I am house sitting for MIL so am not at home. Before leaving, I went over what SO needed to “treat” the Skids for & apparently, their brains were no shows yesterday.

Literally, every single thing they are SUPPOSED to do was forgotten, therefore, SO had to remind them, which in turn, turned to nagging because they weren’t listening. So the Skids got ZERO “treats” yesterday.

I’m staying at MIL’s until Saturday morning, so I can only assume that the Skids will continue to treat their father like crap until I return.

If I hear from SO that the Skids pull the same crap after school today, I won’t bother with updates, because I am guessing that the Skids think their father is a dumb ass who won’t give them Skittles, so why try anything (even though they have NO CLUE as to what they have to do to get them from me).

FUN FUN!

On a side note, I am enjoying the quiet of MIL’s home while studying for a Psychology test. Can’t complain Smile

When things settle down after little skids come I want to do this with SD10. I'm going to have to bring it to my SO delicately. Hes very sensitive over princess. Hopefully one of them will do something good so they see dad has treats too. Lol!!! Still loving this!!

Not holding my breath on that one. Historically speaking, the children turn into godless heathens when I'm gone for any period of time...funny how that works.

One day, I'll blog about the first weekend I was away from home & SO was CONVINCED the Skids had been perfect...apparently, per the Skids, they were NOT good, as in, AT ALL...SO THOUGHT they were because he wasn't paying attention.

Hmmm...nice.

Yes, I am finding that I LOVE house sitting! I only do it for MIL but she's the one that suggests it every time by telling SO "I'm sure Anywho needs a break from you & Skids...please ask her if she wants to stay for x days while I'm out."...she also begged me to join her Bunco club which has monthly game nights & they ALWAYS run really late...giving me another excuse NOT to go home (I sleep at her house & return home the following day). I love the fact that she's so considerate of me.
