunn was here starting dinner. When I walked in the house, the grill was going, there were fresh flowers on the kitchen table in a really cool purple water pitcher, and Bunn handed me a strawberry daquiri. He's awesome. He went shopping for everything after work, had a salad all made and in the fridge, had italian sausage ready to go on the grill, and the kitchen was clean! I've had guys cook for me before, but not many of them actually clean up after themselves as they go. So needless to say, we had a great night. Thursday was "take your kids to work day" though so he had to get up at 3:30 in order to drive back home and pick up the kids for work. Poor guy... Sounded like they all had fun spending the day together though. I used to bring Cam with me, but he's since grown bored with it all. My company does a very structured day, and he's a little old for their "activities" now. He's got no interest, so it was a regular school day for him. Nothing much went on on Thursday. Cam was supposed to be grounded for not wearing his retainer, but I forgot about it so he went out with his friends. I was sleepy and went to bed early. For some reason, I don't sleep very well when Bunn's here. Guess I'm not used to sharing the bed... Oh, plus I was a little flustered Thursday afternoon/evening. See, I finally got the word that I was closing on my mortgage refinance on Friday. Now mind you - the whole time this was going down, the refinance guy kept telling me I didn't have to bring anything to closing with me. Imagine my shock when I got the call Thursday afternoon telling me I needed a cashier's check for $1050. Friday afternoon at the 1 o'clock closing. I scrambled and ended up taking a cash advance from my Discover Card, but that meant getting to the bank, etc... and I ended up having to blow off my appointment for my pre-admission work at the convenient care place. Did I tell y'all that I'm having a little surgical "procedure" done next Friday? It's no big deal - just a D&C in hopes of fixing all the period probs I've been having lately. Bunn's taking the day off work so he can take me to the hospital in the morning and then stay with me that night. So that brings us to yesterday. Friday was another sleep-over night for us. We made fajitas and margaritas last night. We had a ball. We have the best time cooking together, and I don't think they sucked or anything because Cam sure ate his fair share. It was a great evening. Kurt left this morning around 8ish to make it home for Brian's 9:00 baseball game. Ya remember how I told you that he and the soon-to-be ex had talked and worked out a deal so they could both have nights away from home? I don't think we're going to have many more nights to ourselves. She's such a cunt. Kurt found out from his son this morning that the soon-to-be ex went out last night and didn't show up until 5 o'clock this morning. Un-fucking-believable. How the hell do you leave your kids home alone all night and live with yourself? I don't get it. Now admittedly, I'm not going to win Mother of the Fucking Year anytime soon, but c'mon... So tonight is the soon-to-be ex's night out (as if they all aren't...). Kurt and I are taking the boys out for dinner to a place that also has pool and darts and stuff. I tried to get Cam to come with, but at 15, he seems to think he's just too cool to spend a Saturday night out with mom. I'm thinking I'm going to force him into a little mother/son time tomorrow though. I'll bribe him with Lonestar and a movie perhaps... Hasta! Looking back... Just Pix - 2005-02-08
