THIS HAS BEEN A WEEK FROM HELL (you would think it was Christmas in my house!) I put up with SD44, her hubby, and 2 kids for 7 long ass days! Apparently, they didn’t want to stay at the Golden Egg’s house because the Golden Egg is apparently interfering with all the SKs marriages, i.e., giving marriage advice (NO WAY!), so DH said they could stay here.

Days 1, 2, and 3 went great! But once SD44 went over the Golden Egg’s house, she came back a total bitch, her hubby was NOT happy, and the 2 kids were all sugared up. ME – each day I iced my foot, drank beer, watched TV, while DH entertained them working towards the Daddy of the Year Award.

Then on Thursday more SKs and their families came over and ate and drank. And during the entire 5 hours they were here, my house got destroyed compliments of the Gkids, DH played “waiter” to everyone’s needs; and they all talked about “the good ole days about mommy and daddy this and that”.

ME – I iced my foot, drank beer, and watched TV. The SKs kept telling the GKids to go watch cartoons in the room where I was at but since I was iced up and had control of the remote, we watched Dr. Phil, Ellen, Food Network, and to get their screaming asses out of the room, I turned on Sci-Fi and watched Dracula for awhile. (I know I was a bitch, but those idiots made me that way!)

So Friday morning the plan was DH was going to drive me to work and pick me up around noon. Then I overheard SD44 ask DH if SHE could borrow MY car to do some errands when he came home from dropping me off! NO ONE ASKED ME!!!

So while they went out to feed animals (we live on a farm), I scrambled so damn fast (reminder you I’m just learning to walk again since I just got my foot cast off!) to get my stuff ready and decided I was going to drive myself to work (doctor said I can drive but start off slow). DH came running down the driveway towards me and said “what are you doing?” and I said “I’m going to work”, I gave him a kiss, and off I went. Talk about feeling proud of an accomplishment!!! Talk about 2 stupid people standing in my driveway realizing I caught them trying to pull one over on me!

I purposely stayed at work later than normal thinking that when I went home they would be gone, but I was wrong; they had a later flight. DH was really frazzled and ready to explode, but I smiled and played the happy wife. Trust me, it was so hard - the house was a disaster and the GK were hyper on sugar.

Then I found the surprise in the kitchen! SD44 and her family went to visit the Golden Egg the night before. Well, the Golden Egg bought SD44 a cake. SD44 brought back the unfinished cake to my house and said “DH/Dad, mom wanted me to bring this over to you!” Needless to say, I threw the cake went into the wood stove.

It took DH seven (7) days to finally realize that he took a week off of work to kiss their ass, feed and entertain them; our dishwasher ran 3 times per day; our washer and dryer ran non-stop, and he is so tired of cleaning up after all of them that he is ready to hire a housekeeper. The $300 groceries I bought the week before (BEFORE I knew they were coming!) are gone.

So last night I called my favorite brother-in-law and asked him to pick up DH and take him to the nephew’s wedding today so I can have peace and quiet even if it’s just for a few hours; he said yes. DH was pissed but I don’t care. So this morning DH cleaned house, cooked breakfast, and tried to apologize over and over. And I just smiled and said kiss my ass!

His wonderful golden eggs just proved to me that I would NEVER EVER date a man that had kids!

Thanks for letting me vent!
