Now s kid weekend is about to start,
please dear God help me not fall apart.
Help me remember YSS is here for three days,
and to be thankful it's not always.
May the whining and drama be kept small,
and I'll keep trying hard not to bawl.
Two weekends a month may not seem like a lot,
but the aftermath that follows is causing my marriage to rot.
Someday I hope dh will wake up and see,
just how manipulative that boy can be.
But until that time comes or I can stand no more,
I'll be thankful I have to go to work and shut the front door.
