Telling me as I am preparing to go to bed Friday night that your ex, one of her daughters from a previous marriage, plus her (XSD) husband, and their 2 children are going to stop by 'sometime Saturday', is not the way to ensure I have a good night's sleep!

Saturday's are grocery shopping, laundry, gardening day, not spit polish, whip together an impressive meal and dress in something other than sweats day!

It is now 6pm, they stopped by for about 10 minutes, went for a tour of the town, just called to say they would be eating out (after I have the meal prepared including 2 desserts). I encouraged them to return here for coffee (if only to get the Desserts out of the house - DH has a sweet tooth), and they say, well we really don't drink coffee. But, we will see how the highway is and how we feel after dinner.

DH says to me, "See, all the fuss for nothing". If it wasn't that I have a great sense of humor, I'd deck him!

Thank God you DO have sense of humor or you might've been asking for help digging the hole in the backyard big enough for his body instead!!! I think I'd a killed him! AND if you hadn't gone to all the trouble you KNOW they'd have shown up and camped out in your living room all day!! LOL!

Get some sleep tonight!

And now your DH has one more thing to add to the list of why you are his DW and she is his EX!!!

Sorry it was a rush around day on a day you didn't need it---but like has been pointed out, if you hadn't.....they without a doubt would have been there!!!

Anyone at work having a birthday you could take the desserts for? OR send them to work with DH!!!

One dessert is already wrapped in plastic, and foil, and placed in a cookie tin at the back of the freezer; the other..well, perhaps I'll invite my brother and his boys over for Sunday dinner - the two teenage boys could decimate a herd of cattle, me thinks! Good gracious, how on earth can anyone afford to feed growing 6' boys???

Why is it that one of the main attractions to DH - his calm, not-everything-is-that-important demeanor - can sometimes be SOO irritating? Good thing that as I love to clean, the house is usually clean, but still with 3 cats, the tumblin' tumbleweeds need to be attacked before any company crosses the threshold!

LOL That is one thing I don't have to worry about is Ex's. Thank goodness, but best bit is, and you can quote me on this one, I am so not jealous over any of his ex's (GF's not EW, I am his first/last/only marriage) Cause in the end, I married him, they didn't and we share the pillows and blankets not them. BWAHAHAHA

Besides the only ex that ever mattered (well two of them) are married with kids now and we are all friends as couples not him and them or me and them .. its all US ... heheh

plus her (XSD) husband

Tap, what is "XSD"?
